AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

In a simple gray room lit by a yellow floor lamp.

The exposed lean body of a man moved closer as his strong arms held Roxane beneath his body. Sweat ran down his face and landed on his neck.

Sebastian’s eyes burned like lava as he looked at her. It felt like his gaze was going to burn her alive. He leaned down, pressing his face against hers, before saying hoarsely:

-Roxane…

The dream seemed to overlap reality for a moment. When she woke up from the ridiculous dream, she saw Sebastian’s dark eyes looking at her.

He was about to cover Roxane with a blanket, but he didn’t expect her to wake up suddenly. He looked at her, slightly surprised, as he asked:

-Did I wake you up?

The blanket covered her from neck to toe.

Roxane immediately remembered the scenes from her dream. When she thought of Sebastian’s exposed upper body, his slightly flushed face, and the sweat running down his face, her face, ears, and neck turned red immediately. Even her hands seemed to be red as she gripped the blanket tightly. She covered half of her face with the blanket before rushing off, shaking her head in response to Sebastian’s question.

He was a little worried when he saw that Roxane’s expression wasn’t quite right. He asked :

-Why is your face so red? Are you not feeling well?

As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out to touch her forehead so he could check her temperature. However, Roxane quickly turned away, dodging his hand. Not only that, she even covered her entire head with the blanket after that. Following this, his muffled voice echoed in the air.

– I’m doing well. I’m just a little tired. I want to sleep for a while.

Sebastien lowered his hand which was frozen in the air. His dark eyes flashed briefly before he said softly:

– All right. Then you should rest. Call me if you need anything.

The person under the blanket didn’t respond at all.

A trace of confusion appeared on Sebastian’s face. He stood next to her for a moment before turning around and returning to his seat. His voice was cold when he said:

– Continue.

The executives quickly exchanged glances. They could clearly tell he wasn’t in a good mood. They felt that they had reassessed the weight of the new Madame Flores.

After Roxane heard increasingly faint footsteps, she finally lowered the blanket slightly, revealing a pair of glowing eyes. She turned slightly, and when she saw that Sebastian had returned to his seat, she finally pulled the blanket down. She bit her lip and pinched her arm in frustration.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“How can I have such an obscene dream? Besides, the other party was… Sebastian! It’s over, it’s over! I must have been influenced by Jessi! How could I have this kind of disordered dream?”

There was still about an hour before the plane landed. She was no longer sleepy so she put on her headphones and listened to the Buddhist Heart Sutra. Then she sang inwardly over and over again:

“Form is emptiness, and emptiness is form. Emptiness is no different from form, and form is no different from emptiness.”

After chanting the Buddhist sutra for a long time, she found that her heart was still beating in her chest. Her mind was filled with the sound of Sebastian’s heavy breathing.

“It’s finish!”

…

The plane landed smoothly at M City International Airport.

During all this time, unless absolutely necessary, Roxane did not speak to Sebastien. She was really afraid that he might say that she had had an inappropriate dream about him.

Meanwhile, Sebastien looked at Roxane with a complicated look. He wanted to speak several times but hesitated. In the end, he didn’t say anything and returned to the company first.

…

After Logan dropped Roxane off at the Moon Pavilion, she first took a shower before going online to check the statement released by the Flores Corporation’s public relations department. Along with the statement, a copy of their marriage certificate had also been released.
