The Windfalls of Love novel Chapter 51

Harrison's trust touched Roxanne deeply. She gently moved Harrison's hand away and asked, "Harrison, would you mind?"

"If I had been there, I wouldn’t just have stabbed his leg with scissors. I'd have chopped off his dick," Harrison responded without hesitation.

Roxanne burst into laughter, "Harrison, do you think we would have been childhood sweethearts if we had grown up together?"

Harrison countered, "Did you have a runny nose a lot when you were a kid?"

"Why do you ask?"

"I don't like little girls who are always sniffling. If you had a runny nose all the time as a kid, I might have found you a bit repulsive."

"You're the one who always had a runny nose. Even though I grew up in the countryside, I was very clean as a child."

They continued walking.

Roxanne then said, "Harrison, it's strange. After my live stream, that single man at the village entrance was arrested, and his previous crimes were exposed. It all happened so quickly."

It was impossible for the authorities to investigate and get results that quickly. Only two days had passed, and the man was already in jail.

Harrison suggested, "Maybe a powerful person behind the scenes is helping you."

Roxanne immediately rebutted, "I’m not that lucky to know any powerful people. The richest person I know is Oliver's brother-in-law, a local tycoon worth billions. But he doesn't give a damn about us."

Harrison noted, "What if you're just lucky and did meet someone powerful?"

Roxanne asked, "Who would that powerful person be, secretly supporting me from behind?"

Harrison said nothing. He was the one secretly supporting her.

Remembering her question a few days ago about whether he could promise not to divorce and his promise to treat her sincerely and live a good life together, Harrison furrowed his brows. Since he promised sincerity, he should discuss his identity with her at some point.

But now was not the time. It was a matter that demanded a serious approach.

The issue with Sebastian seemed to have passed. But it hadn't.

Roxanne exposed Sebastian's crimes online and the fact that Sebastian's son Nathaniel, who earned half a million a year, didn't support his elderly father. Both father and son's lives were greatly affected.

Roxanne had experienced cyberbullying, and now Sebastian and Nathaniel were going through it. One day, Nathaniel pulled up outside Roxanne's company in a high-end Porsche worth close to a million.

The moment Roxanne stepped out, Nathaniel spotted her. She was with Chloe, chatting and laughing with their arms linked.

Chloe suggested, "Anne, Oliver aren't home today. Amelia cooked something delicious. Come eat at my house."

Roxanne declined, "I can't. I have to go home for dinner. My father-in-law also cooked something delicious, and Harrison will be home for dinner too. I need to go back and join them."

Chloe noted, "Your life after marriage is really different from mine. Although I carefully chose my in-laws, they all turned out to be hard to get along with. Conversely, you ended up with a father-in-law who adores you just by chance."

Roxanne smiled, "Indeed, my father-in-law treats me better than his own daughter."
