AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Roxane and Sebastien exchanged a look. Then, without any hesitation, both of them said:

– We will sign it.

Enzo frowned. He meant he could raise Mathis. He didn’t want Roxane to bear the responsibility of raising a child who wasn’t hers even if she didn’t yet have a child of her own. However, before he could protest, a cold voice rang out from the entrance.

– I object to that.

Fernand came in and sat down without being invited. He was dressed in a black suit and wore a pair of glasses on his handsome face. His gaze was dark at this moment.

The lawyer was very professional and said:

– This is my client’s last wish. Here is the document she signed.

Fernand didn’t even glance at the document the lawyer showed him. Instead, he looked at Mathis and said calmly:

– Mathis is my son. I should raise him. :

Sebastien did not speak.

However, Roxane said:

– But Sister Deborah entrusted it to me. She doesn’t want you to raise Mumu!

In the past, she thought Fernand was a gentle person when she saw his photos and heard Deborah’s words. However, now she knew that he was not what he seemed.

Fernand smiled slightly and said:

– Sister-in-law, she was sick and not of sound mind; his judgment was not the best in this state.

Hearing this, Enzo sneered coldly and said:

– It’s really the first time I’ve seen such a shameless person! Turn black into white and call a deer a horse.

Fernand only glanced at Enzo before ignoring him. Then, he said to Sebastien:

– I just got home. Don’t tell me you’re going to fight me for custody of my son.

Fernand placed strong emphasis on the words “my son”.

Roxane turned to look at Sebastien with eyes full of expectations. She said :

– Seb, don’t give him custody of Mumu!

“How else can we live up to Sister Deborah’s expectations?”

Sebastien held Roxane’s hand and held her hand to reassure her before saying lightly:

– It’s been a long time since anything big happened in M City.

Hearing this, Enzo let out a whistle and looked at Fernand gleefully.

A skinny camel was even bigger than a horse. Although the Lambert family is in decline, they are not helpless. If it were anyone else, they might not have been able to compete with the Lambert family. However, Sebastien was currently on top. It was unclear who would win if a fight broke out.

Fernand’s expression froze briefly. He lowered his eyes to hide the darkness in them before saying:

– Sebastien, I know you helped her a lot, but ultimately, she was my wife.

It was an oath of sovereignty. Whether it was the living Deborah or the dead Deborah, they both belonged to Fernand. Not to mention, they also had a child together.

Sebastien leaned back. He asked casually:

-Are the Lambert family affairs not enough for you?

Although Fernand now controlled the Lambert family, many people viewed his position with covetousness. If he fought for custody at that time, he was just asking for trouble.

He took a deep breath. He didn’t expect his good friend to become so difficult to deal with. His fingers gently stroked the Buddhist beads on her wrist before calmly asking:

-What should I do to get you to give me custody of Mathis?Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Roxane was about to speak when Sebastien shook her hand. Then he said:

– Deborah gave us custody of Mathis. We will accept it, but we will also respect Mathis’ wish.

In other words, Sebastien would only give up custody of Mathis if Mathis wanted him to.

Roxane and Enzo looked at Sebastien with a hint of surprise.

Fernand’s expression froze for a moment. When he reacted, he stood up and buttoned his suit jacket before saying with a slight smile:

– All right. I promise I will have him come home with me willingly.

After finishing speaking, Fernand turned and left.

Enzo spat,

– Beast!

Roxane turned to look at Sebastien and asked in confusion:

– Seb, why did you say that? You don’t want Mumu?

– Deborah had a deep prejudice against Fernand. From her point of view, there’s nothing wrong with her giving us custody of Mathis. However, Fernand is still his father no matter what.

Compared to the godparents, Fernand was Mathis’ blood relative.

– But… Will he treat Mumu well? She asked worriedly.

From the start, Fernand only used Deborah as a chess piece. He didn’t care about her at all, so would he care about Mathis?

Deborah had given all her love to Fernand, but in return, she ended up like this. Just thinking about it made Roxane feel like it wasn’t worth it.

Sebastien did not directly answer Roxane’s question. Instead, he said ambiguously:

– Sometimes, those who lack love yearn even more for love…

The atmosphere was heavy, and the trio no longer spoke.

None of them noticed a small figure huddled near the tracks on the second floor.
