AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Sebastien brought Roxane to the Sky Garden for lunch.

She didn’t forget Christine’s affair this time. She hesitated for a moment before saying:

– In fact, I have already met Raoul. He’s not a bad person. He is bright and cheerful. His academic results are also very good.

Sebastien glanced at him nonchalantly and asked:

– SO?

– Christine likes him very much. If we give them a chance, maybe one day they will be a very happy couple…

Sebastien put down his chopsticks. A hint of playfulness flashed in his eyes as he said:

– You didn’t ask me to let him into the company. Instead, you’re asking me to give him and Christine a chance…

– Well, I know you’re not someone who can’t distinguish between work and private matters. If Raoul is really capable, you will not reject him. After all, you really liked my brother whose character is a bit bad…, declared Roxane. Then, as an afterthought, she added:

-Of course, everyone has flaws. Apart from my brother’s sharp tongue, he really has no other faults…

– Raoul is indeed a talented person. If he doesn’t provoke Christine, maybe I’ll give him a chance, Sebastien said indifferently. He didn’t belittle Raoul. It was not at all necessary since Raoul was nothing in his eyes.

Roxane didn’t understand it.

– What do you mean?

Sebastien poured Roxane another glass of fruit juice, saying:

– He once chased a senior for three years. Suddenly he changed his mind and paid attention to Christine just when he was about to graduate. Do you really think there is such a coincidence?

Roxane frowned slightly, somewhat reluctant to believe him.

-Are you saying that Raoul is using Christine? How is it possible ? I don’t think he’s that kind of person. Plus, he even helped me before when Agnes came looking for trouble with me at college. At that time, he didn’t even know my identity.

Sebastien only raised an eyebrow and said nothing.

“Well, since you said that, maybe I’m wrong,” Roxane said. She didn’t like to force others. She had already done her best. If Sebastian didn’t agree, there was really nothing she could do.

At this moment, he suddenly gave way.

– I can allow him to join the company. However, as for how high he can climb, that will depend on his ability.

-Why did you suddenly change your mind? She asked, surprised.

– It’s nothing.

He didn’t care about Christine, but he cared about Roxane. Since Raoul helped Roxane once, he would return the favor once. However, he would only make sure that Raoul was accepted by the company; that was all he would do. As for being with Christine, he could only continue to dream.

– THANKS!

Roxane said enthusiastically. She took her glass and toasted him.

Sebastien smiled slightly. As long as she was happy, he would be happy too.

…

Roxane spent the first week of summer vacation immersed in depravity. This long-neglected man was tirelessly demanding. Each time, she was so exhausted that she fell asleep immediately afterwards. Fortunately, he was very considerate. He would help her clean up and even change her clothes afterwards.

At one point, she even wondered if she should simmer soup to replenish her energy.

Today was no different. She didn’t wake up until 10 a. m. due to the night’s activity the day before. His legs were extremely weak.

As she stood in front of the mirror brushing her teeth, she couldn’t help but cry inwardly: “I really won’t challenge the dignity of an old man in the future!”

Sebastien knew that Roxane was exhausted, so he specifically told the butler not to wake her.

Breakfast had already been prepared and it would be reheated for her whenever she wanted to eat.

As soon as she came down, the butler asked someone to serve breakfast. Then he asked:

– Madam, since you are having a late breakfast, should we delay lunch?

She shook her head.

– I won’t be home for lunch. There is no need to prepare anything.

The butler nodded.

-Where are you going, Madam? I’ll tell Logan to send you.

– I’m going to visit my grandmother in the hospital.

The butler said tactfully:

-So, I’ll prepare some fruit and snacks for you to bring. The Old Lady might like them.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Roxane nodded and did not refuse.

…

When Roxane arrived at the hospital, Sabrina had just finished serving lunch to Old Mrs. Alvarez.

When the old lady saw Roxane, she couldn’t hide her joy at all.

Roxane sat by the bed and held the old lady’s hand, saying:

– Grandma, I miss you so much!

The old lady gently pushed Roxane’s forehead and said:

– Really ? If I remember correctly, your summer vacation started a week ago, right?
