AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

-Lorraine

Sebastian couldn’t help but scream. He wanted to grab her hand, but her nails brushed the back of his hand and fell off in an instant.

She didn’t give Sebastien a chance to react, and she didn’t give anyone a chance to react…

She fell hard on the cement road below.

Sebastian’s entire body was frozen to the window. His pupils were dilated and he looked at this scene in disbelief. His eyes were red.

The hand outstretched through the window trembled.

He was shaking violently.

The Flores family quickly descended into chaos. Mylene slapped Sebastien constantly as if she had gone crazy. His blond face quickly swelled and there was an obvious handprint on it.

Alessio stopped Mylene, and the others did the same, but their eyes on Sebastian still had a deeper meaning.

He stood still, neither crying nor making a fuss, but the hands hanging at his sides were trembling. Nobody noticed it.

Roxane curled up in a corner, letting her tears flow without stopping. She was powerless to stop what Sebastien was going through.

Apart from seeing the servant who had framed him standing in the corner with an undetectable smile, no one else could see him.

This smugness was the smile of victory.

……

Lorraine was dead and the Flores family had completely become an icy cage.

Alessio was very busy with work and was often not at home. Mylene, on the other hand, was in great grief after losing her daughter and was like a walking corpse.

But every time she saw Sebastian, she turned into a crazy woman, crying and screaming, punching and kicking Sebastian, calling him “murderer” and “murderer”.

Sebastien never resisted or defended himself. He silently accepted all her actions.

Including abuse.

Mylene seemed to have found the motivation to live, and she used all means to humiliate Sebastien.

She locked him in the dark, cold cellar for a day and a night. When the butler took him away, he had a high fever and was unconscious.

It was snowing and he had to stand in the fountain as punishment. He had to kneel and repent at the place where Lorraine had fallen when she died.

The light in Sebastian’s eyes was completely extinguished. His eyes were empty and numb, as if he had lost his soul.

He always had all kinds of injuries on his body. Some came from blows, others from cigarette burns and others from ashtrays…

He couldn’t eat his fill every day. Mylene did not allow anyone to give him anything to eat and he visibly lost weight. It was as if he was skin and bones and could be blown away by the wind.

Ultimately, it was the school teachers who discovered the injuries on his body and informed Alessio.

Alessio brought Sebastian home and became angry, demanding a divorce.

However, Mylene changed his attitude and begged him not to divorce him. She promised she would never do it again.

Alessio knew she was too heartbroken over losing her daughter, so his heart softened and he accepted.

He took Sebastien to the doctor, touched his head and asked:

-Why didn’t you tell Dad?

Sebastien’s thick, fan-shaped eyelashes trembled slightly. He raised his head and said:

– Send me back. Give me to grandpa, to an orphanage, anywhere.

Alessio shook his head and said:

– You are my child. I won’t send you away.

Sebastien licked his lips and said in a hoarse voice:

– I caused the death of my sister

– It’s not your fault. said Alessio in a firm tone,

– The police already said it was an accident! Lorraine climbed out of the window herself and fell by accident.

– But I have an antisocial personality. Sebastien repeated.

Alessio sat down next to him and wrapped his long arms around his slender body. He said in a deep voice:

-What you become is up to you, not what others say you will become!

His warm palm rubbed the top of her head.

– I think you will become a very responsible man in the future.

“Don’t hate mom, she’s just… Too sad,” he added after a pause.

To the hospital.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Roxane was sent to the emergency room. Although the doctor had saved her and her life was no longer in danger, she had not woken up.

The doctor had examined Christine. Apart from a few abrasions, there were no major injuries. Raoul asked someone to send her a set of clean clothes so she could change.

Such a big thing was in the news, and it couldn’t be hidden from Sabrina and Joel. Both of them rushed to the hospital and Roxane had already been transferred to the ward.

She wore the hospital gown, which was loose on her body, making her look particularly small and thin. His face was pale and bloodless, and his eyes were closed. If it hadn’t been for the fogging of his breathing mask, it seemed like she wouldn’t have been able to detect his vital signs.

Sebastien was still wearing his wet clothes and the water from his pants was dripping onto the floor. His pale face was almost numb, and his dark eyes stared at her, not even daring to blink.

He was afraid that she would disappear from his sight in the blink of an eye.

Enzo’s eyes were red as he grabbed Sebastian’s collar and lifted him up. He gritted his teeth.

– What did you promise me? You promised me you wouldn’t let her get involved in the Flores family mess! Look what she has become now!

Sebastian allowed him to grab his collar without any resistance. His face was ashen, and he was even looking forward to a punch.

This way he would feel better.

He didn’t protect Roxane well, just like he didn’t protect Lorraine well in the past!

– It’s done,

Sabrina stepped forward and pulled Enzo away.

– You can’t blame Sebastien for that. He didn’t want anything to happen to Roxane.

Joel took a deep breath and agreed with Sabrina.

– Your mother is right. Who could imagine that Sebastien’s mother would do such a thing!

As parents, they could not understand Mylene’s actions.

Sabrina glanced at Roxane on the bed, her eyes red.

– Nothing is more important than your sister waking up.

Joel patted Enzo on the shoulder,

– I don’t like you fighting. Don’t cause a scandal in the room.

Enzo sat down on the bed, dejected. His Phoenix eyes looked at the unconscious Roxane with heartbreak and his voice was slightly muffled.

– Roxane…
