The Windfalls of Love novel Chapter 115

Caleb whispered the last sentence into Nathaniel's ear, lowering his voice so that Roxanne couldn't hear.

She curiously eyed the potbellied middle-aged man.

Weird.

Why would Nathaniel's boss help her?

Nathaniel listened, his face full of disdain.

He glanced at Roxanne.

"She's just a poor girl from the countryside, no one cares for her. What kind of status could she possibly have?"

Nathaniel knew Roxanne's background best.

But what he didn't know was that Roxanne's husband was the boss of the Rodriguez Group.

Roxanne became his boss' wife.

"What status?" Caleb scoffed in his heart: If I spill the beans, you might get a heart attack.

But he couldn't tell.

Instead, Caleb was prepared to give Nathaniel a good look at what his boss's wife really looked like.

"No matter who she is, you shouldn't offend her." Mr. Caleb said as he snatched the car keys from Nathaniel's hand.

He hurried to move the car.

Then, he got out of the car and walked over to Roxanne.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Martinez, he was blocking your way."

Roxanne asked directly:

"Why would you help me? And how do you know my last name, do you know me?"

Caleb thought on his feet.

"We don't know each other. You have the same last name as Nathaniel, right? I heard him call you Roxanne, right?"

Roxanne nodded, puzzled.

She thought that this fat middle-aged man knew her already.

It turned out that he only learned her last name after hearing Nathaniel call her by her first name.

Caleb continued, "Our company is a big company and we won't tolerate bullying women. Ms. Martinez, you better get going, don't waste your time."

"Thank you." Roxanne said gratefully, "Your company has a good atmosphere, but I don't know why you would let such a jerk be the CFO."

As she said this, Roxanne glared at Nathaniel.

She continued, "This guy has a terrible personality. He doesn't even want to take care of his own father, he's irresponsible. You let him be CFO, he's bound to screw you over sooner or later."

"What are you talking about?" Nathaniel was angry, "Are you looking for trouble?"

"Shut up." Caleb held back the angry Nathaniel, "You think life is too comfortable? Do you know the headquarters is watching you, so is the boss of Rodriguez Group. You're out of luck."

Hearing about his future, Nathaniel immediately got nervous.

"Caleb, what are you talking about, can you clarify? Didn't you promise me three months ago that you would promote me to be the chief financial officer? Why am I in trouble?"

Roxanne said, "Serves you right!"

At this moment, Nathaniel only cared about his future and had no time to bother with Roxanne.

He chased after Caleb for an explanation.

Caleb saw Roxanne getting into her car and glared at Nathaniel again.

"Do you really not know?" Caleb asked.

"How would I know? I've been working hard all the time, what did I do wrong to not get promoted?" Nathaniel replied.

"Do you think it's just about not promoting you?"

"What else does the headquarters have in mind?"

"Anyway, you just prepare for the worst."

"Caleb, can you just tell me the reason?"

"I can't reveal too much, just wait for the CEO to announce it."

Watching Roxanne drive away, Caleb quickly returned to the building.

Nathaniel watched his back, feeling very uneasy.

How did he offend the CEO?

It's over.

What kind of bad outcome will he face?

Nathaniel's heart was filled with unease, and his face was somewhat sad.

Caleb returned to his office and saw Harrison looking at his bookshelf, he hurried over.

"Mr. Harrison."

Harrison casually picked up a copy of "Power and Prosperity", "You read this book?"

"When I have free time, I skim through it. The relationship between politics and market economy is complex, I can't understand some parts."

"You'll understand if you read it a few more times."

Harrison sat down and went straight to the point.

"I want to arrange a programmer's job in the IT department of Investor Complex."

"Mr. Harrison, you want to bring in a friend? Such a small matter, you just need to make a phone call, no need to come in person."

"Not a friend, it's me."

"What?"

"You mean, you want to work in the IT department of Investor Complex, and also as a programmer?"

"I have no choice, my wife might come to see me frequently."

"This..."

"Is there a problem?"

Caleb was at a loss for words.

In the past, Mr. Harrison hardly interfered with Investor Complex's business.

At most, he would make a phone call to inquire.

Now he's going to come every day, like a secret inspection.

Caleb felt the pressure.

Harrison continued, "Now, prepare a work pass and access card for me."

"Alright." Caleb said with a wry smile, "I'll do it right away."

Harrison stopped Caleb who was about to go work, "The fact that I'm working here, only you know, don't leak it."

"I understand."

"Go on, after you finish the work pass, find me a desk."

"What about Nathaniel... how should we deal with it?"

Nathaniel was Roxanne's half-brother.

As long as he had a little bit of affection for Roxanne, Harrison would consider their kinship and treat him well.

But Nathaniel really didn't know better.

He kept causing trouble for Roxanne.

Well, then he can't blame him for being ruthless.

"Let the headquarters send someone over to check his accounts, we'll talk after that."

The CFO was being audited.

It's over.

He's going to get fired.

Mr. Caleb was worried about Nathaniel.

...

Noon.

Just past eleven.

Roxanne, with her homemade creamy mushroom chicken soup, came to the Investor Complex.

Harrison was already in the lobby on the first floor.

He saw Roxanne standing under the blazing sun, holding an umbrella and a lunchbox through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Her slim and tall figure was a feast for Harrison's eyes.

He strode out, took her umbrella, "Why didn't you come in?"

"Didn't you say outsiders weren't allowed in? I could only wait here."

"You can come into the lobby."

He took Roxanne's hand, ready to take her into the lobby to enjoy the cool air conditioning.

"I'll stay out here." Roxanne stood still, furrowing her brows slightly, "Harrison, I have some bad news for you."

"What bad news?"

"Nathaniel is also working at Investor Complex, and he is the CFO. I'm worried that if he sees you here, he might cause trouble for you, even affecting your job. You worked so hard to find this stable job."

"So what if he's the CFO? Can he fire me?"

"You don't know. Today, after you went in, I ran into him. He blocked my car and wouldn't let me go, trying to force me to go to the hospital to take care of Sebastian."

"Fortunately, his boss is quite upright, he helped me move Nathaniel's car, and I was able to drive away."

"You said his boss is upright, if Nathaniel dares to mess with me, I'll report him."

Harrison pulled Roxanne inside.

He noticed that she hadn't eaten yet, so he took her to the company's cafeteria.
