AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Sebastien did not respond immediately. Instead, his dark eyes moved to look at Roxane.

She became nervous. She felt like her heart was about to fall out of her throat. She looked at him expectantly with her pair of large, bright eyes.

Sebastien found Roxane’s eyes difficult to refuse. His Adam’s apple rolled once before he nodded calmly and said in a low voice:

– Yes I love it.

He smiled slightly after finishing speaking and looked at Roxane with a loving look.

Roxane sighed inwardly with relief. When she met his gaze, she felt her heart skip a beat, and she instinctively looked away. She thought his look was really too seductive; it was like he really loved her. She knew that wasn’t the case since they had just met not too long ago.

The old Madam thought about it for a moment before sighing softly and saying:

– Forget that. Since Roxane doesn’t love Diego, the engagement with the Rios family should be canceled. Later, I will personally explain this to old Mrs. Rios.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

The old Madame didn’t know that Diego had left during the wedding, so Roxane’s parents hurriedly said:

– Mother, we will explain this matter to the Rios family. Instead, you should rest and take care of your health.

The old Madam glanced at her son and hesitated for a moment before nodding. Then, she said to Sebastien:

Little Sebastien, from now on, I leave Roxane to you.

Enzo tried to hold back his laughter, making the corners of his lips twitch. In the entire town of M, only his grandmother would dare to address Sebastien Flores as little Sebastien.

Sebastian’s expression remained calm. He responded in a manner that was neither servile nor authoritarian:

– Don’t worry, grandmother. I will definitely take care of Roxane.

When he addressed the old Madame as “grandmother”, not only did Roxane seem surprised, but Enzo was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped to the floor. He was like, ‘Fuck! This guy can really do fucking comedy!’

Old Madam looked a little tired at this point, so the Alvarez couple sent her back to the hospital. At this point, she could no longer do without the meticulous care of the hospital’s doctors and nurses.

Enzo was called as a driver, and before leaving, he did not forget to look at Sebastien, warning him not to act rashly.

With this, only Roxane and Sebastien remained in the huge villa. The atmosphere was calm and awkward.

After a moment, Roxane’s eyelashes fluttered as she looked up to look at Sebastien and said:

– Mr. Flores, thank you for today.

– There is no need to thank me.

Perhaps, now that the elders of the family were gone, he had become distant again. He was difficult to approach and wouldn’t even look at her.

Roxane knew that he had only accepted her request because of their agreement. Nonetheless, she was still grateful that he was willing to cooperate with her in front of her grandmother. She says :

– Mr. Flores, I am going to save your sister, but I have another presumptuous request.

Hearing this, Sebastian’s eyes flickered slightly with a hint of disdain.

Roxane pursed her lips before asking softly:

– Can I move in with you?

Sebastien narrowed his eyes and didn’t answer immediately.

As if she was afraid that he would refuse her, Roxane hastily said:

– You can just think that I’m renting one of your rooms. I am ready to pay rent.

After saying this, she seemed to realize something and bit her lower lip in annoyance. She thought she had said something stupid. After all, as president of the Flores group, would he care about the rent she offered to pay? Therefore, she said:

– Forget that. I will think of a way myself. THANKS.

Sebastian’s back was straight as he sat on the couch. Her jade-thin fingers rested on the top of his black pants. Because of the contrast, his fingers seemed even thinner and fairer. Whether intentional or not, his fingers tapped her knees repeatedly as his dark, piercing gaze captured every little expression on Roxane’s face.
