The Windfalls of Love novel Chapter 124

When Roxanne heard these sweet words, she stopped in the middle of unbuckling Harrison's belt.

She raised her hand, wrapping it tightly around his neck.

Then, with a face full of joy and tenderness, she gently rubbed her cheek against his.

In the morning, Harrison had just shaved.

But he was so full of life that when she rubbed her cheek against his sharp jawline, she still felt a slight prickliness.

This prickliness was full of masculine charm.

Roxanne couldn't help but rub her cheek against his a few more times.

She really liked this strong masculine scent that Harrison had.

"Don't rub."

Harrison held her face in one hand.

He frowned, speaking in a serious tone,

"If you keep rubbing, I really won't be able to control myself."

But Roxanne still wanted to rub.

Her little head moved in his big hands, trying to rub against him again.

But Harrison held her tighter.

As a result, her face was somewhat deformed, looking like a swollen bun.

So cute.

When they first met, she was straightforward, refreshing, and full of vitality.

He didn't expect her to have such a cute side.

Harrison gave her a smile, still holding her face in his hands.

Such a calm and composed man, when he smiled, it was like a spring breeze brushing past, so handsome.

"Harrison."

Roxanne's mouth was a bit distorted due to the pressure, her voice naturally somewhat muffled.

"Uh, let me go, you're distorting my face." Roxanne complained.

"Do you still want to rub?" Harrison didn't let go.

Roxanne laughed and said, "You're my man, I'll rub if I want to."

He didn't let go of her face, so she took the initiative, leaning in to kiss his slightly pursed lips.

Then, with a mischievous smile, she left him.

"I'm going to take a bath now. Since you don't want to bathe with me, I'll go and hog the bathtub first."

Harrison chuckled wryly behind her. He actually wanted to bathe with her too.

But he was afraid that once they bathed together, he wouldn't be able to control himself and might hurt her.

After all, he had been repressing himself for 32 years.

Even though they had been together for the past two days, his primal desire had not been relieved.

How could her petite body bear that?

She still didn't quite understand men. All men had a wild side.

But in front of Roxanne, he couldn't show his wild side. He wanted to slowly enjoy life with her.

In the bathroom, Roxanne was filling the bathtub with warm water.

These past two days, probably due to their intense sexual activities, her body was incredibly sore.

She really wanted to soak in a bath to relax.

Actually, when she first bought the house, it wasn't decorated like this. The model bathroom wasn't this big and couldn't fit a bathtub.

But she didn't know if it was the generosity of the developer, who not only expanded the size of her bathroom but also gave her a whole new decoration.

Maybe because she was in a good mood, Roxanne tested the water temperature, feeling the ripples on the surface of the water seemed to be dancing.

When the water was full, she lay in the bathtub, happily soaking.

At this time, her phone outside the bathroom rang.

Harrison brought the phone into the bathroom for her, lightly knocking on the glass door.

"Roxanne, there's a call." Harrison said.

"Who is it?" Roxanne asked, "If it's not important, we can ignore it for now."

"It's Chloe." Harrison said.

Roxanne always prioritized Chloe's calls.

Chloe was a single mother, raising two kids, life was quite tough.

Roxanne was worried about any emergencies, hurriedly said, "Don't hang up, give me the phone."

Harrison pushed open the glass door.

The first thing he saw was Roxanne hurriedly reaching out from the water to grab her phone.

It was a slender, elegant hand.

Perhaps it was because Harrison had just tasted the marrow last night.

Now, looking at her slender arm, he also found it full of vitality, very enticing.

Harrison felt a surge of impulse, but he had to restrain himself.

Looking at Roxanne soaking in the water, she seemed very calm, but all he could think of was the warmth and sweetness of her body.

It was truly torturous.

Roxanne quickly picked up Chloe's call.

Because there was a small table next to the bathtub, she put the phone on it, turning on the speaker mode.

From the other end of the phone, came Chloe's gentle voice,

"Anne, you haven't gone to bed yet?"

"No, I'm taking a bath." Roxanne said.

"With Harrison?" Chloe asked.

"No, just by myself." Roxanne said.

Chloe didn't know that Harrison and Roxanne were already sleeping together.

She thought Harrison wasn't with Roxanne, so she asked without any hesitation,

"Anne, guess who I just saw?"

"Who you saw, you're making it sound so mysterious." Roxanne said.

"Guess, anyway you guys haven't seen each other for a long time, I guess you've forgotten what this person looks like." Chloe said.

"It's not my mom, is it?"

Roxanne appeared to be tolerant about everything, but every time she thought of her mother who abandoned her when she was four to remarry and leave, her heart ached like it was being pricked by a needle.

Her smile also stiffened a bit.

Chloe said, "Not your mom, it's Dominic. He seems to have bought a villa in my neighborhood."

The name Dominic made Roxanne's eyes dim slightly, and her eyebrows furrowed.

Chloe continued, "Dominic took the initiative to greet me. He seems to know that you're married now, and he asked me how your husband treats you. From his tone, it seems like he's really regretful about you."

Ha, regretful?

If he was really regretful, he wouldn't have fallen in love with a rich girl all of a sudden seven years ago, when he and Roxanne were already discussing marriage.

To be honest, Dominic was a man who relied on women to rise to the top.

Roxanne didn't miss a man like this at all.

It was just that three years of affection now seemed like a waste.

She had just wasted three years of her youth.

"Chloe, I'm not interested in what he's up to. If he wants to know about me, don't tell him." Roxanne said.

"I know, I also hope you and Harrison will be happy." Chloe said.

Harrison hadn't left even after Roxanne hung up the phone.

Roxanne knew he'd heard everything.

Taking the initiative to explain, she said, "Dominic is my ex. You might remember me mentioning him before. He once tried to kiss me, but I dodged him."

"Hmm." Harrison wanted to ask her who Dominic was.

Having explained, she calmed his nerves a bit.

He asked, "Are you still in pain? Would a bath help?"

"Still hurts." Roxanne cringed, "I just checked. It's a bit swollen."

"I'm sorry."

Harrison sat by the tub, gently kissing Roxanne's face, "I was too reckless yesterday."

"It's okay." Roxanne wrapped her arms around his neck, "You've been holding back for so many years. If you don't let loose a bit, you'll break down."

Their eyes met and locked, intertwining.

Even the air was sweet.

Roxanne playfully caressed his Adam's apple.
