The Windfalls of Love novel Chapter 44

Harrison arrived with bodyguards, but he was too late. Even though he usually appeared alone, without any bodyguards accompanying him, the truth was that his top-notch security personnel were dispersed among the local citizens, concealed in various corners.

Under Harrison's guidance, these bodyguards cleared a path for him to walk through.

Just as Roxanne was reaching her breaking point, Harrison stood in front of her, shielding her and helping her escape. She had no idea that Harrison had sent bodyguards to protect her. In that moment as Harrison protected her, he seemed like a hero.

When they finally reached a location where no one could follow, Harrison stopped. He, too, had been dirtied in the process of protecting her.

Roxanne felt truly sorry to see him, who usually appeared so clean, covered in filth.

"Harrison, I'm sorry. I've involved you in this and made things so difficult for you."

"We're a married couple. There's no need for apologies."

He helped her wipe the dirt off her face. He had never seen her in such a disheveled and pitiable state before.

"Don't worry, no one will dare harass you outside your company tomorrow."

Unbeknownst to Roxanne, Harrison had already made arrangements.

She didn't want Harrison to see her in such a state of disarray and lowered her head, feeling wronged.

"Harrison, do I look very ugly like this?"

"Not at all."

"You're just trying to comfort me."

"I'm really not lying; you don't look ugly."

"Harrison, could I lean on your shoulder?"

Harrison didn't respond, so Roxanne took it as his agreement. In reality, Harrison wanted to hold her close, offering a comforting embrace.

But what Roxanne truly needed right now was a shoulder to lean on. She leaned against his shoulder, despite the dirt on his clothes.

Neither of them cared about each other's smell. It was the first time Harrison realized that the usually independent Roxanne also needed him at times. This feeling of being needed was truly wonderful.

He patted her back gently. "It's okay, it's okay."

Harrison had Alexander gather information about Sebastian's current wife and son. Sebastian's son was named Nathaniel Martinez. He worked as the CFO at an investment company under the Rodriguez Group, earning a yearly salary of five hundred thousand dollars. He owned several properties in Seraphim Haven, including two expensive sports cars and SUVs. Some of these properties were gifted by Sebastian in the past, while others Nathaniel purchased himself.

Harrison also found out that the idea to defame Roxanne on the internet came from Nathaniel.

With the information collected, Harrison decided to help Roxanne resolve the online defamation issue.

Vincent was deeply saddened by Roxanne's situation.

How could such a good daughter have such a malicious father? Vincent gave Harrison an order.

"Harrison, I don't care. You go online and take down all the distorted videos about Sebastian."

Since the Rodriguez Group held shares in two of these media companies and Harrison knew the controllers of the remaining major online media outlets, it only took a few minutes to take down the videos from their official websites and self-media platforms.

"Dad, you used to be the chairman of the company. If we remove these videos, won't new ones attacking Roxanne appear? Haven't you thought about that?"

Could that villain Sebastian really stop at this?

He definitely wouldn't.

Harrison said, "To solve this problem, we need to show the truth to the public and give Roxanne justice."

Vincent retorted, "But people online often only believe what they see and hear. They trust what's presented to them. Sebastian abandoning Roxanne happened twenty-four years ago; it's not easy to clarify this with just words."

"Don't worry, I'm gathering evidence."

Vincent added, "Also, go talk to the local police station and city management department, so that those internet users don't cause trouble at Roxanne's company."
