She's My Sleeping Pill

829 RUMORS

During their conversation, Jade’s attention was suddenly caught by someone else, and she let go of her brother to see the person who just passed by outside Cayenne’s room.

“Nurse Belle!” Jade called out and the woman turned around to see the source of that voice calling her. “Nurse Belle, you are finally back to work?”

Belle smiled and bent down to level her eyes with the little girl in front of her. “I am currently working as Dr. Rivera’s assistant. Because of an accident, I cannot go back to my original work.”

“Dr. Rivera? You mean Uncle Eli, right?”

“Yeah. I’m working for Dr. Eliezer Rivera.”

“That’s cool. I’d be able to see you more often,” Jade expressed without realizing the discomfort that the woman was feeling right at this moment. She was just so happy to see that the nurse was doing fine after all the bad things that had happened to her.

“It’s good to see you around,” she checked her wristwatch and smiled apologetically, “Sadly, I must leave. I can’t dilly-dally with my work.”

“O-okay. Take care, Nurse Belle.”

“You do the same little Jade.”

.....

Jade was stunned upon hearing the nurse call her name. As far as she remembered, her mother told her that the nurse had lost her memories. [Did she recover her memories?] Jade thought to herself while watching the nurse leave.

After about a minute, she went back inside the hospital room and talked to her parents. Of course, everybody saw their interaction outside but didn’t say anything about it. The nurse was known to many because of her kindness to the children in the hospital. There was nothing wrong with Jade getting attached to her.

***

Born prematurely on February 14, 20xx, many speculations spread about Cayenne’s babies. Since no one showed videos or photos of the children which was very unusual for a family that loves to show off their relationship on social media, people spread the rumors that her children developed abnormalities worse, and someone spread the information that one of her children died.

Initially, when Luiz saw these rumors on the internet, he wanted to say something to them but David stopped him from doing so. He knew that Stefan and Cayenne wouldn’t want the young man’s work to be affected by it.

“It’s just a rumor. We won’t get anything by clarifying it. Don’t stoop low to the level of the person who spread it,” Stefan commented a few hours ago when he found out about this matter. Even though he said it, he actually asked Tristan to investigate this matter and get to the bottom of this. Yes, it was just a rumor. However, he won’t tolerate anyone who curses his children to die. They have to take responsibility for the words that came out of their mouths.

As the doting husband he was, he strictly forbid anyone from talking about this issue whenever his wife was around. He didn’t want her to be stressed even more.

“Hon, look at her. She’s touching my finger,” Cayenne squealed softly with a wide smile on her face. She was holding the tiny baby in her arms for today’s visit.

It’s been a week since she gave birth to them and Stefan only told her to visit the children twice a day – once in the morning and once in the afternoon. She wasn’t upset with this arrangement, though. She knew that Stefan was doing this for her sake and the children’s. Little as they were, in addition to them being premature, the doctor and nurses told them that developing children would be at high risk of getting sick. Stefan would never allow that to happen.

“The boys are awake now,” Stefan also commented when he noticed the little movements of his little boys. “They look lovely.”

“Can you hold the princess for me? I’ll try to hold the boys.”

“Don’t push yourself too hard.”

“Holding these little cupcakes is nothing. I’m very strong, you know.”

“I have no comment on that,” Stefan retorted with faint laughter accompanying his words. “Come here sweet bean.”

The nurse who constantly monitored the children couldn’t stop feeling envious while watching the couple interact. She has witnessed many couples acting all sweet and clingy but she never felt anything – not until this moment.

Cayenne held her children one after another for about ten minutes each. When her visiting time was up, she immediately returned them to the nurse who put the children back in their respective incubators.

Although she spent so little time with them every day, she was happy with every moment she shared with them. In addition, she can watch them from the outside.

Seeing the smile on her face, Stefan intertwined their fingers together and brought her hand to his lips. There was no need for words. Cayenne knew what he was feeling. The naked emotions in his eyes were more than enough for her to understand her husband.

The two of them returned to her hospital room and found Tristan sitting on the bench. He was holding a briefcase and a box of Cayenne’s favorite cake. She knew it was for her because Elena wasn’t really fond of matcha cake and she wasn’t in the hospital either. And surely, it wasn’t for her husband since Stefan didn’t like to eat sweets that much.

“I’m glad to see that you are doing well, Ms. Yen. The company employees had been looking forward to seeing you and your children come out to the public.”

“We’ll surely show them to the world as soon as we get the chance. Anyway, if you’re here for some business matter, I’ll get inside first.”

“Here!” Tristan stretched his hand and gave Cayenne the small box of cake. “Lena said that you are now allowed to eat sweets. She asked me to get you this.”

“That’s very sweet of her. Thank you. Send her my regards.”

As soon as Cayenne got inside her room, Stefan closed the door and faced his assistant. Tristan pulled out a stack of documents from his briefcase and handed them to Stefan. “I found out who spread the rumors already. They were just a bunch of unknown bloggers. They most likely wanted to become famous instantly which caused them to stir some trouble on the internet.”

“No one was behind any of them? I am really tired of keeping myself on guard every single day of my life.”

“I checked them twice. There wasn’t really anything suspicious.”

“I’ll trust your words,” Stefan commented as he read the information about the people who caused him some trouble. “Punish them as you deem fit for their behavior. I won’t say anything about it.”

Stefan didn’t want to be away from his wife which was the reason why he didn’t deal with these people personally. He just wanted to be a husband to her and a father to their developing children. Nothing else mattered to him at this moment.
