The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison) novel Chapter 233

Seraphim Haven was boiling hot in the summer.

After a busy day until past eight in the evening, Roxanne and Chloe grabbed a couple of combo meals at a roadside diner, indulging in the food.

Due to the heat, Roxanne was chugging down soup when her phone rang.

Seeing that it was Vincent calling, she put down her soup bowl, her face turning serious.

Did Vincent know about her divorce with Harrison?

She had been planning to tell Vincent herself, but felt guilty and Harrison had said he'd tell Vincent, so she had been avoiding contact with Vincent.

She picked up the call, and Vincent said he wanted to meet up and asked where she was.

She told him she was at a diner near the neighborhood, and after asking for the detailed address, he arrived in a matter of minutes.

A stretch limo pulled up at the corner of the diner, looking out of place in the bustling environment.

The patrons, passersby, and people from other stores all gave the limo a second glance.

Why would such a luxurious car be in a place like this?

Roxanne quickly wiped her mouth and got up to greet him, "Dad!"

Chloe also came forward, "Mr. Vincent."

Vincent nodded at Chloe and kindly said, "Chloe, Roxanne and I have something to discuss."

"Sure, you guys go ahead. I'm going to pick up Aria."

Vincent asked about Chloe and the kid for a bit, then said goodbye to Chloe, and pulled Roxanne into his car.

"Drive." The driver started the car.

Sitting next to Vincent, Roxanne felt extremely guilty, "Dad, you know about my divorce with Harrison, right?"

Her mood was low, her voice sounding weak.

Vincent let out a deep sigh, "Roxanne, I'm really relieved and happy that you can still call me Dad. I really consider you my daughter." His eyes welled up with tears as he spoke.

His son didn't know how to cherish such a good daughter.

"Dad, I'm sorry. I once promised to give you a cute granddaughter."

Her pregnancy was an accident, and so was the miscarriage.

Their child probably wasn't meant to be with them, it was fate.

"The one who should apologize is me. I didn't educate my son properly. He's too proud. He doesn't understand or respect you."

"Roxanne, you're right. There's nothing wrong with wanting your own career. Harrison should respect you. I'll have a talk with him when I get back, give him a chance to make amends, can you do that?"

"Dad, don't make me be with Harrison anymore, we're really not suitable."

Vincent looked very worried, "Anne, did you ever love my son? If you still love him, I promise to make him apologize to you."

Roxanne gave a small laugh, "Love or not love. I'm not one to ask for much, just to live a peaceful and stable life."

She didn't admit it, but Vincent knew she must love Harrison deeply.

She was just trying to remove Harrison from her heart because she was hurt.

It was the same as when he met her eight years ago, when she was trying to get Dominic out of her heart.

Vincent was disappointed in his son.

This time Roxanne had declared that she had given up, it would be very difficult for his son to win her back.

"Dad. If I can't be your daughter-in-law, then let me be your daughter. Eight years ago, we went through life and death together. We're already the closest of family. You wouldn't mind, right?"

"As long as you don't mind this old man who talks too much."

"Then it's settled, I'm your daughter from now on. I'll come visit you when I have time. But don't meddle in my business with Harrison anymore. We're not from the same world, and we're not suitable as a couple."

Sigh!

Vincent had so many words to say, but in the end, all that's left was a sigh.
