AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

The man sitting in the car had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. Although his facial features were cold, in Roxane’s eyes they were hot and burning.

– It’s not Diego, it’s not anyone else… It’s always been you!

She laughed while crying. She choked and said:

– The first man I fell in love with, the last man I truly loved, was you. It’s you who saved me… I’m only alive because of you.

Destiny was so wonderful. It always gave you a glimmer of hope when you were at your most hopeless and helpless. This faint light was enough to make people fly like moths to a flame.

To the hospital.

Roxane still showed no signs of waking up. The doctor had done several rounds of full body exams on her and showed that there was nothing wrong with her body. But no one could say why she still didn’t wake up.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

The glimmer of hope that Sebastien had just obtained faded again, and a trace of despair appeared in his eyes as dark as the abyss.

His slender fingers caressed his pale face as he whispered:

– For what ? Why do you refuse to wake up?

– Are you angry with me?

He held Roxane’s hand and pecked it on her lips. His hoarse voice was almost humble as he begged:

– Roxane, don’t be angry. I’ll let you go to Paris for as long as you want. I will be good and wait for your return.

-As long as you’re ready to wake up, I’ll let you go wherever you want to go, as long as you’re ready to wake up.

There was a knock on the door and Raoul pushed Christine inside.

Seeing that Roxane hadn’t woken up, her heart sank heavily and she felt bad.

“Big brother,” Christine shouted to him.

Sebastien remained silent for a moment. His Adam’s apple rolled as he held back his emotions. When he opened his eyes, his eyes were cold and he looked at her without wind or waves.

Christine licked her lips and replied hesitantly:

– I was also unconscious for a long time. I asked you how I woke up, but you didn’t tell me anything.

Sebastien seemed to have thought of something and his eyes blinked.

– I asked Patrice again yesterday. He couldn’t resist my questioning and told me that it was Roxane who had woken me up.

Christine took a chance and asked

-Big brother, do you know how she managed to wake me up? Maybe we can try his method!

Sebastien held Roxane’s hand tightly and said nothing, but there seemed to be a glimmer of hope in his dark eyes. He turned to look at the unconscious girl.

They had seen the tip of Roxane’s finger pierce Christine with a needle in the surveillance video. They couldn’t see clearly what she did after that because she covered him with her body…

Or maybe she didn’t do anything.

However, it was a bit awkward.

He knew better than anyone how poignant the pain of having your fingertips pierced was.

It was really difficult for him to do such a thing to Roxane!

Christine had only given him one idea. As for how Roxane had woken her up, she didn’t know. The rest depended on Sebastien’s choice.

Christine stayed in the room a little longer before Raoul sent her away.

Sebastien called Patrice.

– Do you still remember how Roxy woke Christine?

Patrice thought he was going to get revenge on him and immediately lowered his head and admitted his mistake.

– I’m sorry, President Flores. Miss Flores is the one who keeps harassing me and forcing me to tell you. I really have …

Before he could finish, Sebastian interrupted him.

– Do you think we can wake Roxane the same way?

Patrice was stunned.

“He’s not looking for me to settle scores!”

Patrice’s heart trembled when he met Sebastien’s hopeful eyes. He swallowed the uncertain words that were on the tip of his tongue.

He didn’t want to break his fantasy. What if he succeeded?

– I can try!

He replied cautiously,

– Even if she doesn’t wake up, her condition won’t be worse than now.

Sebastien may have made his decision a long time ago, but he just wanted someone to confirm his decision.

A man who was decisive in the business world had now become timid and timid.

– Go get a needle.

Sebastien’s thin lips parted slightly. After finishing speaking, he added:

– The finer the better.

The hospital syringe was too thick and he was afraid of hurting her.

Patrice was very efficient and brought back a set of acupuncture tools in no time.

The needles used for acupuncture were extremely fine and much better than those used for sewing clothes.

Sebastien chose the finest silver needle. After disinfecting it, he held Roxane’s hand. His dark eyes were filled with heartache.

– Roxane, bear with it… It won’t hurt very soon.

As soon as he finished speaking, he gritted his teeth and mercilessly inserted the silver needle into his middle finger. When he pulled it out, a drop of blood quickly appeared.

He looked at Roxane’s face. His eyes were full of hope, but they gradually darkened…

Could it be that this method is useless?

So how did she wake Christine?

He lowered his head and sucked his finger, sucking the blood from his fingertip. The fishy, sweet taste filled the empty space, mixed with a strong bitterness.

Patrice hesitated,

– Isn’t that deep enough? Why don’t you use another finger to stab deeper?

Sebastien’s eyes were filled with cruelty. He put aside the acupuncture tools and said in a cold voice:

– Disappears!

It’s useless!

None of this would wake Roxane!

Patrice was so frightened that he took two steps back. He didn’t even dare to breathe or say another word.

Sebastien leaned over and hugged Roxane. He turned his head to kiss her forehead and apologized guiltily:

– I’m sorry. I hurt you… It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have listened to their bad idea. I’m sorry…

I didn’t protect you well, it’s all my fault!

Patrice crouched on the ground and picked up the silver needles that had fallen on the ground so as not to hurt anyone. When he got up and wanted to go out, he accidentally saw Roxane on the bed. His eyes widened and he began to stutter…

– Presi, presi, President Flores…

Sebastien hugged Roxane. He felt like his heart was being cut by a knife. He didn’t want to say a word at all. He growled coldly, – Disappear.

Patrice pointed at Roxane with agitation,

– President Flores, Roxane is awake… Woman… she is awake!!

Sebastien’s body obviously stiffened. For a moment, he hugged Roxane without any reaction, suspecting that he had heard wrong.

What was Patrice doing?

Oh… is she awake?

Roxane slowly opened her eyes and felt something heavy pressing on her body. His fingers were in terrible pain. His voice was hoarse and weak with every word.

– My hand hurts …

Sebastien finally raised his head and met her dazed eyes. His eyes suddenly turned red and misty…

– Roxane is awake… She’s finally awake… he said.

Her voice was choked with emotion, and she couldn’t control her emotions. Tears fell down her face and slowly slid down her cheeks, as if she were crying…

-You’re finally awake.

Sebastien hugged her again, so tightly that there was no gap.
