AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Sebastien held Roxane’s hand as they exited the elevator towards the restaurant.

She pursed her lips as she looked around. ‘Are we having a meal at Sky Garden for my birthday?’

When they entered the restaurant, it was pitch black; the lights were all out.

As she looked around in confusion, Sebastian looked at the headmaster at the entrance meaningfully.

The director quickly clapped his hands.

Following this, the pitch-black restaurant suddenly lit up with a warm light.

All the flowers that decorated the restaurant were replaced by roses that Roxane loved. Garlands were wrapped around the roses, making them even more beautiful.

There were purple words taped to the wall, and they said: Baby, Happy Birthday!

Rose petals were scattered on the floor.

At this time, a violinist started playing the violin.

Roxane covered her mouth in surprise. Her bright eyes were filled with joy. She had seen countless scenes like this in dramas, but she was not moved. However, now that she experienced it, she found it difficult to remain impassive.

– Do you like to?

Sebastian asked although he already got the answer from her cheerful expression.

She nodded several times. It was impossible for him not to like it.

– It’s good that you like it. The whole day spent decorating this place was not wasted, Sebastian said in a deliberately casual manner.

Roxane was surprised.

– Did you personally decorate the place?

He nodded.

– Every vase, every rose and every balloon was personally prepared by me!

He didn’t know what she liked. He remembered the scene during Jessica’s attempt to confess to Enzo and was inspired by it.

Roxane was even more moved after listening to Sebastien’s words. She hugged her waist and said guiltily:

– Seb, I’m sorry!

– Hmm?

He looked at her with an affectionate look.

She raised her head to look at him before shyly saying:

-I thought you were mad at me and didn’t want to celebrate my birthday with me. I secretly scolded you in my heart.

Sebastien frowned slightly.

-How did you scold me?

“I… I said that you are heartless and cold and that you could give birth to a son with three legs,” she replied. The more she spoke, the lower her voice became. She even took a step back, frightened by his anger.

-…

The corners of Sebastien’s lips twitched.

– Isn’t my son your son? Are you stupid?

He raised his hand to touch her forehead.

Roxane quickly covered her forehead and said:

– I was wrong ! I will not give birth to a son! I will give birth to a girl instead!

Sebastien withdrew his hand saying:

– It’s good. You are not wrong. It’s true that sons have three legs…

– Eh??

He smiled at her meaningfully.

Realization dawned on Roxane. She covered her burning face with both hands and groaned inwardly: “My mind is dirty!” I have a dirty mind! I really understood what he meant!”

The smile on Sebastian’s face grew. Then, he turned to glance at the director.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

At this time, the manager pushed a dining cart. Roses surrounded a silver tray covered with a silver lid.

Instead of leading Roxane to the dining table, he picked up a rose before kneeling on one knee.

Roxane was stunned.

Sebastien knelt in front of her with a rose in his hand. He looked at her as if he were looking at the sun. He was respectful and loving.

– Roxy, will you marry me? Sebastian asked.

At that moment, for Roxane, Sebastien’s voice was even more pleasant than the melodious sound of the violin.

His heart was beating wildly in his chest. Her emotions rose wildly as she stammered:

– I, I… Didn’t I already marry you?

They had already registered their marriage, after all. Therefore, she didn’t expect him to get down on one knee and propose to her.

Sebastien smiled slightly as he slowly said:

– The order of our relationship is the opposite of what is conventional. I want you to have what others have. In love, I hope that you will always be envied by others and that you will never need to envy others.

People proposed to each other when they were in love, but they did it backwards; They had ordered the wrong thing. However, it didn’t matter. He was determined to give all these things to Roxane.

Roxane’s defenses collapsed when she heard Sebastien’s words. Her eyes reddened as tears threatened to fall. She reached out to take the rose, saying:

– Yes!

How could she say no?

Sebastien smiled as he stood up. He removed the silver cover. There was no food on the silver platter but a dazzling diamond ring that looked like it weighed no less than five carats.

He held her hand, intending to help her put on the ring.

“You already gave me a ring,” Roxane said, showing him the ring on her ring finger.

– It’s an engagement ring. You can wear it during our wedding, Sebastian said, sliding the new ring down his finger.

– Our marriage?

Roxane’s eyes widened. She didn’t expect them to get married.

– Yes. Isn’t it natural for us to have a real marriage? He said, lowering his head and gently kissing her hand:

– We will not only have a wedding, but we will have the greatest wedding ever.

He wanted to marry her in a grand and glorious way. He wanted the world to know that she was the wife of Sebastien Flores.

Roxane hugged her waist tightly and said:

-I don’t care if we have a wedding or not. As long as I’m with you, as long as you don’t ignore me, I’ll be very happy.

The things she wanted had always been very simple.

Sebastien’s gaze became more and more gentle as he said in a low and hoarse voice:

-I was wrong before. You can take your time to consider studying abroad.

She was overjoyed. She raised her head and looked at him in disbelief, asking:

– Really ? You won’t object? Do you want me to think about it?

Sebastian nodded.

– It’s up to you. I will respect your decision.

She either didn’t care or forgot that they were in public at the time. As if no one was watching, she jumped up excitedly and wrapped her arms around Sebastian’s neck and her legs around his waist. She said :

– Seb, you’re so good! I really love you to death!

He held out his hand to stop her from falling. He lowered his head and whispered in her ear:

-Aren’t you afraid of being seen by others?

After all, she had always been embarrassed when seen by the helpers at home.

Roxane immediately jumped up and looked around. Fortunately, everyone had left the restaurant, and only the two were left.

Sebastien led her to the dining table by the window before saying:

– Sit down first. I’m going to the bathroom.

– All right.

She nodded obediently. After he left, she immediately took out her phone and took a photo of the restaurant and its decoration. Then she took a photo of the ring on her hand. She sent the photos to Jessica. She was so excited she couldn’t even type. Instead, she sent a voicemail.
