AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Chapter 372: I promised him before.



The Flores Corporation announced to the public that Raoul would be the executive CEO of the company, and this caused a lot of waves for a while.

Everyone wondered if the Flores Corporation had changed.

The company’s shareholders, big and small, wanted to see Sebastien, but they were all rejected by him because he needed to rest.

They had gathered information about Raoul through various channels. When they learned that he was Sebastian’s brother-in-law, her worried heart was put at ease.

Raoul was only the executive CEO, while Sebastien was still the main shareholder of the Flores Corporation and also the president. On the surface, the company listened to Raoul, but with Sebastien holding the fort behind the scenes, there would naturally be no problem.

The Flores company’s stock prices fluctuated for only two days before quickly recovering.

Raoul’s first major decision after taking over as head of the company was to start a business in City H, precisely taking over all the Long family’s businesses in all industries.

He also personally led a team to City H to make arrangements.

No one said anything, but everyone could tell that the Flores Corporation and the Vitococ Corporation had started a war!

There were people in the industry who took sides, and there were also people who continued to observe. However, employees of both companies had long been tense and hesitant about whether to jump ship…

When everyone was nervous, the calmest one was Sebastien. He stood at the studio door with a pot of tea and knocked gently.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

– Roxy, open the door…

Roxane opened the door and stuck out her little furry head. She sighed.

– Mr. Seb, you knocked on the door five times this afternoon. What are you doing this time?

Sebastian didn’t seem to notice the soft burden between his eyebrows. He smiled.

– I’m here to bring you tea,

Roxane turned to the side to let him enter.

-The wound on your wrist hasn’t healed yet, so you don’t need to bring me tea. If I’m thirsty, I’ll go down and drink some water myself.

Sebastian placed the tray on the round table next to him, poured a cup of black tea and handed it to him.

– You forget me as soon as you start drawing. You don’t even remember if you’re thirsty!

Roxane took the cup. The water temperature was perfect, so she ordered another cup after drinking it.

Sebastien’s gaze fell on the drawing board.

– Homework?

– No.

She hesitated for a moment and answered him honestly,

– The painting that I promised to give to Jonas.

Hearing this name, Sebastien’s eyes darkened and he pursed his lips without saying a word.

Roxane looked closely at his face.

– Are you angry?

Sebastien turned his head to look at her.

-If I said I was angry, wouldn’t you draw it?

Roxane slowly shook her head.

– I promised him before. It’s not good to go back on my word! Plus, he helped us this time.

Without Jonas’ help, she wouldn’t have been able to open the door so easily. If she had to call the police, she didn’t know how long she would have to wait.

Sebastien knew his character. She didn’t like being accountable to others. If someone helped her, she would always remember it in her heart.

Just like how he had helped her back then, even though it was a deal, she felt like he had taken advantage of her.

– Go ahead and draw. I will not bother you anymore.

Sebastian raised his hand and patted her on the head before leaving the studio.

Roxane held her cup of tea and watched the tall figure disappear through the door. She took a deep breath and turned to look at the drawing board behind her. She couldn’t help but bite her red lips…

Under Raoul’s crazy attack, the Vitococ Group quickly fell into a crisis, especially because of Seraphin’s previous corruption, which led to problems in the project. Now that there was a problem with the capital chain, even the bank refused to approve their loans.

Ronald had found a lot of people, and most of them chose to play it safe. Those close to him showed him a clear path.

The outside world did not know exactly what had happened, but the Flores company had clearly offended the Vitococ company by targeting it. If they wanted to live, they could only ask for mercy.

At first, Ronald didn’t know why the person from M City, who he had no connection with, suddenly started targeting him.

It wasn’t until he learned that Barbara and Mylene were in M City that he vaguely guessed something and immediately called them back.

Under his repeated questioning, Barbara finally told the truth. Ronald was so angry that he slapped him on the spot. He looked at Mylene with a cold look and sneered,

– Seraphin, she is the good wife you married! This is great, our Long family will be destroyed in his hands.

Seraphim was also annoyed by his wife’s death-seeking behavior, but he still had to protect her in front of his brother.

-Big brother, calm down! You should know his relationship with the Flores family. He stopped and glanced meaningfully at Barbara.

– In addition, she thinks of Barbara’s happiness and wants to realize Barbara’s deep love.

If Barbara wanted Mylene to take the blame, they wouldn’t be the innocent ones.

Barbara covered her burning cheek and looked at Seraphin with a mischievous look.

-Second uncle, second aunt really only want my happiness?

Before Seraphin could say anything, Ronald turned his head and reprimanded:

– Shut up !

Barbara took a deep breath and said nothing. She just turned her head away.

– I’m going to go to M City to see Sebastien. You better pray that everything goes well when I go there this time. Otherwise …

His voice stopped and he did not continue, but the murderous look that swept over them had already explained the seriousness of the matter.
