The Windfalls of Love novel Chapter 102

In the evening, Roxanne came home and told Harrison about what went down at the Pearl Building. They chatted while having dinner.

Harrison seemed indifferent, feigning ignorance about the whole thing. "Seriously?"

Roxanne was chowing down as she spoke.

"Harrison, don't you find it odd?"

"The security guard was shooing us away, looking down on us, and mocking us. And then, the manager was suddenly all nice and sweet. have no clue what they're up to."

In front of Harrison, Roxanne never pretended to be ladylike, always eating in big bites. And she was really hungry.

Harrison looked at her with a mouth full of food, cheeks puffed, chatting with him while chewing. She seemed like a greedy little guinea pig.

She was real, unlike those socialite women who put on airs in front of him. Harrison loved watching her eat, "So, did you finally get your money back?"

Roxanne finished one plate of food, grabbed another, and continued, "Speaking of which, that part was even more infuriating."

"What happened?" Harrison took a bite, "Tell me, maybe I can help."

Roxanne waved him off, indicating she didn't need help. "Such a jerk, he needs to be dealt with strictly, but I still need to keep up the niceties until I get my money back."

She told Harrison about all of Finn's debt dodging schemes over the years. In this society, the debtors were the big shots while the creditors had to act humble.

Then Roxanne's phone that was placed on the table rang. The caller ID showed it was Finn. What a coincidence.

Roxanne was utterly sick of Finn. She frowned and put him on speakerphone in front of Harrison.

"Finn!"

"Roxanne, are you free tomorrow?"

What new trick was he up to now? Roxanne's frown deepened.

"I was thinking of playing golf tomorrow. Can you come with me?"

"Finn..."

"Don't reject me just yet. Think it over. If you accompany me and I get in a good mood, I might pay you back."

Oh god! Pay her back? He was clearly messing with her.

Roxanne had been harassed by this ugly Finn before, but she never let him get his way.

Not only did Finn owe Roxanne money, he also wanted her. Her long legs were all he could think about. The more he couldn't have her, the more he yearned for her.

Of course, Roxanne was well aware of his intentions. She was nauseated. But she had to keep up appearances with Finn until she got her money back.

She had already figured out how to deal with Finn during the day. She just hadn't seen him yet.

Suppressing her disgust, she replied, "Alright, Finn, but I don't know how to play golf. I can only help you pick up balls."

"That's okay," Finn laughed, "I can teach you." This way, he could take advantage of the situation while teaching her. Finn had it all planned out.

Roxanne set a time and place with Finn, "Finn, it's a date then."

"Great!" Finn's voice was full of sickening anticipation.

After hanging up, Roxanne felt extremely uncomfortable.

Harrison looked serious. "Finn doesn't just want you to play golf; he clearly wants to take advantage of you. No, I'm going with you tomorrow."

"You need to work. Stop taking leaves because of me. Didn't you say your company is about to promote you? Don't ruin that because of me."

"I can't stand the thought of you meeting that old man alone."
