AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Sebastian had been a little busy recently. He left early and came back late.

In addition to attending classes, Roxane spent all her time accompanying Mathis.

Since Deborah’s departure, Mathis had withdrawn from the world.

It had been colder recently, so Roxane used that as an excuse to take Mathis to buy warmer clothes, hoping to relax him.

When they were in the children’s section of the mall, she picked out a few sweaters and two coats before asking:

– Mumu, do you like that?

Mathis looked up and nodded perfunctorily.

Roxane had a feeling he might not like it, so changed them to black before asking:

-And these?

This time, Mathis didn’t even look up when he nodded.

Roxane sighed helplessly before crouching down and saying:

“Don’t be like that, okay? If it makes you feel better, I’ll let you ruin my studio when we get home, okay?

She felt really uncomfortable when she saw how sad Mathis was.

Mathis looked at her and shook his head:

– Godmother, I won’t cause any more trouble. I don’t want to buy clothes either. I…I miss my mother. His eyes reddened as he lowered his head and repeated:

-I miss my mother so much…

Roxane hugged him and gently patted his back. She whispered comfortingly:

– Do not be sad. Your mother will always watch you from heaven. She won’t leave you.

Mathis pursed his lips as tears continued to fall down his face like pearls.

Suddenly, a mocking laugh sounded nearby.

Roxane looked up and saw Jonas leaning against the wall on his side. His long, narrow eyes sized her and Mathis.

-Why are you staging a bitter drama in public?

Roxane helped Mathis wipe away his tears before getting up. She looked at Jonas and said:

– Do not talk nonsense!

Jonas looked at Mathis and asked:

– Child, do you want to see your mother?

Mathis looked at Jonas with red eyes and nodded.

– Yes.

“Then I’ll take you to her.

Hearing this, Mathis let go of Roxane and ran towards Jonas. He asked enthusiastically:

– Can you really take me to mom?

“Of course,” Jonas said, bending down and carrying Mathis. Then he turned to leave.

Roxane chased after him.

– Jonas, where are you taking him?

“You will know if you follow me,” Jonas replied nonchalantly.

– Hey!

Roxane followed him outside. She saw him put Mathis on a huge orange motorcycle, and her expression immediately changed. She asked:

– Didn’t you say that you had sold it?

– Is there a rule saying I can’t buy it again after selling it? Jonas said with a slight sneer on his face.

– It’s too dangerous. You can’t let him ride on it…

Jonas skillfully put on the helmet and jumped onto the motorcycle easily with his long legs. Then he turned to Roxane and said:Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

– Do you think you can control me? Let’s talk about it after you catch up with me.

After saying this, he fled on the motorcycle.

It was too late for Roxane to take Mathis away. There was no time for her to call Logan so she quickly called a taxi to chase Jonas.

…

Mathis got in front of the motorcycle. He had nothing to hold on to, and the speed was too fast. Therefore, he hurriedly closed his eyes in fear as the cold wind whistled past his ears.

Jonas couldn’t help but smile when he felt Mathis’ trembling body. He lowered his head and said:

– Do not be afraid. Open your eyes and look.

Mathis didn’t dare open his eyes at all.

Jonas repeated:

– You don’t want to see your mother? Open your eyes…

As soon as Jonas mentioned the word “mother”, Mathis gathered all his courage and slowly opened his eyes.

It was dark and the city lights were on. The speed of the motorcycle made the lights look like shooting stars.

Mathis was attracted by the landscape of his surroundings and he gradually forgot his fear. In the end, he even raised his head to look around.

Seeing that Mathis was no longer afraid, a smile appeared on Jonas’ face.

He continued to drive the motorcycle on a winding road that led to the top of a mountain.

There weren’t many mountains around M City. There was only one small mountain nearby, and it was generally deserted. At that moment, the mountain, dimly lit by the street lights, was silent. The wind at the top of the mountain was chilling.

After stopping, Jonas lifted Mathis from the motorcycle.

Mathis couldn’t help but sneeze.

Seeing this, Jonas, who had taken off his helmet, threw his coat at Mathis and said:

– Put the.

If he caught a cold, Jonas knew Roxane would worry.

The hem of the coat fell to the floor after Mathis put it on. He looked up and blinked his big eyes at Jonas, asking:

– Where is my mother?

Jonas did not respond to Mathis. Instead, he walked over to the guardrail and sat down. He reached into his pocket, but when his fingers touched the cigarette box, he hesitated. Finally, he removed his hand, leaving the cigarette box in his pocket.

Mathis approached. He looked up at Jonas and asked again:

– Brother, where is my mother?

Jonas leaned down and easily lifted Mathis with one hand. He placed Mathis on the guardrail next to him. He placed his hand on Mathis, stopping him from falling. Then, he pointed to the sky with his other hand.

Mathis looked up at the sky. There were a few stars in the sky and a hazy moon. Then he said:

– I want to see my mother, not the stars!

Jonas looked at Mathis out of the corner of his eye and said:

– Your mother has become a star. The brightest star in the sky is your mother.

Mathis seemed to believe Jonas’ words. He looked carefully at the night sky, looking for the brightest star.

Roxane only arrived some time later. She paid for the taxi and rushed out of the car. When she saw Mathis sitting on the guardrail, she felt like her heart was going to jump out of her chest.

Just when she was about to walk, Mathis pointed to the sky and excitedly said to Jonas:

– I found it ! Mother is there !
