AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Chapter 376: I dreamed of your childhood.



Roxane saw a Bentley parked on the side of the road when she walked towards the school gate. The back window was half down, revealing the man’s handsome features.

Her eyes lit up and she almost ran.

– What are you doing here?

As soon as she got into the car, Sebastien leaned over and kissed her on the forehead.

– To pick up Madame Flores from school, of course.

Roxane’s face heated up. She looked at the driver out of the corner of her eye. Luckily the driver didn’t look over.

“Just let Logan take me. You don’t have to come specially to pick me up.

Sebastian held her hand tightly and looked at her with warm eyes.

-I wanted to see you as soon as possible.

Roxane hid her face in her arms. His heart was numb and the corners of his mouth were so wide that they almost reached the backs of his ears.

On the way back, they experienced traffic spikes. Roxane sat in the car for a long time and couldn’t help but yawn.

Sebastien touched his head and asked the driver:

– What is going on ?

The driver rolled down the window and looked ahead. He has answered :

– I think there’s a car accident ahead of us.

They were swept away by the traffic and could only wait for the traffic to clear.

Sebastien saw that Roxane kept yawning.

– Are you sleepy?

She nodded.

– So sleepy…

Speaking of which, it was his fault. He knew she started school today, but he still pestered her endlessly last night.

-Then get some sleep. I’ll wake you up when we get home. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead.

Roxane’s eyelids were too heavy and she couldn’t help but droop. After saying “okay”, she closed her eyes and fell asleep shortly after.

The tired birds returned to the forest and the lights just came on. The lights of the human world and the Milky Way in the night sky reflected each other, painting the city in a layer of warm colors.

The Bentley stopped at the entrance to the villa. Sebastien looked down at the girl sleeping in his arms. Her thin lips were curled into a slight smile, and her eyes were full of tenderness.

He couldn’t bear to wake her up, so he carefully carried her and entered the villa.

Because he didn’t want to wake her up, every step he took was extremely slow and light, and he looked at the girl in his arms from time to time.

The lights in the villa were as bright as day. The butler was about to speak when Sebastian looked up and glanced at him.

The butler was stunned. Seeing Roxane sleeping soundly in his arms, he immediately moved aside and carefully reminded others not to make any noise.

Sebastien carried her upstairs, entered the bedroom and carefully placed her on the bed. He was about to pull the quilt over her.

Roxane frowned and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her blond forehead. Her expression was solemn and uncomfortable, as if she was having a nightmare.

Her red lips closed slightly as if she was whispering something, but her voice was so soft that he couldn’t hear her clearly even if he lowered his head and leaned close to her lips.

A line of tears slowly escaped Roxane’s curled eyelashes and she began to sob silently.

Sebastien frowned and hesitated for a moment. His warm palm caressed his cheek and he cried softly in a low, hoarse voice:

– Baby, baby… baby…

Roxane suddenly opened her eyes. The mist in her eyes condensed into beads and unfurled, clinging to her white skin. She looked very pitiful.

Her moist eyes were a little dull and empty until a soft, worried voice rang in her ears.

– Baby, what’s wrong? What did you dream about?

Roxane’s blurry eyes gradually regained their focus. When she looked at him, she suddenly stood up and hugged his neck. His voice was choked with sobs.

– Mr. Seb, Mr. Seb.

Sebastien hugged her and gently stroked her back.

– What’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare?

Roxane gasped and bit her lip without saying a word, tears falling silently.

Sebastien could feel her fear and unease. He pressed his lips to her forehead.

– It’s good. I am here. No matter what you see, you don’t have to be afraid.

Roxane loosened her grip on his arm and looked up at him. The image of him covered in blood appeared in his mind, and his tears fell again…

Sebastian gently wiped away her tears with his fingers, his voice helpless and distressed.

-What did you dream of?

Almost at the same moment, she decided to protect Sebastien!

No one was allowed to hurt his Sebastian!

In the past, it was always him who protected her. In the future, it would be his turn to protect him.

She wasn’t so scared after making her decision. His eyes gradually became firm. She sniffed and said in a strangled voice:

– I… I dreamed of your childhood.

She looked at him with her moist eyes and pouted her red lips slightly. She said in a distressed and angry voice:

– I saw Mylene punish you by making you stand in the fountain. I wanted to go up and hit her, but I couldn’t!

Maybe it was because women were born to be actors, or maybe it was because Roxane had promised not to lie to him again, Sebastien didn’t doubt her words.

-You can not only see what is happening in the future, how can you also see the past!

– I don’t know why either, but I just saw it.

Roxane’s red face was filled with sadness.

– You must have been very sad at the time.

Sebastien avoided her gaze and slightly opened his thin lips.

– It’s all in the past. Besides, it’s been so many years. I don’t really remember how I felt at that moment.

He could never forget this hellish life.

When Lorraine died, Mylene always looked at him with cold and hateful eyes, scolding him or beating him. She asked again and again,

-Did you push Lorraine down?

“Even if you don’t admit it, I know you pushed Lorraine. I knew this day would come sooner or later. You are a demon…

– Are you the one who should die? Why don’t you just die?NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

He didn’t understand why she was always so distant and suspicious of him when they were both his children!

He didn’t understand why she couldn’t love him as much as she loved Lorraine. Why did she always call him the devil!

During the period when he was tortured by her, no matter how she abused him, he did not resist or tell his father.

It was because Mylene’s gaze remained on him the longest during this period. His body was in great pain, but he was secretly happy in his heart.

He was happy that his mother could finally see her.

Sometimes he wondered if he was really a demon.

Did he really deserve to die?

After being tortured to the end, he felt that he could really be a demon, a pervert…

On the one hand, he instinctively resisted Mylene’s approach, but on the other hand, he wanted her gaze to stop on him.

However, he didn’t want Roxane to know. He didn’t want her to know the twisted and evil thoughts in her heart, and he didn’t want her to cry anymore.

Roxane hugged her waist and used almost all her strength to say hoarsely:

“I will protect you from now on. I will never let anyone hurt you again.

Sebastien touched her head and said softly:

– Okay, don’t cry. I’ll wring out a towel for you to dry your face.

She let go of his arm and looked at his tall back as he walked into the bathroom. She raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and her eyes became more determined and bright.

– I can do it. I will definitely be able to protect you.

As for those who want to harm us, I will certainly make them suffer.
