AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Sebastien acted as if he hadn’t heard Roxane and continued to take his time. After he finished, he covered the wound with a large bandage.

It was a little itchy, so she instinctively reached out. However, before she could touch the bandage, Sebastian grabbed her wrist and said in a low voice:

– Do not touch it.

– Oh.

Roxane dropped her hand, looking embarrassed.

Enzo approached at this moment and pushed Sebastien aside. Then he said:

– What are you doing ? You don’t have a phobia of women? You feel uncomfortable and nauseous every time you touch a woman. Why do you keep touching my sister?

Roxane’s clear eyes shone with surprise as she looked at Sebastien in a daze.

– He has a phobia of women? When we first met, he reached out to help me when I was about to fall.

Enzo looked at Sebastien and asked suspiciously:

-Have you been pretending all this time?

Sebastian wasn’t upset about being exposed. He only said indifferently:

– I told the driver to send him to his university.

In other words, he felt responsible for her injury, so it was normal for him to take care of her.

Enzo scoffed, not buying the excuse. Then he lowered his head and said to Roxane:

– Come home with me.

She immediately shook her head.

-Mom and Dad will be worried if I come home. I will come in a few days.

She had been raised in the countryside by her grandmother, and after her return, her parents always treated her with politeness and caution. Her mother often looked at her with guilt in her eyes. It made her uncomfortable. She had been very happy living at Moon Pavilion and didn’t want to go back. If his parents saw his injury, they would feel more guilty and more distressed.

“So if you don’t come home, they won’t be worried?”

Enzo retorted, pinching her cheek.

– Do you know that mom talks about you all the time?

Although he didn’t use much force at all, the movement pulled on Roxane’s wound, making her wince.

-Brother, it hurts.

Enzo let go immediately. Then he said:

-Listen to me, go home. You’ve only been gone a few days, but you’ve already injured your forehead. If you stay outside a few more days, you will die.

– Brother …Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

She held her brother’s arm and acted gently.

– No. This won’t work today. Come home with me, Enzo said determinedly.

Roxane remained silent. Her lips were pursed slightly and an aggrieved expression could be seen on her small, round face as she looked at Enzo with her bright eyes.

He sighed helplessly. Finally he gave in and said:

– Alright Alright. But you must visit us once you feel better.

She smiled immediately and said kindly:

– Thank you brother.

Enzo sighed theatrically before saying:

– What is the point of a “thank you”? My pocket is so empty that you can hear the north and autumn wind blowing.

Roxane seemed to have expected it. She took out her phone and immediately transferred 10, 000 to him.

– It’s done.

Enzo smiles happily as he receives “love” from his sister. Then he said:

– Be good. Don’t forget to get plenty of rest. Do not return to class until your injury is better. I will personally send you to school every day.

Roxane nodded obediently.

Sebastien looked at Enzo with undisguised contempt as he shamelessly asked his sister for money.

When he turned around, he looked at Sebastian meaningfully.

Following this, Sebastien told Roxane to wait before leaving the room with Enzo.

The duo stood in front of a window in the hallway. Rays of sunlight streamed through and illuminated their bodies with golden light.

Sebastien said:

– I knew from before that you are shameless, but I didn’t know it was until this point.

– You even extorted money from your sister…

Enzo rolled his eyes.

– What do you know? We are brother and sister.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a box of cigarettes. Then he suddenly remembered that he was in the hospital where smoking was prohibited. He sighed before leaning against the wall. He licked his dry lips before bluntly saying

– Old Flores, although you helped my sister with the marriage, that’s another matter. I don’t want her involved in your Flores family’s affairs. If she gets affected again, don’t blame me for not being polite to you.
