Chapter 39: Consider it his birthday present
When they returned to the private room of the nightclub, the originally messy private room had already been cleaned up.
Roxane was the first to enter the room. As soon as she stepped foot into the strangely dark room, a loud ‘pop’ filled the air. Then she heard a multitude of voices saying in unison:
– Happy birthday !
She was surprised and instinctively withdrew, bumping into Sebastian.
He placed his hands on her shoulder to steady her as his eyes scanned the men and women in the now bright room. He frowned slightly as he said in a low voice:
– It’s good. Do not be afraid.
She composed herself and turned to look at Jessica in confusion.
Jessica’s embarrassed expression was replaced by an innocent smile as she explained:
– These are my friends who came to help you celebrate your birthday.
– Thank you, said Roxane.
She finally understood why Jessica had booked such a large room. It turned out that she had mobilized all her friends. She looked at the people in the room. They were all from rich families in M City. She also found a few of them familiar.
At this time, the eyes of the group of people were fixed on Sebastian. The women’s looks were particularly enthusiastic and their cheeks were red.
Roxane seemed to have thought of something. She stood between the group of people and Sebastian saying in a dignified manner:
– Thank you for coming to celebrate my birthday. Please make yourself comfortable and enjoy yourself.
Enzo entered unceremoniously. He took a glass of wine and emptied it in one gulp.
Then Jessica came in and greeted her friends.
Roxane turned to look at Sebastien with a slightly worried expression as she asked:
– How are you ? If you don’t feel well, you can come back first. Do not worry about me.
Sebastian looked at the people and the decoration of the room. Although he felt slightly uncomfortable, it was still bearable. He replied calmly:
– I’m doing well.
Roxane sighed inwardly with relief before saying:
– Oh that’s right. I will compensate your friend for the things my brother broke later.
He stretched his hand to the top of Roxane’s head saying:This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
– No need.
Thinking he was going to pat her on the head, Roxane instinctively avoided his hand. In the end, he only picked out a piece of golden confetti from his hair. Then he said:
– You can consider this a birthday present from him.
Roxane was stunned. Her face burned because she had misunderstood Sebastian’s intention earlier. She suppressed her embarrassment and said:
– No no. He doesn’t know me, after all.
– He’s been very busy lately. I’ll introduce him to you when he’s free.
“No need,” Roxane said without hesitation.
The first time she came here, she got the police to raid this place. The second time she came, she was the cause of a fight. Not only that, many things were broken in the private room. Although the club owner didn’t care, she felt very embarrassed.
Sebastien saw the embarrassed expression on Roxane’s face and smiled slightly.
She lowered her head and awkwardly scratched the back of her ear. His eyes wandered around before landing on Enzo who was drinking without any restrictions. She rushed to him and said:
-Brother, you are hurt. Don’t drink so much.
Enzo said:
– This injury is nothing. Today is your birthday and I haven’t wished you happy birthday yet.
Roxane silently exchanged the glass of wine in Enzo’s hand with a glass of juice.
He picked up the glass of wine again before continuing to say:
– I wish our little Roxane a happy birthday. You are now 20 years old.
“Thank you, brother,” she said with a smile, casually removing her brother’s glass of wine and giving him a glass of juice.
-Brother, you shouldn’t drink when you’re injured.
Enzo couldn’t say no to his sister at all. He said with a sigh:
– Okay, okay, I’ll listen to the birthday girl.
After taking a sip from the glass of juice, he took a box out of his pocket and handed it to Roxane.
– Here. It’s your birthday present.
