Chapter 4 94: Is this… really my house?
At noon, Sebastien and Roxane had lunch with the Alvarez family. After lunch, they returned to their Villa to pack their things and get ready to go to the countryside for their honeymoon.
Roxane was afraid that there were too many mosquitoes in the countryside, so she asked the butler to bring more mosquito repellent potions.
Sebastien suddenly received a call from Raoul and went to the office to resolve some company matters.
Roxane took the initiative to help him pack his clothes and belongings. She opened the drawer of her bedside table and saw a bottle. She took it out to take a look out of curiosity.
Her long, curled eyelashes suddenly trembled as she muttered:
– Stabilizing pills…
She knew this kind of medicine very well. She took it often, but she never took it again after her recovery. Naturally, it was not his own medicine, but Sebastian’s.
His fingers were empty and the medicine had been taken away.
Roxane looked up and saw Sebastien’s serious expression. She pursed her dry lips.
– Sebastien…
He narrowed his eyes and placed the medicine bottle behind him. His voice was calm.
– I just have occasional insomnia. The doctor prescribed me some medicine.
Roxane crouched on the ground and looked at him. She remained in this position for a long time.
Sebastien saw that she didn’t believe him.
“If you don’t believe me,” he said, “I can call Dr. Pearson. You can ask him yourself.
Roxane looked down, her long eyelashes leaving a slight blue shadow under the corners of her eyes. His sadness was beyond words.
– I still have a secret that you don’t know. If I really want to know something, there’s a 50% chance I can see it in my dreams.
Sebastien sighed helplessly. He squatted down beside her and pinched her sweet face with his big palm.
-How is this the favor of God? you are simply cheating. I really can’t hide anything from you in the future.
Roxane looked up and asked in a low voice:
-Is it because I went to Paris? She asked.
Sebastien sat down next to her and said lightly:
– Not exactly. I couldn’t sleep well in the past and have slept less in the last two years. But with the medicine prescribed by the doctor, it’s okay.
Roxane held his arm and leaned her head on his shoulder.
– Sebastien, I will be with you. You will feel better.
Sebastien patted his little head.
– Mm, have you finished packing?
They had just finished their marriage and didn’t want to talk about these unhappy things.
Roxane nodded.
– I’ve already done it. You can check it.
Sebastian picked her up and checked the items in the box: clothes, a toothbrush, toothpaste, a razor and even her underwear.
-You forgot something very important.
– What?
Sebastien opened the second drawer, which was full of condoms of all brands and smells…
Roxane was speechless.

Roxane’s hometown was not far from M’s town. It only took an hour’s drive to get there.
On the second day of their marriage, she wore a red dress and tied her hair in a simple ponytail. She had put on sunscreen before getting out of the car to avoid getting sunburned.
However, when they got out of the car, they were still stunned, not by the sun, but by the small bungalow in front of them.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
-Is this… really my house? Roxane pointed at the small bungalow in front of her in disbelief.
Formerly, there were no buildings in the village. Grandma’s house was the only two-story building. Today, the village has been replaced by buildings. The original two-story building had become a Western-style home with a courtyard and front lawn…
If she hadn’t seen the familiar signs along the way, she would have suspected it was a resort!
Sebastian asked Logan to move the luggage and held an umbrella at her side to protect her from the sun.
– I accompanied your parents to pay homage to our ancestors during the festival. I saw that the building was a bit old, so I asked someone to renovate it.
– You rebuilt everything, didn’t you? Roxane was still in shock.
Sebastian smiled and didn’t explain. Instead, he changed the subject.
– Do you want to take a ride first?
Logan and the others had to carry five or six suitcases, so they would be in the way if they went in now.
Roxane nodded.
Sebastien took her hand and walked around the house. In addition to the front yard, there was also the back yard. Even the small vegetable garden that old lady Alvarez had planted in the past had been repaired. A well had been specially built and connected to a water pipe, so it was more convenient to water.
There were also sycamore trees and begonia flowers planted around. At this time, the begonia flowers were in full bloom and the air was filled with a light fragrance.
– I don’t think I’ll want to go back even if I stay here.
Compared to the hustle and bustle of the city, she preferred the quiet of the village, where she worked at sunrise and rested at sunset.
-Then we won’t go back. If you like this place, I will stay here with you for the rest of our lives, Sebastian said without hesitation.
-And the company?
– Your brother and Raoul are in the company. I go back for a meeting once a month, and I will come back the same day!
He hadn’t slept well in the last two years, but he hadn’t wasted much time. Now that the business was growing steadily, the wealth he had accumulated was more than they could spend in ten lifetimes.
Roxane thought it was a good idea.
– Let’s go on our honeymoon first. I might get tired of staying a few days and want to go back to town.
Sebastian nodded.
It didn’t matter where she wanted to go or live. He would let her go to the ends of the earth, sky and earth.
The first night of their stay, Roxane personally prepared a nice meal with the food she had brought back.
Not only Sebastian, but even Patrice and Logan, who were traveling with them, felt a little reluctant to leave after being full.
Once he left, he would no longer be able to eat the food that Madam personally prepared.
Sebastien was heartless. After Logan and Patrice finished washing the dishes and cleaning the floor, he asked them to leave.
Patrice still had work to do, so he had to go back even if he didn’t want to.
– President Flores, should I stay? Logan asked hesitantly.
If he stayed, he could eat Madame’s cooking every day and receive his salary. It was two birds with one stone.
As for washing dishes and cleaning the floor, that was nothing.
Patrice looked at him with jealousy, his eyes full of disdain.
-How could a man bend over to eat a bite?
Logan was impassive:
-What else do people live for besides food?
Sebastian sneered and rewarded him with one word: disappear a.
Logan’s face was calm, but he was very disappointed.
At night, they both made love in the room where Roxane lived when she was young.
The old small single bed had been replaced by a 1. 8 meter large bed, and a pink gauze curtain was hung on the top to prevent mosquitoes from flying out.
Roxane was pressed against the back of the bed by her waist. Her voice was as soft as a cat’s meow, and it scratched Sebastian’s heart.
Outside the window, the sky was full of stars and countless insects were chirping.
– My angel, my angel…
Two thin lips whispered in his ear, half real and half fake, like in a dream.
There were too many mosquitoes in the countryside. Even the curtains couldn’t keep the mosquitoes from coming into intimate contact with Roxane’s fair skin.
Sebastien didn’t sleep all night. He sat by the bed and gently fanned it with a feather fan to drive away the mosquitoes.
