She's My Sleeping Pill

Half an hour later, with all the things that Zeki needed put away in one bag, Dr. Rivera took the child away. Nash drove the doctor's car for him.

"Will he be fine?" Cayenne asked her husband who was standing next to her, watching their child leave their home for almost a day.

"We can trust Eli. I am sure he knows exactly what to do," Stefan said and pulled his wife closer. "Let's get back inside. You have work to do this afternoon, right? Also, you might want to check on Zaire. I heard from Tristan that the man found his father already and the news wasn't something joyful."

"Why? He had already expected that his father could be married to someone. Is there something more unbearable than that news?"

"Just call him. It's better to hear the information from him."

Zaire Dubrinskii was Cayenne's videographer and video editor. He was originally from the Philippines and came to A City to find his father who abandoned him and his father when he was still a baby. It was really a blessing to him that Cayenne accepted him to become part of her vlogging team.

After a few months of working for Cayenne, he finally earned her trust. Stefan also appreciated his hard work and not long after, Stefan offered him to look for Tristan if he needed help in finding his father. At first, he didn't want to do it because he felt that he was abusing their kindness.

However, doing things on his own, finding his father was like finding a needle in a haystack. It was so difficult. He needed help. It was then that he accepted Stefan's offer.

Tristan introduced him to capable private investigators who knew people from the military. In that way, he would be able to get his answers as soon as he could.

"Zaire, are you okay?" Callum asked while knocking on the door to the man's room. "Cree and I will be leaving now to get Miss Yen's next guest. Addie said she would wait for you."

There was no answer.

The four of them, along with the bodyguards that Cayenne assigned to them, were staying at Peach Wood Subdivision, right next to the Sugo family.

They also knew what happened to Zaire that made him lock himself inside his room.

"Zaire, you can tell Addie if you want her to wait for you or not. I'm leaving now," Callum said and waited for another five seconds. Unfortunately, there was still no response coming from the man.

"How is he? Did he talk to you?" Addie asked as soon as she saw Callum walking downstairs. "He locked himself since last night and he hadn't had his dinner last night and breakfast today."

"Let's give him some time. We know that Zaire is a responsible person. He won't allow this setback to affect his work," Cree told them as she picked up her bag and walked out of the house. "We'll meet you at the mansion."

"Okay. You both take care of yourselves. Don't stay too far from your guards," Addie said as a reminder."

Upstairs, in his bedroom, Zaire was standing at the door with a headset. His mother was on the other end of the line – sobbing.

"I'm sorry, Mom. Honestly, I didn't want to tell you about this," Zaire said apologetically. His voice was hoarse, and the nasal tone indicated that he also cried. "I thought it would be better if you know nothing."

"Is it really better that we know the truth?" asked his mother on the line while wiping her tears away. It was already evening in his mother's country and Zaire knew that his mother was even more vulnerable during this moment, but he wanted to tell her the news as soon as she could. "Zaire, what happened between me, and your father has nothing to do with you.

I hope you won't keep a grudge against him."

"Mom, I wasn't hurt because he abandoned us. I got so used to the fact that I haven't had a father since I was a baby. What I hated the most is the fact that he fooled you. I mean, well, I expected it already that he must have married someone else and had built his own family, but mom – God! Your sister stole your husband away from you! No!

Your husband cheated on you with your sister! That's what angers me! And you seemed to know about it!"

Zaire could no longer take it and shouted.

"I knew that he was cheating on me. I found him and my sister fooling around a couple of times. I thought that maybe they were just so close to each other. I forced myself to go blind with the truth lying in front of me. Then, you came. It turned out, your father never loved me in the first place.

He was aiming for my sister by making me his girlfriend. He never wanted you to come into this world and I opposed him."

"So, he left with your sister, and you told me you have no siblings. My grandparents were angry about this fact, so they never acknowledged her again. You all made me believe that you are an only child."

"Is it wrong for us to do so?"

Zaire was speechless. It was his idea to find out where his father was. He even lied to his mother about it. Now, he was paying for his stubbornness.

"Mom, I'm sorry for stubbornly pursuing this matter. I know I shouldn't have done this. I wish I could turn back time, but - " "Zaire," his mother called out and interrupted his self-blame. "I know it would be impossible to forget what you know, but son, we've been doing great without him. We will continue to do better without him. Stop thinking about him. You should just think of yourself and find someone you can spend the rest of your life with. Make yourself busy with something and forget him."

Zaire looked outside the window and sighed heavily. He just reminded his mother of the pain she felt from the betrayal of her husband and her sister. "Mom, do you want to come here? We can go on a trip together. We can show to the world that we are living a great life without his support."

"We're here," Nash told Dr. Rivera as he parked the car outside the doctor's residence. "I'll help you carry your things. You can just bring the baby inside."

"Thank you. I appreciate the offer," Dr. Rivera said and stepped out of the car. Before he could even open the door, Andrei beat him to it and swung the door open. He was already at home, waiting for his uncle to arrive. "Is Mom with you?"

Andrei nodded his head in response.

Dr. Rivera went inside his house and Nash followed behind him after checking the surroundings of the property. They went to the doctor's room and found a small crib inside. "Have you been planning to take the child from the start?" Nash asked as he put down Zeki's things on the bed.

"Yes, but this crib was just brought here today."

Not long after Jojie came inside with the kids. They were all excited to spend time with Neon and help the doctor with his social experiment to find out what exactly was wrong with Zeki.

"I hope the child won't get hurt with whatever you have in mind. Please know that I will be reporting everything to the madam and the boss," Nash reminded the doctor before walking out of the room to be on guard at the door. "Call me if you ever need help."
