AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

The butler replied:

– The company is busy at the end of the year. Mister just called and said he would be back soon.

She turned to look at the thick snow outside. Her heart was filled with joy when she thought of how Sebastian would soon be home.

As expected, he arrived fifteen minutes later. Although the walk from the car to the door was brief, snow had already begun to accumulate on his black coat and dark hair.

Roxane excitedly ran towards the entrance.

– You are back!

Sebastian heard her cheerful voice as soon as he opened the door and his mood immediately improved. He asked:

– Why are you so happy?

Roxane answered sincerely:

– It’s snowing and you’re back.

He felt like his heart was being electrocuted. He couldn’t help but smile. He was completely unable to resist her direct words. The most fatal thing was that she was completely unaware of how flirtatious his words sounded.

When she saw the snow in Sebastian’s hair, she tiptoed and helped him remove the snow.

-There is snow in your hair…

Sebastian lowered his head obediently, allowing his blond fingers to gently brush away the snow. Heat invades his heart again. After a while, he said teasingly:

-Are you a child? Why are you excited just because of the snow? When you see snow, do you think about building a snowman? Why didn’t you think about the traffic jams in the city due to heavy snow? Garbage collectors also have to work all night to clear snow from the roads. Have you thought about the traffic accidents that could occur?

Roxane: …

“He has a point…”

Sebastien saw her expression change and he reached out to pinch her cheek and asked:

– Are you unhappy?

– No, declared Roxane,

– I think you’re right. Therefore, I will volunteer to help the garbage collectors clean the roads. After that, I’ll come back in the evening and build a snowman.

After saying this, she went upstairs, intending to look for some old clothes with which she could dress the snowman.

Sebastien was surprised. Then, he laughed silently before catching up with her and saying:

– Tomorrow is the annual dinner of the Flores Corporations. Do you want to come with me?

Roxane refused without hesitation.

– No. I’m very busy tomorrow.

– To clear the roads and build a snowman…

Sebastian frowned slightly, feeling as if he had dug a hole for himself. Then, he said,

– The annual dinner takes place in the evening. This won’t stop you from volunteering…

– No, I still don’t want to go.

– Reason?

He didn’t think she would really get angry at his words.

Roxane looked at him and explained:

– I am not an employee of your company and I don’t know anyone. It would be uncomfortable for me to attend the dinner.

In the past, when she was with Diego, she had always sheltered Diego. Maybe because of that, she couldn’t really get close to him. After this relationship, she learned that she couldn’t force things from the heart and that she shouldn’t lose herself because of another person. She had to stay true to herself and clear-headed in a relationship, and she shouldn’t force herself to do things she didn’t want to do for another person. She didn’t know why, but she also felt that she didn’t need to disguise her emotions in front of Sebastian.

He thought about it for a moment before saying:

– It’s my fault for not having considered you. There will be a draw at the end of the evening and the prizes are quite generous. I thought you might be interested.

Roxane’s eyes lit up immediately.

– I wonder what kind of prizes they have prepared?

Sebastien didn’t seem to notice the excitement in Roxane’s eyes as he continued to say:

– I heard from Patrice that the first prize seems to be a 15-day trip to the Maldives. There are also laptops, tablets, phones, cash, and more…

‘Laptop? Tablet?’

Roxane’s heart was instantly moved. The iPad she was using was very old and the memory was too small. She had wanted to change it for a while. She was in a dilemma right now. She had already refused him. If she changed her mind now, she would seem petty and fickle.

Sebastien continued to say:

-Your brother said your luck was very good, so I wanted to see if it was true.

She finally gave up and said:

– It’s not impossible to go there for a while… It will depend on when I finish. If I finish early, I’ll go…

Sebastien said:

– I have nothing to do during the day, so I go with…

– You will come with me ?

She exclaimed in surprise.

Sebastian reached out and touched her face.

– Yes. After all, my girlfriend showed her true colors in front of me.

She turned red. She knew he was teasing her again. She pursed her lips and said

– I won’t talk to you anymore. Good night.

…

The next day.

It was cloudy and the north wind was howling.

The roads were clean since the heavy snow stopped last night and melted before daylight.

Roxane stood in front of the French window, speechless. She had been so happy last night for nothing.

In the afternoon, Patrice brought a few people to Moon Pavilion. Apart from this, boxes of clothes, shoes and jewelry were also brought to the house.

Roxane looked at the hanging clothes and coughed lightly. She asked Sebastien, who was drinking coffee nearby,Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

– Isn’t that a little too exaggerated?

-Such an exaggerated scene only appears in novels and TV series, right?

Sebastien looked at her and said calmly:

– Do you need me to help you choose your clothes?

“No, thank you,” Roxane rejected him.

At this time, one of the people said:

– These dresses are designed by a famous Chinese designer. His creations are very suitable for Asians. Madame Flores, please take a look.

Roxane nodded. The designer was well known for her creations. Not only that, but she was also famous for her touching love story with her husband. She had heard Jessica talk about it about 800 times, so it was hard not to know these things.

After a while, the stylist helped Roxane choose a pink dress with crystal inlays. The dress wasn’t heavy so she wouldn’t feel tired after wearing it all night.

After that, the hairdresser braided her long black hair. It was simple, but it highlighted her cute features.

Her makeup was very natural, except for the crystals that were stuck near the corners of her eyes. They made her eyes brighter and even more beautiful.

When Sebastien put down his book to look at her, who was coming down the stairs, he was stunned. He stared at her without blinking.

Roxane’s high heels were only a little over 2 inches tall, but she was still very careful when walking. She wasn’t used to wearing high heels, after all. The hem of the dress swept the floor as she walked. At that moment, she looked like a fairy who had descended to the mortal world.

When the stylist saw Sebastien’s reaction, she knew she had made the right choice. She said:

– Madame Flores’ appearance is very gentle, so it is not necessary for her to dress maturely. With just a few touches, she is as beautiful as a fairy.

Sebastien didn’t say anything. He nodded slightly to express his satisfaction. Then, he asked Roxane,

– Do you like that?

Although he liked it, he didn’t forget to ask Roxane’s opinion.

She smiled shyly.

– I quite like it.
