AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Sebastien carried Roxane to the bathroom to wash before helping her put on one of her black shirts.

She leaned against him weakly, too tired and lazy to move. She looked at the shirt he was wearing and thought he seemed to like her wearing his shirt. Sometimes he would persuade her to wear his shirt before quickly taking it off. The next day, the shirt was missing a button or two.

Sebastien, satisfied, hugged her and kissed her on the forehead before saying:

-Your reaction this evening seems more exaggerated than usual…

She didn’t say anything. Instead, she buried her head against his chest.

A slight smile appeared on his face as he played with the ends of her hair saying:

– Hmm?

There seemed to be so many meanings in the word ‘Hmm?’.

Roxane, whose face was still pressed against his chest, said in a muffled voice:

– It’s… It was good…

Sebastien stopped. He looked at her and lifted her chin, forcing her to look at him.

– What do you mean?

“Could it be that I… I never took her to the top?”

Roxane didn’t dare to meet his gaze at all. She quickly moved away, intending to slip into the blanket, saying:

– Don’t speak any more. Go to sleep!

Sebastien also went to bed. He wrapped his arm around her and whispered:

– I will pay more attention to you in the future…

-…

– Do not speak anymore ! How can you be so cheeky?

…

The next day, when she woke up, Sebastian’s side of the bed was already empty. When she finally came downstairs, she saw him drinking coffee.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

He looked up as soon as he heard footsteps.

When their eyes met, both seemed to have thought of something, and the corners of their lips turned up at the same time.

Roxane had just walked towards the dining table when the butler came and said:

-The young lady and Mr. Grant are here.

The smile on Sebastien’s face disappeared as he said without emotion:

– Let them in.

Roxane was perplexed.

– Why did Christine and Senior come so early?

Previously, Christine had already been released from the hospital. She did not stay at Moon Pavilion and returned to the old residence instead. Roxane heard that Raoul stayed by Christine’s side, so it was more convenient for him to take care of her.

Sebastien did not answer Roxane’s question.

Shortly after, Raoul pushed Christine inside.

Christine, who was sitting in the wheelchair, was dressed in a light yellow dress. Her long hair was tied into a half ponytail. The baby fat she had before seemed to have melted away, making her features even more distinct. His person was no longer as lively and cheerful as before. Even when she smiled, a tinge of sadness could still be seen in her eyes.

– Brother, sister-in-law, hello.

Raoul, who pushed the wheelchair, did not speak. He only nodded slightly in greeting.

-Why did you suddenly come? Did you have breakfast?

She asked worriedly.

– I ate, replied Christine,

-I came to pack my things today. We will go to the airport later.

Roxane was stunned. She looked at Sebastien in confusion.

Christine looked confused and asked:

-Didn’t Brother tell you?

Roxane was still confused.

– Tell me what?

– I’m going abroad to have my legs treated. I’ve already taken time off from university.

Roxane was shocked.

– Are you going abroad? Are you going alone?

She shook her head before looking up at the man standing behind her. A hint of embarrassment could be seen on her face as she said with a smile:

– Raoul will come with me…

Although she could not walk at that time, with Raoul by her side, she did not lose hope and agreed to be treated abroad.

Raoul patted Christine on the head at this moment and said:

“I’ll go up and help you pack first.”

Christine nodded and looked at Raoul’s back as he walked up the stairs. When he was completely out of sight, she turned to look at Sebastien and said seriously:

– Brother, thank you.

Although he and Raoul said nothing, Christine knew that he must have said or done something for Raoul to willingly accompany her abroad.

Sebastien’s expression did not change as he said:

– No need.

Roxane didn’t know what was happening, but she was hesitant to separate from Christine. She said :

– When you go abroad, you must treat yourself well. Get well soon and come back as soon as possible.

Christina nodded.

– I know. I don’t get the chance to say goodbye to Jessica. Please tell him not to be angry.

When she was hospitalized, Jessica tried to visit her several times, but she refused. She wasn’t the only visitor she refused to see. She didn’t want people to see her in a wheelchair.

Sebastien finished his breakfast and went upstairs to change, leaving the two young women alone.

Both young women’s eyes were red due to their imminent separation.

…

After changing, Sebastien didn’t come down immediately. Instead, he stood in the hallway, waiting.

Soon, Raoul came out of Christine’s room with a suitcase. Instead of clothes, it was filled with items such as her iPad, laptop, and other things she had left there.

Raoul stopped in front of Sebastien and shouted

– President Flores.

He looked at Raoul coldly, saying:

– Take good care of her. When you come back, you won’t lose a single cent.
