The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison) novel Chapter 118

It's about five o 'clock in the afternoon. Roxanne and Chloe were sitting in the car together. Once Nathaniel knocked off work, they started tailing him in their car, keeping a steady speed.

They were sitting in a Porsche they'd won in a lottery, which was super comfortable.

However, when Chloe looked at the stuff in the backseat, she felt a little spooked.

"Roxy, those snakes won't escape, right?"

"Nah, I've secured them with duct tape. Even if they escape, I'll just capture them back."

"You're brave, daring to catch snakes."

"They're not venomous, what's there to be scared of?"

"Even if they're not venomous, I'm still scared."

Snakes are slimy and cold, just thinking about it gives one the creeps.

Chloe kept glancing in the backseat.

Meanwhile, Roxanne was focused on Nathaniel's car not far ahead.

Nathaniel was loaded.

Just a few days ago he was driving a Porsche identical to Roxanne's.

But today he was driving a fancy, expensive Land Rover.

He's got money, but his father Sebastian was seriously ill in the hospital and he's not willing to pay the medical fees, nor hire a caretaker.

Nathaniel even cursed Chloe, saying Sebastian shouldn't have birthed her.

But actually, the one who should be abandoned, is this scumbag Nathaniel.

Roxy really wanted to step on the gas and ram into Nathaniel's car.

But she chose the rational approach.

She drove, tailing Nathaniel, and not far from her car, a Rolls Royce was also following her.

Harrison, sitting in the Rolls Royce, was frowning.

He didn't understand why Roxanne, after encountering such a big issue and being bullied by Nathaniel, didn't tell him.

What the heck was she thinking?

Did she really consider him her husband?

Or was she just too stubborn to rely on others?

Harrison could understand Roxanne, she had been living independently since she was little.

But hadn't he already told her that she had him now, and she should tell him everything at once?

This silly girl.

Did she actually think she could take on the world?

Did she actually think she could solve all problems?

Even though he was angry, Harrison was more worried.

Roxanne always drove aggressively.

If Nathaniel drove fast, she'd follow fast.

Her Porsche was weaving through traffic like a snake, afraid of losing sight of Nathaniel's car.

Anthony, following behind, had to speed up too, "Mr. Harrison, Ms. Martinez is driving too fast, I'm struggling to keep up."

"Speed up." Harrison ordered with a stern face, "Don't lose sight."

"Mr. Harrison, you should also tell Ms. Martinez to slow down and drive safely. Her driving is just too reckless." Anthony suggested.

Harrison had already warned her, but she wouldn't listen.

That's how fast she drove. This little rascal, was she not taking his words seriously?

After about twenty minutes, Nathaniel arrived home.

He's a resident of the community, so the moment his car entered, it was automatically recognized and he drove in smoothly.

But Roxanne was stopped by the security guard.

The guard asked her to register her visitor information and car plate number.

Such a hassle.

But after registration, she still managed to find Nathaniel's car.

Nathaniel was now standing in front of his Land Rover, fixing his hair in the mirror.

He thought he's the most handsome guy. Fixing his hair, he even whistled proudly.

He was thinking about how he'd scared Roxy recently, she must be terrified now. Soon, she'd have to go to the hospital to take care of paralyzed Sebastian, which made Nathaniel extremely happy.

He was imagining Roxanne's reaction to the snakes he sent, was she scared?

She must be scared to death.

Hmph, she dared to challenge him?

She couldn't possibly win.

As Nathaniel was combing his hair in the mirror, whistling cheerfully, suddenly a cold wind blew at the back of his neck.

A snake's head, suddenly came close to Nathaniel's ear.

In the mirror, Nathaniel saw the snake, raising its head and hissing.

Suddenly, he felt ice cold by his ear.

He was so scared he almost peed his pants.

"Oh my god, what is this?"

"Don't you recognize it?" Roxanne casually put the snake on Nathaniel's shoulder, "It's a snake."

The snake immediately slithered from Nathaniel's shoulder to his cheek.

Nathaniel didn't dare to move.

He didn't dare to move at all.

Seeing Roxanne, he almost cried, but he yelled, "Roxanne, get this thing off me, now."

"Are you ordering me?"

Roxanne leaned lazily against his car door.

"You can scare me, I can't scare you? If you want me to remove it, beg me."

Nathaniel really wanted to kill Roxanne.

But he was so scared of snakes, he was about to die of fear now.

The snake coiled in front of him, stopping on his nose.

The snake's cold body made her shudder. Nathaniel didn't care about his dignity anymore, he begged for mercy.

"I was wrong, I shouldn't have scared you. Please, get this thing off me, please."

"Alright." Roxanne giggled mischievously.

She grabbed the snake and stuffed it into Nathaniel's collar.

The cold, slimy thing immediately slid into Nathaniel's shirt.

Drip, drip!

Nathaniel peed himself, not only was his pants wet, his urine also spilled onto the ground.

Roxanne sneered, "Coward!"

She wanted to play some more stimulating games.

He got scared and peed himself so easily?

Not fun at all.

"Nathaniel, you're too much of a coward."

"Ah, Ahhh..." Nathaniel was about to cry.

"Don't cry."

Roxanne took out another black snake from the box, holding the snake in the middle and dangling it in front of Nathaniel.

"Nathaniel, weren't you bold? You had the guts to send me dead black cats and snakes, and now you're wetting your pants and crying like a baby?"

A snake was slithering around Nathaniel's clothes, and another was flicking its tail in front of him.

Instantly, Nathaniel's scalp was tingling, his limbs were cold, and he was dripping urine in his crotch. Roxanne, on the other hand, was not scared at all.

She reached into the box and grabbed a handful of snakes, dumping them all on Nathaniel.

"Still think you can scare me? I've been around snakes since I was a kid. I'm not afraid of these things. Nathaniel, I'm not some delicate flower that needs protecting. When I get mean, I can make you cry your eyes out,"

Nathaniel was covered in snakes, crying and begging for mercy.

"Roxanne, I'm scared. I'm really scared, please get these snakes off me, I beg you."

"No chance."

"Please, sis, consider that I'm three years younger than you, consider our sibling relationship, help me. Sis, please, quickly, get these snakes off me."

Roxanne sneered, "Am I your sister? I don't recall agreeing to that."

Now he wanted to acknowledge her as his sister?

When he was threatening and intimidating her, and morally kidnapping her, didn't he consider their blood ties?

"Sis, anyway, I'm your half-brother. Please, for the sake of our blood ties, help me get rid of these snakes, I beg you."

"Oh, you did remind me. We are indeed children of the same father."

"Yes, yes, yes, sis, we're blood related, please help me."

A few snakes were still coiling around Nathaniel.

Even as he spoke, he was trembling.

He wanted to shake the snakes off, but he couldn't move his body at all.

But clearly, she still didn't rely on him that much.

On the way back, Harrison was in a bad mood.

Was Roxanne too independent, or was he not worth relying on?

Driving the car, Anthony couldn't stop praising Roxanne.

"Mr. Harrison, Ms. Martinez is really strong. She wasn't scared at all of those snakes. Even I, a big guy, had goosebumps. No wonder Nathaniel was freaked out."

Harrison was still pissed, "You think that's a good thing?"

"Absolutely." Anthony said, "Now no one will dare to mess with Ms. Martinez."

Harrison was silent for a moment, "I wish she would rely on me."

Roxanne was driving, stopped at a red light.

"Chloe, I'll drop you home first, then I'll pick up Harrison."

"How about you pick up Harrison first? You can drop me off here, I'll take the bus home."

"No way, I can't let you take the bus. I haven't heard back from Harrison yet, I don't know if he's working overtime."

While waiting for the light, Roxanne called Harrison.

Harrison answered immediately.

She asked, "Harrison, are you working late? What time do you finish? I'll come pick you up."

"How was your day?" Harrison didn't answer, instead he asked.

"Not bad, had a minor issue but it's resolved now. I'll tell you when we get home, when will you be done? I'll come get you."

"Why don't you come get me now?"

Harrison, who was a bit grumpy just now, immediately wanted to go home when he heard his wife was coming to pick him up.

"You might have to wait a bit, I'm dropping Chloe off first, I'll be there in about half an hour."

"That's fine, I'll wait."

Roxanne was about to hang up, when Harrison quickly said, "Roxanne, don't hang up."

"Uh huh." Roxanne, about to disconnect the car phone, pulled her hand back and held the steering wheel, "What's up?"

"Can you drive a little slower, don't be so reckless."

"Do I drive that fast?"

"Just drive slower."

"Got it, I told you, I've been driving for eight years, I know what to watch for, I'm hanging up now."

When she hung up the phone, Chloe finally spoke, "Anne, Harrison really cares about you."

"He's just a nag."

"I wish someone would nag me, but there's nobody."

Chloe felt a bit down.

She also wanted a warm person, but it always seemed hard to find. Now she's divorced and has two kids.

"No worries, I'll nag you often, until you're sick of me."

"I don't mind you nagging." Chloe didn't want to get too emotional, quickly adjusted her mood and complimented, "Anne, Harrison's voice is really nice."

"I think so too. His voice is very distinctive."

His voice was like a violin, deep and elegant, irresistibly attractive.

Seeing the happy smile on Roxanne's face, Chloe felt relieved.

Even though her marriage failed, her good friend found the right person.

After Roxanne dropped Chloe off at her apartment complex, Chloe waved at her, "Remember, listen to your husband Harrison, drive slower, don't be reckless."

"Got it." Roxanne smiled, "You go take care of your kids."

As Roxanne drove off, the smile on Chloe's face gradually disappeared.

As a divorced woman, she always felt a bit sad when she was alone.

But thinking of the two children waiting for her at home, she found her motivation.

Who said a woman needs a man to live?

She had her children, her career, that was enough.

Even though her marriage failed, she had two adorable children, which was her greatest wealth.

Thinking of going home to hug her children, Chloe walked away, with firm and powerful steps.

On the road, Roxanne was driving a Porsche, heading to Investor Complex.

Even though both Harrison and Chloe told her to drive slower.

But she didn't want Harrison to wait too long, and wanted to take him home as soon as possible, so she was still driving fast.

She couldn't wait to see Harrison...
