She's My Sleeping Pill

Cayenne wanted to roll her eyes upon seeing this woman but she remained calm and kept a straight face. She didn't even say a single word when she wanted to pass by her but Diana raised her leg in a swift motion and stomped on the wall, blocking Cayenne's way to go out of the bathroom.

"Cousin, why won't you say 'hi' to me? That's rude, you know." Diana stated while crossing her arms over her chest, looking down at Cayenne with a smirk on her face.

"Cousin, huh? Who's that? Me? For a wealthy woman, you really are kind to call a poor person your cousin. I don't even know you." Cayenne replied with a smug face. "I have no intention and will never have the intention to call you family. I'm contented with the people I have around me and I have no need for monsters."

"Hey! Watch your mouth!" Diana slid her legs on the wall, wanting to give Cayenne a kick but she was surprised to see her fending her attack.

Cayenne had been learning a lot of things from Jillyanna and it's time to put these learnings into use. She blocked the kick using her arms and swing it back, making Diana stagger on her feet few steps back.

Ashamed that someone blocked her, and on top of that, it was Cayenne, who looked small and weak. Diana became angry and decided to kick her again but Cayenne sidestepped this time thus; Diana missed her again. With her other leg raised and the other one was on the ground, steady and strong, Cayenne smiled wickedly and used her bag, swinging it on the back of Diana's knees.

"How could you use a sneak attack on me?!"

"That's not a sneak attack, moron. In a life and death situation, someone needed to use all available resources."

"I'm not even having a life and death fight with you."

"Liar."

"I'm not lying!" Diana insisted while getting up from the floor.

Cayenne smirked and raised her eyebrow. "Did you really think I can't see the hatred in your eyes. You keep approaching me, calling me cousin or telling people that we're family but in truth, you don't want me to become part of your family. You don't want me to go back. And I have no intention of going back, either."

"But grandpa wants me to take you back."

"Why?"

"He wants the earrings back? He wanted to verify that you are aunt Amethyst's daughter."

"Once the class starts, I'll give the earrings to you. While waiting don't ever show your face in front of me."

"He wants you to go back with the earrings."

"Do you want to get the earrings or do you want us to keep fighting? Let me tell you, if I get really angry, someone will kill you despite us being blood related and I don't care if that happens."

Diana looked at Cayenne and lowered her head. "Fine. I'll wait for you to give me the earrings. But don't blame me if grandpa will send someone else to take you back."

"Sure. I'll welcome him in my husband's territory."

Cayenne left after that without turning back. Without knowing, another woman was inside one of the cubicles. She was the woman who was assigned to keep Cayenne safe. She really wanted to go out and help her but she found out that Cayenne had the advantage this time. So, she looked at them, waiting for opportunity to help. However, until the end, Cayenne didn't lose her composure and she was smart as well.

'She's indeed deserving of being master's student.' The woman thought.

When Diana left, she also went out of the cubicle to look for Cayenne. She walks really fast and her eyes scanned her surrounding, not missing a single person to observe.

Cayenne continued to buy the appliances and left the mall right after that. Earlier, the bodyguards didn't know what has happened because they couldn't go to the women's bathroom. They had to stay few meters away from the place. Since Cayenne didn't ask for help, they couldn't come either.

Also, Cayenne didn't really want to shout for help. She knew that Diana wouldn't really hurt her that badly because she needed her.

"Let's go to my husband's company. I want to see him."

Hearing this from the monitor, Stefan raised his head and smiled but because Cayenne turned off the pen when she went to the comfort room earlier, Stefan had no idea of what has happened. Cayenne only turned it back on when she was back at the appliance store with the bodyguards.

Stefan wrapped up his work and went out of his office. "Boss, are you going out?"

"Nope. I'm waiting for my wife here."

Elena and Tristan looked at each other before turning their heads away and went back to their works. 'He can wait for her inside his office but he still came out to welcome her. Boss is a wife slave.' Elena thought to herself while working.

Few minutes later, Cayenne came with the bodyguards following her. She found Stefan sitting leisurely at the lobby with his legs crossed. "Hubby." Cayenne ignored manners and ran to his arms. "I missed you."

"That's good to know."

"Huh? That's not the response I want to hear from you." Cayenne pushed him a little away from her and lightly punched his chest. "You're being hateful."

"I miss you, too." Stefan muttered as he pulled her closer to him. He kissed her temple and led her inside his office. "So, what upsets you this time?"

"If my anyone from the Rule family comes to take me away, do your best to keep me safe."

Stefan's face darkened and cruelty flashed in his eyes. "Yes, my dear wife. Your safety and life will always be my priority."

Cayenne clung to him like a child. She needed to recharge herself and erase those negative emotions she felt; and she can only do it by staying beside him.

Stefan cuddled with her on the couch, comforting her silently. "I'll buy some desserts for you. What do you want?"

"I want five different flavor of cake, donuts and two different flavors of ice cream. I also want …" Cayenne gave him a list of foods she likes to eat, making Stefan smile tenderly at her.
