AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Roxane rolled her eyes before saying without any context:

– Mina is only 19 this year. She is a year younger than me.

– Eh?

Sebastien was even more perplexed. He didn’t understand what Mina’s age had to do with him.

Roxane repeated:

-She’s a year younger than me! You can’t love him. Otherwise, people will really think you are a pervert.

– Like her? I don’t even care if it’s a dog or a person, said Sebastien. He wasn’t interested in Mina Rios at all, so he really didn’t want to waste time discussing such an insignificant person.

Hearing Sebastien’s words, Roxane laughed. All the irritation in his heart instantly disappeared.

When Sebastian looked at the bright smile on her face, the corners of his lips twitched slightly and he shook his head slightly. He really didn’t understand women. He couldn’t keep up with Roxane’s mood, which was as capricious as the weather.

…

Sebastien brought Roxane to the Sky Garden restaurant for lunch.

Sky Garden Restaurant was the most famous restaurant in M City. Apart from its delicious cuisine, it was also famous for its environment. Under normal circumstances, reservations would need to be made in advance. However, this did not apply to Sebastien, who was a platinum VIP of the restaurant. He didn’t need a reservation to eat and be seated at the best table.

While he looked at the menu, Roxane looked inside the restaurant. Even though it was almost winter, it felt like it was spring in the restaurant. The scent of flowers permeated the air, and it was refreshing.

– This restaurant is very famous. I begged my brother for a long time, but he didn’t bring me here and said it was too expensive, Roxane said. She didn’t expect that the one who brought her here would be Sebastian.

After he finished ordering the food, he handed the menu to the waiter and said:

– Tell the director to come.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Shortly after the waiter left, the manager, dressed in a suit, approached the duo’s table. He respectfully asked:

– Mr. Flores, what can I do for you?

“This is my wife, Roxane Alvarez,” said Sebastien, looking at the young woman sitting in front of him.

Roxane instinctively straightened her back when he introduced her, looking like a student being called out by the teacher.

A hint of surprise briefly flashed in the director’s eyes when he looked at Roxane before saying:

– Madame Flores, this is our first meeting. Please don’t take it to heart that I didn’t recognize you.

She was already used to the Moon Pavilion staff calling her Madame Flores. However, this was the first time anyone outside of the Moon Pavilion had addressed her as Madame Flores. For a moment, she didn’t know how to react. After a while, she only smiled kindly and said:

– Good morning.

The director didn’t expect Sebastien’s wife to be so nice. It was as if a spring breeze had blown when she spoke. His smile deepened as he said praisingly:

– Madame Flores, not only are you beautiful, but even your voice is beautiful.

Roxane was slightly embarrassed by these words so she quickly picked up her glass and drank from it to hide her embarrassment.

Sebastian frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy. He said in an icy tone:

– Okay, you can leave.

The headmaster bowed slightly and smiled at Roxane before turning to leave.

She also returned the smile.

-…

Sebastian rubbed the bridge of his nose, suddenly regretting having called the director.

Roxane waited until the director was out of earshot before curiously asking:

– Why did you call the director?

“He even specially introduced me as his wife…”

Sebastien lowered his hand and said softly

-Then you can come here whenever you want in the future. You can put it under my tab. He knew she would refuse him so he added:

– I have a stake in this restaurant. There is a special discount for me. Additionally, it can also be deducted from your brother’s bonus. Its monthly bonus is enough for you to eat here a few times a month.

Roxane’s bright eyes widened as she exclaimed:

– My brother’s monthly premium is so high?

– Then I can consider eating here once a month!

Sebastien smiled and said:

– It’s true. There is no need for you to transfer money to him in the future. He is much richer than you. Then, after a while, he excused himself and went to the bathroom.

After Sebastien left, Roxane took her phone and sent a text message to Jessica.

Roxane: Jessi, guess where I am now?

Jessica: Where? Don’t tell me you’re on Sebastien’s bed?
