The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison)

Chapter 211

"I really don't lack material things."

She was already married to the richest man in Seraphim Haven. What else could she have possibly

needed?

Whatever she wanted, Harrison would give it to her.

Roxanne waved the stick in her hand, "Alexander, I accept your gift. But if you dare to pull a fast one on

me with Harrison again, I'll use this stick to teach you a lesson."

Alexander's forehead tightened.

He suddenly felt a burning sensation on his back.

As Evelyn pulled Roxanne away, he nudged Harrison's elbow and whispered, "You shut down

Roxanne's company and fired all her staff. Did you even tell her? Don't drag me into your mess."

Those things were all Harrison's doing.

Alexander felt pressured.

If Roxanne didn't know about that, wouldn't he be in deep trouble for helping Harrison pull such a

stunt?

Harrison didn't respond.

Alexander shot him a look, whispering, "Didn't you say you'd tell Roxanne once she's out of the

hospital?"

"I'll handle it." Harrison said, his gaze on Roxanne, who was now sitting on the couch, and his brows

furrowed.

A sense of suppression filled his features.

Evelyn was very fond of Roxanne.

"I really admire you. When Harrison said he was broke. His house was seized by the bank, and he

borrowed money from you, you didn't even turn him down. Weren't you afraid of marrying a con artist

who would swindle all your wealth?"

Roxanne chuckled, "Your brother is indeed a con artist. If I hadn't fallen for his tricks, how would I have

become part of your family? Didn't I score big time?"

"No, it's Harrison who scored. It's his luck to marry a woman like you. You aren't after his wealth and

are willing to face difficulties with him."

Evelyn, the daughter of a wealthy family herself, understood the power dynamics and reality of social

interactions.

Harrison was very handsome. But if he was just a poor worker, no matter how good-looking he was, he

wouldn't have been liked by so many rich heiresses.

Only Roxanne accepted him despite his ordinary status.

Just because of that, Evelyn really liked Roxanne.

"Did you know that your marriage to Harrison has been spread among our family and high society?

Everyone is curious about you. Our relatives want to meet you. Did Vincent tell you that he's planning a

party at the villa to formally introduce you to the family?"

Roxanne looked nervous. She asked, "A party?"

She had only seen such grand events on TV. She had never actually attended one.

"Yes." Evelyn smiled, "A party that Vincent is throwing especially for you."

Roxanne was surprised.

"I forgot to introduce you two to each other. This is Nora, my best friend."

Evelyn took Nora's hand and said, "You've met Nora before. You bumped into her car last time,

remember?"

Roxanne remembered very clearly.

"Roxanne, I'm finally able to meet you formally." Nora said politely, "I've always wanted to be friends

with you, but I didn't have the courage."

Ever since she knew that Harrison had married Roxanne and treated her genuinely, Nora had given up

all her feelings for Harrison.

Seeing the man she loved being with a woman who wasn't after his wealth, Nora felt relieved.

She believed that Roxanne would treat Harrison wholeheartedly.

However, all the things Nora once wanted to do for Harrison and care for him, she then needed

someone else to do, which made her feel a bit melancholic. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

But she had accepted that fate.

"Let's get to know each other officially today. I'm Nora." Nora extended her hand, indicating a

handshake with Roxanne.

Roxanne generously extended her right hand and said, "I’m Roxanne. We're friends from now on."

The three women chatted and gradually warmed up to each other.

In the evening, Harrison and Roxanne treated them to dinner.

After seeing them off, Harrison stood in front of the villa, one hand around Roxanne's waist, pulling her

close.

With his other hand, he pinched her nose, "So you and Nora are friends now? Aren't you afraid she still

has feelings for me and will make some moves?"

"You're overthinking." Roxanne turned her head to look at the discontent man.

"Nora is a good girl who truly understands people. She's not cunning at all; nothing like her sneaky

sister."

"What if she's as good at pretending as her sister?" Harrison purposely tested her.

In reality, having grown up with Nora, Harrison knew her very well.

She was indeed different from Hazel.

She was a true lady, well-bred, and of good character.

He was just trying to tease Roxanne to see her reaction and see if she cared about him.

Roxanne said with certainty, "I'm good at reading people. Nora isn't cunning. She's as innocent as

Chloe."

Was that about being good at reading people?

It was obvious that she didn't care about him.

There was such an excellent competitor in front of her, and she was not on guard at all.

Harrison was upset.

Roxanne had already left him and walked back into the villa.

"Can't you stay alert of your competitors?" Harrison strode forward, scooping her up into his arms.

Roxanne struggled in his arms, "Put me down. There are people in the house. It'll be embarrassing if

someone sees us. If you want to hold me, take me to the bedroom."

"Please answer my question seriously."

"What question?" Roxanne pretended to be clueless.

Knowing she was playing dumb, Harrison repeated his question, "Can't you stay alert of your

competitors?"

"What's there to be vigilant about? I know you're not the unfaithful type. No matter who tries to seduce

you, you won't fall for it."

"Should I be grateful for your trust, or should I be saddened by your indifference?" Harrison was not

pleased.

"Why the sadness? Isn't it a good thing that your wife trusts you this much?"

Harrison did feel a bit sad.

The wives of the CEOs and big bosses around him were always on edge, worried about their husbands

having affairs or keeping mistresses. They were always walking on eggshells.

Roxanne, on the other hand, didn't worry about such things at all.

"Excessive trust isn't a good thing either." Harrison lowered his head, nuzzling his nose against her

face. "A bit of vigilance would make me feel more loved."

"No."

"Don't you worry about me being snatched away by someone else?"

"There's nothing to worry about. If you can be taken away, then you're not mine."

"You're so indifferent to me. Wait till I punish you tonight."

"Put me down. It won't be good if someone sees."

Harrison carried Roxanne all the way up the stairs.

The nanny, seeing their affection, was about to bring up some milk but decided to turn back.

Back in the bedroom, Harrison carried Roxanne into the spacious bathroom.

"Why are you carrying me to the bathroom? I'm not ready to take a bath yet. I have to call Chloe."

Roxanne wrapped her arms around Harrison's neck.

Harrison gently put her down and kissed her sweet lips, "Call her tomorrow. Can we take a bath

together now?"

"Harrison, are you planning to take a bath or do something else? Don't think I don't know."

Roxanne in his arms, looking up at his lust-filled face, laughed.

She had already regained her strength.

She knew he couldn't hold back any longer.

That night, she would comfort him well.

Water splashed all over the floor by the bathtub.

Roxanne couldn't tell if the drops falling from Harrison's muscular chest were water or sweat.

She hugged his neck, her eyes full of sweetness.

"Harrison, I have something to discuss with you. I've recovered and I want to go back to the office

tomorrow. I'll be back for dinner with you, okay? From now on, I'll strive to balance work and family. And

I won't neglect you anymore."

Harrison's back suddenly tensed up.

"What's wrong?" Roxanne noticed his tension.

Harrison didn't know how to start. If she knew that he had shut down her company without her

knowledge, would she be upset?

After some passionate lovemaking, Harrison was originally content.

But at that moment, his expression was hard to read.
