She's My Sleeping Pill

As usual, Cayenne wouldn't host a party without any games. Given that there were many children came to the party, she made sure that they get to enjoy it and bring home some adorable stuff that they can use daily or display in their room.

The first game was a message relay. The first person on the line gets to read the message and pass it to her teammates until it reaches the last person. The last person would be the one to say it in a loud voice and whichever group said it correctly first would win.

To everyone's surprise, Ethan and Jade chose to stay in different groups.

They even gave a challenging look to each other.

"Hoho! This is fun," Luiz commented with a teasing smile on his lips. He even wiggled his eyebrows at Jade which got him a cute pout. "You can do it, Jade!"

Jade's teammates were random kids that the emcee arranged to make it fair for the other little kids. Of course, they also wanted to see a bit of competition from the two genius kids that got admitted to Trine Elite University at a very young age.

"Alright. Let's start!" The first two kids approached the host and read the message from a piece of paper. They memorized it a few times while waiting for the 'go' signal and when the timer started, they ran back to the line and began whispering the message.

Jade waited anxiously at the back.

On the other hand, Ethan had his hand in his pockets as he stood calmly with eyes focused on the people in front of him.

"Ethan! Ethan! I got the message," a little girl came to Ethan and leaned over to whisper. He wasn't very familiar to her but given that he got acquainted with the Dumrique and the Madrigal family, he knew that there will be chances that he would see this little girl in the future.

He put a little distance between them.

"I got it," he said even though the little girl wasn't finished saying the message yet.

"As expected of a genius. I'm not done yet, but you know the rest, already," responded the little girl with obvious admiration in her eyes.

Ethan didn't comment on it. He looked towards Jade who was still waiting for her teammate to pass the message. "I'll win this round." Continue your adventure with m|v-l'e -NovelBin.net

Ethan walked up to the host and said the message out loud. His teammates cheered as they won but his eyes were on Jade who seemed a bit down for losing the game.

"Next!"

The host assigned the kids on different groups again before starting the next game.

Out of ten games, Jade won four and Ethan won six. Seeing the four prizes in her hands, she was no longer disappointed.

She put the prizes inside her bag and went to play with other kids again. She was so full of energy that her nannies were having a hard time matching her pace.

In the end, Top, Travis' most trusted bodyguard, looked after her safety.

When everyone went back to whatever they were doing, Ethan approached Jade who was speaking to Chloe, the youngest child in Justin's family.

"Here," he handed all her prizes to her and Jade received it as if it was the most natural thing to do. "Keep them."

"Hn. I will."

Ethan thought that everything was going smoothly, but then he felt a dangerous glare aimed at him.

He looked around to see if anyone was watching him. The first person that came to mind was Travis. However, he was busy chatting with another businessman.

[I must be over thinking.]

After the game, the emcee gave the guests a few minutes to settle down before moving on to the next program.

MC: "So, since our kids had their fill of fun with the games and the food, it is now time for the adults showcase their talents."

"You prepared something for the adults as well?" Stefan asked his wife whose attention was fully occupied with the triplets.

"I did."

"Well... that's something," Stefan had no other words to express. He didn't expect it.

Cayenne just grinned at him. He had no idea what she planned for the party and as long as she was having fun, Stefan had nothing to complain.

MC: "The first game that we have is pocky-eating contest. We will have five pairs of couples or "who-knows-they'll-become-couples", you don't know what lies ahead. Anyway, I have ten sticks of pocky here. Each pair gets two and they have to eat it with their hands tied behind them. Meaning, they can only use their mouth. The first to finish it will win the game."

"Let me choose the five pairs!" Kyle expressed and even raised his hand to volunteer.

MC: "Alright. We have sir Kyle to pick the five pairs. Please choose five random papers and read the names written on it."

"Gotcha!" Kyle said cheerfully and choose five small pieces of papers. "The first one is ..." he slowly unfolded it while all the couples around waited to hear their names come out of his mouth. "Uhh..."

The emcee laughed so hard when he saw the names and gave Kyle a gentle pat on his shoulder.

What are the chances of picking up his own name?

MC: "The first pair is Kyle and Kath."

Kath already expected it when she saw Kyle paused earlier. She didn't really know whether to laugh or cry at his bad luck.

MC: "The fifth pair is Elia and Top."

Elia's eyes widened in surprise when she heard her name being called. At first, she thought she was just hearing things but then, the emcee strode towards her and reached out for her hand.

[Are they trying to matchmake me with someone?] She asked herself with a helpless sigh. Ever since the time she helped Cayenne rescue her uncle and auntie, even when she refused to acknowledge them as her family; she still tried to communicate with Elia from time to time.

Xian still tried to get in touch with her, hoping to win her heart again but her heart had gone cold. She didn't want to fall in love again.

"I'll be in your care," she told Top with a faint smile.

"I apologize in behalf of Miss Yen's kind of fun," Top responded and bowed. "Rest assured, I won't take advantage of you."

"But you can take advantage of him," Luiz teased and the crowd erupted in laughter.
