AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Roxane put down her phone and was about to take a shower. When she turned around, she saw Sebastien leaning against the door.

His posture was languorous and his expression was relaxed. A half smile could be seen on his face as he stared at her with a burning gaze.

-…

“He didn’t hear those indescribable words, did he?”

Sebastien said lazily:

– Thank you, Madam, for your trust and support.

Roxane’s mind went blank as her cheeks turned red. She stammered:

– Why do you always listen to my conversations?

She still remembered the time when she had just moved to Moon Pavilion.

Sebastien approached. His gaze was tender and affectionate as he looked at her and said innocently:

– Mrs. Flores, please be reasonable. You didn’t close the door. Plus, it’s also my room. How can you accuse me of eavesdropping?C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Roxane lowered her head and covered her face.

-Why do I always find myself in such embarrassing situations?

Sebastian couldn’t hide the smile on his face as he pulled her into his embrace. He kissed her on the forehead and said in a low, hoarse voice:

– Isn’t it because Madame Flores is a pervert?

– No!

She said in a small voice:

– I’m not a pervert. We are just discussing the difference between local men and foreign men!

The smile on Sebastian’s face grew. He lowered his head to kiss her lips after saying:

– There is no need to discuss. It’s best to just put it into action. With this you can check the truth!

Roxane had a stomach full of retorts, but she didn’t have the chance to express them.

Sebastian carried her into the bathroom and helped her check the truth.

The weather in M City was getting colder and colder day by day.

Outside the window, snowflakes floated in the air.

Recently, the butler had sent Mathis back to kindergarten. Roxane was worried that he would be bored at home, so they thought it would be better to let him return to preschool.

When she came downstairs, she saw that Sebastien and Mathis were already seated at the dining table. One was drinking coffee and reading the newspaper while the other was slowly drinking milk. It was a pretty harmonious scene.

When Mathis saw Roxane, he shouted in a clear voice:

– Hello, godmother.

Sebastien immediately raised his head.

– Good morning.

– Hello, Mr. Seb. Hello, Mumu, said Roxane, walking towards the dining table with light steps.

– Godmother, you are too partial. I greeted you first, Mathis complained, feeling jealous. After spending time with his godmother, he had fallen in love with his cute godmother. Sebastian’s position in her heart was at stake now.

Roxane jokingly said:

– He is old. We must respect our elders.

“Oh,” Mathis said and nodded obediently.

Sebastien raised an eyebrow and asked:

– I am old?

With Mathis present, Roxane said without fear:

“Well, you are indeed much older than me.

Sebastien scoffed before saying:

– Hey! I’ll remember it.

The assistant served breakfast and the trio ate.

After breakfast, Sebastian didn’t even speak to him before leaving for the company.

Roxane didn’t have class in the morning so she sent Mathis to kindergarten. She was afraid he would be cold so she wrapped him in a blue scarf.

Sebastian wasn’t there, so Mathis boldly said:

– Godmother, godfather has such a bad temper. When I grow up, you should divorce me. I am going to marry you ! I promise to treat you well!

He courageously tried to poach Roxane now that Sebastien was not there.

She was amused by these words. She said :

– When you grow up, I will be an old woman. Do you still want to marry me?

Mathis said seriously:

– Yes ! Godmother, you are very young and very beautiful. All my classmates thought you were my sister!

– How eloquent, declared Roxane, pinching Mathis’ cheeks,

– Don’t think that you don’t have to go to kindergarten just because you said that. Get in the car.

Mathis’s attempt to curry favor failed, so he could only climb into the back seat of the car dejectedly.

The kindergarten that Deborah enrolled Mathis in was just a regular kindergarten. It was quite far from the Moon Pavilion, and the journey took almost an hour.

When they arrived, Roxane carried Mathis out of the car. She could only wear it briefly because the addition of the heavy winter clothes weighed her down. She was holding his hand and was about to walk towards the entrance of the kindergarten when she saw a man dressed in a long white coat. He was tall, elegant and eye-catching.

Upon seeing the man, Mathis instinctively hid behind Roxane, seeking a sense of security.

Roxane wrapped her arm around Mathis’ shoulders to reassure him. Then she looked at Fernand and asked:

– What are you doing here ?

– It’s going to snow in two days. I bought a child’s duvet for his kindergarten nap.

He handed the bag in his hand to Roxane.

She didn’t take it.

– Everything is planned at the nursery school.

Fernand glanced at the shabby entrance to the kindergarten behind him before saying:

– Even if he’s not by my side, I don’t want him to suffer.

According to him, Mathis could have attended a prestigious kindergarten and received the best treatment.

Roxane remained silent for a moment before taking the bag.

Fernand lifted the glasses to his face before placing his hands on his back. He looked at Mathis and said:

– Dad will be a little busy for a few days. I will visit you at your godfather’s house in a few days.

Mathis hid behind Roxane and did not respond.

Fernand didn’t care. He straightened his back and nodded to Roxane before heading towards the Cayenne which was parked on the side of the road.

Roxane looked at Fernand’s back and thought he was a person with a split personality. One moment he was cold and heartless, but another moment he was gentle and refined.

Mathis tugged on Roxane’s sleeve at this point.

She looked down and met Mathis’ curious gaze.

– Godmother, is this really my father?

She didn’t hide anything from him. She nodded and squatted down, saying:

– Mumu, he’s your biological father. However, if you really don’t want to live with him, that’s okay. You can stay with your godfather and godmother.

Mathis looked down and didn’t speak.

Roxane didn’t know how to comfort him. In the end, she only patted his head and said:

– Let’s go. Otherwise, you will be late.
