The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison) novel Chapter 60

Nah.

This wasn't how Harrison had planned things to go.

He quickly ditched that idea.

He accepted the fact that Roxanne was his wife.

But, h

e couldn’t lose control like this.

A man should prioritize his career and not let a woman continuously disrupt his plans.

The next day.

Roxanne went to work cheerfully.

It was supposed to be a wonderful day, but her good mood ended the moment Nathaniel and Sebastian appeared at her office door.

Her company was just a small one.

There was no formal entrance, just a rented three-story farmhouse used as an office and warehouse.

No security at the door either.

So, when Nathaniel and Sebastian walked in, no one stopped them.

Seeing this father and son duo, Roxanne felt a lump in her chest.

"Here to make trouble again?"

"Trouble?" Nathaniel gave Sebastian a shove. "Your daughter doesn't want to support you. What am I supposed to do?”

Roxanne glanced at Sebastian.

"Roxanne, I'm really sorry. Forgive me, after all, I'm your biological father. You can't just abandon me."

Sebastian's fake pitiful look didn't soften her.

On the contrary, she felt more disgusted with Sebastian.

Only when he had nowhere else to turn did he remember he had a daughter?

In the past twenty years, when she was suffering and being bullied, did he ever think about the daughter he abandoned in the countryside?

When Sebastian abandoned her, she was only four years old.

Four!

Most kids at four were still being spoiled in their parents' arms.

But after all these years, she was trying to remember her parents' embrace, but couldn't recall what it felt like to be held.

Roxanne clenched her fists, resolutely saying, "I have no obligation to support him. Take him away."

Nathaniel took out two hundred bucks from his wallet and threw it on Roxanne's desk.

"I've increased his living expenses to two hundred.

Don't say I'm not supporting him. Since I've paid, you as his daughter, definitely have to take responsibility."

Chloe stood up and said, "Nathaniel, is this really the way to talk?"

Nathaniel impatiently replied, "I don’t want to argue. Roxanne, if you don't want to support him, just throw him out on the streets. I've already paid anyway."

After saying this, Nathaniel turned and left.

Sebastian stayed behind, crying in front of everyone in Roxanne's company.

All that stuff about how pitiful he was, Roxanne didn't want to hear a word.

She coldly asked, "Sebastian, are you taking your son's money and leaving, or are you waiting for me to kick you out?"

Sebastian sat on the floor and said, "I'm not leaving today. I want to see if you can really be heartless and throw me out."

This shameless Sebastian made Chloe grind her teeth.

Chloe spoke for Roxanne. "Sebastian, your son has ten houses in Seraphim Haven, he's a high-level executive at a big company, with an annual salary of hundreds of thousands of dollars. He's fully capable of taking care of you, and it's his responsibility. Why do you have to rely on Roxanne who you abandoned before?"

Sebastian sat on the floor and didn't get up.

"Doesn't my son need to date and get married? If I stick around like this, what if his girlfriend doesn't like me? How is he going to get married? I can't ruin my son's happy life."

"You don't want to ruin your son's happy life." Chloe's neck stiffened with anger, "So you're here to ruin Roxanne's life, right? Doesn't Roxanne deserve to get married and have happiness?"

Roxanne asked in surprise, "Who's going to pick up Sebastian? Did you call the police? The police won't handle this kind of family dispute, they'll just tell you to sort it out yourself. I'm really helpless with him."

"No need to call the cops for this," Harrison said casually. "I've asked a friend to help out."

Roxanne asked, "Your friend can handle this? What kind of friend is he?"

"You'll see," Harrison replied.

One by one, the rest of the office started clocking out.

When Chloe saw Harrison, she was relieved. She was in a hurry to pick up her kid from school and with Harrison there, she stopped worrying

about leaving Roxanne alone to deal with the clingy Sebastian.

About twenty minutes later, a reluctant Nathaniel appeared in front of Sebastian. "Let's go, I'm taking you home."

Sebastian was taken aback. "Didn't you tell me to stick with Roxanne and not to go home?"

"Irritated, Nathaniel said, "Don't ever come looking for her again, stop causing me trouble."

About half an hour ago, Nathaniel had received a call from the branch manager, saying the group’s CEO wanted to speak to him.

The group’s CEO was a big deal!

Although Nathaniel was the CFO of an investment company under the Rodriguez Group, he'd never had the chance to talk to the CEO, let alone meet him.

When he got the call from the CEO, Nathaniel thought there might have be some good news.

A promotion?

A raise?

A transfer to the head office?

Nathaniel was full of hope.

Instead, the CEO said if he didn't want to be fired, he should pick up Sebastian and take good care of him.

What a surprise.

How did the CEO know that he'd given up on looking after Sebastian?
