AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

– Hey, don’t bring up my dark past! Jessica said indignantly. When she first met Enzo, she was dazzled by his appearance. Sadly, the more she interacted with him, the more disillusioned she became. The fact that she loved Enzo had become her dark past.

Roxane laughed.

– Okay, okay, I won’t say another word about it!

Jessica took out a tube of anti-scar cream and handed it to Roxane, saying:

– My relative works in a beauty clinic, so I specifically asked him about this. Remember to apply it every day so that the scar disappears quickly.

Roxane made no fuss and accepted the tube of cream easily.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

– THANKS.

As the duo headed to campus, Jessica asked:

– By the way, how are you planning to celebrate your birthday this year?

– Hmm?

Roxane looked confused.

Jessica patted Roxane on the head and said:

– I knew you would forget it. The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching in a few days. After that, it would be your birthday.

– It’s still so far away! said Roxane.

It was only August; his birthday was in September.

-How early is it? It’s your 20th birthday this year, so your family is probably going to throw you a birthday party or something, right? Jessica asked.

After all, his 20th birthday was a milestone in M City.

– My grandmother’s health is not good, so I don’t really want a big party. We can celebrate by just having a meal, Roxane said with a shrug. She didn’t have much interest in celebrating her birthday. In the past, her grandmother cooked two of her favorite dishes on her birthdays.

“That’s good,” Jessica said.

After thinking about it for a moment, she said:

-So, I’m going to throw you a birthday party! I will make sure you don’t regret your 20th birthday.

Roxane did not respond. Compared to his birthday, there was something more important on his mind right now.

Late in the afternoon.

She was afraid that Enzo would pick her up in his sports car, so she had left early to have a hotpot with Jessica.

When Enzo called, she said:

-Brother, you don’t need to come get me next time. You work so hard, after all.

Although he had made a pointless journey, he was not angry. He only said:

– All right. We should take advantage of this capitalist!

Roxane:

-…

It was almost 9 p. m. when Jessica dropped Roxane off at Moon Pavilion in her Mercedes-Benz.

Seeing that Sebastien hadn’t returned yet, Roxane couldn’t help asking the butler about it.

The butler was quite intelligent. As soon as he heard Roxane’s words, he asked:

“Miss Alvarez, is there anything you need?” If it’s urgent, I can call Mr. Flores.

“No need,” said Roxane. She didn’t want to disrupt Sebastian’s work, after all. She rushed to her room, thinking that there were still a few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival so she still had time to talk to Sebastian.

When Sebastien returned, it was already after 11 p. m.

The butler took his coat and hesitated for a moment before saying:

“Miss Alvarez seemed to have something to say to you, sir.

Sebastian responded with a nod and went upstairs. He had planned to go back to his room to shower before resting, but when he saw the lights through the crack under Roxane’s bedroom door, he stopped in his tracks. “It’s so late, but she’s still not asleep?”

While he was still considering whether to wait until the next morning to talk to her, his hand had already knocked on the door as if it had a life of its own.

A crisp voice echoed from the room.

– Come in.

-Why aren’t you asleep yet?

Roxane placed her iPad on the table before saying:

– I’m not sleepy yet so I decided to draw.

When Sebastian glanced at the iPad, he saw a slightly familiar animated character.

When she saw that Sebastien was looking at his drawing, she held the pen in her hand nervously without saying anything.

Sebastien returned his gaze to her little face just before asking:

-Did you look for me earlier?
