AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

After they both had breakfast, Sebastian took out his gym bag.

Roxane accompanied him to the door and said:

– Have fun !

The smile on his face was warmer than the winter sun.

For some reason, Roxane felt very happy to be home alone and couldn’t wait for him to leave. After hesitating for a moment, he got in the car and left.

She watched the car drive away. When the car was finally out of sight, she excitedly ran over and asked the butler:Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

-Where are the things? Where are things?

The decorations she had purchased online had been received by the butler. He had kept them so that Sebastien would not discover them.

– They are in the storage room. I’m going to get them now.

Roxane nodded before tying her hair into a pretty bun. After that, she went to the kitchen to check the ingredients needed for tonight’s feast. She made sure no ingredients were missing.

Once the decorations were out, she asked the helpers to start decorating.

The words “Happy Birthday” were taped to the dining room wall.

The usually white tablecloth on the dining table was replaced with a more sophisticated tablecloth with gold trim. Candles and vases of blooming champagne roses decorated the table.

She even placed two plant pots on the sides of the stairs.

She was very happy watching everything gradually take shape.

Suddenly the doorbell rings.

Roxane and the butler’s expressions changed immediately, wondering if Sebastien had returned early. If this were the case, their efforts would be in vain.

If Sebastian came back now, they wouldn’t have time to hide all the decorations that had been put up.

Roxane and the butler walked nervously towards the entrance.

After looking at the small screen next to the door, she sighed in relief when she saw Nadia waving at the camera. Then she said:

– Open the door. It’s my friend.

The butler also breathed a sigh of relief before hurriedly opening the door.

Nadia wore a long black knitted dress and a camel-colored coat and carried two bags with her. Her hair was half tied up, revealing her exquisite facial features. Her makeup was very light and she looked soft and pure. She said :

– Good morning. I am here to help you.

Roxane invited Nadia and said:

– I was scared to death earlier. I thought Seb had come back early.

– I was also afraid of being discovered, so I didn’t dare come early, said Nadia, handing one of the bags to Roxane,

– I didn’t know what to give the birthday boy. Finally, I decided to gift a set of skincare products to the birthday boy’s wife.

Compared to giving Sebastien a birthday present, it was better to give Roxane a present. This way, it would make Sebastian happier.

Roxane felt a little embarrassed.

– How can this be? I asked for your help, and you still brought me a gift.

“Well, I can’t come empty-handed. No need to stand at the ceremony. I think fruit baskets are too cliche, so I got you this instead.

Roxane accepted the gift and asked the help to take it upstairs before asking:

– Would you like me to show you around?

The decorations were almost finished, and it was still early. They had plenty of time to drink and chat.

– Of course.

After showing Nadia the decorations, Roxane showed her the studio, the garden and the backyard. As it was too cold outside, they did not stay outside for long. In the end, they sat on the second floor balcony, drinking juice and talking.

Nadia said with envy:

-No wonder everyone said that Moon Pavilion should be a tourist attraction in M City. The view here is too good.

The Moon Pavilion occupied 12 hectares of land. Sebastien had hired the best design, architecture and landscaping companies. It was estimated that he spent around 200 million to build his private sanctuary and park.

Once, someone used a drone to film the scenery of the Moon Pavilion. When netizens saw it, they were both stunned and envious. There were even people who accused Sebastien of being too extravagant. Some were even unreasonable, calling him out for not opening Moon Pavilion Park to the public.

– I like this place too, said Roxane. She wandered around the pavilion from time to time, but until now, she hadn’t finished wandering around the corners of the moon pavilion.

The two young women continued to chat until the butler came to call them for lunch.

After lunch, Roxane went to the kitchen and started preparing for the evening’s birthday feast. Meanwhile, Nadia helped adjust the decorations.

The golden light from outside shone through the window, giving warmth to the beautiful house.
