The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison) novel Chapter 262

Roxanne's gaze wavered.

Just as she steadied herself, Dominic, who had just parked his car, walked around the front and approached.

Upon seeing Dominic, a sense of unease washed over Vincent.

Could this child be Dominic's?

But it couldn't be.

Vincent was always the first to know things. He knew about his son's plans to reconcile with Roxanne.

The young couple had been all set for their reunion.

But then Nora's predicament happened.

Despite Vincent's advice to Harrison that he didn't need to marry Nora to make amends, Harrison was adamant.

The potential for Roxanne and Harrison to reconcile just faded away.

Vincent found himself unable to face Roxanne.

If it hadn't been for his visit to the hospital today to see a friend undergoing surgery, he wouldn't have known Roxanne was pregnant.

By his calculations, this child could very well be Harrison's.

Ignoring Dominic's presence, and disregarding courtesy, he stared at Roxanne's belly, unable to tear his eyes away.

"Roxanne, you're eight months along now, aren't you? Due any day?"

The baby had always been on the larger side.

At seven months, Roxanne certainly looked ready to give birth.

Roxanne didn't know how to face Vincent and remained silent.

Vincent was increasingly certain that this was a Rodriguez descendant, his own grandchild.

No, his granddaughter.

Surely a chubby and adorable little granddaughter.

He trusted Roxanne, knowing she wouldn't jump into bed with another man right after ending a relationship.

It was just impossible!

Vincent couldn't contain his joy, "Roxanne, did you keep Harrison's child?"

He had only learned of Roxanne's pregnancy after Harrison had arranged for an abortion.

By the time he knew, it was too late.

That was why his hair had turned more silver.

"Roxanne, this is Harrison's child, isn't it?"

Dominic drove on, speaking objectively, "Roxanne, Harrison isn't as heartless as you think. The baby's almost due, he won't ask you to terminate the pregnancy. Besides, it's a risky procedure. He wouldn't put you in danger. If he was that kind of man, he wouldn't have let Nora take the fall for you."

She considered this, and it made sense.

Dominic had his own worries, and he glanced at her anxiously.

"Roxanne, if Harrison finds out you kept the baby and he wants to get back together, what will you do?"

Truthfully, she no longer hated Harrison.

But not hating him didn't mean she would go back to him.

That was utterly impossible.

Roxanne was firm, "I can't reconcile with him."

Dominic let out a sigh of relief.

At around seven in the evening, Roxanne received a call from FedEx.

Her online purchase of baby supplies and a maternity package had arrived.

Because of her condition, she asked the delivery man to help bring the packages upstairs.

When the doorbell rang, she opened the door to find a well-dressed Harrison standing in the hallway.

Harrison's eyes, filled with a complex mix of emotions, became even more conflicted upon seeing her prominent belly, and he was suddenly overwhelmed.
