Chapter 936: THE CRYBABY
"Aren't you going to tell her the cause of all this mess? Yes, it was Steve's girlfriend that initially made the mistake, but it wasn't them who blew things up. They were victims on this grand scheme, too," Tristan told Stefan on their way to the party venue.
Stefan paused on his step while keeping his eyes on his wife not far from him. "I'll tell her before we leave the country. In the meantime, I want her to enjoy this party with her staff."
Tristan just nodded and followed everyone to the party venue.
Finally, Steve's issue that implicated Cayenne has been resolved and many people came over to visit her social media profiles and left an apology statement. Not only that, she gained more than 3 million followers. She was even better compared to the B-list actors in the country.
Her friends, staff and everyone who cared for her could now breath in relief.
It was already past twelve when they finished the conference and there were a lot of people at the venue already. Due to the planned one-month long vacation which would commence on the 25th of November, Cayenne decided to throw this early party for her staff and household helpers.
"I'm envious of you," Cree told Addie over a drink. "I want to travel the world with them as well."
"Didn't you say that you are excited to visit your grandparents during this one month of free time?" Callum retorted and he got an elbow jab from the boyish woman next to him.
Cree ignored him and turned to Addie again. "You will be coming with Zaire, right?" she questioned with a teasing grin on her face. "You can also take this as personal vacation, you know. I mean, for sure, Miss Yen will not be working all the time. So, you know...you can also go on dates."
"Huh? What are you saying? Stop teasing us. I'm a divorcee,"
"So?"
Addie stole a glance at Zaire who was taking pictures of the triplets not far from them. She could see the happiness in his eyes whenever he captured photos of the kids.
As if sensing someone looking at him, Zaire turned to her direction.
But Addie diverted her attention somewhere else. Her ears were tinged with crimson shade.
Seeing their actions, Cree and Callum could only shake their heads.
At this time, Cayenne went to the podium with her husband and received the mic from her brother. The master of ceremony this time were Kath and Kyle.
"Ahem," Cayenne coughed lightly to get everyone's attention. She smiled sheepishly at them and spoke. "We went through a lot of trouble this year, and I know it's not even the end of the year yet, but I just want to thank you all for the never-ending support you have provided all this time. Stefan and I won't be here for Christmas, so I decided to throw this little gathering for us all."
"I can't see the small gathering you described, Miss Yen," shouted Rey, one of the bodyguards. This brought laughter to everyone.
Cayenne laughed along them and continued, "Anyway, I just want to take this opportunity to thank you guys. Of course, expect to get your bonuses early this year."
"Yohooo!!"
"We're all waiting for this!"
"You're the best, boss!"
"Boss, bring me with you next time! I'm tired of seeing Callum's face!"
"As if I'm happy seeing your face!"
Callum and Cree started their banter again which everyone was used to already.
Cayenne finished her speech and Stefan gave only a perfunctory remark of "Let's all enjoy the party".
Compared to the usual banquet that Stefan would attend, this party that Cayenne held wasn't that grand. In fact, she decided for the casual them because she wanted everyone to come. She didn't want them to feel troubled about getting elegant dresses and suits, or having their hair and make-up done which would cost them a lot.
This time around, the bodyguards were able to relax a little bit. Since they were part of the party guests, Stefan and Cayenne had asked Travis to lend them some of his men for the time being. Just today, she wanted her people to enjoy life without anything to worry about.
Aside from the delicious food that they got to order, along with the expensive wine that they rarely get the chance to drink, Kyle and Kath also prepared games for everyone.
If it was a grand banquet for the elites, Kath and Kyle would never think of these.
But of course, ordinary people enjoy games with prizes, especially with two big bosses who weren't stingy at all.
"I know that you all wanted to enjoy your food and drinks," Kyle said while taking a glance at the crowd before landing his gaze to the triplets who were enjoying the attention that their parents gave to them.
"...but at the same time, let's have fun and win exciting prizes," Kath added to his statement. "The first game is to guess, who among you are being described. Of course, I knew that you don't know some of the people around you,"
"...and today is the day that you would know a little bit about them. If you think you're the person being described, you shall not answer it yourself. You can only answer it if it was someone else."
"The first person to answer will get a prize," Kath added to finish the short mechanics of the games.
"Don't make it difficult for us, please." Carla, the household chef, commented.
"Sir Kyle, do you really want us to get the prizes? How did you come up with this difficult game?" said another staff but Kyle promised them it won't be difficult. As long as they know some of their colleagues, they're bound to get at least a single prize.
"First description: A male who works for Cayenne. He's diligent and very punctual. He makes sure that Cayenne's schedule..."
"I know him! That's Jackson," answered one of the staff from the foundation team.
"How did you know it's him?" Kath asked with a suspicious smile, hinting something at the pretty lady who answered before Kyle could finish the description.
"Well, he's the only one who manages Miss Yen's schedule, is he not?"
"You are right," Kyle acknowledged and gave her a red envelope. "So, everyone, let me introduce to you. Just in case you don't know him yet, Jackson Mondejar is my sister's secretary. Next."
"The next one is...oh, I think all of us knows him," Kath said which gave a lot of hope to the crowd. "He doesn't like apples and is very grumpy early in the morning. He can sleep even when there's a blasting music at home."
"I know! I know!" Nanny Jo raised her hands happily. "I know them very well. It's young master Aziel." Your next journey awaits at m v|l-e'-NovelBin.net
Kyle approached nanny Jo to hand her the red packet and while he's at it, he asked, "Nanny Jo, since you claimed that you know them very well, I'll ask you a few more questions."
"O-okay."
Kyle: "Who's the crybaby?"
Nanny Jo: "Little Princess Jahzara"
Kyle: "Who's the mood killer?"
Nanny Jo: "Little Zeki"
Kyle: "Who's the animal lover?"
Nanny Jo: "Our little princess"
"Wow! You are incredible, nanny Jo," Kyle commented and was about to get back in front, but nanny Jo held the helm of his sleeve.
"Sir Kyle, won't I get bonus prize for the questions?"
Everyone laughed at Kyle upon seeing his troubled expression. "I didn't see that coming," Kyle commented but still gave nanny Jo an extra red packet. Then he turned to look at the little princess in Stefan's arms and sighed. "Baby, your nanny just exposed you of being the crybaby."
Everyone laughed again while the little girl scanned the room and started spouting gibberish words towards her father.
"Nanny Jo, our little princess says she'll get back at you once she learns to speak," Stefan added which earned another bout of laughter from everyone.
