The Windfalls of Love novel Chapter 126

Harrison frowned at the remark.

Alexander said the company's hacker problem this time was a tough nut to crack.

Indeed.

Even though Harrison was the big cheese of the Rodriguez Group, a businessman, he'd studied computer science during his time studying abroad.

He was also a top-notch hacker.

But he'd never come up against someone like this before, someone who could breach his network.

This was no small potatoes!

Soon, Harrison's phone buzzed with a message. It was a meeting place and time from the other side.

Meanwhile.

At Tranquil Bliss Villa in the Southside Neighborhood,

Dominic had successfully hacked into the city's marriage registration system.

On the screen was the wedding registration photo of Roxanne and Harrison.

Their faces side by side in the system photo was a real eyesore.

The husband was a handsome devil, with rugged features and eyes as sharp and wise as a hawk, radiating a powerful aura.

You could tell he was a big shot just by looking at him.

And the wife was strikingly beautiful, radiating an air of effortless elegance.

Every time Dominic woke up from a dream in the wee hours, this beautiful face would always appear in his dreams.

But the dream was never as clear as reality.

Maybe it was because he hadn't seen her for so long, and even the deepest memories could become blurry.

But Dominic would never forget. His longing only grew stronger.

If Roxanne really did marry a responsible, honest, family-oriented man like Chloe said, Dominic would wish them well.

But he confirmed again that the man by Roxanne's side was Harrison Rodriguez, the wealthiest man in Seraphim Haven he'd recently come into contact with. n

He was the big boss behind the Rodriguez Group, with a net worth in the billions.

His business empire spanned real estate, jewelry, hotels, the internet, healthcare, and finance, with five major management companies, nine primary investment companies, and seventeen listed companies under his belt.

How could such a filthy rich man marry a plain Jane like Roxanne?

They were like chalk and cheese.

Why on earth would Harrison marry Roxanne?

Dominic was hell-bent on not believing that they got together out of love.

Because Roxanne and Harrison had no connection whatsoever, no chance of any interaction or any chance for romance.

Could it be that Roxanne had some kind of use to this filthy rich man?

Otherwise, why would the wealthiest man in Seraphim Haven marry a woman with no money, no power, no background like her?

If his guess was correct, Dominic wouldn't let Harrison get away with it.

To figure out why Harrison married Roxanne, Dominic dug up every piece of information about Harrison's family, but he couldn't find a single loophole.

This only made Dominic more puzzled.

That night, Dominic spent the whole night at Tranquil Bliss Villa analyzing everything.

Harrison also spent the whole night at East Adjacent Estates thinking.

The next morning at ten o'clock, when the two men met at the agreed-upon clubhouse, they both looked worn out.

But both of them were dressed to the nines.

Even though Harrison was the wealthiest man in Seraphim Haven, the boss of the Rodriguez Group, he didn't show any overly dominant attitude.

He didn't need to use a dominant attitude to overpower anyone.

When he walked into the coffee shop, he was calm and composed, radiating a natural aura, his wise eyes commanding respect at first sight.

Then, he calmly sat down across from Dominic.

Harrison said,

"It's an honor to have such a talented person like Y-Spectre among us."

Dominic initially wanted to stand up to greet him, but since Harrison had already sat down, Dominic didn't want to beat around the bush.

He handed Harrison the menu, saying, "Let's skip the pleasantries.

Mr. Rodriguez, you don't have to worry about your company's core database being attacked. I've paid EastTech Consortium double the penalty and terminated the contract. No one but me can hack your 6G-Technology."

Harrison furrowed his brows.

He'd come to meet Y-Spectre today in hopes of luring him away with a higher offer.

But he'd terminated his contract with EastTech Consortium already?

What was he after?

People usually go after fame or fortune, but Harrison had a feeling that Y-Spectre wasn't after either.

Harrison asked straight up, "What do you want?"

Dominic slid the coffee cup the waiter had just brought over to Harrison and smiled faintly,

"I just want to ask Mr. Rodriguez one question."

"Go ahead." Harrison said.

"Mr. Rodriguez, you're the wealthiest man in Seraphim Haven, a billionaire, with a massive business empire. Why would a super-rich man like you marry a common woman from the bottom rungs of society?" Dominic asked.

Harrison didn't answer.

The Y-Spectre in front of him was becoming even more of a mystery.

How did he know so much about his marriage?

Dominic asked again, "What value does Roxanne hold for Mr. Rodriguez? What is your purpose in getting close to her?"

"Do you know my wife?" Harrison asked.

Knew her? That was an understatement!

To Dominic, Roxanne was once his fiancée.

If it weren't for a certain accident, he and Roxanne might even have kids by now.

Every time he brought up the topic, it felt like a knife was twisting in his heart.

Dominic's body slumped a little as he sat at the table.

It seemed like something had collapsed in his eyes.

Harrison's sharp gaze caught Dominic's fleeting emotion, "Did you ever like Roxanne?"

Dominic smiled, "Sir, you just need to answer my question. What does Roxanne mean to you?"

"What if I said that Roxanne and I came together because of fate, would you believe it?" Harrison said.

After a moment of thought, Dominic frowned, skeptical,

"The difference in your social status is vast, there's no way you guys could have met."

"I also find fate magical, but I did marry a woman whose life was completely different from mine, and she's a good woman." Harrison said.

"Was it really fate that brought you two together?" Dominic asked.

"You can choose not to believe me." Harrison said.

"I hope what you said is true, if I find out you have any intention of using Roxanne, I'll make you pay." Dominic said.

"I believe you can do it. But I hope that day never comes." Harrison said.

"I hope so too." Dominic said.

The coffee had gone cold.

Harrison didn't drink it.

Dominic asked the waiter to pour out the coffee in the cup and serve two fresh ones.

The light roasting flavor of the sun-dried coffee beans was light and elegant, drifting past Dominic, reflecting his dignified face.

Harrison was certain, he was different from those vicious hackers.

He asked, "Is it worth it to offend foreign financial groups for a woman, and pay double the breach of contract penalty?"

Dominic poured the newly served coffee into a small cup and handed it to him, counter-questioning,

"Is it worth it to marry a woman from the bottom of society, Mr. Harrison?"

"Roxanne doesn't know my real identity yet Please keep it a secret for me." Harrison dodged the question.

Dominic frowned, "You can't even be honest about your identity, I doubt your intentions towards Roxanne."

"When the time is right, I'll be honest with Anne." Harrison said.

Anne!

Such an intimate address made Dominic's heart ache a bit.

Harrison picked up the cup and took a sip, "Good coffee beans."

He put down the cup and said, "No matter what position Roxanne holds in your heart, she is mine now. No one can take her away from me."

"Don't worry." Dominic gave a bitter smile, "I won't compete with you."

If he really wanted to compete, he wouldn't have hurt her like that seven years ago.

He wouldn't have ruthlessly left her when they were about to get married.

Dominic wrote a phone number on a piece of paper and handed it to Harrison, "This is my phone number, and my real name."

For years, he had been known as "Y-Spectre".

No one knew his real name except for those who knew him well.

He told Harrison his real name because Harrison was Roxanne's husband.

When he got up to leave, Dominic glanced at Harrison, "If you need my help, feel free to call me. I hope you can treat Roxanne well."

Harrison glanced at the phone number and name on the paper, and when he looked up, Dominic had already left the box.

He was sure that this man called Dominic must have feelings for Roxanne.

Because he had feelings, he didn't continue to attack Harrison's 6G-Technology.

Suddenly, a powerful and upright competitor appeared. Harrison felt jealous.

He didn't know what kind of past Dominic and Roxanne had.

He didn't leave the box immediately, but called Chloe.
