The Windfalls of Love novel Chapter 122

Harrison's coolness really got to Roxanne.

Even though he was on the verge of losing his job, he was still comforting Roxanne with optimism.

Was that to stop her from worrying?

If her husband was a heartless man like Oliver, not to mention comforting her, it would be enough if he didn't complain about her.

She really married a responsible good man.

She clutched Harrison's hand and said,

"Harrison, I'm truly sorry. I might have cost you your job and yet you're still comforting me."

"I won't get fired."

Harrison gently ruffled her hair,

"Why don't you believe me?"

"Nathaniel is your company's CFO. His word could cost you your job." Roxanne said.

How could she not worry?

Harrison was about to close the car door and let her go about her business, but seeing her so worried, he couldn't help but stop at the door, bend down to look at her, and ruffle her hair again.

"I heard Mr. Caleb on the phone with our boss yesterday, they're planning to fire Nathaniel. He might be out today." Harrison said.

"Really?" Roxanne asked.

"Do you think I would lie to you?"

He gently stroked her hair again, as if comforting her.

Sure enough, Roxanne felt the warmth of his hand.

Her wrinkled eyebrows involuntarily relaxed.

She let out a sigh of relief, but found something odd.

"Harrison, Mr. Caleb must be very busy. How did you happen to overhear his call with the boss?" Roxanne asked.

"It was a coincidence. We were in the elevator together yesterday. As soon as we got out of the elevator, Mr. Caleb received a call from the boss."

Every time he lied, Harrison was so calm.

He was used to lying.

Roxanne finally believed him.

"Nathaniel deserves to be let go, but why is he getting fired?"

"Didn't I tell you already? Nathaniel offended our boss' wife. Our boss spoils his wife. He can't stand her being wronged." Harrison said.

"He really loves his wife." Roxanne said.

"Yes."

Harrison smiled, looking a bit self-satisfied, but Roxanne didn't notice.

She believed him and started the engine, "Alright, I’m off to the office. You should head up too."

Outside the car, Nathaniel was eavesdropping on their conversation, but he seemed to have not heard clearly.

After Roxanne's red Porsche left, Nathaniel approached Harrison.

"Hey, what did you say? You heard Caleb and the boss say they're going to fire me?"

This really scared Nathaniel.

But in front of Harrison, he was acting all high and mighty.

Harrison ignored him and walked away.

Harrison didn’t need to lift a finger against him.

But Nathaniel was pestering him like a fly. He grabbed his arm and yelled,

"I'm talking to you! Did you hear me?"

Harrison glanced down at Nathaniel's hand gripping his suit sleeve.

His gaze was cold as ice.

Nathaniel was a little scared, so he involuntarily loosened his grip, but still held on tightly.

Harrison grabbed Nathaniel's hand and applied a little pressure, who immediately cried out in pain.

Nathaniel felt like his bones were being crushed by Harrison.

"Ah, ah! Hurts, it hurts!” Nathaniel shouted out.

That hurt?

Harrison only used a little bit of force.

He warned coldly,

"You're not qualified to talk to me."

After saying that, he let go, turned around and walked away.

His tall figure scared Nathaniel.

He had a kind of imperial majesty and deterrent power.

This was really strange.

He was just an ordinary IT programmer.

How could he have such a powerful deterrent?

Nathaniel was not satisfied.

He couldn't even deal with an ordinary programmer?

Feeling humiliated, Nathaniel decided to teach Harrison a lesson. He had completely forgotten about the Rodriguez Group's boss wanting to deal with him.

Half an hour later, Nathaniel arrived at the IT department.

He found Mr. Lanny from IT.

Mr. Lanny was a middle-aged man with glasses and a bit of baldness. He led a team for project development year-round.

When he saw the CFO come into his office, he immediately greeted him politely,

"Mr. Martinez, what brings you to our IT department today?"

Nathaniel closed the door tight, locked it, and directly told Mr. Lanny his purpose.

Hearing Nathaniel's words, Mr. Lanny frowned,

"Mr. Martinez, this is not easy to do."

"It's just firing a programmer. I've already asked HR. Harrison just started, he's still on probation, and he didn't sign a formal contract. We can fire him on the grounds that he didn't perform well during the probation period." Nathaniel said.

"He is indeed on probation, but he seems to have a strong background, so I dare not offend him." Mr. Lanny said.

"What kind of background does he have?" Nathaniel asked.

"I'm not sure, but I feel his background is very strong." Mr. Lanny answered.

"To be honest with you. This Harrison is my half-sister's husband. They both came from the countryside." Nathaniel said.

"Since he's your brother-in-law, why are you targeting him?" Mr. Lanny was confused.

"This is our personal dispute." Nathaniel said.

"Mr. Martinez, I really can't help you. Because Mr. Caleb personally told me to treat Harrison like a god. Mr. Caleb said, I can't assign him work, just let him play in the office every day, but his salary should be paid as usual." Mr. Lanny said.

"Is that really the case?" Nathaniel asked.

"I guess, this Harrison must be sent by headquarters. His status must be higher than Mr. Caleb's." Mr. Lanny said.

"Impossible! He's a bankrupt small businessman. How could he be related to the headquarters?" Nathaniel said.

"Why would I lie to you? This came straight from Mr. Caleb's mouth. Every time Mr. Caleb sees him, he's all respect. How could it possibly be fake?" Mr. Lanny said.

Nathaniel asked, "How is this even possible?"

"Mr. Martinez, if you asked me to fire anyone else, I wouldn't hesitate for a second. But as for Harrison, I wouldn't dare cross him." Mr. Lanny said.

Disappointed, Nathaniel had no choice but to leave.

But he wasn't ready to give up.

He did a round in the IT department and saw Harrison, right by the floor-to-ceiling window.

There he was, chilling at his desk, legs up, fast asleep.

His sleeping pose was super casual, like he was snoozing at home, totally disregarding that he was in the office.

Nathaniel marched over, hollering, "Harrison, you think this is your house or something? Is this your bedroom? Get your ass up!"

Such noise!

Harrison heard Nathaniel's voice, but he only slightly furrowed his brow, not moving an inch.

He still maintained his casual pose, legs up on the desk.

This made Nathaniel even more pissed, "Harrison, didn't you hear me talking to you?"

Furious, he reached out to push Harrison's chair.

But the next moment, another firm arm stopped him.

Nathaniel turned around.
