AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Just as Roxane turned to leave, she was mercilessly pushed away by Sebastien.

Roxane:???

He frowned. His eyes glowed coldly as he said:

-Are you leaving like that?

She blinked, looking at him in confusion. She didn’t understand why he was suddenly unhappy. Since he had already eaten lunch, why was he stopping him?

Sebastien really wanted to open Roxane’s head to see what was going on in her mind.

They looked at each other as if no one else existed in the world but them.

Meanwhile, when Deborah’s gaze passed past Sebastian’s handsome face, a hint of loneliness could be seen on her face as she looked down. Since Roxane’s arrival, Sebastien only had eyes for her; there was no room for anyone else.

The atmosphere had just become a little strange when a voice suddenly rang out from the door.

– Wow! It’s so lively here!

Roxane turned her head and saw Enzo, who was dressed in a pink shirt with his work badge around his neck.

He entered the office with his hands in his pockets.

-Brother, have you finished your work?

“Not really,” Enzo said, walking towards the couch with a charming smile on his face,

-How could a capitalist let me remain inactive? He squeezes as much work out of me as he can.

Then, Enzo’s eyes fell on the lunch box on the coffee table and said:

– Oh that’s good ! It’s good! I’m starving.

He opened the lunch box and picked up the cutlery from the side and started eating.

– It is …

Deborah wanted to stop Enzo, but it was too late.

Enzo’s actions were too fast. It was as if he was a starving child being given food. He looked like a hungry wolf pouncing on its prey.

Deborah’s face reddened, looking angry.

At that point, Mathis ran over and started punching Enzo.

– This is the food that mom made for dad! You can’t eat it!

– Dad? Enzo raised an eyebrow and looked at Sebastian meaningfully.

Roxane helped Sebastien to explain himself.

– Godfather. Children can’t tell the difference, after all.

Enzo scoffed before turning to look at Mathis. Each of his words was like a needle, and each of his sentences was like a knife when he said:

– Godfather is godfather. Which dad? Didn’t your biological father die a long time ago? His bones have already been reduced to ashes. If he reincarnated quickly, he probably wouldn’t be younger than you. If you have a destiny with him, you might even be sworn brothers with him…

– Shut up!

– Brother…

Deborah and Roxane said at the same time.

Deborah’s face was red with anger and her eyes flashed with pain.

Mathis was young, but he understood adults’ words. He jumped at Enzo angrily. As he hit Enzo, he shouted:

– You’re talking nonsense! This is my dad! This is my dad!

– Mumou!

Deborah pulled Mathis back before turning to say to Enzo:

– Mr. Alvarez, Mumu is just a child. Why are you so mean to him?

Enzo reached up to put his clothes away before pushing the lunch box away and leaning against the couch. He said lazily:

– It’s true. He’s still a child. He cannot tell right from wrong, nor does he understand adult questions. However, it is the adult’s responsibility to teach them. Am I right?

Enzo’s gaze was piercing and knowing, making Deborah feel like she had nowhere to hide her thoughts. She quickly avoided his gaze and hugged Mathis without a word.

Enzo went on to say:

– In order to be with you, Fernand even broke ties with the Lambert family, giving up his right of inheritance to the Lambert family fortune. You let that little kid call Old Flores ‘Daddy’. Aren’t you afraid that Fernand will jump from his grave to settle scores with you?

Deborah looked down slightly. She bit her lip as if trying her best to endure something.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

When Mathis saw the sad expression on his mother’s face, he became even angrier. He cried :

– You have no right to intimidate my mother! I know Father! I have two fathers! They are both very good!

– Good my ass*! Enzo said before taking the lunch box and starting to eat again.

After a while, he continued to say:

-If your father were alive, maybe he would be a good father. Then he gestured towards Sebastien before continuing to say:

“This man here has nothing to do with you. Don’t think that just because you recognize him as your godfather that he is your real father. In the future, he will have his own children with his wife. He will only love his children. He won’t love you, stupid!

– You lie! You lie! Dad will love me! Mathis shouted. Tears started streaming down his face when he thought that Sebastian had other children and didn’t love him.

Deborah’s gaze sharpened as she looked at Enzo. Despite her gentle tone, there was an unmistakable firmness as she said:

– Mr. Alvarez, don’t you think it’s too much to say such words to a child?

The smile on Enzo’s face faded slightly as he replied:

-So, don’t you think it’s too much for you to bring a child and send a married man a lunch box?

There were a few words that Sebastien couldn’t say because of Fernand. Other than that, he really didn’t care about such things; It wasn’t that he was nice.

Everyone cared about their reputation. However, Enzo thought it was nothing compared to his sister’s happiness.

Deborah bit her lip before explaining:

– Sebastien and I are just friends. I just want to express my gratitude.

Enzo’s smile was cold and his eyes were devoid of warmth as he said:

“Oh, I was just joking with you. Why did you take this so seriously?

Deborah had difficulty carrying the crying Mathis before looking at Sebastien and Roxane and saying:

– I’m sorry. I didn’t know the lunch box would cause such an unnecessary misunderstanding. If Mrs. Flores is not happy, I am ready to apologize.
