Chapter 241: PROBLEMS

Cayenne took a taxi to Senyu Medical Hospital. She urged the taxi to go faster but they couldn't go beyond the speed limit which made her feel more anxious as time went by. She clutched her bag as tight as she could, as if it was giving her the strength that she needed the most.

'Lord, please don't let anything bad happen to my mom. Please don't take her yet.'

She prayed silently while wiping the tears off her face. She tried to calm herself but the nearer she was to the hospital, the more nervous she felt.

As soon as they reached the entrance, Cayenne handed her fare without waiting for a change. The driver called her again and again but she never stopped to get it.

"Luiz." Cayenne called her brother's name when she reached the emergency area. The room where her mother was sent to still has a red light on and her brothers were waiting for the doctor at the lobby. "What happened?"

Luiz was crying and his handsome face looked distraught with what happened to their mother. As for Kyle, he was calm and compose on the outside but the turmoil he felt can only be hidden deep within his heart. He didn't want to breakdown. His brother and sister needed him. They needed someone to stay strong for them during these times.

"I don't know." Luiz answered while shaking his head again and again. He's at loss of what's happening and what he should do. "Jasmine and the doctors are still inside doing their best to help her." His tears kept rolling his face. Out of the three children, Luiz was the closest to Emerald. Her situation was really a blow to him which worried Cayenne for his brother.

"Shh. Let's just pray. Everything will be alright. Mom won't leave us yet." Cayenne hugged her youngest brother and gently rubbed his back. "She'll be fine." She was saying this to comfort her brother but the fear in her heart still lingered and she wasn't even convinced with her own words.

The time slowly ticked by as the three of them waited for the doctor to come out. Kyle told his sister that the doctor and nurses had been inside the emergency room for almost twenty minutes already. They should be coming out already.

After few minutes more of waiting, the light of the emergency room was turned off and the doctor came out with dejected expression. Even without saying anything yet, Cayenne already had a hunch of the bad news.

"I'm sorry." The doctor stated with a solemn face. "We've tried our best but the patient's illness made complications to her other vital organs. Her heart and lungs failed her and there was a blood clot on her brain. I'm truly sorry for your loss."

Cayenne's tears fell on the cold floor. Her chest felt so painful and that's when she realized that she had stopped herself from breathing. "This can't be happening." Cayenne mumbled, taking a step back. "You're lying, right? Doc, my mother can't die. I still have so many things to tell her."

"I'm really sorry. I'll have my assistant help you with all the remaining procedures." The doctor left them to their own accord, letting reality sank to their minds.

Cayenne's slumped down on the nearest bench and wept bitterly. "Why is this happening?"  She whispered mixed with hiccups and sobs. "I still need my mother. I still have so many things to say and show to her. I haven't told her about my marriage yet. I want my mom."

Luiz was the same. The two of them cried their heart out while Kyle tried his best not to lose his composure. "You can go home first. I'll go with the nurse for the discharge procedure and to have her body sent to the morgue for embalming."

Cayenne looked to her brother and nodded her head. Before she left with Luiz, she gave Kyle her savings card which contained all the money she saved from her work. She saved them for her mother's hospitalization but someone else's paid for it. Who would have thought that she'd be using it to settle all the bills related to her death?

Her heart ached so much. She kept crying on her way home with Luiz. Death, she knew it would come sooner or later but still, she was caught unprepared. Last night, she was still thinking how to speak to her mother about her marriage registration. However, she wasn't given the chance to talk to her.

"Yen, what will happen to us now?" Luiz questioned when the two of them got home. His eyes were red and swollen from crying. There were still tears hanging on his thick long lashes making him look so pitiful and devastated.

"Don't worry. Kyle and I are both in legal age already. I will be your guardian. The three of us will stick together until we grow old. I won't leave you or let you suffer. We'll get back on our feet. This is just part of our challenges. I'm here for you so, don't worry." Cayenne still comforted her brother even though she needed comforting as well.

Seeing how sad Luiz was, Cayenne stopped crying and decided to stay strong for the three of them. She's the eldest. She needed to take care of her siblings.

While Cayenne was having a hard time, Stefan wasn't having it easy with his business problem either. He arrived earlier than the expected meeting at 7:00 in the morning with Seiji Sy. However, two hours had passed and there was no sight of the man he was supposed to meet.

"Chris, didn't they confirm that they will meet us at 7:00 a.m?" Stefan asked while looking at his wristwatch. It was the watch that Cayenne gave as a match to the bracelet that he gave her.

Chris handed showed him the email confirmation which showed the time of the appointment. "This is the confirmation email. I have tried calling his secretary but there was no answer from him as well. Maybe they ran into something."

"I hope so." Stefan responded with clenched fist. He might be overthinking but he felt that everything that happened has something to do with Cayenne. 'Why would someone attack my business for no reason? And they even ghosted me in this appointment.'
