The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison)

Chapter 292

Roxanne didn't turn around.

She still stood facing the direction of the security check, holding little Angela in her arms.

The voice from behind sent a chill down her spine, causing her to clutch Angela tighter.

"Mommy, what's wrong?" Angela noticed the change in her mother.

Angela's chubby hand, which had been wrapped around her mother's neck, reached out to touch

Roxanne's face. "Mommy, why are you so nervous?"

Roxanne fluttered her tear-stained lashes weakly, "Nothing, darling, mommy isn't nervous."

Her trembling voice betrayed her.

Angela planted a kiss on her mom's cheek.

Just when she was about to comfort her mom, she suddenly noticed Mr. Hard standing behind her

mom.

Oh no!

Did dad hear what she just said to Uncle Dominic? NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Would he be angry?

After all, she had told Uncle Dominic that she only wanted him, not her dad.

Even for the Tuesday field trip, she wouldn't take dad with her.

What if dad got angry? What would happen then?

Would he, like Uncle Dominic, suddenly leave Angela too?

Her bright eyes began to blink rapidly.

She racked her brain, trying to figure out what to do next?

Should she try to flatter him?

When she spoke, her voice was soft and sweet. "Daddy, what are you doing here? You look so

handsome today."

Harrison walked over, coming to stand in front of the mother and daughter.

He reached out his long arm, taking Angela from Roxanne's arms.

Angela quickly wrapped her arms around Harrison's neck, "Daddy, you look so handsome today."

"Such a sweet talker." Harrison looked at his daughter with indulgence.

Had Dominic not let go, he wouldn't be able to see his daughter and wife now.

Roxanne might have taken Angela and followed Dominic to live in another city.

Harrison held Angela tighter.

When he looked at Roxanne, her fragile body bore a tragic beauty.

The tears in her eyes, her broken sorrow, struck Harrison's heart.

Harrison wanted to give himself a hard slap.

Had he not been such a fool, Roxanne wouldn't be so lost.

Taking one hand off Angela, he reached out to pull Roxanne's hand. "I heard what you just said."

"I didn't say anything."

Roxanne quickly pulled her hand back.

Avoiding his burning gaze, she fluttered her tear-filled lashes weakly.

"You must have heard wrong."

At the boarding gate.

Dominic handed his boarding pass to the flight attendant, then turned to look back.

In the direction he was looking, stood the woman he loved.

He wondered, with his departure, would his beloved realize her true feelings and embrace happiness

again?

Despite his many concerns and reluctance, he turned around and resolutely walked into the boarding

bridge.

Dominic wasn't going abroad for work this time.

He just wanted an excuse to leave Seraphim Haven, to leave Roxanne, and let her be happy.

He wondered if Angela could get used to his absence, and if Roxanne could handle raising a child

alone?

He forgot that there was Fiona, and another nanny to help with the child.

With them around, Roxanne wouldn't be overwhelmed.

His worries were unnecessary.

As he passed the boarding bridge and arrived at the cabin door, Dominic kept looking back.

A young woman, dressed in fashionable clothes, wearing sunglasses, and a headscarf, entered

Dominic's sight.

But he didn't notice.

He kept looking in the direction of the boarding gate.

It was only when the flight attendant urged him to board the plane that he finally got on.

In business class.

Dominic sat in the aisle seat.

As the plane began to taxi, a flight attendant came over to check on him and found that he hadn't

fastened his seat belt.

She bent over and said with a smile, "Sir, the plane is about to take off. Could you please fasten your

seat belt?"

Dominic was lost in his thoughts and didn't hear the flight attendant's kind reminder.

The flight attendant patiently reminded him again.

He still didn't respond.

The fashionable young woman sitting by the window waved at the flight attendant.

"You go ahead. I'll help him fasten his seat belt."

It wasn't until Dominic noticed the woman next to him fastening his seat belt that he snapped out of his

thoughts.

He shot the woman an unfriendly look. "What are you doing?"

The woman took off her sunglasses, smiled and said, "Dominic, long time no see!"

"Evelyn Miller?"

Looking at Evelyn, Dominic frowned.

"Can you not call me by my full name? I prefer you to call me Evelyn, or Eve."

Evelyn kept her lively smile, even though she was displeased.

Her smile was beautiful when she was happy.

But Dominic didn't spare her a second glance.

He averted his gaze coldly, "We're not close."

Evelyn's heart cooled.

The smile on her face froze.

Her lively and cheerful eyes gradually dimmed.

Suddenly sad, she said, "Dominic, you're doing this on purpose, aren’t you?"

Dominic didn't respond.

Evelyn didn't want to argue with him.

His cold treatment wasn't something new.

She had gotten used to it.

She muttered, "We haven't seen each other for more than two years. We finally meet by chance, can't

you be a little nicer?"

"Was it a coincidence?" Dominic turned his head, frowning, and asked.

Evelyn, "Of course!"

Dominic snorted, "I suppose Harrison told you my flight number, didn't he?"

He had given his flight number to Harrison.

Harrison, in turn, had instantly betrayed him and given the information to Evelyn.

Evelyn must have intentionally bought a ticket on the same flight, and switched to the seat beside him.

She was the richest woman in Seraphim Haven, he believed she could do it.

When Evelyn was exposed, she became unhappy.

"Dominic, can't you be less harsh on me? I haven't seen you for more than two years, I didn't dare to

bother you. Now that we finally meet, can't you just make me happy?"

Dominic didn't answer.

Evelyn didn't want to fight with him.

She sighed, "After not seeing each other for more than two years, we finally meet by chance. Can't you

be a little nicer?"

"Is it really by chance?" Dominic turned his head, frowning, and asked.

Evelyn, "Yes, of course!"

Dominic snorted, "I suppose it was Harrison who told you my flight number."

He had told Harrison his flight number.

And Harrison had promptly betrayed him and told Evelyn.

Evelyn must have intentionally bought a ticket for the same flight, and even intentionally changed to the

seat beside him.

She was the richest woman in Seraphim Haven, and he believed she had the ability to do so.

When Evelyn was exposed, she became unhappy.

"Dominic, can't you be a little less harsh with me? I haven't seen you for over two years, and I didn't

dare to bother you. Now that we finally meet, can't you just let me be happy?"

Dominic had no idea how she had survived these past couple of years.

The man she loved was now dating her former sister-in-law, a woman she once held in high esteem.

She had to comfort her desolate brother, Harrison, while also finding solace in solitude as she nursed

her emotional wounds.

She longed to see Dominic again, but she didn't dare.

Due to his relationship with her ex-sister-in-law, she didn't even dare to send him a text on WhatsApp.

Many times, she would open Dominic's WhatsApp profile.

Alone, she would sit and think, tears silently streaming down her face.

She would reassure herself that Dominic was in love with Roxanne, and that he would be happy with

her.

As long as Dominic was happy, that was all that mattered!

Sometimes, after gathering enough courage, she would dial his number.

But she would have to hang up in a frenzy of panic and heartache.

Dominic had no idea about any of this.

But she didn't hold it against him.

"Yes, I purposely bought a ticket on the same flight as you. I purposely followed you. You already know

how I feel," Evelyn admitted candidly.

In life, one must be bold.

To love someone, to climb a mountain, to chase a dream.

Dominic was the man she loved, the mountain she needed to climb, and the dream she was chasing.

"Dominic, now that you and my sister-in-law have parted ways, I won't give up on you anymore,"

Evelyn declared, making no attempt to hide her feelings.

Dominic didn't even glance at her, his voice as cold as ice, "I've told you, there's no future for us."

His icy tone made Evelyn's breath hitch in her throat.

It felt as if she had fallen into an ice pit.

She forcefully steadied herself on the seat, forcing back the tears that threatened to spill.

With a bitter smile, she softly said,

"Dominic, don't you see? We're two peas in a pod."

"The unrequited love you experienced with my sister-in-law, I've been living that for the past ten years."

"When will you finally give me a proper look?"
