The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison) novel Chapter 190

Chloe felt like she was in a soap opera or like she was reading some online fiction. Her best friend was actually experiencing such wild drama and romance. She couldn’t believe how lucky Roxanne was. She married the richest man in Seraphim Haven, becoming a high-society lady overnight. Talk about winning the lottery!

Chloe was both envious and pleased, but all in all, she was genuinely happy for Roxanne.

She remembered how Harrison’s father, Vincent, the Chairman of the Rodriguez Group, cooked meals for his daughter-in-law, Roxanne. The dozen or so employees in their company also got to enjoy this treatment, eating meals prepared by Mr. Rodriguez himself. Each grain of rice they ate seemed more precious than gold.

They all went to the airport. Three of the men went to collect their boarding passes, while Chloe and Roxanne sat down to rest. The more Chloe looked at Roxanne, the more she felt that Roxanne was one lucky duck.

“Anne, how come I never noticed before how lucky you are?” Chloe asked.

“Huh? I don’t see it.” Roxanne said, thinking Chloe was acting weird since they got up that morning.

“I think you’re the kind of person who would marry into a wealthy family.” Chloe said.

“I’m thin and don’t look like a rich girl. How could I possibly marry into a wealthy family?” Roxanne asked.

“Although you’re skinny, you have an air of wealth about you. You really look like a high-society lady.”

“Chloe, do you want me to divorce Harrison?” Roxanne pinched Chloe’s arm. “Why don’t you think our marriage will work out? Do you really want me to be a high-society lady?”

Chloe rubbed the spot where Roxanne pinched her and couldn’t help but laugh.

“Alright, alright, I was just saying. I don’t want you to divorce Harrison. When you came back yesterday, Harrison said that if you two ever argued and he upset you, he wanted me to mediate and speak well of him in front of you. He cares about you so much, and you love him too; how could you possibly divorce?”

Chloe believed their marriage was the happiest one she had ever seen. She was sure they would never divorce. She was just waiting for the day when Roxanne realized she was a high-society lady. Roxanne would probably have a child by then, right?

Chloe laughed. “I just hope you get pregnant soon.”

“Don’t worry.” Roxanne’s mouth curled into a smile. “We haven’t been using contraception lately, so I think I’ll get pregnant soon.”

Twenty-plus hours later, they arrived back in Seraphim Haven. Instead of going home, Roxanne went straight to work. She had to go on a business trip to Warmville so she could rent a factory, set up a production line, and expand the production scale. She booked a flight to Warmville for the same day and sent Harrison a message just before boarding, telling him she was going on a business trip. And just like that, the couple was separated for a week.

A week later, Harrison finished his work and was ready to fly to Warmville to find Roxanne. But the flight was canceled due to a typhoon. Harrison, who was already at the airport, decided to drive to Warmville.

“Are you sure you want to drive yourself?” Anthony, his driver, was surprised. “Mr. Harrison, are you sure? It’s hundreds of kilometers to Warmville. It will take nearly ten hours.”

Could Mr. Harrison endure such a long time?

“Mr. Harrison, it’s not safe to drive for ten hours straight unless we rest midway.”

Harrison was determined. “It’s fine; if you get tired halfway, I can take over.”

Anthony couldn’t convince him to change his mind.

He understood that Mr. Harrison before and after his marriage were two completely different people.

He was desperate to see his beloved wife, so Anthony could only follow his orders and drive straight to Warmville.

They didn’t stop on the way.

When they arrived, Harrison called Roxanne several times.

The phone kept ringing, but no one answered.

Finally, they got in touch. Roxanne rushed to the front desk and looked at Harrison.

She hurriedly introduced him to Madison, the receptionist.

“Madison, this is my husband, Harrison Rodriguez. You can just call him Harrison. Please show him to my dormitory.”

Then she said to Harrison. “Harrison, I still have some things to deal with. Wait for me in the dormitory. I’ll come to you when I’m done.”

She had already taken a few steps away after she finished speaking.

Harrison, who felt neglected, frowned as he watched his wife walk away. Her figure quickly blended in with the workers on the production line, and he lost sight of her.

He didn’t notice that Madison was looking at him with admiration.

This was Roxanne’s husband?!

He was really handsome, elegant, and had a strong aura.

He was like a character from a TV show.

Madison couldn’t help but take a few extra glances.

Harrison didn’t like being stared at.
