AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

When Roxane arrived at the Moon Pavilion, the sun had already set in the west. The tired birds had returned to the forest and the Moon Pavilion was lit by beautiful crystal lamps.

Sebastien had already showered and dressed in a casual outfit. His hands were in his pockets as he walked down the stairs.

– Mr. Seb!

She rushed to him as soon as she entered and saw him.

Sebastian’s eyes became soft as soon as he saw her. However, when he saw his hands empty, a slight frown appeared on his face. He put his arms around her and said calmly:

– You are back.

– Mm…

Seeing that the helpers were not there, she hugged her waist and buried her head against his chest. She said coquettishly:NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

– I missed you so much today!

Sebastien raised an eyebrow. He felt like his heart had melted.

-Did you really miss me?

Roxane nodded.

– We spent all our time together during my vacation. I’m really not used to it now that I can’t see you as often…

If she went abroad, she wouldn’t be able to see him every day and she wouldn’t be able to hug him. She was hesitant about going abroad when she thought about it. Love was indeed a stumbling block on the path of his career.

Sebastien stroked her head with his big hand and said:

– I missed you too.

Then, he held her hand and led her upstairs, pretending to ask innocently:

-Was there a traffic jam on the way back? You came back so late. Are you hungry?

– There was no traffic jam, answered Roxane honestly,

– Before coming back, I went to the escape room. The boss helped me before, and I soiled his shirt. Therefore, I bought him a new one to compensate him.

Sebastian’s eyes flickered briefly as he asked in a low voice:

– The boss of the escape room? What happened?

She briefly recounted what happened a few days ago.

Sebastian’s expression was calm and no emotion could be seen on his face as he asked:

– So you and Jessica went shopping just to buy him a shirt?

Since she went to one of the Flores group’s shopping centers, someone had informed her upon her arrival. He had assumed she had gone there because of him.

– It’s not just to buy him a shirt. The main reason is to accompany Jessica, Roxane said as she entered the room. She set down her bag before casually tying her long hair into a bun and said,

– Oh okay. I want to ask for your help…

– What is this? Sebastian asked indifferently. His expression was also gloomy. Obviously he wasn’t in a good mood.

– I want to book Blue Temptations for a short time this Saturday. Can you speak to Quentin?

Sebastien looked down and asked:

– Jessica is considering confessing her feelings to Enzo?

Roxane gasped, looking at him with widened eyes. She asked, surprised,

– Mr. Seb, don’t tell me you know how to read minds?

Perhaps the surprised expression on Roxane’s face was too cute that the unhappiness and disappointment in Sebastian’s heart were quickly washed away. He pinched her cheek using moderate force as he said:

– I don’t have such an ability, but I do have common sense and a little ability to deduce things.

Roxane couldn’t tell if she was relieved or disappointed upon hearing this. She pouted her pink lips slightly before asking:

– So, are you going to help or not?

In fact, she could talk to Quentin about it. However, she thought it was rather inappropriate. It was better to let Sebastien speak.

– I can help you, but…

She stared at him, waiting for him to continue speaking. After a while, she asked:

-So how do you want to be compensated?

He smiled weakly.

– I remember that someone still owes me a dance…

She turned red with embarrassment as she stammered:

– I already learned it, but… are you sure you want to watch it now?

It was just a dance, after all, and she had her rules for finding an excuse. Therefore, she was not afraid even if he looked at her with burning eyes.

He seemed to have thought of something. He took a deep breath before giving up.

“So, I’ll let you continue to owe me for now…

Roxane’s eyes were as bright as the moon as she said:

– All right!

She would leave future problems for the future. Plus, she wasn’t afraid of the itching even though she already had lice.
