AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Chapter 4 14: Let’s argue!



At that moment, Sebastien had so many regrets that his intestines turned green. He had buried himself in the pit he had dug in the afternoon!

He stood up helplessly and walked to the library to look for a book.

Lorraine looked at his back and shouted:

– I don’t want to listen to your knowledge of aviation. Find me a book of fairy tales!

Sebastien turned around and looked at her.

– Do you think I would watch Snow White, Sleeping Beauty or Cinderella?

– I don’t care, I don’t care…

Lorraine turned her head and covered her ears,

– I won’t listen, I won’t listen, Sebastien will sing.

Sebastien was speechless.

In the end, he chose a collection of essays.

He didn’t know how to tell a story, so he just followed the script. However, his voice was pleasant to the ear, so he could hypnotize people even if he had no feelings.

Not only did Lorraine start to yawn after five minutes, but even Roxane, who was sitting at the desk, felt sleepy.

However, she did not dare to sleep. She was afraid of not being able to see what Seb looked like when he was young. She was even more afraid of really dying in her sleep and not knowing anything.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

She pinched her thigh, but she felt nothing. She was really dreaming.

She couldn’t resist Sebastian’s pleasant voice and fell asleep on the desk.

In her dazed sleep, she suddenly heard a noise coming from downstairs.

She suddenly opened her eyes and Lorraine was also startled awake.

She sat up on the bed, her clear eyes showing no signs of sleepiness.

-Are Mom and Dad back?

Sebastian selected the collection of essays and nodded.

– Are they still arguing Lorraine asked.

Sebastian responded with a “hmm” as usual and turned to look at her.

– Go back to your room quickly. Don’t make me scold you.

Lorraine sat there without moving.

Sebastien frowned and looked at her.

-Lorraine.

– Do you think they’re going to divorce?

She raised her head to look at him.

– The parents of my classmate who learned ballet with me were like that. At first they argued for a few days, then they argued every day, then they divorced.

Sebastien was silent. How could he understand adult affairs?

Lorraine pursed her lips.

– I don’t want them to argue, and I don’t want them to divorce.

– We cannot interfere in His Excellency’s affairs.

Sebastian looked down and said in a weak voice.

Lorraine thought for a moment, and a hint of cunning flickered in her eyes.

– I have a way!

– What?

– Let’s argue!

Lorraine looked at him with sparkling eyes.

-As long as we fight, their attention will be on us, and they will not fight.

Sebastien didn’t quite believe his bad idea.

-They won’t believe it. Besides, I don’t argue.

He had only fought with others.

Lorraine lifted her blanket and walked to the library, picking up a black model airplane.

Sebastian’s expression changed instantly.

– Lorraine, I saved a month’s pocket money to buy this. Put it down…

She smiled at him and let go.

The black plane fell to the ground with a “bang”, and the wing broke.

Roxane seemed to hear something shocking.

Oh, that was the sound of Sebastian’s heart breaking!

– Ah… Mom, help…

she shouted.

Lorraine pretended to be scared and ran downstairs.

The quarrel between Mylene and Alessio was interrupted by Lorraine’s cry for help.

Lorraine ran from upstairs and rushed to Mylene to hug her.

– Mother, save me! Sebastien is going to hit me!

– How many times have I told you that a girl should behave like a girl? look what you look like. Mylene had just had an argument with Alessio and the two didn’t look very good. However, they showed a meaningful smile to their daughter.

– Mother …

Lorraine pulled on her skirt and acted coquettishly.

Sebastian came down with the broken model, his expression very ugly as he looked coldly at Lorraine.

Mylene raised her head and looked at her son. She said in a reproachful tone:

– It’s so late at night. What are you doing instead of sleeping?

Sebastien raised the model in his hand.

– She broke my model.

“I didn’t do it on purpose,” Lorraine retorted.

– You don’t need to be so fierce!

Just when he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Mylene.

– Okay, it’s just a model. Is it necessary to make a fuss with your sister? It was so dangerous for her to run down the stairs!

Sebastian looked into her unhappy eyes and swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. He removed his hand that was holding the model in disappointment.

– How many times have I told you? you are older than Lorraine. You’re the older brother, so you have to give in to him!

Mylene continued to scold him.

– And how old are you? why do you still play with models? The final exam is approaching. If you can’t get first place in the whole class, you can explain it to grandpa yourself. Don’t say I didn’t check you.

After that, she lowered her head and said to Lorraine,

-Okay, let’s go to sleep. Girls shouldn’t stay up late. Otherwise, you won’t be pretty anymore.

Lorraine nodded obediently.

– I want my mother to sleep with me.

Mylene was amused by her.

“Okay, I’ll sleep with you tonight. You are already so old, yet you still like to act coquettishly.

Even though she said that, the smile on her face explained everything.

She held Lorraine’s hand and walked past Sebastien, not giving her husband a single glance the entire time.

Lorraine even secretly made a face at Sebastien, but Sebastien’s eyelashes drooped, as if he hadn’t seen it.

He was the only one, without saying anything. His head was down and no one knew what he was thinking.

Alessio seemed to have noticed his son’s disappointment. He walked forward, squatted down and said:

– I’ll buy you a new one later.

Sebastien raised his head and looked at his father, whose face was red. He smelled of alcohol and perfume that didn’t belong to his mother.

– Why doesn’t mom love me? Did I do something wrong?

Ever since he was a child he had heard the phrase

“She’s your little sister, you have to give in to her.”

– You are the older brother, you must protect her… Don’t be calculating with your younger sister over such a small matter.

“You’re a boy, don’t be so petty. You need to be more generous and treat your sister better.

They were born one minute apart.

Alessio’s expression froze for a moment. He reached out and touched her face.

– It’s not that I don’t love you. It’s just that Lorraine is a girl and you are a boy, so I will feel more sorry for Lorraine and be stricter with you.

Sebastien pursed his lips and said nothing. He only lowered his head.

He had heard this story many times.

– Okay, sleep early.

Alessio stood up and ruffled his hair.

– Your mother is right. Final exams are approaching. You must perform well and not let Grandpa down.

Grandfather was a strict and old-fashioned old man.

No one loved him, including his mother.

He lived with his grandfather for a long time. Because her mother didn’t like her grandfather, she didn’t like him when she lived with him either.
