Chapter 69: Bringing My Wife Home
Roxane had almost finished tidying up Enzo’s office when she received a call from Jessica, who was getting impatient.
– How is it? Did you manage to pursue Sebastien?
-…
After a few seconds of silence, Roxane said helplessly:
-How can it be so fast? I haven’t even thought about how to pursue it yet.
After all, she really didn’t have much experience chasing someone.
-What should we think about? Find an opportunity that suits you and tell him that you like him and want to be his real woman! Jessica was used to being direct and couldn’t stand indecision.
– That’s it?
-What else then?
– What if he refuses me?
She sat on the couch and bit her nails.
“Won’t it be embarrassing if he rejects me?
Jessica thought about it for a moment before suggesting:
– Why don’t you invite him on a date? At that time, you can strengthen your relationship. Do this until you feel confident confessing to him.
-What kind of dates should we go on? Roxane asked curiously.
– Of course, you should invite him to an escape room.
She said enthusiastically:
– Most importantly, the theme of the room must be scary. Then you can pretend to be scared and run into his arms! Let him save the damsel in distress! After kissing him a few more times, you’ll be a couple.
-Why does your idea seem so unreliable?
– Believe me! It’s absolutely reliable! Jessica said with confidence and enthusiasm:
– All right ! It’s decided then! I will help you make a reservation and send you the address. Don’t forget to ask Sebastien out.
Roxane: ???
“Is there any need to rush?”
While Roxane was chatting with Jessica, Enzo was arguing with Sebastien. To be precise, he was swearing while Sebastian was focused on reading the document in his hand. He didn’t even look at it.
Enzo became even angrier when he saw Sebastien ignoring him.
– Sebastien Flores, are you fucking listening to me? Is this your fucking attitude towards your brother-in-law?
Sebastien finally looked up and asked:
– Are you very free?
Enzo sat on the sofa and rested his long legs on the coffee table. However, after hearing Sebastian’s words, he immediately lowered his legs and straightened his back, asking suspiciously:
– What do you want ?
– Nothing. It’s just that Roxane went to the Rios family house this morning.
– Whore!
Enzo’s eyes widened as he cursed. He asked :
-Why did she go there? Did Diego look for her?
The thought of Roxane still having feelings for Diego worried Enzo.
Sebastien put his document aside before saying:
– I heard that old Mrs. Rios wasn’t feeling well.
Enzo sneered.
– Old Madame Rios is as strong as an ox. How can she feel bad?
Sebastien did not respond. His eyes glowed darkly as he leaned back in his chair. After a few moments, he finally said tonelessly:
-You are completely free now. Are you interested in bidding on a project?
Enzo rolled his eyes.
– Get the hell out of here! It’s not easy for me to have free time, but you still want to rush me, you black-hearted capitalist.
Sebastien said calmly:
– I heard that Diego is leading a team to bid for a project for the new ecological residential zone…
Realization immediately dawned on Enzo. A charming smile immediately appeared on his handsome face as he said:
– Oh, I suddenly feel very invigorated. The company has treated me so well that I should return the favor. Let me help the company bid for the project.
Indeed, the Flores group had no interest in bidding for the government project to develop an ecological residential district. However, Sebastien became interested when he learned that the Rios family business was interested in the project.
The profit from this type of project was not very great. Generally, only companies looking to make a name for themselves or establish a foothold would bid for such a project.
The Rios family business was doing quite well. If they were successful in bidding for the project, it would improve their reputation and make them famous. For this reason, Olivier Rios and Diego would certainly attach great importance to the project.
Diego had already harassed Roxane several times, making Sebastien very unhappy. Since he was unhappy, he did not allow Diego to be happy.
Sending Enzo to cause trouble for Diego would not only distract Diego from Roxane, but it would also prevent Enzo from looking for trouble with Sebastian. He wanted to kill two birds with one stone.
– Alright. In that case, I’ll have to bother Mr. Alvarez, Sebastian said with a nod.
– President Flores, you don’t need to be so polite. It’s my duty, after all, Enzo replied.
Both men acted like a good boss and a good subordinate respectively. Those who knew better would think that the people of the Flores group were very united.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
…
Roxane waited for Enzo for a long time, but he still didn’t come back. Just as she was about to go looking for him, the door opened.
Enzo and Sebastien entered at the same time.
Enzo’s expression was one of displeasure as he looked at Sebastian and asked:
– Why did you follow me here?
Sebastien’s expression did not change as he replied:
-To bring my wife home.
He didn’t lower his voice and the door wasn’t closed.
Those in the technology department, who had been shocked when they saw Sebastien in their department, were even more shocked by his words.
‘Marry!’
– It’s true that Brother Enzo’s sister is President Flores’ wife!
Those who had hoped to become Enzo’s brother-in-law felt the hope in their hearts die.
-Ah, we’d better stop thinking about Brother Enzo’s sister. Otherwise, we won’t even be able to keep our jobs.
