Dr. Rivera checked his phone and read his girlfriend's last text to him, and it was about going to Naga City where she had an accident last time. The doctor frowned, but it was only for a second before he calmed himself again. "So, who among your bodyguards will come with me?"
"I'll talk to my husband first," Cayenne said while putting down her phone on the coffee table.
"I can look after your son if you want," Dr. Rivera offered, and Cayenne accepted it. He was one of the doctors they trusted the most.
Without wasting another second, Cayenne picked up her phone again and left to find her husband in the nursery room. She found Stefan singing a lullaby to their little girl as he swayed from side to side to put her to sleep. Aziel was already inside the crib sleeping soundly.
He looked at her with a questioning gaze, so she raised her phone and whispered, "I'll go to the bathroom to minimize the noise," and dialed Tristan's number right away to inquire about Nikolai. By the time she reached the bathroom, Tristan also answered her.
"Miss Yen? Do you need something from me?"
"Yes. Yes, I need you to help me with something. Can you check where Nikolai is? Don't let him know that I am inquiring about the details. Also, could you try to find out who is he with?"
"No worries, Miss Yen. That's easy-peasy. I'll get back to you in about ten minutes. Do you need anything else aside from this?"
"That's all I need for now. I will call you again should something else come up. Bye for now."
Cayenne ended the call right away and went out of the bathroom to talk to her husband about Dr. Rivera's suggestion. She knew that the doctor meant well when it comes to the welfare of Zeki, and she was really hoping that this time, Zeki would be healed or, at least, get treated.
"Dr. Rivera is waiting for us in the living room," she told Stefan while watching him place their daughter inside the crib meant for her.
"So, who among your bodyguards would go with me?"
"Nash is around since Luiz won't be working today. I'll ask someone to get him and accompany you. I'll tell Rey to come over to your place, too."
"Great. I'm sure Zeki would enjoy his stay there. My nephew and my girlfriend's little brother will be there, too."
Cayenne blinked her eyes several times before smiling in front of the doctor. She didn't want to think negatively but her brain was telling her something. [Oh, God. I hope Nikolai isn't being foolish.] Cayenne thought before looking away to hide her expression. "Since you will be taking Zeki, I will prepare the things that you need to use," she said and went back to the nursery room again.
"You can take it as a practice to handle your future kids with your lovely girlfriend," Stefan added as he picked Zeki up and placed him on his lap.
The little boy leaned on his father's chest right away and looked up to see the face of the most reliable man in the house. Stefan kept chatting with Dr. Rivera while Zeki observed him. He tugged on his father's shirt, but Stefan still continued talking.
"Stefan," Dr. Rivera finally said, forgetting the fact that he visited them for an official matter. "Your son needs something from you."
It was then that Stefan looked down to finally pay attention to Zeki. "What is it?" Zeki didn't say a word and just stared in front of him while reaching out for something with his little hands. "Do you want this?" Stefan asked while picking one of the sliced fruits on the table which was meant for Dr. Rivera.
Zeki turned silent and continued to reach for something.
Stefan felt helpless as he started picking things to show to Zeki. All this while, Dr. Rivera was making observations of the child.
Meanwhile, in the nursery room, Cayenne received a message from Tristan. Nikolai really went to Naga City and the person he was with was none other than the person that Cayenne was suspicious of – Isabelle Ignacio, Dr. Rivera's girlfriend.
