AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

– What grandma wants to tell you is that no matter how others look at you or what they say, the most important thing is that you know who you are and that the people who love you know who you are are.

– Before, grandmother had a confused mind, thinking that Diego was a good boy. I thought you would be able to live a stable life with him, and I didn’t expect it to ruin your life. I know that you married little Flores so that I would feel comfortable. It must have been hard for you.

Sebastian stopped reading at this point and turned to look at Roxane.

She had stopped playing with the bracelet in her hand and was looking at him. His red eyes held a hint of surprise.

Then, Sebastien continued reading.

-Little Flores is a good child. Grandma knows that you will definitely continue to live well. Grandma will feel comfortable when you have a good house.

– Don’t be sad because of grandmother. Grandma lived a very happy life. I had your grandfather, your father, you and your brother. In the future, when grandma is not around, you will have to visit your parents more often. I was the one who insisted on taking you back then. They were also very helpless. Don’t blame them. They are the same as me; They love you and always will.

– Roxane, you are grandmother’s precious baby. Do not be afraid. You must believe that you came into this world for a purpose. Everything in life has its meaning. You should be happy. You are a child favored by destiny, and you are the most unique existence.

– Grandma is really reluctant to part with you, but it’s time for grandma to look for your grandfather. If we’re separated for too long, I’m afraid your grandfather will run off with another little old lady. We must live well tomorrow. No matter what difficulties you encounter, don’t be discouraged. Look around you. You have your parents, your brother, Little Flores, and… your grandmother, who will always love you.

After Sebastian finished reading, he looked up and met Roxane’s teary eyes.

Tears had long welled up in Roxane’s eyes. They fell from her eyes as she whispered in a barely audible voice:

– So grandmother… knew everything…

Sebastien placed the letter back in the envelope before taking a deep breath and saying in a low, hoarse voice:

– Cry. You will feel better if you cry.

Roxane hadn’t shed a single tear since the incident with Old Madame Alvarez.

The Alvarez family’s parents didn’t say anything on the surface, but they all discussed it privately. They said that old Mrs. Alvarez loved Roxane for nothing all these years after seeing that Roxane didn’t shed a single tear after old Mrs. Alvarez died. They said that even a dog knows how to be loyal to its owner and that she is just an ungrateful girl. No one considered Roxane’s feelings for old Madame Alvarez at all. How could tears alone represent filial piety and love? Often the immense grief was silent. However, these people continued to denounce Roxane as an ungrateful person who only knew how to eat and drink. They were so happy that they seemed to be attending a wedding banquet instead of a funeral.

Roxane leaned into Sebastien’s arms and cried until she was out of breath. His pale face turned red from crying immediately.

Sebastian gently wiped the tears from her face and didn’t say any words of consolation or persuade her to stop crying. Crying was the best way for her to express her grief. If she continued to hold it, it would become infected and eventually harm her. An example of this was his sleepwalking episode.

Roxane continued to cry until she had trouble breathing and almost passed out.

Sebastien poured him a glass of lukewarm water and brought it to his mouth. His voice was low, hoarse and soft as he coaxed her:

– Be good and drink some water.

Roxane sobbed. Tears still fell from the corners of her eyes as she drank the water.

-Okay, stop crying…

Sebastien lowered his head and kissed the tears on his face before saying:

-If you continue to cry, I’m afraid that grandma will look for me to settle the score with me.

Roxane looked at him and asked:

– W-why would she settle the score with you?

“Grandma will definitely wonder why I didn’t coax you since you’re crying so hard,” Sebastien said, reaching out to tuck a lock of her hair behind her ear.

Roxane sniffed and asked hoarsely:

“So why didn’t you coax me?”

– I want to cuddle you, but you cry too hard, said Sebastien with a heavy sigh,

-You cried so hard that my heart hurt. For a while, I didn’t know how to coax you.

-…

Then, she hit him gently with her fist before saying:

-You have a really casual tongue!

Sebastian allowed him to hit his chest.

“As long as you’re willing to talk to me and not shut yourself away, you can hit me a few more times. However, I think you should use something else to hit me. I’m afraid you’ll hurt your hands.

Sebastien’s principles had all disappeared in front of her.

Roxane looked at him with tears glistening in her eyes. She really wanted to say that he was too fat, but when she looked at his handsome face, she really couldn’t associate him with the word “fat”. In the end she just pouted and said:

“You’re just trying to deceive me.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“No,” said Sebastien, feeling wronged, as he lowered his head to press his cheek against hers,

– I’m serious. As long as it makes you feel better, you can do whatever you want.

Roxane sniffed again before asking in an uncertain tone:

– I, I can really do what I want?

Sebastien nodded without hesitation.

Roxane immediately reached up to unbutton his suit before starting to unbutton his shirt.

Sebastien was stunned. When he came to his senses, his ears turned red immediately. He looked at the entrance with worry and nervousness before quickly grabbing her slender wrist to stop her and say:

– Roxane, grandmother just left, and we’re outside now… This is inappropriate…

-What is inappropriate?

She frowned and looked at him sadly.

“You’re not going back on your words, are you?

Sebastien swallowed.

– No no…

It was really inappropriate to act like that in this place when an elder had just left, but if she really wanted to do that…

Sebastien’s hand that held her wrist loosened slightly.

Roxane shook his hand and continued to unbutton his collar. When she unbuttoned the fourth button, her chest was revealed.

Sebastian’s ears couldn’t be redder right now. He was leaning against the sofa and his clothes were in disarray. There was something appealing about the way decadent he looked right now. Fortunately, he kept a low profile and barely made the headlines. For this reason, few people knew what he looked like. Otherwise, just his face was enough to drive most women in M City crazy.

Roxane’s eyes moved from his handsome face to his chest before returning to his face again.

For the first time, Sebastien, usually calm, lost his composure. He swallows. It was simply unprecedented for the young woman in front of him to take such an initiative.
