Cayenne went out of the room to order some food for her mother in the restaurant. She passed by the lobby to get some thing from her locker in the employee's lounge when she met someone she never wanted to meet for the rest of her life.
She wanted to pretend that she didn't see her but the woman looked around the place and saw Cayenne walking towards the lobby.
"Isn't this Ms. Ardolf?" Kirin looked towards Cayenne, her eyes were running up and down. "You're working here?"
"Yes, ma'am." Cayenne answered politely but nothing more than that. "If you'll excuse me, I needed to work now."
Kirin just watched her left but when Cayenne was already out of her sight, she turned towards Luna who happened to be the receptionist that she was talking to earlier. "I want her to personally attend to me during my stay here."
"I'm sorry ma'am but Ms. Ardolf is currently assigned to look after a sickly guest right now. If you want, I can recommend you with few of our available employees."
Kirin waved her hand in an instant. "No need. I don't want anyone aside from her but since she's looking after someone, just forget my request."
"Thank you for your consideration, ma'am." Luna slightly bowed her head and handed the room card to Kirin.
Unbeknownst to them, the rich lady had already something in mind. She hated Cayenne before and that extend until this moment. She hated her so much and seeing her face boiled her blood to the highest degree.
When the lady left, Cayenne passed by once again and Luna stopped her. "That lady earlier, do you know her?"
"Hn. Remember the guy who came here last time, that lady is his mother."
"She doesn't like you?"
"She hates me ever since I got acquainted with her son."
"And does that guy knew about it?"
"No. He doesn't need to know and I don't really care. I'm happy now and her opinion doesn't affect me anymore." Cayenne replied with a wink. "They can't compare to my man."
"Tsk!" Luna snickered. "Don't flaunt it in front of me. I will kick you if you won't stop."
"How was your vacation by the way?" Cayenne questioned. She remembered that Luna and Ali went to one of Stefan's resort to celebrate the New Year.
Ali's eyes lit up and she was ready to tell Cayenne her experience but someone came over, putting a stop to their conversation. "Let's talk later."
"Hn." Cayenne eventually left to get buy food for her mother.
So far, everything was going well. Cayenne wasn't facing any problem with Kirin. She still worked with Celine and once they're done, they'll take a break and she'll go back to her mother's room. She was tired but she was happy that her mother was safe and sound with her.
After shift, Leon, the taxi driver picked them up and sent them home. Luiz and Kyle were back already and were cooking their dinner. Stefan was still on his way with Chris and the newly hired nurse.
"Hey sis, I noticed that there were many hidden cameras in our apartment now." Luiz commented while he pointed his finger to one of the cameras. "Did your boyfriend install all of them?"
"Hn. It's for our mother since she'd be alone during the day." Cayenne replied. "By the way, Mama wants to visit your father this weekend. You must accompany her. I'm going somewhere with Stefan."
"By the way Yen, does Stefan know about our father?" Kyle asked her. "Will he have opinion against you if he knew about him?"
"I'll tell him about it when I'm ready. I promised not to keep any secrets to him so he should know about it sooner or later." Cayenne told them. "Anyway, I'll take a rest for a while."
"Okay. We'll let you know once dinner is ready."
"Okie dokie." Cayenne smiled at them and went inside her room. Her mother just went to sit in the living room. Not long after, Stefan came home. Chris came with him as well as the nurse that he hired.
"I'm back." Stefan announced their arrival and Cayenne came out to see him. She hugged him and helped him take off his coat and handed him his indoor slippers. "How was your work today?"
"I was doing fine. I didn't have much time earlier since most of the time, I was taking care of my mother. Celine was very understanding, too."
Stefan reached out his hand and rubbed her head. "I'm glad to know that."
"How about you? Are you still feeling uncomfortable? You need to visit your doctor tomorrow to check on your wound." Cayenne told her. She turned to Chris and the other man or woman or someone in between this gender, and led them to the living room.
Stefan took the initiative to introduce the nurse to Cayenne and her family. His name was James but he's feminine at heart and likes to be addressed as a woman. His woman counterpart was named Jasmine. He's a licensed nurse but the hospital that he applied didn't want to hire him because of his gender.
Although there were hospitals who wanted to accept him as he is, they didn't have the best facilities and they were rather small. So, he decided to become a private nurse instead.
And Stefan hired him in to be Emerald's private nurse when he saw his excellent performance evaluation during his years of study. Also, he didn't have to do a lot of things. He just needed to make sure that Cayenne's mother eats on time and drinks her medicine on time.
Cayenne also explained that he will only be working during the day, starting from seven in the morning and can come home at six in the evening. Of course, he was paid by Stefan accordingly. In fact, it was three times better compared to other nurses out there.
Jasmine looked towards Cayenne and sighed. "No wonder the most sought out bachelor is now taken. A beautiful lady has come to snatch the man of every woman's dream."
"You flatter me." Cayenne responded.
"If you get tired of him, give him to me, okay?"
"You have to wait for at least hundreds of years." Cayenne replied with a laugh. "I hope you don't mind taking care of my mother."
"Not at all. This job is a great help to me."
"Since you know where to work and who you're working for, let's leave for tonight. I'll treat you to dinner." Chris told James or Jasmine but they'll be calling his female name, Jasmine.
Jasmine bid farewell and went out with Chris. 'This guy is damn hot!'
