The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison) novel Chapter 230

Roxanne thought, "We're just not meant to be!"

Once upon a time, Harrison was a part of her life. They had countless close encounters.

He was the closest person to her in the world and the one she most wanted to share her life with.

Yet, it was as if he had never existed.

From marriage to divorce, it was all like a dream.

The dream was over, but why couldn't she face reality?

"Chloe, don't mention Harrison in front of me ever again. I want a fresh start."

Her eyes were filled with determination. She was about to start over again.

Each time her loved one left, it was a painful experience for her.

The only thing that could bring her a sense of security was to live her life to the fullest, and work hard to earn money.

She wiped away her tears and firmly said, "Get a car. I need to get back to the office and work hard!"

Harrison returned to the company headquarters. He stepped out of the elevator, looking gloomy.

As he drove his car into the company building, Alexander, who had been waiting at the elevator, approached him.

"Harrison, did you really get a divorce?"

Without answering, Harrison walked into his office with Alexander trailing behind.

Seeing him toss the divorce papers into a drawer, Alexander frowned.

"Harrison, how can you just let go of a good wife so easily? I thought you were a responsible man. How could you divorce so easily? How could you be so irresponsible to a woman?"

Harrison, who had just sat down, put the divorce out of his mind.

He opened his computer, started checking emails from various department heads, and gave his secretary tasks. He was ready to reorganize his work and re-plan his life.

Before he met Roxanne, his life was all about work.

After the divorce, he needed to return to focusing solely on his work. That was what a company leader should be like.

If he were to be consumed by emotional troubles, would he still be a man?

He started typing on his computer, completely ignoring Alexander, who angrily closed his laptop.

"Are you crazy?" Harrison looked up, "What did my computer do to you?"

Alexander was livid, "You're the one who's crazy. You think working hard can cover up your inner pain? Divorce must be painful for you. Painful like being skinned and deboned, right? You're pretending as if nothing happened. Do you think that's cool?"

Harrison reopened his computer, "I don't have time to chit-chat with you, get out."

Alexander angrily closed the computer again, "You divorced so easily. How do you expect Roxanne to live?" Alexander was really angry.

"She'll live better than anyone." Thinking about Roxanne's firm stance during the divorce, not asking for any assets, Harrison frowned even more, his face darkened.

Alexander asked, "Do you understand Roxanne?"

Harrison remained silent, while Alexander rambled on.

"When Roxanne married you, you were just an ordinary guy starting over after bankruptcy. She thought you were equals, you could support each other, and she could have a steady life with you. But all of a sudden, you became the richest man in Seraphim Haven and your high status made her feel inferior. Didn't you think of that? She wanted to continue her career, not relying on you. Isn't she doing this to love you more purely, to be with you? She asked for a divorce, just to get your agreement to let her continue working, and you actually divorced her, don't you understand your wife?"

Harrison asked, "What is she to you?"

"I said all this, and you still think I'm defending her, did I say anything wrong?" Alexander was disappointed with Harrison's ignorance.

Alexander had a special empathy for women, because he believed that women were inherently disadvantaged, and every good woman deserved to be cherished by men.

He could no longer cherish his ex-wife. If Hazel hadn't cheated on him multiple times, he would've pampered her for life.

Alexander couldn't tolerate men who didn't cherish women.

This time, Alexander was really disappointed in Harrison, "Harrison, you can go on being proud for the rest of your life, but don't regret it."

After saying this, Alexander left.
