The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison) novel Chapter 92

Roxanne strolled over, planning to say hi to Harrison. But Harrison casually glanced up and spotted his wife and her friend approaching.

Talking about a lucky break!

He was planning to bring her and Chloe to court tomorrow, but since they were here now, he might as well settle it now.

Ethan from the court followed Harrison's gaze.

Harrison waved at Roxanne and Chloe, "Ethan, this is my wife Roxanne, and her friend Chloe." With that, he turned to Roxanne.

Roxanne asked him, "Harrison, what are you doing here at the court?"

After greeting Chloe, he answered Roxanne's question, "Our company just wrote a program for the court. I was the one in charge, just finished discussing it with Ethan."

He was a smooth liar. When he lied, he didn't let anything slip.

Ethan played along, "Ms. Martinez, your husband's program is top-notch."

This was pre-arranged with Ethan. Roxanne's friends were all business people, and she didn't know anyone in the court. This was her first time speaking with the head of the court.

A regular joe like her would never have a chance to meet the head. But she wasn't scared, keeping her cool with a smile, "You flatter me, Ethan."

She was really worried about Chloe, but she wasn’t sure if she could ask Ethan for help. It was kind of awkward for Roxanne to bring it up. After all, her husband Harrison wasn't all that close with Ethan.

Harrison seemed to know what she was thinking, "Roxanne, I was just discussing Chloe's divorce case with Ethan."

Roxanne and Chloe both tensed up. They exchanged glances. Could Harrison really ask Ethan to speed up the divorce proceedings?

Ethan made a welcoming gesture, "Since you're here, why don't we discuss it inside?"

After about half an hour of discussion, Chloe's divorce case was making progress. The delay in her divorce hearing was indeed questionable. But now that Ethan was personally overseeing the case, it could be heard in two weeks.

Mission accomplished.

Walking out of the court, Roxanne still couldn't believe it, “Harrison, did Ethan really help speed up Chloe’s court date to two weeks from now?”

Harrison sent a Whatsapp message to his driver Anthony: [I'm with my wife, no need to pick me up. I'll grab a cab.]

After sending the message, he answered Roxanne, "It's not really a favor. The hearing shouldn't have been delayed five months in the first place. The deputy head who intentionally delayed the case, Ethan will deal with him. He's a fair and just guy."

It sounded plausible, but Roxanne was still skeptical, "Harrison, you seem to know Ethan pretty well."

"We're not that close, I just helped them write a small program. We got to know each other after a few exchanges." Harrison said.

Roxanne didn't ask any more questions.

Chloe thanked Harrison many times for his help. Harrison said to her in a friendly way, "You're a friend to Roxanne, so don't be so formal with me. If you need help with anything, let me know. Consider me a good friend."

Roxanne lightly patted Harrison, correcting him, "What friend? You're Chloe's brother-in-law from now on. My bond with Chloe is tighter than blood sisters."

Last time, the court sent the paperwork to Oliver. This time, they found Oliver and asked, "Are you Oliver?"

Oliver nodded, "Yes, I am."

The uniformed person said, "We're from the court."

Then, they handed Oliver a subpoena and said, "The person named on this subpoena must appear in court on time, or we'll hold you legally responsible."

Holding the subpoena, Oliver was puzzled. Hadn't his brother-in-law taken care of this and told him not to show up in court?

Just then, Charlotte got a call from Sophia.

Sophia said, "Mom, about Oliver's divorce case, don't let my husband help Oliver anymore. That person is under investigation, and your son-in-law is suspected of bribery. It's a big mess. You guys should just get divorced. Why drag my husband into this. It's so annoying. Mom, stop calling me. Because of your son, my husband has been yelling at me. He even threatened to divorce me."

The call ended.

When Charlotte called back, Sophia hung up. When things were going well, the Lewis family was tight-knit. But when things went south, they started blaming each other. That was the Lewis family.

The court's people left, and Chloe looked at Charlotte and Oliver, this disgusting mother-son duo. All they saw was dollar signs, so bloody materialistic.

They wanted to divorce her, fight for Aria's custody, and even have Aria earn money for them when she grew up. Like hell. She would never let Aria grow up in such a disgusting family.

Chloe was adamant and said, “Oliver, you can't find any excuses now, can you? Can't avoid the court anymore, right? I'm definitely divorcing you and I've nothing to say to you. See you in court in two weeks."
