The Windfalls of Love novel Chapter 232

Watching the slightly overweight older man walk away, Roxanne breathed a sigh of relief.

They finally sorted this mess out! Chloe was practically jumping for joy.

She hugged Roxanne, "Roxanne, you were amazing. Can we really get our goods back and avoid the fine?"

"If that video gets out, Mr. Dino’s reputation will be in hot water. He won't risk his career,” Roxanne said with a determined look.

Chloe planted a kiss on her cheek, “Roxanne, you're a genius."

"Don't count your chickens before they hatch. We need to watch out for this old man, he might stab us in the back.”

"We have the video. What can he do to us?”

"It's always better to be safe than sorry.”

“Roxanne, I was so worried. I couldn’t eat a thing. I’m starving. Let’s grab a bite before we head off. The food smells so good. Let's not let it go to waste.”

Then Chloe sat down and picked up her cutlery.

But Roxanne remained standing, "Let's take the food to go, I want to leave.”

"But you haven't eaten yet.”

"I'm a bit tired.”

Having dealt with the annoying old man, Roxanne was finally relieved, and she felt exhausted now.

Thinking back to the cold and determined look on Harrison's face when she ran into him earlier, she felt even more tired.

She picked up her bag and pushed back her chair, "I'm heading out, you can handle the food.”

"Roxanne, what's wrong?” Chloe didn’t feel like packing up, she followed Roxanne out of the room.

Just then, they bumped into Harrison and Alexander coming out of another room.

Neither of them knew the guy with glasses.

But they couldn't be more familiar with Harrison and Alexander.

Roxanne didn't even make eye contact with Harrison as she walked past him.

Chloe tugged on her arm, "Roxanne, shouldn't we say hi?”

"There's no need for pleasantries.”

He said he didn't know her, so even if she greeted him, he wouldn't respond. Why should she embarrass herself?

Roxanne had walked some distance away when Alexander finally glared at Harrison, "If you keep this up, when Roxanne finally gives up, you won't stand a chance."

Harrison's face was expressionless, "Where did you get the idea that I want to win her back?”

Alexander briskly walked away, "I don't want to talk to you. Sooner or later, the chairman will find out about this. I would like to see how you explain it to him.”

This had been kept a secret for over a month now. It was about time Vincent found out.

That afternoon, Harrison returned to Rodriguez Oasis Estates.

Vincent was at the barn feeding his calf a bottle of whiskey.

“Little one, drink up and grow strong,” he said.

He intended to slaughter the calf when it grew up and serve it to his daughter-in-law.

Standing outside the barn, Harrison couldn't help but frown.

"As chairman of the Rodriguez Group, you spend your days feeding cattle. Does this mean you've fallen in love with the farmer's life?”

Hearing the voice, Vincent turned around and saw his son standing there alone.

Concerned, he asked, "Why did you come back alone, where's Anne, why didn't you bring Roxanne back with you? I made it clear that if you were to come back, you should bring Roxanne. If you were to come back alone, then don't bother.”

Vincent continued to stroke the calf's back as he fed it whiskey.

"Roxanne and I are divorced. I thought I should tell you,” Harrison said bluntly.

Vincent's hand, which was stroking the calf's back, stiffened.
