She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 380 - FAMILY DINNER I

When they arrived, the restaurant manager thought that it was only the ten or so people who will eat but he didn\'t expect that the all the bodyguards will also occupy lots of tables surrounding the family for their safety. Suddenly, the place was full.

"So, this is the classmate that you\'ve been telling us?" Stanley asked while looking towards Luiz. "Thank you for looking after my son in school."

"Ha? Ah, not at all. I didn\'t really do much." Luiz waved his hands while shaking his head from left to right.

"You helped me with my studies a lot of times. How can you say that you didn\'t do anything? I wouldn\'t pass if you didn\'t do anything."

"Oh. I was just doing what I can." Luiz muttered with embarrassed expression. "It was just a little something."

"Still, we want to thank you for helping him." Stanley smiled to Luiz. "When this uncle gets his first pay, I\'ll surely find a gift for you."

"You don\'t really have to do that." Luiz tried to refuse again but looking at Stanley\'s face, he knew that he couldn\'t wind this battle. He could only nod his head and smiled helplessly.

Everyone started to order their food and Cayenne was happily pointing her fingers to the menu while talking to Stefan what he likes to eat. Even though she knew what he likes, from time to time, she would still ask for his opinion. Having open communication to each other helps strengthen their relationship. They never wanted to keep any secrets again.

"By the way, I have finalized the family trip and we will leave as soon as we\'re done settling our matters. I\'ll keep everyone posted in our family group chat and just in case there are any changes." Cayenne told everyone while waiting for their orders. "Do you have other plans?"

"Well, I just received a message from big bro\'s company. It\'s about the scholarship and the part-time job. I\'ll have to go there tomorrow at nine in the morning." Dominic told Cayenne this information. When you think about, their grandfather should be the head of the family but because they\'re poor, they had to rely on Stefan. But when it comes to planning and decision making, everything falls to Cayenne. She\'s really the rule in their whole family.

Cayenne frowned and bit her lower lip. "Do you still intend to take that scholarship?"

"Hn. Luiz will study using the scholarship he got even though he can choose to depend on you. I want to be like him. I want to put more efforts to my studies."

"Well, I don\'t have anything to argue with that. Do your best, then!" Cayenne cheered for him happily before looking at her brothers. "What about you two?"

"I will be taking the entrance examination to Trine in three days. The photoshoot for the magazine will start after two weeks since they still needed more preparations." Luiz answered his sister.

"As for me, aside from taking out Kath on a date and the photoshoot, I have nothing else to do." Kyle added which earned him a raised brow from his sister. "Can\'t I go on dates during summer?"

"Aren\'t you planning to get a part-time job?" Stefan asked him because he remembered that they wanted to work before. He wanted to know if it has changed.

Kyle scratched the back of his head while taking out the folder that he kept inside his bag. "It all depends on this. Can you look at it while waiting for the food?" he asked Stefan with a sheepish smile.

Stefan took the contract and read it. "Does Luiz have the same contract?"

"Hn. We checked it earlier and we have the same contract; no more, no less." Kyle replied.

Since Stefan was busy reading, Cayenne was also busy typing on her phone to note down everyone\'s schedule. "As for grandpa and grandma, we will be going out tomorrow to buy your glasses and to have a full body check-up. Uncle Stan will go to Stefan\'s company for briefing and contract signing. Papa will just stay at home."

"I don\'t like to stay at home tomorrow. I want to do something." Jonas retorted with a grumpy expression. He felt useless now that everyone has made plans.

"What do you want to do?" Cayenne asked him.

"Never mind. I\'ll just stay at home and clean the whole house."

Cayenne stifled her laughter while writing something on her phone. They were told to wait for fifteen minutes because the chef had to make lots of food for all of them thus; Cayenne used this time to discuss things with everyone.

Suddenly, Stefan snaked his arm around her waist and pulled her a little closer. "Honey, aren\'t you going to ask what my plans for the next few days?"

Cayenne frowned and looked at him. "Didn\'t we talk about it earlier?"

"Did we?"

"Yeah. We\'re planning to deal with your separation anxiety, aren\'t we?"

Stefan froze and so was everyone. Only Cayenne was smiling at the moment. Even the body guards looked at her in astonishment.

"You\'re no longer sticking with each other?" Luiz asked.

"Are you going somewhere, Stefan?" Uncle Stan also asked.

Stefan put down the contract on the table and blinked his eyes. "Are we really doing this? It wasn\'t a joke?"

"Nope. I was serious about it." Cayenne told him and even pinched his face to let him know that they\'re having a real conversation. She turned to everyone and told them the purpose of this matter, telling them that she\'s going back to school and had to practice living her life without Stefan for most of the day. In fact, it was the other way around. Stefan had to get used to his life without seeing her for several hours of the day but of course, she wouldn\'t tell them that.
