AN UNEXPECTED GROOM

The outside temperature was low. Sebastien didn’t want Roxane to catch a cold outside, so he asked the butler to invite her into the living room.

He went to the living room with Roxane to see who it was.

Roxane was stunned when she saw Diego, who was wearing a black down jacket and looking uncomfortable.

Diego turned to look at her and gave her an awkward, rude smile.

– Roxane, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen you.

– It’s been a long time, She quickly came to her senses and greeted him, please sit down.

Over time, Diego’s mother and sister received the punishment they deserved. As for him, he was just a familiar stranger to her.

Diego took a look at the genuine leather sofa worth hundreds of thousands and waved his hand.

– No, I can’t sit down. I just heard you had a baby, and I came back to do something, so I thought I’d come and congratulate you.

Although the Rios and Alvarez families no longer have any contact, their previous relationships were still there, so it was not strange to hear news from the Alvarez family.

Roxane says:

– THANKS. The atmosphere suddenly fell into dead silence and awkwardness.

Diego rubbed his hands against his pants worriedly and took two red packets out of his pocket and passed them to her.

– Congratulations, this is a small token of my appreciation for both children.

Roxane hesitated and didn’t take it, but Sebastien reached out to take it and said:

– THANKS.

Seeing this, Roxane added:

– THANKS.

Diego felt the awkwardness in the air and did his best to keep his composure.

“Then I won’t bother you anymore. Bye.

Roxane nodded.

– Bye.

After that, she asked the butler to send him away.

Diego limped to the door. When he passed Roxane, his heart was filled with endless disappointment and sorrow.

If he hadn’t abandoned her to look for Leila at the wedding, they would already be together, and he would be the one holding the two children and hearing the congratulations.

One misstep led to many more missteps. It was useless, no matter how much regret he had now.

Diego gathered his chaotic thoughts and was about to leave when the man’s cold and unhappy voice suddenly came from behind him.

– I say, what are you two doing? Are you going to drink again or not?

Diego’s expression froze. It was as if he had been struck by lightning and was unable to move.

– What are you doing here ?

Jonas came closer and said disdainfully:

-Who did you come to meet?

“Don’t drink so much,” Roxane said in a light and pleasant voice. No one will fire you later.

-Who needs to be sent away? I will come back myself. Jonas scoffed. Do you think I have an undeserved reputation as the racing god of M City?

– I will call you and report you. You are the car god of M City!

Jonas was speechless.

When Diego heard her voice, the humiliation and anger hidden deep in his heart arose.

The man’s voice from that night kept ringing in his ears.

“You are not worthy of her!”

“Go back and divorce, if you still want your dog life.”

“I’m not very patient. Don’t make me wait too long.”

“Don’t intimidate him. I’ll take one of your eyes if you make it shed a tear!

He didn’t remember the details of that night, such as the other person’s appearance, but he remembered the person’s voice very clearly.

He did not forget even in death!

Diego turned around and looked at Jonas. His eyes were red and his voice was trembling.

– It’s you… It’s you…

Jonas’ unruly eyes swept over him and he almost blurted out:

-Who the hell are you?!

Diego was overcome with anger and threw himself at Jonas.

-I will beat you to the death!

He limped towards Jonas, but before he could touch his sleeve, he was pushed back.

Jonas frowned and said in a cold voice:

-Who the hell are you?

Diego was knocked to the ground. He raised his head and looked at him reluctantly.

– It was you who put me in this state. My face, my legs, it’s all thanks to you!!

He touched her cheek. The scar was from the night he had been burned by a cigarette, and it had followed him all his life with this humiliation.

Jonas still didn’t remember who he was. His expression was arrogant and presumptuous.

-I have hurt so many people. Who the hell knows who you are?

Roxane frowned.

-Jonas…

He immediately added:

– the past. It was the past. I am now a real manager and I certainly won’t do anything illegal!

When Diego heard what he said, he couldn’t help but burst out laughing, laughing so hard that tears were about to fall.

Roxane looked at him with a strange expression.

– Diego, what are you laughing at?

Diego was still laughing madly.

– Diego, did you have any grudges with Jonas in the past? can you…

Before she could finish, Diego stopped laughing and said in a sinister voice:

– Roxane, do you know that this person killed your grandmother? You let him be your manager, but you treat your enemy as your friend!

Roxane’s face darkened.

– What nonsense are you talking about?

– What nonsense are you talking about? Jonas also said with a straight face.

-Am I talking nonsense?

Diego stood up shakily and looked at Jonas with a vicious look.

– At the time, in the alley of this bar, you asked someone to break my legs, burn my face with a cigarette and threaten me to divorce Roxane!!!

Jonas’ expression suddenly froze, and the image that had faded appeared in his mind.

Seeing that he was silent, Diego looked at Roxane and pointed to Jonas.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“Did you know he was the one who beat me and sent me to the hospital that night?” Without him, my mother wouldn’t have gone to find Grandma Alvarez, and she wouldn’t have died. This is the man who started all this!

Roxane shook her head gently, refusing to believe his words.

– It’s impossible… It can’t be Jonas! You must have got the wrong person!

Diego sneered.

– I admitted my mistake. Why don’t you ask him yourself? did he really hit me?

Roxane said nothing in the face of his angry questioning. Instead, she looked at Jonas.

-Jonas…

She wanted to say something but stopped, her eyes full of pleading.

She hoped that Jonas would have nothing to do with her grandmother’s death, either directly or indirectly.

Facing the pleading look in her eyes, Jonas couldn’t say a single word to deceive her.

At the time, she had mistakenly considered Diego as her husband and felt that Diego was not worthy of her. That’s why she wanted them to divorce. However, she never thought that this would lead to the death of her family!

He didn’t speak, but Roxane had already gotten the answer from his expression. The last hope in his heart was shattered.

She slapped Jonas’ face hard.

Jonas turned his face to the side, and as if someone had pressed on his acupuncture points, he remained frozen in place.

Roxane didn’t say a word. She just turned around and went upstairs with disappointment in her eyes.

Jonas suddenly panicked. He looked at her back, helpless, like a child abandoned by an adult…

“Good, good…” he said.
