Roxanne blew her top instantly.
She must have been blind to do business with a douche like Oliver.
She seriously wanted to send Oliver to the moon with a punch.
She retorted without hesitation, "Oliver, so in your eyes, all security guards are just watchdogs, huh?"
"I remember when you were dating Chloe, there was a time when you couldn't find a job and wanted to apply for a security guard position. So, you wanted to be a watchdog then?"
Oliver's face changed, "You're the dog."
"Oh, but weren't you the one who said that security guards are watchdogs?"
She didn't back down, leaving Oliver speechless with a face full of frustration.
Then she took Harrison's arm, stood tall, and told Oliver, "Oliver, every job deserves respect. If my husband really has to work as a security guard, I don't think it's shameful at all. But my husband, despite his business failure, is still a skilled man. He got a job as an IT programmer, which pays quite a lot."
"IT workers are all very proficient in computer languages."
"If such talents are considered simple-minded, then I guess someone as bad at foreign languages and computers as you would be considered an idiot."
No matter how Oliver belittled Harrison, Harrison didn't care.
He was always looking at Roxanne.
When Roxanne kept saying ‘my husband,’ Harrison suddenly realized that he had really become Roxanne's husband.
In less than half a month, Roxanne had changed many of his thoughts and principles.
This woman, who always stood up for his dignity, seemed quite cute.
After giving Oliver a piece of her mind, Roxanne turned to look at Harrison.
Afraid that his dignity was hurt and he was upset, she wanted to comfort him.
But why was Harrison looking at her with such an interesting expression?
"Are you okay?" Roxanne asked.
Harrison replied with a question, "So in your eyes, I'm actually a talent?"
If it were any other girl, they would have beaten him to death. He had promised a car, a house, savings, and a company before marriage, but after marriage, he said the company had gone bankrupt and he was penniless and homeless.
But Roxanne wasn't like that.
Not only did she not despise him, but she even thought he was a talent?
She indeed had a very upright value system.
This was why Harrison admired her.
"Alright." Roxanne let go of his arm, "Don't get too cocky just because I complimented you a bit. Hurry up and catch the subway; don't be late for work."
Harrison smiled, "Yes, ma'am!"
Roxanne watched until Harrison entered the subway station.
Oliver saw it all and was insanely jealous.
Harrison, this poor devil, had nothing. What did Roxanne see in him?
If Roxanne were his mistress, he could buy her all kinds of bags and all kinds of high-end cosmetics; he could even divorce Chloe for her.
In what way was he inferior to this poor wretch, Harrison?
After watching Harrison leave, Roxanne finally turned around. After noticing that Oliver was glowering at her with a twisted face, she knew that he must be up to no good.
She had refused to be his mistress, and he must have held a grudge.
Such a man was really dangerous.
But they were still running the same company together, which was really annoying!
When she got to the office, Roxanne didn't see Chloe.
Today was Monday; Chloe should have come to work, but she didn't show up.
She called Chloe, worried.
"Chloe, is Aria still sick? Or are you sick? I didn't see you at work today."
The sound of Austin crying could be heard on the other end of the phone.
"Baby, don't cry. If you're hungry, Mommy will feed you."
