The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison) novel Chapter 202

Roxanne gently pushed him away.

Harrison's chest and lips left her.

Harrison opened his eyes, his brows furrowed, his gaze heavy.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

Clearly, she hadn't enjoyed the intimacy just now.

A sharp pain gripped Harrison's heart as if being clawed at.

Roxanne looked at Harrison.

"Harrison, I don't want to get pregnant," she said, "You suddenly became the richest man in Seraphim Haven, and I'm still adjusting. I'm worried we might not be a good match. If we have a kid, they might suffer. My child needs to grow up in a happy and healthy family, and I don't want them to live like I did. So, if we end up not being a good fit and get divorced, it's better if we don't have a kid."

Her answers were clear and decisive, her true thoughts with no hint of pretense or concealment.

She knew that as husband and wife, they should be honest with each other.

Especially now, with him being the richest man in Seraphim Haven, these things needed to be clear.

This made Harrison feel really down.

Frowning, he asked, "Are you saying you might still divorce me?"

"I didn't say I want to divorce, but if we're not suitable, forcing it won't do anyone any good," Roxanne replied.

They were in an awkward position. He was on top of her when he had kissed her.

Now, his hopeful gaze turned gloomy.

He always thought he was charming, but in front of Roxanne, he felt like his charm had evaporated.

Roxanne adjusted her breathing, then reached up to unbutton Harrison's shirt. "You want to do it today, don't you?"

Harrison didn't respond.

Roxanne continued, "As long as you use a condom, I can cooperate."

It had been more than a month since they last made love.

Roxanne knew Harrison must have needs.

Although she was still adjusting to Harrison's new status, she felt it was her duty as a wife.

Harrison saw through her thoughts.

Frowning, he looked at her painfully, "Roxanne, do you feel like having sex with me is a duty?"

Roxanne stopped at his question and looked at him.

He was angry.

He asked again, "Roxanne, I want to know what you thought every time we made love?"

Harrison didn't wait for her to answer. "Fine, you don't need to tell me."

Then he rolled over and left her to take a shower.

After the shower, he lay beside her but didn't get any closer.

They slept back to back, with no interaction whatsoever.

A notification sound from WhatsApp broke the silence.

Chloe asked if she was asleep.

Roxanne thought she would have a heart-to-heart with Chloe when she had the time.

She should also tell Chloe about Harrison being the richest man in Seraphim Haven.

Now was a good time for that.

Lying next to Harrison, she felt awkward anyway.

She hadn't felt so unsettled when she first found out he was the richest man in Seraphim Haven.

She sent Chloe a message, "What if I told you Harrison is the richest man in Seraphim Haven we talked about before, the heir to the Rodriguez Group? Would you believe it?"

On the other end, Chloe stared at the screen, feeling guilty.

She knew Harrison's true identity before Roxanne, didn't she?

It was time to be honest.

No matter how Roxanne reacted, she had to tell the truth.

Chloe replied to Roxanne, "Actually, I knew about Harrison's identity as the richest man in Seraphim Haven when I was in Novaria."

“You've known that Harrison is the richest man in Seraphim Haven? How did you know? Why didn't you tell me sooner?”

"I overheard a conversation between Harrison and Alexander. Anne, Harrison didn't want to hide it from you. He truly loves you, so don't blame him.”

Roxanne didn't reply.

"I heard you guys have been having problems recently. Anne, he's such a noble man, willing to give up his status as the richest man in Seraphim Haven for you, forgive him.”

"I'm not blaming him. I just need to reconsider our marriage.”

"Anne, what else do you need to consider? It's not easy to find another man as excellent as Harrison.”
