She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 711: TASK: IGNORING BRIAN

Flowers slowly bloomed under the warm light of the morning sun and Cayenne woke up with Stefan massaging her wrists.

“Morning love.” she greeted but Stefan didn’t respond but continued to rubbed the ointment on her skin. “What’s wrong?”

“I hurt you.”

The regret in his voice squeezed her heart because she knew how it will affect him from this day forward. She couldn’t really blame him that he was easily fooled with someone’s words because no matter how much he tried to have confidence in their relationship, Stefan was also insecure just like her.

They were both afraid that someone would come and ruin their relationship.

“Stefan, you have to remember two simple things. First, I love you and always will. Second, trust me no matter what happens as much as I trust you. We are both insecure about so many things and trivial matters might ruin our relationship but let’s remember to talk it out and be honest with it. If you are afraid that I’d leave you, you must know that I am also afraid that you would do the same thing.”

“I won’t leave you.” Stefan reiterated to make sure that she’d hear him clearly.

.....

“Likewise, honey. No one can make me leave your side.”

The day has just begun but she was still sore from what happened last. Although they fought the moment she got home, they ended up having a passionate bout of love session. It was really difficult to calm the raging hard on that Stefan had while watching her with handcuffs. In the end, they performed another kinky roleplay which was witnessed by the moon and stars.

When you think about it, their issue wasn’t really big and you can just forget about it after a day or two. Unfortunately, it wasn’t the same for Cayenne. She’ll always remember it and she’ll think of a way to retaliate.

Cayenne went to school like usual but when she met Brian at the parking space, she completely ignored him. She played blind in front of him and passed by as if she was seeing nothing but thin air.

During her vacant time, along with Faith and Noah, she stopped by the library to return some books that she borrowed. Coincidentally, she met Brian on his way to the faculty office.

Faith and Noah: “Good morning, sir.”

Cayenne: “Do you think the kids will like these gifts? I want to buy something that they can use for a long time and something that they can enjoy as well. I am not really great in choosing things so...

Cayenne chatted on and on as if she didn’t see anyone. When she knew she’d bump on him, she looked down on her phone and left everything to her bodyguards who asked everyone to move aside and that includes the professor. She pretended to be busy and since everyone knew that she was doing a lot of things for other people, they never suspected her attitude towards the professor.

In the afternoon, whether it was mere coincidence or not, she met Brian on her way to the Botanical Garden. As usual, she ignored him.

“Ms. Ardolf?” Brian called out when she was few meters away from him. “Are you avoiding me?”

Cayenne stopped walking and looked back to the person who caused Stefan to be emotionally miserable last night. “Sir? Did you call me for something?”

“Playing dumb?”

“Sorry?”

Brian wanted to scold her but since she continued to play dumb and act innocent in front of him, he just let her be and surrendered to fate. “I don’t know what has gotten into you or if it was just my imagination but I think you are avoiding me.”

“I don’t know what you are talking about.”

“Isn’t this about what Stefan and I talked yesterday?”

Looking around her, Cayenne didn’t see any other students and so, she crossed her arms on her chest and breathed heavily. “I don’t know what nonsense did you tell my husband but it’s all in vain. Nothing and no one can separate us. I don’t believe a single thing you said either.”

“Aren’t you being unfair?” Brian retorted as he took several steps forward but was stopped by Cayenne’s bodyguards. “Yenyen, how cruel can you be? All this time, I kept your promise in mind. Just because you have forgotten about it doesn’t mean it didn’t exist.”

“Look. You must have mistaken me for someone else. I don’t remember getting acquainted with someone named Brian.”

“And what if I show you the pieces of evidence I have?”

“What’s your point? And what do you want to get from doing all these?”

“I want you back in my life.”

The surroundings turned silent except for the rustles of bushes and leaves. The bodyguards looked at their mistress with side glances. They didn’t expect to witness this kind of event. Cayenne felt like kicking the man in front of her as well.

“Yenyen, give me one chance.”

“Sorry but I am married and I have no plans of breaking up with him. If I really promised such thing, I’d understand that you will not be able to forgive me. At the same time, I hope you can break yourself from this shackle of the past.”

“It’s easy for you to say.”

“Sir Brian, I am not worthy of you. You deserve someone better and I hope you will find that person soon.”

“No. I am not letting you go.”

“You’re an idiot!” Cayenne yelled in annoyance. She already tried her best to be nice to him but he still refused to back down. She really wanted to kick his ass. “Do whatever you want but expect nothing from me. My heart, my body, and my soul belong to my husband alone. You won’t get anything from me.”

Without waiting for his response, Cayenne turned around and continued walking without looking back.

Brian stood there, watching her back which was moving farther and farther from him. [We’ll have to proceed with the next plan.] He thought and called someone over the phone.

How to measure the strength of your relationship or bond? It’s through hardships and trials.

And before Stefan could properly get her hands in marriage and church wedding, they will have to go through a lot of things. Most of them will test their trust and loyalty. And some of them could break their bond slowly.
