AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Fernand got up, took his coat and put it on. He straightened his sleeves and said:

– The girls’ friendship is very wonderful. Sometimes it is as strong as gold, sometimes it is as fragile as paper and can be destroyed by a drop of water. She’s your sister’s best friend. You destroyed their confidence in front of everyone. You not only hurt Jessica, but also your sister and this friendship.

After saying what he had to say, he left.

Quentin was deep in thought;

– What he said seems to make sense.

Enzo looked a little annoyed.

“Fuck off,” he said and got up to leave.

Quentin finally reacts.

– Whore ! You ruined my plan again, Enzo, you stupid caterpillar!

…

When Roxane chased after her, Jessica had already left. She searched the streets for a long time, but could not find her.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

His phone was still off.

– Jessy drank so much wine, will she recover?

Sebastien looked at her without saying anything.

Roxane felt something.

-What’s wrong, Seb?

– She lied to you, aren’t you angry?

– I’m mad.

She dialed Jessica’s number again.

– But that has nothing to do with the fact that I’m worried about her!

Sebastian’s cold features were filled with confusion.

Roxane took a deep breath and left the phone. She looked at the empty street and said angrily:

– She lied to me, but I’ve known her for so many years and she’s never done anything to hurt me! I can feel if she treats me like a good friend or not.

– Besides, it was her cousin who hurt me, not her! At first she misunderstood me because she was lied to, but when she got to know me she changed her mind about me. This also shows that she is different from her cousin!

In the past, she might have suspected Jessy of having ulterior motives and resented him for lying to her, but today, she no longer thinks of Elle that way.

Sebastien reached out his hand and touched his cheek;

-You always seem to think from other people’s points of view.

Roxane held out her hand.

– Now is not the time to talk about it. Let’s meet Jessy first. I’m afraid something will happen to him!

Even if he was angry, he had to wait to find the person.

– This area is Quentin’s territory, no one would dare do anything to him. I’ll ask the bodyguards to look for her, let’s go back.

– But…

Roxane was still worried, but Sebastien interrupted her before she could finish.

– Be good and wait for news at home. I’ll have Logan look for her.

When she met his gaze, she could only swallow the words she was about to say.

***

Jessica didn’t leave immediately after leaving the bar. Instead, she turned around and walked towards an alley next to the bar. She threw up.

She reached into his guts and almost vomited out his internal organs.

The phone was off the first time it rang. Finally, she couldn’t vomit anymore and squatted on the ground. Her tears couldn’t stop falling and she cried so hard she couldn’t speak.

She only felt like a knife was moving in her body, her liver and intestines were being cut, and blood was flowing out.

Her head was also very dizzy, and the scene in front of her seemed to be constantly shaking and spinning. She felt like she was almost unable to breathe. She held her heart, choked in pain several times, and her whole body fell sideways.

The dark, cold air of the long, dark alley was shrouded in an uncomfortable smell. The slender figure of a man walked in and squatted down beside Jessica. He lowered his head and looked at her face which was paler than the moonlight. He remained silent for a long time.

Finally, he reached out and lifted her off the dirty ground. He pulled out of the driveway and stood in the light.

Logan saw him and the person in his arms. He was stunned.

– Mr. Alvarez, Madam asked me to find Miss Ramos and send her back to the hotel.

– mm, replied Enzo with a faint “mm”. He had no intention of handing the person over to him.

– Go back and tell her she was sent back to the hotel.

After saying this, he walked towards the car on the side of the road.

Logan stood still, as if digesting what he had said.

Enzo stuffed Jessica into the car, turned around and glanced at her, then said:

– Don’t talk about me to anyone.

– Yes, Mr. Alvarez.

Logan understood.

Enzo didn’t know which hotel she was staying at, but luckily Jessica had the hotel room card in her bag, so the rest was easy.

The star hotels in the city of M belonged either to the Flores company or to Quentin’s family. He could find Jessica’s room number just by giving her name.

Enzo put the unconscious Jessica on the bed and turned to leave, but his wrist seemed to be caught by something.

He turned around and saw Jessica’s pale face. She looked like a ghost and was still mumbling in her sleep.

-I’m sorry, I’m sorry…

Tears slowly fell from the corners of his eyes.

Enzo withdrew his hand and opened his thin lips.

-If you knew this would happen, you wouldn’t have done it!

He leaned down and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his fingertips.

Jessica cried like a pear blossom bathed in rain and mumbled another name.

“Ethan…”

Enzo’s fingers froze and his heartless lips curled into a sneer. He got up, slammed the door and left.
