AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Just as Roxane was leaving the exhibition center, she heard Diego calling her.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

-Roxy! Roxane!

She stopped in her tracks and turned to see Diego rushing over. She looked at him suspiciously, thinking: ‘Why is he looking for me instead of Leila?’

He stood in front of her and smiled warmly. His attitude was completely different from the one he had towards Leila. He asked :

-Why did you walk so quickly? Why didn’t you wait for me?

She frowned slightly.

-Why should I wait for you?

The smile on Diego’s face froze for a moment. He quickly recovered and asked:

– Did you know that our company is the sponsor of the competition?

She shook her head. ‘Why would I know something like that?’

Diego sighed helplessly.

-So, do you know why I’m here today?

She shook her head again.

– Isn’t it because you’re the godfather?

– Although I am the godfather, I do not need to be here. I came here especially to see you, Diego said.

– See me?

She frowned.

-What is there to see?

Diego was rendered speechless by her words. He took a few deep breaths before saying:

– Roxane, although we are separated, we can still be friends, right? It doesn’t have to be like that, right?

She nodded.

– Indeed.

He had just breathed a sigh of relief when she continued to say bluntly:

– But I don’t want to be friends with you.

-…

– For what?

Diego’s expression turned grim. He thought of Sebastien and asked:

– Is it because this man doesn’t allow it?

She shook her head.

-It has nothing to do with him. I don’t want to be friends with you because I don’t like your mother. She doesn’t like me and has always been sarcastic with me. I don’t like your sister either. She is arrogant and unreasonable. More importantly, she’s always trying to get me into trouble. Oh, I don’t like your father either. He’s a cheater.

-…

Diego felt like he had been stabbed several times in a row. Finally, after regaining his composure, he asked:

– And me ? You, do you really not love me anymore?

He still couldn’t believe it. After leaving the marriage, he was only abroad for a short time. However, when she returned, she no longer loved him and even married another man.

– Diego, I’m really sorry that you and Miss Leila broke up because of me. Therefore, I no longer blame you for leaving during our marriage. I did my best for you when I told Grandma I wanted to cancel our wedding.

– Roxy, you misunderstood. I didn’t intend to abandon you. It’s just that Leila…

She didn’t allow him to finish speaking. She said :

– It’s good that you left that day. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known that you are very different from the person I remember, Roxane said.

– What?

He didn’t understand Roxane’s words.

She didn’t explain. Her smile was dazzling and sincere as she said:

-Now that Miss Byrd is back, from her actions it seems she still has feelings for you. You can start again. I wish you both the best.

Roxane’s honest words were like a knife that repeatedly stabbed Diego’s heart.

His expression was stiff and his hands were clenched tightly. Listening to him wish him and another woman made his internal organs hurt. He took a deep breath and said:

– Roxane, it is impossible for me and Leila to be together because I am truly in love with…

He was interrupted again before he could finish his words.

– Roxane you…

Hearing this voice, Roxane’s eyes lit up. She turned around and saw Sebastien walking towards her. She quickly rushed to him and asked:

– Why are you here ?

She could barely hide her joy at seeing Sebastien.

He wrapped his arm around her shoulder. He lowered his head to look at her affectionately, saying:

– The meeting ended early. Didn’t I promise to take you to the Sky Garden?

Roxane, who had been painting for five hours, was starving. She squeezed his arm and said impatiently:

-Then hurry up. I am really hungry…

As soon as Sebastian appeared, it was as if she couldn’t see anyone else in her world. All she could see was Sebastian.

He smiled slightly and said:

– All right.

He squeezed Roxane’s shoulder and led her to the car that was parked on the side of the road. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Diego standing nearby. His eyes shone coldly.

Diego stood rooted to the spot, frozen. Although the sun was hot, he was cold. He felt shivers run through his body and he couldn’t help but shake.

…

After getting into the car, Sebastien started kissing her.

Roxane said shyly:

-There is someone, someone…

Logan tactfully lifted the dark glass of the partition again.

-…

Sebastien continued to kiss her for a moment before saying in his husky, sexy voice:

– You worked hard. It’s a reward before our meal.

Roxane’s eyes were moist as she complained softly:

-You’re just… just taking advantage of me…

He kissed her again.

She was so shy that she closed her eyes as he kissed her.

On the other hand, despite his passionate and hot kisses, Sebastian’s eyes were cold and provocative as he looked out the car window that had not been rolled up.

From Diego’s point of view, he could clearly see Sebastien and Roxane kissing.

Roxane didn’t push Sebastien away and even took the initiative to wrap her arms around his neck as she responded shyly and enthusiastically.
