The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison)

Chapter 182

Harrison's sexy, thin lips moved slightly, kissing Roxanne's pretty earlobe. Lifting his head, his eyes

were filled with affection and desire, staring at her as if he wanted to draw her into his whirlpool of deep

feelings.

"Tonight, you're all mine," he said.

Steam rose from the pool, reflecting the serene and captivating night. In the night, Harrison's voice was

even lower and more enticing.

Roxanne was helpless. They'd been in the water for so long, and this man wanted to continue? She

tried to climb down from Harrison, pressing her toes down towards the bottom of the pool.

"No more. I want to go to bed," she said.

But he held her tightly, preventing her from touching the bottom of the pool.

"Harrison, let me down. I need to dry my hair and go to bed," she said.

"Call me darling," he said.

"Alright, darling, let me go. The client has sent the contract to my mailbox, and I have to go over it with

Chloe in the morning," Roxanne said.

Harrison still held her tightly, raising his eyebrows, "Is the contract written in Portuguese?"

"Yes," Roxanne answered.

"Then I can help you review the contract to see if there are any issues," he said.

"You speak Portuguese?" Roxanne asked.

"I know a bit," Harrison answered.

He was fluent in several languages but always modestly said he only knew a bit.

In fact, he couldn't fully tell her his abilities. Otherwise, she would suspect him again.

"Was it you who helped me with that Russian order last time? You speak not only Russian but also

Portuguese?" Roxanne asked.

"Why do I feel like you're capable of anything?" Roxanne asked again.

"I told you, I studied other languages in college, including Portuguese," Harrison said, his tone very

calm.

In reality, he learned foreign languages not in college but from a very young age with his siblings,

receiving an education higher than average. They were from a wealthy family, and their learning tasks

were heavy from a young age. The elders in the family often said that to grasp more of society's

resources, they must be better than the average person. Otherwise, they wouldn't be entitled to stand

at the top of society, enjoying the best resources at the top of the food chain.

Harrison lifted Roxanne out of the water, draped a towel around her, then wrapped one around himself.

He took her to take a shower, and by the time he was drying her hair, she had fallen asleep on his lap.

His fingers ran through her soft hair, all the way to the ends. "This little girl!" he muttered to himself.

Her sleeping posture was becoming more and more like a gentle kitten. He figured she must be tired

from his shenanigans.

He had wanted to be intimate with her again, but seeing her so tired, he decided to let her off the hook

for the night. After all, they could have a proper honeymoon in Novaria once she finished her work.

Harrison put down the hairdryer, carefully moving Roxanne's head off his lap, then carrying her to the

head of the bed, gently laying her down. He switched off the light, lay down next to her, and fell asleep

holding her.

Roxanne felt a familiar presence in her sleep and comfortably leaned into him.

Even when they slept, they were always in each other's arms.

Early the next morning, Harrison got up early and turned off Roxanne's alarm clock.

Then, he began to review all the contract signing materials for Roxanne's deal alone.

Her materials were thoroughly prepared.

Just as she had said, her work was very reliable. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

She had been paying attention to this company in Novaria for several years, going through all their

company documents to ensure they were genuinely interested in doing business with her.

Harrison had also helped her review the contract.

Everything was fine.

The profits were just a bit low.

However, the income was stable with a large trading volume and long-term cooperation.

No wonder Roxanne wanted to mortgage her house to get a loan to open a factory.

This way, she could save the price difference of outsourcing, ensure export quality, and reduce costs.

He patiently went through all these materials to ensure that Roxanne's contract signing went without a

hitch.

Then he received a call from Alexander. "Harrison, your wife's deal can be signed. There are no issues.

You can rest assured; her work is reliable."

"Your Chloe is also very outstanding," Harrison said, holding his phone and walking to the bedroom

balcony, "I heard from Anne that Chloe was the one who negotiated this contract."

Alexander asked, "What do you mean 'my Chloe'? How is Chloe mine?"

"Isn't she?" Harrison leaned casually against the railing, one hand on the railing, the other holding his

phone. His long legs were casually propped up on the railing.

He glanced at Roxanne inside through the sliding glass door. Looking at her, he felt very peaceful and

comfortable.

He chatted casually with Alexander, "I'm waiting for your good news. Alex, seriously, you should

consider marrying Chloe. She's much better than Hazel."

Alexander said, "I just got divorced. I haven't recovered yet. Don't rush me."

Harrison retorted, "The best way to heal a broken heart is to start a new relationship."

Alexander stated, "I'm not particularly in need of a woman."

Harrison said, "A woman who can be good friends with Anne must also be a good woman. If you miss

this opportunity, you won't get another one."

Alexander said, "You just love to praise your wife."

Harrison asked, "Don't I?"

Birds of a feather flock together. A woman who has been good friends with Roxanne for more than

twenty years must be as excellent and beautiful as her.

"I'm hanging up now," Alexander didn't want to listen to him prattle on.

In fact, thinking about his pretend relationship with Chloe, the corners of Alexander's mouth lifted

slightly.

Today, he and Amelia were going to pick up Aria from school together.

Alexander was suddenly looking forward to it.

The little girl was really very cute, very likable.

The matter with Hazel didn't seem to bother him as much anymore.

Aria got out of school at exactly four fifty in the afternoon.

Alexander and Amelia had plans for him to pick her up at four in the afternoon and head to school

together.

“Samuel.” At 3:40 in the afternoon, he walked into Samuel's office, “If there's any business with the

group, you handle it. I'm picking up Aria.”

Samuel looked up from his computer screen, frowning, “Harrison is with Roxanne. You're helping pick

up Chloe's kid. You two aren't been focused on work lately. You trying to work me to death?”

“With great power comes great responsibility,” Alexander slapped Samuel on the shoulder, chuckling,

“Because you're the most capable among us.”

“I don't agree.” Samuel brushed Alexander's hand away, “I want to chase girls too. Who wants to work

overtime every day?”

“Then go chase them.” Alexander joked, “Nora has been single for so many years. You should take the

initiative and go after her.”

“Who told you I want to pursue Nora?” Samuel laughed, “She's a goddess. I'm not good enough for

her.”

Alexander asked, “You admit it, don't you?”

“What if I admit?” Samuel laughed again.

His laughter looked a bit mischievous. But there was a hint of bitterness and helplessness in his

laughing eyes.

“Nora's heart is with Harrison; I can't get her.”

Alexander again patted Samuel on the shoulder.

He said, “Nora is different from Hazel. Even though Nora has Harrison in her heart, she never does

anything that makes Harrison unhappy. Look how long Harrison and Roxanne have been married.

When has Nora ever stirred up trouble? She quietly wishes Harrison and Roxanne well; she's a rare,

kind-hearted girl. If you like her, go after her; time waits for no one. Nora's almost thirty. Do you want

her to be a spinster?”

Samuel, with a smile on his face, seemed to be thinking.

Alexander patted him on the shoulder, then took his hand back, “Think about it. I'm off to pick up Aria

from school.”

As he walked away, Samuel shouted, “Alexander, after you pick up Chloe's daughter, do you have to

come back to the company?”

“Tonight, I'm having dinner with her daughter. Why should I come back?” Alexander stood at the door,

looking back.

Samuel frowned, “Those guys overseas want to steal our 6G-Technology again. Aren't you going to be

on guard?”

Alexander said, “With the expert Dominic Thompson that Harrison invited back, why should I worry? I'm

not a hacker.”

Samuel asked, “You and Harrison can't just let things be, right?”

Alexander said, “Don't worry, Roxanne's ex-boyfriend is reliable.”

He waved his hand and left.

Alexander made it to the underground garage.

Today, he didn't call for a driver, planning to pick up Aria himself.

In the distance, he saw Hazel leaning against his Rolls Royce.

He hadn't seen her for half a month.

Under Hazel's tight mermaid dress, her belly was slightly raised.

Hazel wore this dress today specifically to make her four-month pregnancy more apparent.

If she wore looser clothes, the pregnancy wouldn't be noticeable. However, this tight mermaid dress

really made her look pregnant.

She was already pregnant before the divorce.

Seeing her, Alexander's previously relaxed pace slowed and became heavier.

Finally, he stopped a few meters away from Hazel, frowning, “What are you doing here again?”

“Alexander, I'll ask you one last time, are you willing to remarry me?” Hazel looked at him with

anticipation in her eyes.

In her expectation, she also brought a bit of her old coquettish tone.

Alexander was no longer interested and he said coldly, “I don't want to answer this question again.”

But he felt the need to answer one more time, “I'd rather marry a sow again than remarry you.”

He actually said she was worse than a sow.

“In your eyes, am I that unbearable?” She started crying, tears flowing like a broken faucet.

Alexander retorted, “What do you think?”

“Didn’t you also sleep with Chloe? Let's just call it even, okay?”

Hazel walked over, lightly tugged on his suit, and started to act coquettish.

Alexander forcefully brushed her off.

His affair with Chloe was just a performance. He didn't actually sleep with her.

Hazel cried, “Dear, I won't mind that you've slept with Chloe. Can you forgive me? Anyways, we've both

slept with others; let's call it even this time; let's make up, okay?”

“Hazel, can't you figure it out?” Alexander found it laughable, “We're divorced; it's not a regular quarrel.”

Who wanted to get back with her?

“Dear!” Hazel pouted her lips and cried.

Alexander didn't want to look at her. He walked around her, went to the driver's side, and was about to

open the door and drive.

Hazel quickly ran over and grabbed him, preventing him from getting in the car, “Dear, I beg you.”

“Can you stop pestering me?” Alexander shook her off, shouting.

She was also provoked by him, “Alexander, don't forget that I'm pregnant.”

“And so what?” Alexander didn't back down, “The child isn't mine.”

“Is that so?” Hazel said, “Then let's bet on whether this child is yours or not.”

Alexander was left speechless with anger, “Hazel, you know how this child came about. Are you still

threatening me?”

“Yes.” Hazel laughed mockingly, “I really don't know who the father of this child is.”

Alexander was speechless with anger.

Hazel said, “I can also tell you clearly I've indeed betrayed you. I've been with seven men.”

Seven men.

He only knew about four.

Were there others he didn't know about?

Even though they were already divorced, Alexander was still furious.

He was so angry that his face turned red with veins popping out.

Just as he was about to speak, Hazel cut him off, "Don't jump the gun. Let me tell you something. Yes,

I've been involved with seven guys, but during the time I got pregnant, it was only you and that gym

trainer. This means that this baby is definitely one of you guys. I'm willing to bet that it's yours. I don't

believe that you'd really abandon us after the baby is born."

Now, he didn't want to remarry her.

But once the baby was born, he might reconsider for the sake of the child.

Hazel planned on sticking to Alexander like glue.

She was suffocating Alexander. This woman was a straight-up devil.

Seeing his silence, Hazel gave a cold laugh and said, "Alexander, raising your own flesh and blood is

surely better than playing stepdad to Chloe's two kids, don't you think?"

The basement light was dim.

Alexander's face looked even more gloomy.

He was so furious he could kill Hazel. However, he forced himself to calm down, his facial muscles

tense, "Hazel, I was on a business trip the month you got pregnant. I didn't touch you. The baby can't

be mine."

"What a coincidence," Hazel replied. "That month was exactly when I was feeling guilty and regretful

about you. I only had a thing with the trainer once. But the night you left, we had many... The baby

could very well be yours."

Alexander used to look forward to having a child with Hazel.

Now, this baby could be his, but he felt nothing but disgust and rejection.

He frowned and said, "Abort it."

Hazel gave a cold laugh.

Her smile was full of triumph, even a hint of threat, but mostly, it was her dark nature coming to the

fore.

"Alexander, I can abort the baby, but only if you remarry me. Otherwise, forget it."

"Remarrying is out of the question," Alexander replied firmly.

Hazel touched her slightly bulging belly and said, "Fine, then I'll give birth to this baby. If it turns out to

be yours, you can't possibly turn your back on it, right?"

Despicable!

Alexander was so mad that he could have a heart attack.

The smile on Hazel's face slowly faded, turning dark, "Alexander, we could have been good if you'd

agreed to remarry. We could have gone back to the way things were. But you insisted on this break.

Yes, I can't do anything about Harrison. I don't dare mess with his relationship with Roxanne or reveal

his true identity to her. But I understand you."

As long as this child existed. If the baby was his, she could completely control Alexander.

Alexander looked at the woman in front of him with utter disgust and said, "Hazel, even if you give birth

to this child, even if he really is my own flesh and blood, I will never remarry you."

Once upon a time, every time he looked at this woman, his eyes were full of warmth and affection.

Now they were like sworn enemies,and he believed he hadn't done anything wrong.
