AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Christine wanted to surprise Sebastien so that she would not return to the banquet hall with Roxane. Instead, she found a place to hide.

Roxane returned to the room just in time to see Sebastien, dressed in his black suit, standing on the stage. He spoke into the microphone he held in his hand; his low, magnetic voice drifted into everyone’s ears when he spoke. Coupled with her beautiful appearance, many female employees couldn’t help but shout with excitement.

Roxane was filled with pride and joy. Then she couldn’t help but feel jealous.

“It’s quite embarrassing to have a boyfriend who is too handsome… There are too many love rivals…”

Lucile, who was standing next to Roxane, saw the unhappy expression on her face and said comfortingly:

– President Flores is handsome and rich. There are no girls who don’t like him. However, don’t worry. The company’s employees are not the right fit for you.

– Eh? For what?

She asked curiously.

– It’s because President Flores doesn’t look us in the eye, declared Lucile with a smile.

After remembering Sebastien’s dislike of women, the little jealousy in Roxane’s heart disappeared. A small smile appeared on his face. She was proud to be special to him.

At this time, Sebastian’s speech was also finished.

The crowd erupted into warm applause.

Roxane discovered that he was watching her from the stage. She didn’t understand why he was looking at her so she just smiled.

Sebastian’s eyes twinkled as he handed the microphone back to the host and left the stage.

-Ah! President Flores was smiling at you! Lucile placed her hands over her heart and passed out.

Roxane held back her smile and said:

– He smiles at everyone today.

Lucile immediately retorted:

– That’s not true! I’ve been in the business for a few years now. President Flores rarely smiles! He was definitely smiling at you earlier. He loves you so much…

“It’s too exaggerated…”

After Sebastian sat down at the main table, the host began speaking again, announcing the start of dinner.

Roxane looked around and didn’t see Enzo. She asked Lucile, confused:

– Isn’t my brother here?

– Oh, do you remember the performances I told you about? Each department must perform. I heard everyone from IT will be performing so Mr. Alvarez should be backstage preparing for his performance.

Roxane’s eyes lit up.

– Really? I can not wait to be there !

The corners of Lucile’s lips twitched slightly before she gently reminded him:

– I think… I think it’s better not to have such high expectations…

Before she could ask why, the stage lights went out.

The first representation was carried out by the IT department.

One by one, men dressed in traditional robes took the stage, shaking their bodies and hips to the rhythm of the music being played.

Enzo, who wore a wig and was dressed in a traditional white dress, stood in the center. He sang passionately about being a beautiful flower, perky butts, soft and beautiful figures, and seducing Taoist priests.

The expressions of the audience were… indescribable.

Sebastien rubbed his temples with his slender fingers before saying to Patrice, who was next to him:

– From now on, the IT department is prohibited from appearing at the company’s annual dinners.

Patrice nodded quickly. He was also appalled by the group of men on stage.

On the other hand, the group of men on stage didn’t seem to notice the strange looks and expressions in the surrounding area at all. The more they sang and danced, the more energetic they became.

Enzo and the others continued to sing about flirting and seducing Taoist priests with kisses and roses.

Roxane rubbed her arms and shivered before saying:

-I don’t know if the Taoist priest in the song was happy or not. What I do know is that I am about to be suffocated by their passion and energy.

It wasn’t until Enzo left the stage that she was able to look up. She asked carefully:

– Most people at the company probably don’t know that I’m Enzo Alvarez’s sister, right?

Lucile, who finally recovered from the performance, nodded and said:

– Don’t worry. Apart from those in the secretariat and the IT department, the others are probably not aware…

As soon as Lucile’s voice fell…

– Roxane, why are you here?

Enzo’s voice was neither soft nor loud. It immediately attracted the attention of a small group of people.

-…

-Is heaven mad at me?

Although Enzo changed his stage costume, Lucile couldn’t help but think of his shocking performance when she watched him. She stood up and said abruptly:

– I’m going to the bathroom !

After Lucile left, Enzo took the seat she left vacant next to Roxane. He touched her braid and said:

– You are very pretty today. As expected of my sister. You inherited my beauty!

– I inherited it from my mother, declared Roxane, holding back her laughter. After a while, she asked:

– Can’t you sit next to me?

– I don’t want to be the center of attention!

Enzo clicked his tongue before sweeping his seductive eyes over the surrounding people watching them. Then, he gently pulled on her braid before asking:

“You don’t want me to sit next to you?” So who do you want to sit next to? Old Flores?

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Sebastian.

Coincidentally, Sebastian also watched.

When their eyes met, as if provoking Sebastien, Enzo gently pulled on Roxane’s braid.

She was unaware of the subtle interaction between the two men. She reached out and slapped Enzo’s hand, saying:

– Stop pulling on my braids! You’re going to ruin everything!

He leaned back and said casually:

-If I’m wrong, I’ll braid it for you again.

“I want you to do that,” Roxane said grimly.

As everyone already knew, she didn’t let him bother her anymore. She might as well have fun.

Sebastian frowned slightly as he watched the siblings bicker. When Enzo tugged on Roxane’s braids, he pursed his lips before finally turning around to watch the performance on stage. His thoughts gradually drifted to Roxane’s performance on her birthday, and his expression gradually eased.

After a long time, it was finally the highlight of the annual dinner: the raffle!

Everyone had been eagerly waiting for the draw all night, hoping to draw the grand prize.

Lucile, who had returned from the bathroom, clasped her hands and muttered over and over:

– 50, 000 cash prizes, 50, 000 cash prizes, 50, 000 cash prizes…

Meanwhile, Roxane muttered:

“Tablet, tablet, tablet…”

Enzo sneered.

-Why do you care about this? If you want a tablet, I’ll buy it for you.

Roxane glanced at him and said:

– How can it be the same? How can spending money to buy something compare to winning a raffle?

Lucile intervened:

– It’s true, it’s true. Mr. Alvarez, you are a man so you will not understand.

Enzo, who couldn’t understand the two women, only rolled his eyes.

Meanwhile, Sebastien had already taken the stage to present the prizes.

At first, small prizes such as gift cards were given out first. At the end there was the much anticipated prize of 50, 000 in cash.
