AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Roxane didn’t think there was anything wrong with the question and answered honestly:

– I take the bus to the nearest metro station.

– There are a few cars in the garage.

He talked about his cars so casually that it seemed like he was talking about toys that could just be played with.

Roxane looked at him in surprise before saying, slightly embarrassed,

– Thanks for the offer, but I can’t drive.

In fact, even though she knew how to drive, she didn’t think she would use her car. Since she was young, her grandmother had taught her to be independent and not to take advantage of others.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Sebastien was silent for a moment before saying:

– Get in the car.

It was good that he hadn’t known before, but now that he did, how could he let her walk so far to the bus stop? If Enzo found out, he would never see the end of this story.

-Oh?

Roxane was slightly surprised. She quickly replied:

– No need. It’s quite convenient for me to take the bus…

Before she could finish her words, he had already gotten into the car.

With that, Roxane’s voice died away. She looked at the driver waiting for her and felt embarrassed for wasting their time. Therefore, she quickly got into the car.

When they were in the car, Sebastien was completely focused on reading his iPad. He remained silent the whole way and didn’t even look at Roxane.

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the entrance of M University.

Roxane thanked Sebastien and was about to get out of the car when he asked:

– What time does your class end?

She didn’t think too much and replied:

– 4 o’clock in the afternoon.

Sebastian only nodded slightly.

– Mm.

She looked at him in confusion before getting out of the car. Then, before closing the door, she leaned over and said:

– Goodbye, Mr. Flores.

Sebastian lowered his head and looked at the iPad. He didn’t react, as if he hadn’t heard her.

Roxane didn’t take it to heart. She wasn’t disappointed and didn’t find him arrogant or rude. After all, he was a big shot. It was no surprise that he didn’t want to interact much with a student like her.

…

The sun wasn’t too bright at 4 p. m.

The students got excited as soon as the bell rang.

The teacher did not hold the student back and the class ended on time.

Roxane’s painting wasn’t finished, so she sat alone in the classroom to finish it after everyone had left. When she was finished, she packed her bag leisurely and walked slowly out of the classroom.

When she reached the doors, her phone suddenly rang. It was a message from Jessica asking if her class was over. She was in a milk tea shop and invited her to eat hotpot for dinner.

Jessica may have felt bad for what happened last night, she was very nice today.

Roxane responded with an “Ok” before picking up her pace.

– Roxane.

A familiar voice sounded nearby at this time.

She turned around and saw Diego getting out of a white Mercedes-Benz and walking towards her.

He was dressed casually today. He was wearing a white polo shirt and gray pants. With the sun illuminating the exquisite features of his face, it attracted the attention of many people.

Diego pursed his lips before asking kindly, as if nothing had happened:

-Did you stay in the classroom to paint again?

Roxane replied:

– Yes.

Then, without waiting for Diego to speak, she asked:

– What is happening?

Diego was slightly surprised by Roxane’s cold welcome. Finally, he asked with a smile:

– Are you really angry?

Then, he raised his hand, intending to caress the top of her head.

However, before her hand could make contact, she took a half step back and avoided his hand.

Diego’s expression stiffened and his hand froze in the air.
