She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 892: JULIA'S WAYS TO GET ATTENTION

"Nanny Seth, can you hold Zeki first? I'll just wash the makeup off my face," Clarisse said after a few minutes when she noticed that the kids loved to touch her face. Earlier it was Jahzara and now it was Zeki. She was worried for the kids.

"You can go, Miss Clarisse," said the nanny, and Clarisse ran to the bathroom with her phone immediately.

She didn't bring anything with her since she was only supposed to attend a wedding, but fortunately, Cayenne brought a lot of things with her. She called Cayenne to ask if she could use some of the facial wash she brought and the latter agreed.

Clarisse cleaned her face thoroughly before wiping it dry with a towel.

When she returned to play with the kids, Jahzara was wriggling in Julia's arms while trying to reach Clarisse. She was moving a lot and it was getting harder to make her stay still, so Julia could only let go of the little girl.

Jahzara crawled her way to Clarisse and happily touched the woman's knee before climbing her way up to sit properly on her lap.

Clarisse giggled as she hugged the little girl and kissed her chubby cheeks several times. "I want to go home and bring you with me. You're so sweet. Do you recognize me now?"

Jahzara just laughed happily while touching Clarisse's face – her eyes, her nose, her lips – it was like the little girl was studying the woman who was holding her.

"The little princess likes you a lot," Rey commented while taking a picture of them. "Do you want me to send you the pictures?"

"Yes, please," Clarisse answered almost instantly. "I'll send them to Kath. She'd be dying in jealousy."

"You're evil," Rey said while shaking his head with a faint smile on his face. "I'll take more pictures of you and everyone else. I'll send them later. Why don't you sit together with Luiz? Let us see if you will look good as parents."

With Rey's intervention, Julia was left alone. They even took Zeki from the nanny so they could take more pictures with the triplets. On the other hand, she could only watch them having a good time together.

"Let me see the pictures," Clarisse said and Rey handed his phone to her. "Zeki is so cute. Look at that pout."

"He must have wanted you to hold him, too," Luiz responded and looked toward the little guy who was stacking alphabetical blocks again. "He loves someone to read him something, by the way."

"Then, let me find something to read for them," Julia said in response so she could squeeze some attention as well. "Do they like fairytales?"

"Jahzara loves them, but Zeki loves everything," Rey said while rummaging through another bag. It was where most of the toys and books were kept whenever they travel somewhere with the kids. "Here," Rey said and handed a book to Julia. It was one of the things that should never be forgotten at home or anywhere else. Wherever the kids go, this book should always be with them.

It was not even a picture book. "You can read that to them. The three of them love that book."

"You know so much about them," Julia commented while checking the book that the man gave her.

"It's our job to pay attention to every little detail," Rey responded coldly. "If you read that, the kids will pay attention to you."

"Ayena and the Possessive Prince?" Clarisse questioned when she saw the title of the book. "A love story?"

Hearing her words, Luiz couldn't stop himself from laughing so hard. It was not just an ordinary book that you can find in bookstores. It was the only book in the whole wide world. It was a custom-made book about Cayenne and Stefan. It has no ending.

"You will know why the kids love this story so much," Luiz expressed while waiting for Julia to start reading.

However, when Julia read the first page of the book, she already wanted to stop. She felt that it was not appropriate to read this book to the kids. Just as she was about to put down the book and find something else, she noticed that the kids were looking at her.

"No kidding," she mumbled when she saw their utmost interest in the book she was holding. "Who reads this story to the kids?" Julia asked Luiz and Rey since she could not imagine Cayenne reading such a story to her kids.

"The boss."

"My brother-in-law."

Luiz and Rey answered at the same time and Julia didn't doubt their words. Only her cousin had the guts to read such a thing to his kids. "I'll read something else," Julia muttered and looked for a short fairytale story online.

MINI THEATER

Luiz arrived with a beautiful woman to babysit the kids with the help of the nannies and bodyguards. Cayenne reminded them what they can do while preparing to leave the room.

Not wasting another second, the pretty woman held Jahzara in her arms.

"Uncle Luiz is with another girl," Jahzara said while touching the woman's face as if studying her. "Which of his girls do you like the most?"

"Aris (Clarisse)," Aziel answered instantly.

"Me, too," Jahzara said before turning her attention to Zeki. "What about K?"

"The one holding you."

Aziel and Jahzara couldn't believe that the youngest would choose someone he just met for the first time. They didn't even know her name.

A few minutes later, Julia came back who, as far as they knew, was their father's cousin. They don't like her though. She asked to hold Jahzara and Luiz's new woman gave Jahzara to her. Even though she didn't like what was happening, she could do nothing but behave properly because their parents weren't around.

"By the way, we haven't introduced ourselves. I'm Julia, Stefan's cousin," said Julia while holding Jahzara in her arms. "Sorry, I can't give you a handshake. I don't want to hold the little girl with one hand."

"No, it's fine. I'm Clarisse. I'm Luiz's girlfriend."

Aziel and Jahzara looked at each other instantly before shifting their gaze to the woman who was now holding Zeki. They felt a little foolish for not recognizing the woman.

"Well, at least, uncle is not cheating again," Aziel said while tugging Luiz's watch to pretend he was busy with it.
