She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 317 - SWEETS SO SWEET

After lunch, Sabrina left Cayenne's home in order to buy some souvenirs at the mall in the city. She still needed to pack her things and leave early later to make sure that she won't be late for her flight.

On the other hand, Stefan and Cayenne also left home for work in the afternoon.

"Good afternoon, sir."

"Good afternoon, ma'am."

The employees greeted them when they saw Cayenne and Stefan walking at the lobby towards the president's private lift. Chris has prepared the documents that Stefan needed and made sure that everyone was doing their job properly.

Cayenne was still working on the documents that needed to be translated for Stefan's proposal overseas. Although she's given a month to finish all of it, she still tried her best to finish it before the deadline.

As soon as they got inside his office, the two of them busied themselves with work and would sometimes take a break to flirt with each other.? A day couldn't pass without them flirting.

Meanwhile, Arthur was sitting in his car, eating some takeout foods while watching the building that Stefan owned. He was following them since earlier, thinking how he can continue his plan without tipping off Stefan and his men. During his observation in Cayenne's property, he noticed that there were men hiding at the forest area, surveying the property for security purposes. He knew that if he take actions in her property, he'd be dead in the hands of Stefan's men before he can do something. Thus, he decided to make his plan work outside of her property. There's a higher chance of success if he's outside her property.

While he was waiting for Cayenne and Stefan to come out, he wasn't very idle either. He investigated the upcoming events that she might attend and one of those was Jade's graduation which will be on Friday. There's also a wedding next month that she will be attending with Stefan. If he won't be successful this Friday, there's no need to worry because there's next month.

He wasn't planning to involve Jillyanna's child with his plan but he's going to use the event as a way to get Cayenne back.

Although Cayenne knew that someone was helping them secretly when it comes to exposing Arthur, she still didn't lower her guard. Stefan was the same.

In addition, Travis put one of his men to tail them and check for any possible danger around this couple. He didn't want his wife to be worried if something happens to Cayenne.

"Do you want to eat dinner outside tonight?" Stefan asked Cayenne while reading the documents in his hand.

"I want to eat dinner with my stepdad."

"Did you tell him already?"

"I'll be telling him."

"O-okay." Stefan didn't say anything anymore since his wife already has plans in mind.

Chris got inside and told Stefan about the meeting that was scheduled at three in the afternoon. It's about the new collaboration of another hotel that will be built in City D. The shareholders wanted to see the planned project in order to see if they can pitch a little money for investment.

"Do you want to join me in the meeting? You can do your work there." Stefan asked Cayenne again, not wanting to leave her side, not for even a moment.

Cayenne nodded her head in agreement, wanting to see how the meeting would be like. Although, she'd be working on her own beside him.

Stefan picked up the folder containing the documents she's working on as well as the laptop that she was using to type the translated version. The two of them went to the meeting room followed by Chris who was holding his Ipad.

When they arrived, the shareholders, the investors as well as the chairman for the planned project were already inside the room. They were all seated properly while waiting for Stefan to come. What they didn't expect was that the lady boss would come along, too.

"Good afternoon, Mrs. Dumrique." the shareholders greeted her warmly and Cayenne returned the greeting with genuine smile on her lips.

"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. You don't have to mind my presence at all. I'll be working on another thing here." She sat on the chair beside Stefan which was supposedly a seat for Chris. Chris, on the other hand, sat on the couch behind them.

Stefan placed the documents in front of her before opening the laptop so that she can continue working.

'Is she the new secretary?'

'Is the president using his own wife to be his secretary?'

'The lady boss isn't just a sitting pretty flower vase. She's also someone who helps the boss with his works.'

They secretaries of the shareholders were thinking different things when they watched Cayenne working silently beside her husband. Just like she said, she'll be working on another thing and she really did. She didn't disturb the meeting and she didn't ask a lot of things as well. She was just minding her own little work.

The meeting started and the presentation of the new hotel was shown to the other shareholders. Cayenne just glanced at the project in front of her before continuing her work. From time to time, she would look at the presentation but she won't say anything.

Stefan was also quiet beside her but every few minutes, he'd take a look on the documents she's working to see her progress. "Do you to take a break? You've been working on it since earlier."

"I'm fine but I'm craving for milk tea."

"Okay. What brand do you like?"

"I like the milk tea sold in Clover Hotel. It's not so sweet."

"Alright. I already asked someone to buy milk tea for you." Stefan whispered closely but even so, the other employees still heard his words. They didn't see him make an order though.

Twenty minutes later, Chris went out of the meeting room and he wasn't out for long. Just after a minute, he came back with a matcha milk tea and a slice of triple chocolate cake.

"Lady boss, here's your milk tea and cake."

Right then and there, in front of everyone, Cayenne kissed Stefan's cheek happily. "Thank you, hubby."
