Chapter 4 79: You still intimidate me.
When Roxane receives Logan’s call, her suspended heart finally calms down.
Sebastien came out of the bathroom, naked with a black bath towel around his waist. It was still wet when it arrived.
He could tell who made the call by their face.
– We find her.
A statement was not a question.
Roxane nodded.
-Logan sent her back to the hotel.
Sebastien approached her and sat down. He wrapped his long arms around her and pressed his lips to her ear.
-Are you very sad?
Roxane seemed to know what he was worried about. She tilted her head and smiled.
– It happened a long time ago. I gave up. Don’t be so paranoid.
Sebastien lowered his head and kissed her on the cheek. He said in a gratifying tone:
– Awesome !
Roxane rolled her eyes and said:
– I can be angry with her for lying to me. I can beat her or scold her. These are things between us. Do not intervene.
– I didn’t plan to touch her, but you wanted to protect her so much…
-Seb!
She turned around and wrapped her arms around his neck. She raised her head and kissed him several times on the cheek.
– Jessy is my best friend, so don’t be jealous of her.
Sebastien appreciated her throwing himself into his arms and deliberately said with an impassive face:
-It will depend on your sincerity.
Roxane was so angry that she bit his shoulder and wanted to complain at first.
“You still intimidate me.
-Is this… intimidation?
His low, hoarse voice trailed off as his lips ravaged the corners of his lips. Roxane couldn’t stop shaking.
This man… had long been perverse to the core.
–
The next time Jessica saw Roxane was three days later. Roxane had taken the initiative to call him.
She wasn’t angry, but someone was very clingy and had been harassing her for three days. If she hadn’t been called back by the company, she wouldn’t have been able to come out today.
That night, Jessica had locked herself in her room and refused to eat or drink since returning to the hotel. She looked haggard and had obvious dark circles around her eyes. When she looked at Roxane, she couldn’t hide the guilt in her eyes…
The two friends who talked about everything since they met were now sitting face to face, speechless.
Roxane was a little upset, but she wasn’t so angry that she wanted to argue with her. She just didn’t know where to start.
In the end, Jessica spoke first. She said in a low, hoarse voice:
“Oh, if you’re angry and don’t want to be friends with me, I can understand. It is you who have been hurt, and it is also you who have been deceived. If you want to scold me, you can hit me. I won’t fight back.
-Ah!
Roxane opened her mouth and looked dazed.
– I… I’m not here to cut ties with you.
Jessica’s bloodshot eyes were filled with astonishment.
-Oh, you…
– I was very angry when I found out that night, but I never thought about breaking up with you. You’re my best friend !
Roxane’s sweet voice laughs.
-Besides, it wasn’t you who harassed me at the time!Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Tears fell from Jessica’s eyes. She sobbed:
– I’m sorry…
Roxane’s heart hurt at the sight of his tears. She got up, sat down next to her and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
– Do not Cry ! I will definitely get back at you for lying to me, but don’t cry. If you cry like that, I won’t dare!
Jessica knew she was trying to comfort her and felt even worse. She hugged her and started crying.
– Oh, you are so nice…
Roxane patted him on the back and persuaded him:
– Alright Alright. Don’t cry, Jessy! You won’t look good if your eyes are swollen from crying.
Jessica sobbed.
– It’s okay if it doesn’t look good.
-That won’t be enough. My bridesmaid must be pretty, Roxane said in a flirtatious tone. Otherwise, I will lose face.
Jessica looked up in surprise.
“Roxy… Are you still willing to let me be your maid of honor?”
– Of course!
Roxane wiped the tears from her face and said righteously:
– You lied to me, so this time you’re going to be my maid of honor, you’ll do everything for me and you won’t receive any red packets!
Jessica smiled through her tears and shook her head.
– I don’t want a red packet. You can enslave me as you wish in the future. I will be your slave and I will do whatever you want!
“Very good,” she said.
Roxane looked at his haggard look and said with sorrow:
– You haven’t eaten or rested well in recent days, eat something and sleep well.
Jessica nodded.
Roxane signaled the waiter to serve the dishes. The two chatted while they ate and soon the estrangement between them disappeared and they reconciled.
Really good friends were like that. They argued and had cold wars, but each time they reconciled, forgot the unpleasantness and never held grudges.
When they were almost finished eating, Roxane couldn’t help but mention Enzo.
– Jessy, my brother…
Jessica interrupted before she could finish.
– Don’t blame him, he’s just worried about you.
Jessica ate, and the knot in her heart was untied. His expression has improved a lot. She raised her head and her eyes were clear.
– I finally know why he hated me all these years. I can finally let it go.
In the past, she never understood why, but now that she did, she could feel at ease.
She was too stubborn and childish. She was still unwilling to give up like this, and she was so proud that she refused to admit that she liked him. Now, it can be considered that Enzo has erased the last regrets and reluctance from his heart.
From now on, she would no longer pity him and she would no longer miss this unrequited love.
