The Windfalls of Love novel Chapter 114

Roxanne eyed Harrison, her gaze serious to match his own solemn expression, but she couldn't help but put on a teasing tone.

She walked around him, examining him closely.

"You look young, handsome, very charismatic, just like what a top billionaire of Seraphim Haven should be. In novels, the image of a CEO is usually someone young, tall, and handsome just like you. You fit perfectly into the stereotype of a CEO in novels."

She took another look around him, then stopped in front of him, straightened his suit, and gave a small smile. "But in reality, billionaires are not as handsome as you, and they are usually much older. Look at Elon Musk, then Jeff Bezos. They are either not very handsome or old."

Harrison stood there, his back still as straight as a pole.

"Are there no young and handsome billionaires like me in reality?"

Without a second thought, Roxanne replied with a laugh.

"If there are, show me one. Plus, Harrison, if you were the top billionaire of Seraphim Haven, wouldn't I be a tycoon's wife?"

Harrison frowned, seemingly a bit helpless.

Why wouldn't she believe him?

He looked at Roxanne seriously, "What if you really are a tycoon's wife?"

Roxanne pretended to think seriously, "Then I'll have to think about it. If I really married the top billionaire of Seraphim Haven and become a tycoon's wife, I would definitely quit my job and stop working. I would spend my days shopping and eating good food with the black card my rich husband gave me, not having to do anything or worry about anything."

Hearing her say this, Harrison's tense back finally relaxed a bit.

He started to say, "I also think you don't need to work so hard, you could stay at home..."

Before he could finish, Roxanne patted his arm and said firmly,

"Alright, stop dreaming. If you were really the top billionaire of Seraphim Haven, would you marry an ordinary woman like me?"

"Thinking about becoming the top billionaire of Seraphim Haven is absurd. It's something that's impossible to happen, why even consider it?"

"Let's head to the airport, we can't miss our flight."

Seeing that he was still standing there, Roxanne went over to grab the suitcase and handed it to him.

"Take the suitcase, let's get a taxi fast."

She picked up her bag and walked ahead.

As she walked, she expressed her thoughts.

"I'd rather work hard to earn money than daydream about becoming a tycoon's wife. What's better than earning your own money and feeling grounded?"

Watching her thin figure, Harrison frowned.

He was really anxious now.

He was usually a smart and decisive person, why would he become so anxious in front of Roxanne?

He was truly afraid of losing her, so he didn't dare to tell her the truth.

Dragging the suitcase, he quickened his pace to catch up with Roxanne, took her bag and hung it on the suitcase, then held Roxanne's hand.

Her warm palm was clearly in his, tightly held by him.

Yet he felt like she could leave at any moment.

He held on tightly, and Roxanne glanced at him.

"Harrison, why are you holding me so tightly, are you afraid I'll leave you?"

"I am indeed worried you'll leave me."

"Don't worry, I plan to stay with you, I won't leave."

...

Three hours later, the plane landed smoothly in Seraphim Haven.

Once off the plane, Roxanne immediately took off her coat.

Warmville was in autumn.

But Seraphim Haven was still experiencing high temperatures.

Life became busy again.

These days, Roxanne encountered some trouble.

Her half-brother Nathaniel was constantly harassing her.

Roxanne had already blocked and deleted Nathaniel's phone number and social media accounts.

But Nathaniel kept pestering her by changing his number.

One early morning, just as Roxanne was getting in the car to take Harrison to the subway station, she received a call from Nathaniel.

"Roxanne, is your heart made of stone?"

"Our father is in the hospital, unable to take care of himself. You, as his daughter, don't contribute money, don't put in efforts, and don't even pay him a visit, are you dead?"

"He should have gotten rid of you, a cold-blooded person, long ago."

His scolding was loud.

Roxanne's eardrums were almost ruptured.

She moved the phone away to protect her ears.

Nathaniel's scolding continued on the phone...

When he was done, Roxanne asked angrily, "Nathaniel, are you done?"

"No, you are a selfish and ungrateful person, you..."

"Even if you're not done, shut up."

Roxanne was angry!

Did he think she was easy to bully because she didn't lose her temper?

"Nathaniel, did you lick the toilet bowl this morning, your mouth is so smelly?"

"Or did you just crawl out of a sewer, I can even smell your stench through the phone."

"You're a big man with such a foul mouth, only knowing how to insult people, what kind of ability is that? If you have the guts, come out and we'll have an open confrontation."

Next time she sees Nathaniel, she's going to beat him up so bad that he'll know how tough she is.

Only then will he know to behave.

After hanging up the phone, Roxanne's face was still filled with anger.

Harrison, who was sitting in the passenger seat, saw her in a bad mood and rubbed her head.

"What's wrong, who made you so angry?"

Roxanne tried her best to control her mood and forced herself to calm down, "It's nothing, let's get you to the subway station."

She couldn't let that jerk Nathaniel ruin Harrison's good mood in the morning.

She drove out of the residential parking lot.

She had gotten very familiar with this 'lottery-won' Porsche.

Soon, they arrived at the subway station.

Harrison was about to get out of the car, but seeing that they still had some time, Roxanne held onto his arm.

"Harrison, we've been married for quite a while now, and yet I still don't know where your company is located. Since we've got time, why don't you ditch the subway today and I'll drive you to your office?"

Harrison frowned, how was he supposed to answer this?

He couldn't take her to the headquarters of the Rodriguez Group.

The Rodriguez Group owned five management companies, nine tier-one investment companies, and seventeen listed companies.

The business empire spanned real estate, jewelry, hotels, internet, healthcare, investment banking, and more.

Some of the companies were located in Seraphim Haven, while others were elsewhere. The nearest one to Roxanne's new company was located in Investor Complex on Southside Street. Harrison gave Roxanne the address.

Roxanne happily exclaimed, "Harrison, your office is so close to mine! I'll drive you there!"

About half an hour later, Roxanne gently parked her Porsche in the Investor Complex's ground parking lot.

She got out of the car and looked at the building, saying, "Oh my god, Harrison, your company building looks so luxurious. It's quite something."

Harrison also got out of the car and stood next to her. "It's alright," he said nonchalantly.

Roxanne asked, "How many floors does this building have?"

Harrison answered, "168."

Roxanne exclaimed, "What a luxurious office building!"

Her and Chloe's new company was located on the ground floor of a residential building by the roadside, which didn't look fancy. She yearned for such an upscale corporate environment.

Roxanne asked, "Harrison, on which floor do you work? Can I visit your company?"

Harrison hesitated, Roxanne added, "I'm making grilled chicken and mushroom soup for lunch, I'd like to deliver it to you."

Of course, Harrison wanted to taste Roxanne's homemade grilled chicken and mushroom soup.

He said, "You can bring it at lunch, I'll come downstairs to get it. Our company's strict, outsiders can't come in."

Roxanne said, "Alright, I'll bring the lunch to the front door at noon."

Harrison asked, "What time will you come? I'll wait for you downstairs."

Roxanne asked, "What time do you finish work?"

Harrison said, "Half past eleven in the morning."

Roxanne said, "Then I'll come at half past eleven, I don't have much to do today, you should head into work now."

Harrison ruffled Roxanne's hair, reminded her to drive carefully, and then he walked toward the main entrance of Investor Complex.

Harrison was right, Investor Complex did not allow outsiders to enter. Employees could swipe their cards to get inside, but as a non-employee without an appointment, he was naturally stopped.
