AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Sebastien’s hand which was unbuttoning his shirt stopped for a moment. The collar of his shirt was unbuttoned, revealing his neck, Adam’s apple, and collarbones. When his eyes swept over Roxane, there was a wave of warmth hidden in them. After a while he said:

– Although gossip will affect the company’s stock price, everything will be fine in a few days. You don’t have to worry about it.

– But… But they say that you are in an inappropriate relationship with a minor…

She went out. In his opinion, Sebastien was a very good person, but Internet users, who knew nothing, slandered him and called him a pervert. They even wanted to denounce him and denounce the Flores group for tax evasion even if that was not the case.

Sebastien said in a low voice:

– No matter what these people said…

Roxane thought about it for a moment before finally deciding to give voice to the idea that had been on her mind all night.

-Why don’t I help you clarify the question? I can show my ID card to prove that I am an adult.

-They won’t believe you anyway.

She lowered her head. Guilt and regret threatened to overwhelm her in this moment. She didn’t like causing problems for others, let alone Sebastian.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Sebastien looked at Roxane depressed. After a few seconds of silence, he said slowly:

-Actually, this matter is very easy to solve. As long as…

He stopped talking.

Roxane immediately raised her head and looked at him with bright eyes, asking enthusiastically:

– As long as?

As long as she could help him, she was willing to do anything.

Sebastien looked at her hesitantly before finally shaking his head and said:

– Forget that. It’s nothing.

Roxane stepped forward and asked with a stubborn expression on her face:

– What is this ? Tell me. How can I help?

Sebastien looked down and licked his lips before saying:

-As long as we register our marriage and let the legal department show our marriage certificate, everything will be fine.

Hearing this, Roxane said without hesitation:

– Okay, let’s do this!

She had assumed it would be something difficult. However, the solution turned out to be as simple as registering their marriage.

Sebastien was surprised when she accepted without hesitation. He looked at her silently while swallowing.

A smile finally appeared on Roxane’s face as she said:

– It’s a good idea. Let’s just do this.

When Sebastian came to his senses, he asked in an incredibly soft voice

– Are you ready to register our marriage?

Roxane immediately nodded.

– Of course. I’m ready as long as I can help you.

Sebastian looked away from her innocent eyes. For a moment, he didn’t know whether to feel happy or worried.

Roxane said:

– I will go home tomorrow to get my family record book.

Sebastien took a deep breath to calm himself before saying in a low voice

– I only came back to take a shower. I have to go abroad for a very important collaboration. I’ll probably be gone for a week or so.

-Oh?

She seemed discouraged immediately, becoming worried again.

-So what are we going to do about this problem?

Internet gossip was, in fact, not a very big problem. However, this could still affect the company’s stock price.

After a moment, Sebastien asked: – Do you have your passport with you?

Roxane nodded. She had planned to go to Japan to attend an art exhibition before, but in the end, due to some problems, she was unable to go.

– Give me your passport and your identity card before you prepare your clothes.

– Eh?

She looked at him in confusion.

– Come with me on my business trip. It’s the same if we register our marriage abroad, said Sebastien.

-And the visa?

– Leave him to me. You don’t have to worry about it, Sebastian said in a low, hoarse voice.

His voice seemed to hold magic as it calmed her and eased her worries.

…

Two hours later.

Roxane boarded a private plane with Sebastien.

Besides Patrice, there were a few people in suits who were probably Sebastien’s employees.

After she accepted a glass of juice from the flight attendant, she looked at Sebastien who was discussing some issues with his employees before curiously asking:

– May I ask where we are going?
