The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison) novel Chapter 125

"You wicked woman, you dare to attack my wife and son? I'll make you pay!" The guy shouted.

Chloe's hair was yanked hard, causing her scalp to sting as if it was being ripped apart.

Holding Austin and Aria in her arms, Chloe couldn’t free her hands and unexpectedly fell backwards.

"Mom, be careful!" Aria was startled and rushed to help her hold Austin.

Finally, Chloe was able to free her hands and grabbed the man's arm, who had been pulling her hair.

They want to mess with her and her kids? No way in hell.

She would not let anyone hurt her children.

Thinking about her children, Chloe's anger exploded like a bomb.

She went all in.

She squeezed the man's arm tightly; she was going to make him pay.

"Ouch, you wicked woman, you dare to pinch me, ouch!” The guy was in pain.

Chloe went all in, not letting go even a bit.

Because once she let go, the man would become even more crazy.

As expected, the man let go of her due to the pain and kicked her hard, almost breaking her waist.

She fell to the ground and slid backwards for a few inches due to inertia. Her palms rubbed against the cold ground until her skin was torn, then she finally stopped.

Though the pain made it nearly impossible for her to stand up again, Chloe managed to get up quickly and protected her children behind her.

She was on high alert, glaring at the man.

And the boy and his mother nearby were still instigating,

"Good job.

She deserves it if she dies.

Hey, this woman and her kids are often alone in the neighborhood, there's no man around.

I guess she's divorced. Beat her, beat her hard! There's no man at home to protect her anyway."

Just because there was no man to protect them, they could be bullied?

Chloe was furious.

If that man dared to lay a hand on them again, she would fight him to the death.

She was not someone who could be bullied easily.

She reached into her bag and gripped the taser she carried with her.

She was constantly on guard against the wicked man who was approaching step by step.

Her palms were sweaty.

"Hitting a woman? What kind of man are you?"

At this moment, a man's voice rang out.

Chloe turned her head and saw Dominic, Roxanne's ex-boyfriend who she had just bumped into.

Seeing Dominic approach her, standing in front, and separating her from the wicked man, she slightly lowered her guard.

She suddenly felt a bit safer, b

ut she still didn't dare to relax.

"Dominic, that man is very vicious, be careful." Chloe said.

Dominic glanced at her, "Don't worry, I won't let him do anything."

Seven years ago, Dominic dumped Roxanne, leaving a bad impression on Chloe.

But at this moment, Dominic was willing to help her, which made her feel grateful.

The wicked man wanted to fight again, but was easily subdued by Dominic.

Dominic was indeed a sports star; his moves were swift and his strength was amazing.

He pushed the wicked man on the ground, and then grabbed his wrist and twisted it.

"Do you dare to hit a woman again?" Dominic asked.

"Ouch, it hurts. Please, let go." The guy pleaded him.

The subdued man lowered his head, unable to resist.

"Apologize." Dominic ordered.

"Sorry!" The guy said.

"I'm asking you to apologize to her." Dominic said.

The man raised his head slightly and looked at Chloe, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have hit you."

"Is that it?" Dominic asked.

"What else do you want?" The guy said.

"You kicked her, she must be hurt, and her palms are scraped from the fall. You have to pay for her medical bills, $500." Dominic said.

"She also pinched me and sprayed pepper spray on my wife and child." The guy said.

"Would you have been sprayed if you hadn't bullied people first?" Dominic asked.

With a slight effort from Dominic, the man was in so much pain that his face contorted.

"Ouch, I'll do. Give her the money." The man signaled to his wife.

The woman asked, "Why should I?"

The man said, "If you don't want your husband's arm to be twisted off, give them the money."

The woman reluctantly took out her phone and signaled Chloe to accept the money.

Chloe was stunned for a moment, but

Dominic persuaded her, "You're injured. You should take the medical expenses."

Only then did she show her payment information, and immediately heard a notification of $500 being transferred.

Dominic let go of the man's arm.

"I live in Tranquil Bliss Villa in this neighborhood, if I see you bully them again, be careful, I'll break your arm."

Those who could afford a villa in the Seraphim Haven were extremely rich.

The beaten man was a bit scared.

He quickly left with his wife and child, walking so fast as if he was afraid of being beaten again.

Under the moonlight, only Chloe, Dominic, and the children were left.

Chloe suddenly felt a bit guilty.

Because half an hour ago, when Dominic greeted her and asked about Roxanne, her attitude was not very good, and she even mocked Dominic.

At this moment, Dominic asked, "Isn't Oliver at home?"

"We're divorced." Chloe lowered her head.

Divorce was not something to be ashamed of, but it did make her feel a bit sad.

Dominic gentlemanly said, "I'm sorry!"

Being a divorced woman now was indeed not easy.

Dominic stretched out his hand and said,

"Phone."

"What?" Chloe asked.

"Give me your phone, I'll give you my number." Dominic said.

Chloe was stunned.

Dominic gave a bitter smile, "Don't worry, I'm adding your number but not to ask about Roxanne. I won't bother you."

"Oh." Chloe handed him her phone.

He quickly saved his own number on Chloe's phone and dialed his own number to save hers.

"This is my current number, the same for WhatsApp. I live in this neighborhood. If you need help in the future, feel free to contact me." Dominic said.

"Dominic, thank you." Chloe said.

"Even though Roxanne and I broke up, you're still my friend." Dominic said.

Chloe suddenly realized that maybe the labels they had put on Dominic over the past seven years were a bit unfair.

He seemed straightforward, not like a calculating man who was just out to take advantage of a rich girl?

Chloe was a bit curious and asked, "Dominic, when you and Roxanne broke up, was there some misunderstanding or miscommunication?"

Dominic didn't answer right away.

He gave a slight smirk as if he was about to say something, but then he held back.

Then, he gave a bitter smile and said,

"No misunderstanding here, I dumped Roxanne because of her poor background and hooked up with a rich girl."

But how would bad guy admit to being bad?

Real villains usually denied it, even acted all high and mighty. Just like Oliver, who thought he was the best and hottest guy in the world.

Chloe always felt that there must be some kind of misunderstanding.

Looking at Dominic, his eyes were filled with deep loneliness and pain, l

ike the sparse moonlight shining on the treetops, cold and filled with sorrow.

The moonlight cast upon Dominic's tall figure, making him seem utterly sad.

Chloe sighed, "Anyway, you and Roxanne are a thing of the past; she's already married now. I hope you can be happy too."

Dominic flashed a slight smile again, but he didn't say a word.

His broad shoulders seemed a bit droopy.

Something seemed to have collapsed in his eyes, l

ike his world was falling apart.

Chloe vaguely felt that Dominic was troubled by something.

He took a deep breath, finally feeling the air smoothly filling his chest, then he bent down to look at the children by Chloe's side.

Aria was holding her little brother, Austin.

There seemed to be tears in her eyes, but she held strong.

Dominic gently patted Aria's head, "You were very brave just now, good job."

Aria politely replied, "Sir, thank you for helping us."

Seeing Aria struggling to hold her brother, Chloe quickly took Austin from her, then also patted Aria's head.

Dominic loved children.

Chloe's two kids were both well-behaved and cute.

He took a longer look at them.

Then asked, "What's your name, sweetie?"

Aria obediently replied, "I'm Aria."

Dominic sighed, "Time flies. The year I broke up with Roxanne, you were just pregnant with Aria. Aria should be in elementary school now, right?"

Chloe replied, "Yes, Aria is now in the first grade. Seven years, just like that."

Dominic didn't say anything.

For others, these seven years might have passed in the blink of an eye.

But for him, these seven years were pure agony, like struggling in hell.
