AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

-I’m fine with anything, she raised her head and said obediently.

-You slept too long. The doctor said you should eat liquid foods first to get used to it. The butler will take care of the kitchen to prepare delicious meals for you in two days.

“Okay,” she said.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

When they fell asleep, the butler had already brought dinner. Sebastian got up and went to the kitchen to get ready.

Roxane also sat down and put herself and her pillow away. When she saw the amulet under her pillow, she asked curiously:

-Is this the blessing you asked for me?

Sebastien was slightly stunned. After a while, he realized that it was Jonas who had drunk him. His lips moved slightly, and he was about to say no…

“Thank you,” she said.

She smiled brightly and carefully put the amulet away.

– Grandma already asked for it, but she lost it. Great, I have a new amulet now.

Sebastien swallowed the words he was about to say.

Forget it, it’s just a blessing of peace.

If it could truly protect her, so be it.

After dinner, he packed his things and saw Roxane sitting up to get out of bed when he came out.

– Do you want to go for a walk?

She nodded.

– I feel like I’ve been lying down for a long time. I have no strength at all.

Sebastien stepped forward to support her. She had been lying for too long and her body was weak. There wasn’t much strength in his legs. If he hadn’t supported her, she probably should have prayed for the new year.

Sebastien slowly helped her sit on the sofa. She walked slowly in only ten steps, like a little doll who has just learned to walk.

This thought came to his mind, and his thin lips couldn’t help but curl up.

Roxane sat up and looked up to see the curve of his lips. She pouted.

– Are you kidding me.

– No, I didn’t do it,

He crouched down and looked at her. His fingers gently swept her long hair behind her ears.

“I was just thinking about how you learned to walk when you were little. You must have been very cute.

Too bad they didn’t know each other at the time.

He regretted not having met her sooner, and those words had rolled through his heart countless times.

Roxane smiled.

– I’ve always been cute!

– Yes.

He nodded without the slightest hesitation.

Roxane glanced at the dark twilight outside the window and said with a nostalgic expression:

– I really want to go out for a walk.

– You are very weak at the moment, you cannot walk that long.

Sebastian’s beautiful big eyes were filled with disappointment as soon as he said that.

“But I can borrow a wheelchair to push you down,” he added after a pause.

In the next second, his black and white deer eyes lit up again.

……

The sun fell in the west and the tired birds returned to the forest. The evening wind of the summer night was cool.

Roxane sat in a wheelchair while Sebastien pushed her down the stairs. They walked aimlessly along the hospital road.

There were not many patients in private hospitals. Only two or three of them were walking in their hospital gowns.

Roxane asked

– How is Christine? I just woke up and forgot to ask him.

– She’s fine, thank you for saving her.

Sebastien looked down at her little head, his eyes soft.

– It’s good that she’s doing well,

Roxane breathed a sigh of relief. Then she hesitated.

– So… How is Jonas?

Sebastian’s eyes narrowed silently and he pursed his thin lips without saying a word.

Roxane waited a long time but did not hear him speak. She turned to look at him and saw his piercing eyes filled with coldness in the dim light.

– Mylene is Mylene, and he is him. If he hadn’t arrived in time to save me, I might really be dead by now.

Jonas had helped her time and time again and even saved her life. She couldn’t pretend to be indifferent.

Furthermore, Mylene’s sins should not be borne by Jonas.

She didn’t understand Jonas’ thoughts, but Sebastian did, and because he did, he couldn’t help but reject him.

– He is fine,

The three simple words were already his bottom line.

Roxane pursed her lips and smiled.

– It’s good. Otherwise, I will owe him so much that I won’t know how to repay him.

Sebastien brought Roxane into the hospital lounge and sat down on a bench to rest for a moment.

Roxane was also carried from the wheelchair to the bench, and the two sat side by side.

The sky was completely black and the moon was slowly rising. The lights of the tall buildings in the distance were dim, reflecting the Milky Way in the sky.

Roxane tilted her head and leaned on Sebastien’s shoulder. Her voice was more energetic than when she had just woken up.

– Sebastien, I really don’t want to go to Paris anymore. This place is too far from you.

She couldn’t bear to leave him behind again.

Sebastian raised his hand and patted him on the head.

– What about your dream?

– I can also make my dream come true in M City.

Roxane replied:

– I will work harder and realize my dream alongside you.

Sebastien pinched her earlobe with his fingers and said in a low, hoarse voice:

– But I’m afraid you’ll regret it.

She sat up and turned her head to meet his loving eyes.

– My little treasure, only 22 years old. She still has a long life ahead of her. I shouldn’t be so selfish. I have already seen the world but I confined her to my side and let her miss so much.

Roxane’s heart felt as if it had been pinched. It was sour and numb for a while.

– But what will you do if I leave?
