She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 419 - FLIRTING FAILED

The man stood up from his seat and gave his friends a playful wink. He strode towards the bar counter and one chair apart from the bodyguard to Cayenne's right. The counter was a semi-circle so he got a perfect view to see Cayenne's beautiful face. He ordered a drink but even after he got it, he didn't leave.

The two bodyguards didn't leave either. It's their duty to protect their young madam in the absence of Stefan.

The man took a glance towards Cayenne but she didn't look at him. She was busy sipping her juice while fiddling with her bracelet. In truth, Cayenne was doing it because she misses her husband who's taking quite sometime in the comfort room. However, the man took it a distress signal coming from her.

"Uh…uhm…are you alright miss?" He asked Cayenne without looking at the guys beside her.

"Yeah. I'm fine."

He braved up himself and looked to the bulky men on each side of her. "They're not bullying you, right?" He asked.? There was a trace of concern on his face but his eyes held mirth and sparkles. He wasn't really doing it out of concern but to boost his own ego.

"No, they're not. They're very kind to me." Cayenne answered with a faint smile.

"Are you sure?"

Cayenne chuckled as she looked at him with her hand on her chin. "Don't be silly. Why would my own bodyguards bully me? They're sitting beside me to protect me."

The man's face flushed and he opened his mouth to say something only to close it again. After a few seconds, he smiled. "I apologize for my mistake. I thought they're bullying a weak-looking girl like you. But I'm glad that everything's fine. Can I buy you a drink as an apology?"

"Oh! There's no need. I don't accept any drinks if it's not bought by my husband."

"Husband?" He was standing there in front of her in surprise once again. Because he was sitting on the right and Cayenne's left hand was blocked with her glass, he didn't notice her wedding ring at all.

Cayenne pretended she didn't know his intention and just continued to play the kind person she was in front of this lustful man in front of her. "There he is." She beamed a smile when she saw Stefan coming back to her. "What's taking you so long?" Cayenne mumbled as she hugged him in front of the man. "This is my husband. And he hired these men to guard me. Isn't he sweet?"

"Yeah. He is." The man never felt so embarrassed in his lifetime until this very moment. He wanted to escape from her radar so soon.

"Do you know him?" Stefan asked while looking the man up-and-down, as if he was an insect under his microscope for observation.

Cayenne shook her head in response. "But he's a kind stranger. He thought was being bullied because of these big guys sitting on my side. He came to help me."

"Oh?" Stefan just raised his eyebrow and didn't say anything anymore to the man. He took her half-filled glass of juice from the counter and led Cayenne to the couch where her siblings and Dominic stayed.

"He was definitely trying to flirt with me." Cayenne whispered and rolled her eyes.? "Did he really think I'd be fooled by him? Hmp!"

"You're learning to observe people now?"

"I learn that from you." Cayenne kissed his cheek and smiled. "Do you want to play bowling with me?"

"Sure." No matter what she likes, Stefan would indulge her without asking any questions except for the mission that she likes doing with him – the mission to deal with his separation anxiety.

Cayenne told the boys that they'd be at the bowling alley to play and the three didn't hesitated to come with them. The bowling area wasn't crowded and they got the chance to enjoy it for themselves.

Seeing them walk away, the man also left the counter and walked back to his circle of friends. "That's her boyfriend?" one of his friends asked.

"No. That's her husband."

"Pfft!" They all snickered and laughed. They didn't expect that a playboy like him would fail to hook up with a woman. "When I saw their faces clearly, I recognized them immediately. Since you're not from City A or City B, you might not be very familiar with them." Another friend of his commented.

"Are they celebrities?" the man asked while looking at Cayenne's cheerful smile while talking to her husband.

"They're not celebrities but they're pretty famous for being one of the sweetest couples. The man is named Stefan Dumrique and he's super rich. And the lady is Cayenne Dumrique. Not many people know of her background and Stefan, although flaunted their relationship in public, he keeps his wife's real identity a secret. We only know of her name."

"I see." The man just smiled faintly. It was the first time someone said that he's kind. He was sure that Cayenne did it to give him some face and he admired her even more because of that. 'Sadly, she's married.'

Now, inside the entertainment hall, two one-sided love were unintentionally crushed into dusts by the Ardolf siblings.

Stefan gave Cayenne her juice as they took a seat on the couch. "I'll play first. You come and watch me."

"Okay." Cayenne sip on her juice and watched him walk to get a bowling ball.

"I'm not really good at this so, don't expect me to be perfect." Stefan told his wife who was looking with so much anticipation.

"That's fine. I'm not looking for a perfect version of you anyway."

Stefan smiled and slid the ball down the wooden plane but towards the end, it slowly changed direction and fell on the side. "I told you."

Cayenne stood up and throw a ball as well and just like him, it went to the side.? "Oh! Look at that. I didn't score, too. Our imperfections make us a perfect match." Cayenne happily stated while linking her arms with his.

Seeing their sweet moments, Luiz muttered, "I think I'll go play somewhere else."

"Want to play the basketball hoop over there?" Dominic suggested because he didn't want to get a diabetes because the couple.
