The Windfalls of Love novel Chapter 138

Roxanne and Harrison drove back to Seraphim Haven from Amberfield.

Meanwhile, Dominic was driving another car with Chloe and her daughter in tow.

He dropped Chloe and her daughter off at the underground parking lot of their apartment building.

Throughout the trip, Dominic barely said a word.

After they got out of the car, Chloe, holding her sleeping daughter, looked at Dominic with sympathy.

"Feeling a bit bummed out?" She asked.

"What do you mean?" Dominic responded calmly.

"Seeing Harrison and Roxanne so lovey-dovey has got you feeling a bit out of sorts, hasn't it?" Chloe continued.

Dominic gave a wry smile but didn't respond.

Chloe frowned in confusion, "Dominic, I've always had a hunch that you had a reason for leaving Roxanne back in the day. Can you tell me what really drove you away?"

"That's water under the bridge; let's not bring it up." Dominic dodged the question, "You better take your girl upstairs."

Chloe hesitated for a moment, then nodded. The matter between Dominic and Roxanne was indeed in the past. She decided to let it go and didn't pester him anymore.

Now that Roxanne was happy, she decided that this was the best outcome.

After walking a bit with her daughter in her arms, Chloe turned back to Dominic, "Dominic!"

Dominic had just closed the car door and looked up at her, "What's up?"

"Happy birthday!" Chloe said with a smile.

Dominic was stunned.

Did Chloe just remember his birthday?

"Thanks!" Dominic replied, feeling a bit moved.

Seven years ago, Roxanne celebrated every birthday with him.

She would prepare everything meticulously.

But from now on, he probably wouldn't be getting any birthday wishes from Roxanne anymore.

Chloe comforted him, "Dominic, like you said, let bygones be bygones."

Dominic nodded and waved at her, "You better scoot upstairs; your daughter's had a scare these past few days; you need to comfort her and stay by her side."

...

Harrison parked the car and turned off the engine.

Roxanne was about to open the car door and get out, but Harrison grabbed her left wrist.

"Roxanne!"

She took her right hand off the door handle and placed it over the hand Harrison had on her wrist, gently covering it.

The overlay of their palms made her feel the warmth of Harrison’s hand and the prominent joints of his fingers.

"What's up?" Roxanne asked him sweetly.

They locked eyes.

Harrison's face was ruggedly handsome with a manly charm; his deep-colored suit contrasted with his white shirt that had two buttons undone.

His shirt was slightly open, revealing his neck.

Harrison's Adam's apple was very sexy. A signature feature of his that was incredibly captivating.

His Adam's apple bobbed lightly, then he bent down and kissed Roxanne.

He had been missing her terribly these past few days.

His kissing technique was getting better and better, making her heart flutter.

His tongue slipped into Roxanne's mouth, exploring for a while.

It wasn't until Roxanne's tongue felt a little numb that he lifted his head.

His nose gently brushed against Roxanne's cheek, "Roxanne, I've missed you so much."

Roxanne smiled.

His deep eyes were filled with adoration and tenderness.

His hand slid into her clothes, wrapping around her back, ready to unbutton her, but she suddenly grabbed his hand.

"Harrison, we're in the underground parking lot; there's a camera over there. Let's go home!"

After planting a deep kiss on her forehead, Harrison got out of the car and strode over to the passenger side.

He opened the passenger door and scooped her up.

"Harrison, put me down." Roxanne couldn't help but laugh, "What if the neighbors see us?"

"What's there to be afraid of?"

"Put me down."

"No, we're married."

"Even married couples can't be this affectionate in public."

Luckily, they didn't run into any neighbors on their way from the underground parking lot to the elevator, then to their front door.

However, just as they were about to enter their home, they heard someone by the elevator say, "These young folks are so passionate in their love that they can't even wait to get inside before they start making out."

Harrison kicked the door shut.

Roxanne, with her arms wrapped around his neck, laughed, "Did you hear what they said? You're too intense."

"There's more where that came from." Harrison kicked off his shoes, carrying her into the bedroom.

He gently put her on the bed, knelt down, and took off her shoes.

As he got up, he pressed himself against her as his hand explored the area under her clothes.

His kisses landed on her fair neck.

"I haven't taken a shower yet!"

"Then let's go to the bathroom."

Harrison's kisses stopped at her ear, "It's not even dark yet; are you sure you want to?"

If they waited until nightfall, he would be even more wild.

While holding her sweet and soft body, he walked into the bathroom.

The shower sprinkled a gentle rain as Harrison held Roxanne tight.

Amid the sound of running water, Roxanne's voice could be heard fluctuating.

After a long while, Harrison helped her wash her body once more, then carried her back to bed to rest.

Roxanne was very tired, and she just wanted to sleep. When she woke up, it was already dark outside.

Just as she opened her eyes, Harrison’s kisses fell on her face again.

Roxanne was caught off guard, finding Harrison more and more enchanting. His fingers stroked her smooth waist, making it impossible for her to sleep any longer.

Her body felt like it was floating, as if she were about to fly into the sky.

She couldn’t help but let out some noises that she herself found a bit embarrassing.

The room was dark, and the voice-activated light in the house flickered on and off due to the sounds from the room.

Forty minutes later, Roxanne nudged Harrison, "Honey, can you get up for a bit?"

"Hmm?" Harrison opened his eyes, clearly dissatisfied.

Roxanne gave a cheeky smile, "Get up and sit at the head of the bed; I'll be on top."

Harrison let out a clearly amused laugh.

Then he pinched her nose, "You want to take the lead today?"

"You've been tired for so long; it's my turn to do the heavy lifting."

Harrison respected her, got up, and sat on the edge of the bed.

Under the dim light, the muscles of his abdomen were distinct and firm.

Roxanne rolled over and straddled him, and their silhouettes were reflected in the bright window.

Harrison held onto her slender waist tightly.

At the other end of the night, Dominic was driving back from an errand.

All the way, he was pondering the same question.

Did Roxanne, who was already married, still remember his birthday?

Did she really forget him completely?

What was she doing on this particular day?

When Dominic returned to Tranquil Bliss Villa and saw the light in front of the villa, he felt a sense of desolation.

He scoffed at himself.

Now that Roxanne was married, what did it matter what she was doing at this moment?

But he couldn't help but think about it.

He opened the door and stepped in.
