AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

Chapter 28: I survived because I like you



– He has to work so he won’t come until later, explained Roxane.

Old Madame Alvarez nodded and asked:

-Did he treat you well?

“Yes,” she replied without hesitation. She wasn’t lying. Sebastien treated her really well. When she was injured, he helped her apply medicine every day. Besides finding her a driver, he also agreed to her request to have dinner with her family during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

After lunch, old Madame Alvarez returned to her room to rest.

Madame Alvarez took a card out of her bag at that moment and handed it to Roxane, saying:

– Roxane, I don’t know what to buy for you for the Mid-Autumn Festival. There’s money in this card, so buy what you like. I don’t know what young girls like today.

Roxane looked at the golden card and shook her head.

-Mom, I have money. There’s no need for that.

His parents gave him money every vacation. Sometimes they gave him red packets and sometimes they transferred the money to him. Apart from purchasing her art materials, she didn’t spend much on her daily life. Therefore, she had saved a small amount of money.

Mrs. Alvarez thrust the card into her hand and said:

– I know you’re very reasonable and don’t spend a lot of money, but that’s from mom and dad. You must accept it. This year, your father’s business has done quite well, so you don’t have to help him save money.

Roxane knew she couldn’t refuse even if she wanted to, so she accepted the card and said:

– Thanks Mom.

Madame Alvarez touched Roxane’s cheek and said:

– You really are a good child. You have suffered recently.

Due to old Mrs. Alvarez’s health, although Mrs. Alvarez knew that her daughter’s marriage was false, she could do nothing but accept the lie and let her daughter live under someone’s roof. ‘another.

Roxane smiled.

-Mom, I’m not in pain. Mr. Flores and brother are good friends so he treats me very well. Don’t worry.

Madame Alvarez nodded, but her eyes were slightly red.

-If only I hadn’t listened to your grandmother and accepted the engagement between you and the Rios family or sent you to the countryside…

Roxane didn’t want her mother to feel sad about the past anymore, so she interrupted her and said:

-Mom, it’s in the past. Can’t you see I’m doing pretty well now? I’m chubby, blond and full of hope!

– Absurdity. How did you become chubby? said Mrs. Alvarez, amused. She caressed Roxane’s face while continuing to say:

– I won’t ask for anything else as long as you are still healthy and happy.

Roxane chatted with her mother for a while before she finally returned to the room to rest. After also returning to her room, she put her gold card in the khaki bag she was carrying today. Her eyelashes fluttered slightly when she saw an old pink newspaper in the bag.

She took out the newspaper and sat at the desk by the window before opening it. What greeted him was the familiar and beautiful writing.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

– If I hadn’t met her, I would live my life and die peacefully. However, I met him and fell in love with him so I don’t want to die quietly. I want to live. I want to approach him openly and say out loud: My name is Roxane Alvarez. Thanks for the umbrella.

‘I want to live. Only by living will I have the chance to see him again. Only by living will I become better and have a chance to be by his side.

– I really want to live! I want to continue to love him. I want to tell him that I survived because I love him. Thanks to him, I have the courage to fight against all injustices.

-I really, really, really love him…

She closed the newspaper and sighed deeply. No matter how much she loved Diego, the person in her heart was not her.
