AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

By this time, there was already a crowd gathered around the trio. When they heard the conversation, they looked at Diego with disdain. They thought it was really immodest to bother a married woman. More importantly, the other man was so handsome! It was as if he had descended from the sky.

Diego held his still aching wrist as he watched Roxane obediently let the man take her away. His expression was extremely gloomy at this moment.

When Sebastien and Roxane arrived next to a black Bentley that was parked on the side of the road, he saw the box in her hand. Then he said:

– Give it to me.

– Eh?

She was still in a daze. When she realized what he was referring to, she handed him the box without any questions.

After taking the box, Sebastian raised his hand and threw the box casually.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

The box sailed through the air, avoiding the crowd, before falling precisely in front of Diego.

Then he said in a soft voice that carried a hint of pampering:

– Don’t hold on to garbage.

After Sebastian finished speaking, he deliberately looked at Diego.

-…

– I didn’t intend to hang on to it. I forgot to return it earlier!

After the duo entered the car, the car quickly drove away and disappeared from everyone’s sight.

Diego had grown up and was loved by everyone. Therefore, he had never suffered such humiliation. He was so angry that his teeth were about to break from grinding them too hard. Under everyone’s disdainful gaze, he kicked the box that contained the diamond earrings at her feet. Then he turned around and got into his sports car.

At this time, Jessica, who was standing slightly apart from the crowd, was watching with her mouth open. She even forgot to swallow the milk tea in her mouth. When she finally came to her senses, she gulped before screaming in excitement.

-Roxane Alvarez! You met such a high-end man, but you didn’t even tell me about it? It’s too much! You have to buy me a meal. No, at least two meals.

…

After getting into the car, Sebastien let go of Roxane’s hand and placed it on the floor of the car, leaning it against the front seat.

Roxane reached for her bag. After hesitating for a few seconds, she looked down and asked:

-Did you come specially to pick me up?

She remembers him asking her in the morning what time her classes were over.

Sebastien leaned back in the seat. He looked at her and looked away before saying:

– It’s on its way.

Hearing this, the driver couldn’t help but glance at the rearview mirror. “I remember that Assistant Patrice said that President Flores had declined all his social engagements for the evening…”

Roxane nodded. She thought Sebastien was really nice. He was so busy, but he still took the time to come pick her up. Plus, she was only his friend’s sister, not his biological sister. In any case, whether it was picking her up or helping her, he really helped her a lot. Therefore, she said:

– THANKS.

Sebastien closed his eyes and said:

– No need for that.

She didn’t say anything else. She turned to watch the landscape rush past her. Her eyelashes framed her eyes as the sun lit up her face.

Sebastien slowly opened his eyes at this moment. He looked at the young woman next to him out of the corner of his eye. His eyes seemed to no longer be as bright as before and his face seemed covered. Overall, she looked pretty pitiful.

Moon Pavilion.

Roxane was about to go upstairs when Sebastien shouted:

-Roxane Alvarez.

– Eh?

She came to her senses and looked at him in confusion.

Roxane’s delicate face and clear, bright eyes gave her an innocent look, arousing tenderness from others.

Sebastian felt a strange feeling in his heart. However, it was so fleeting that he didn’t notice it at all. He handed his jacket to the housekeeper before saying casually:

-I want to eat the noodles you cook tonight.

Not only was she knocked out, but the butler was also knocked out. “He wants to eat Miss Alvarez’s noodles? Is he implying that the chef I found isn’t up to his expectations?”

After regaining her senses, Roxane asked the butler:

– Do we have the broth for the chicken soup?

– Yes,

the butler replied hurriedly.

Then she said to Sebastien:

– I’ll put my things in the room first before cooking.

Sebastian nodded.

Following this, the butler shyly asked:

– Sir, are you unhappy with the boss?

He glanced at the butler and said:

– No.

The butler wanted to ask more questions, but Sebastian had already walked up the stairs with his long legs.
