She's My Sleeping Pill

Julia smiled faintly at the man before driving away to park her car as soon as the guard finished his inspection. Like any other day of her visit, she brought something again for Stefan\'s family. She would always make sure that she got some sweets with her for Cayenne.

The moment she stepped into the house, she saw the kids, but a deep frown immediately appeared on her face. "Where\'s Zeki?"

Stefan looked back and saw his cousin walking toward them with big and quick strides. "Why are you looking for Zeki? Do you need him for something?"

"No, nothing. I was just a little taken aback that the triplets aren\'t complete."

Stefan nodded his head in understanding without saying another word to his cousin. Julia didn\'t bother Stefan either. She just said hello to the kids before following the sound of Cayenne\'s voice to locate her.

Cayenne was almost done with her vlog when Julia came in. The latter decided to watch the footage next to Zaire while ignoring the stares that she was receiving from the others. She knew that deep in the hearts of many people, there were some who weren\'t able to forgive her for hurting Cayenne in the past – not that she cared about it.

Half an hour later, the vlog was finally wrapped up and Cayenne brought her guests to the front garden where they could have some snacks and just chat about random things which weren\'t part of the vlog. It was her way to lessen the tension among her guests and just make them feel comfortable around her before they would go back to their own homes.

She would always give gifts to her guests, too. This time, she got her guests $500 worth of grocery items which was excluded from the help that she will be giving to Jecil for her treatment. The Labrador family was really happy when they received the groceries from Cayenne.

"I brought something for snacks today as well," Julia said out of nowhere as her form of telling Cayenne that she was present at the moment. "I\'ll ask the helpers to help me bring them here."

Before Cayenne could say anything, Julia already left to get some help from the helpers. Of course, Julia had to be quick to make sure that Cayenne wouldn\'t be able to refuse her.

"Miss Yen, thank you so much for all your help. The payment for the treatment is more than enough already, but you still got us these groceries. You are really an angel sent to us," Jecil voiced out with tears pooling in her eyes. "I never thought that we would meet someone like you in our life."

"As long as you do good, you will be rewarded. That is the reason why we get this chance to meet each other. It\'s because you have been a good daughter and a good sister," Cayenne responded softly while caressing the young girl\'s head. "Once you\'re better, you can go back to school and make more friends. You can live your life to the fullest."

During this conversation, Julia came back with the helper. She was holding an eco-bag and inside this bag were different kinds of snacks. There were cookies, cakes, donuts, and homemade bread that she wanted Cayenne to try. To show her kindness to the Labrador family, she gave them a box of each dessert she brought.

"Thank you so much, ma\'am," Jun said while receiving the boxes of pastry.

"Just call me Miss Julia."

Naturally, Cayenne just allowed Julia to do whatever she wanted to do. In any case, it was just about giving food and Cayenne was confident that Julia wouldn\'t do anything like putting poison on the food because it wasn\'t her style.

Around 4:00 PM, the Labrador family bid their farewell already since they came from a far place, and it was better to leave early to avoid getting stuck in the traffic.

Callum and Cree sent them home along with their bodyguards since it was their job to bring the guests to the mansion and return them to their homes safely.

Zaire and Addie started putting their things away as well, getting ready to leave and go home.

"Zaire," Cayenne called out when the man was alone on the patio. "I\'m sorry for the insensitive words I said earlier. I didn\'t mean to open the topic about her father, but I forgot to erase it from my pointers."

"It\'s fine, Miss Yen. The vlog was already arranged before I even heard about my father, and besides, I\'m over it now."

"Really?" Cayenne retorted with a disbelieving expression on her face, but Zaire finally took off his dark glasses and smiled at her, so she felt a little convinced somehow. "I didn\'t grow up with my father, so I can understand the pain and disappointment, but like what my friends told me, you should focus on the people who care for you and not those who rejected you."

"Thank you, Miss Yen," Zaire mumbled happily. "Ever since I started working for you, my life has been great. I won\'t give up my work for you even if the whole world wants me to."

"I\'m glad to know that. It would be a huge blow to my vlogging work if I lose a capable videographer and editor like you."

Aziel and Jahzara were playing with Julia from time to time. Their auntie would come to them and chat about the random trivia she knew before, then after two or three minutes, she would leave them to go outside. Not long after, she would return to their side again to play.

The kids were really bothered by her behavior, but they could not voice out anything aside from the word Dada and the gibberish noises that would follow right after.

Julia had been asking the nanny where Zeki was, but the nanny said that the child went on a short trip. The nanny didn\'t mention who took the child and Julia didn\'t want to ask either because she would sound suspicious. She could only check the front yard and the back yard from time to time in order to find some clues about where Zeki went to.

At 4:30 PM, Dr. Eliezer Rivera arrived along with Nash and Rey. When he stepped out of the car, he was carrying Zeki who had fallen asleep.

Seeing that it was Dr. Rivera who came, Julia thought that Zeki got sick and an idea suddenly came into her mind.
