The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison)

Chapter 178

Chloe said, "Your behavior is so disgusting, and you have no shame about it. Are you proud? How can

someone like you flaunt yourself in front of me?"

Her words hit home, and Hazel had no rebuttal.

Hazel willingly messed around with other men, was unfaithful to her own husband, and wrecked her

reputation.

That was why Alexander left her.

Hazel was speechless.

Her face turned red with anger and then pale again.

"You, you damn..."

After noticing that Hazel was losing her cool, Chloe felt a sense of satisfaction.

But this was not enough.

Chloe crossed her arms in front of her chest and confidently spoke, "I'm different. Yes, I've had

romantic experiences. I've been married and divorced. But Alexander accepts me. That means I'm way

better than you, a disgraced woman, don't you think?"

Unable to find any rebuttal, Hazel could only listen in silence while grinding her teeth.

Chloe continued. "Listen, Hazel. I'm Alexander's publicly recognized girlfriend now. You, his ex-wife

who betrayed him, are history. Don't even think about competing with me for Alexander."

"Even when you were unconscious, he didn't want to look at you. I was the one who persuaded him to

send you to the hospital. You owe me your life!"

"He has no feelings for you anymore."

"You'd better give up the idea of reconciling with him."

After saying this, Chloe stared at Hazel sternly, warning her not to cross the line.

They locked eyes for a moment, and Chloe sent her a clear message. She wouldn't back down easily.

Then she turned around and walked away confidently.

Hazel stood by the bed. She felt defeated and began weeping.

She had pulled out the IV needle in her struggle to get out of bed.

So now her hand was bleeding.

The nurse didn't know how to react.

She initially thought the woman who had burst in was a mistress who had stolen this patient's

boyfriend.

But it turned out that Hazel had been messing around with other men, not just one, and that was why

her husband wanted a divorce.

Now her husband had a new girlfriend, but she still wanted to cling to him?

Why didn't she cherish what she had when she had it?

The nurse felt disgusted by Hazel and didn't even want to give her an IV.

But as a healthcare professional, she had a duty to perform, so she stepped forward, grabbed Hazel's

hand, and said, "Sit back on the bed; I'll give you an injection. Don't move; it'll hurt if you do."

Hazel screamed in pain. "Are you trying to kill me? Can you even give an injection properly? If not, get

out!"

The nurse coldly replied. "You were the one who moved; why are you blaming me?"

The nurse felt disgusted when looking at this woman, who had betrayed her husband, and put a little

more force into the injection than necessary. After that, she turned around and left.

Such people were simply disgusting.

After leaving the hospital, Alexander gave Chloe a lift to work.

He was driving but didn't take his Rolls-Royce today because Chloe's workplace was in Urban Sun

Village.

The entrance was a narrow alley, and it would be inconvenient to drive a Rolls-Royce in.

In the car, he gripped the steering wheel and said, "Your response to Hazel was very confident. You

should keep that confidence."

"That was just an act. Actually, I know my status is not high, so I don't blame Hazel for thinking I'm not

good enough for you."

But then she quickly added, "Don't worry, I won't let Hazel get the upper hand in front of me."

She was well aware of her own situation and knew how to conduct herself.

At a red light, Alexander glanced at her. "Hazel will definitely be hostile to you; if she gives you any

trouble, call me right away."

He dropped her off at the office and then left.

Roxanne saw Chloe standing at the door, watching Alexander's car leave, and came over to lightly pat

her shoulder.

"Are you so reluctant to part? Did something happen between you and Mr. Alexander last night?"

Chloe was startled.

Roxanne had a mischievous smile on her face. "Chloe, did you sleep with him last night?"

"What are you talking about?" Chloe started to get nervous.

"Why were you looking so reluctant when Mr. Alexander's car was leaving?"

"I wasn't reluctant!"

"Oh, are you blushing?"

"I'm not!!"

"Haha." Roxanne laughed. "I think a new chapter of your love life is about to begin. Look, you didn't

even remove the makeup I did for you yesterday."

Chloe was speechless.

"Did you keep the makeup on because you were afraid you wouldn't look good in front of Mr.

Alexander?"

Chloe was a bit evasive; she didn’t want to admit it. She was a bit shy.

Roxanne originally thought that Chloe would become depressed after the hurt Oliver had caused her.

She thought Chloe would even be afraid to get involved in a relationship again.

However, to her surprise, just three or four months after Chloe's divorce from Oliver, a perfect man

named Alexander appeared in her life, reigniting her hope and longing for love.

This was a good thing.

Roxanne saw through Chloe's thoughts but didn't say it out loud to save her the embarrassment.

She linked arms with Chloe and said, "I'll give you the makeup kit I used yesterday and teach you how

to do your makeup properly. We don't necessarily put on makeup just to please others, right? We have

the right to look beautiful every day."

Chloe went along with it. "Yes, who said I put on makeup for Mr. Alexander? I do it because it makes

me feel more energetic and confident."

"Right, right, right, it's not for Mr. Alexander." Roxanne agreed, a secret smile playing on her lips. She

was more convinced than ever that Chloe was starting to care about Mr. Alexander's opinion of her.

In the following days, she noticed that Chloe had not only started wearing makeup but also signed up

for yoga classes nearby. Chloe was going to yoga every day at lunchtime, returning more refreshed

and energetic each time. She seemed more concerned about her appearance now.

After a long day, Roxanne came home late at night. After her shower, she crawled into bed, longing to

curl up in Harrison's arms. Harrison, however, had already pulled her towards him. She yawned and

prepared for sleep, but she wanted to share her news with Harrison first.

"Harrison, I have some good news." She said while nestled in his arms. "Chloe has started wearing

makeup every day, going to yoga classes, and even looking up ways to get rid of freckles online. She

must be starting a new romance soon."

Harrison turned to face her, his eyes full of tenderness. He leaned over her and spoke with a hint of

jealousy in his voice. "In my arms, you're not allowed to talk about others. Got it?"

The more dissatisfied he was, the more insistent he became. So an intimate moment began. Roxanne,

while pushing against his chest, reminded him. "You need to get a condom. I'm on the pill right now and

can't get pregnant."

Harrison got up quickly, as if he were following an order, but came back frowning. "We're out."

"What? Are we out already? Didn't we just buy some at the beginning of the month?" Roxanne sat up,

her pajamas half undone, revealing her soft curves and delicate skin.

Harrison laughed helplessly. It had been two weeks since the beginning of the month, and they had

already gone through a box of condoms. Was that a lot? Not at all, he thought.

He quickly dressed up, promising to return soon. It should have taken him at least ten minutes to go

downstairs and buy something, but he was back in six. When he returned, the room was quiet.

Roxanne was asleep, curled up around a pillow like a little piglet. Harrison laughed again, feeling a bit

sorry for himself.

The next day, in order to let Roxanne sleep in, Harrison turned off her alarm. He prepared breakfast

and went to wake up Roxanne. After helping her brush her teeth and getting her ready, he led her to

the breakfast table.

"Roxanne, if you have time today, come with me to the hospital for a checkup and see how your body is

recovering." Vincent, who lived next door, proposed this idea to her at breakfast.

"Today? I might be busy today."

"I have already booked an appointment with Dr. Maxwell for you. It won't take much of your time, just

an hour at most."

Harrison agreed with his father, urging Roxanne to go.

Roxanne, seeing how much her father-in-law cared for her health, couldn't refuse. She went to the

hospital with the father-son duo for a thorough checkup. She found it quite convenient to know

someone at the hospital, which saved her a lot of waiting time.

But for Harrison and Vincent, this seemed a bit like a waste of time.

Back in the day, they could simply have a doctor come to their house for check-ups; there was no need

for all this running around.

But to appear normal in front of Roxanne, they had to play the part and come to the hospital to register

and see a doctor.

Thankfully, after an hour of examination, Roxanne's health was found to be in top shape. Her

previously weak body was also back to normal.

Dr. Maxwell was as he always was; although in his fifties with slightly graying hair, he still spoke with Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

force and had a powerful voice.

"Health is great; you’ll have no issues getting pregnant."

Vincent was over the moon.

His eyes squinted into a line as he laughed, busily asking, "Dr. Maxwell, any tricks to ensure Roxanne

gets pregnant with a girl right away?"

Dr. Maxwell wanted to blurt out, “Vincent, oh Vincent, you oddball; everyone else wants sons to carry

on their family businesses; why on earth do you prefer girls?”

But it wasn't that surprising.

Dr. Maxwell had been their family doctor for almost thirty years. He remembered when Vincent's wife

was still around, and at forty, Vincent wanted a daughter.

He never had a daughter himself, so now he was hoping his daughter-in-law could have one.

Dr. Maxwell nearly let slip their true identities.

But quickly corrected himself. "No tricks. It depends on your son's chromosomes; it’s all random.”

Vincent wanted to keep asking but decided to ask Dr. Maxwell privately later.

“Dad.” Harrison comforted him. “If Roxanne’s first child is a daughter, great. If not, it’s still your

grandchild. Roxanne and I only plan to have one child.”

“A grandson is fine, but I still prefer a granddaughter.”

Roxanne was left speechless by this father-son duo.

The doctor only said she could get pregnant, but she wasn’t pregnant yet.

And yet they were so concerned and already thinking of so many things that were in the future.

She was truly lucky to marry into their family, which allowed her to be cared for and looked after like

this.

After returning from the hospital, Harrison dropped Roxanne off at work.

That afternoon, after Vincent returned home, he was busy preparing some things.

Harrison arrived home before Roxanne.

Ever since he and Roxanne became husband and wife, Harrison no longer wanted to be that wealthy

and powerful CEO.

He just wanted to spend every day in the home he and Roxanne shared.

He left everything for Alexander and Samuel to handle.

Even when Roxanne wasn't home, just seeing her personal effects and feeling her presence in the

house made Harrison incredibly happy.

As soon as he entered the house, he saw that Vincent had already set up flowers, wine, and

candlesticks.

Vincent was squatting on the floor, plucking rose petals one by one and then arranging them into heart

shapes.

They lead all the way from the entrance to the bedroom.

Harrison furrowed his brows as he stood at the door. "Dad, what the hell are you doing?"

"I'm setting up a romantic candlelit dinner for you guys, adding some romantic vibes." Vincent

continued arranging his petals as he spoke.

As he arranged, he continued. "I heard that when a woman is in a good mood during intercourse, the

quality of pregnancy is higher, and the child will be smarter."

He finished one heart shape and continued on to the next.

Then he added, "Your mother was able to give birth to a smart kid like you because I used this method

back then."

Harrison seemed to see the scene of Vincent's courtship back in the day.

Was this how he interacted with his own wife?

He looked so serious normally, but was he actually a romantic?

"Do you have to make it so fancy?" Harrison closed the door and walked in.

When he closed the door, he brought in a gust of wind, blowing away some of the rose petals on the

floor.

Vincent carefully picked them up. "Hey, punk, be careful; don't ruin my romantic setting."

Harrison walked in and sat on the couch. "As a man, you should be more straightforward."

If it were him, he wouldn't do these flashy things.

He would go straight to the point.

With such a beautiful and enchanting wife in his arms, who had time to wait for all this foreplay?

But since his old man insisted on making it this romantic, he didn't object.

A romantic and beautiful environment might put Roxanne in a better mood.

He also squatted down to join in the arrangement.

"Dad, what do you think Roxanne will say when she sees this?"

"She'll definitely be very happy."

"You still don't understand your daughter-in-law; she’ll definitely say we’re wasting money.”

“Dad, if Roxanne knew you arranged all this, what do you think she would think? Would she think

you’re not doing anything productive all day and only caring about these trivial matters?”

Even their intimate moments, whether romantic enough or not, were within his concern.

Was this reasonable?

"You little punk, you absolutely cannot tell Roxanne this was arranged by me."

"Didn't you teach me not to lie since I was little?"

"Haven't you lied to Roxanne before?"

Harrison arranged the rose petals one by one, saying determinedly, "Alright, don't worry, we'll try our

best."

After she gave birth, he would tell her all the details of his life, making her the happiest lady in the

world.
