The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison)

Chapter 140

Rodriguez Group headquarters.

Alexander had a sneaking suspicion someone was bad-mouthing him behind his back.

He sneezed a few times in succession.

Quickly, Alexander pinched his nose.

Just then, Harrison came strolling into Alexander's office and asked, "Caught a cold, have you?"

"Nope, I'm as fit as a fiddle. Never get a cold. It must be Hazel thinking about me."

Alexander remembered what happened in the morning.

The way Hazel clung to him was alluring and tempting. But he didn't give in to her.

Women's sexual desire would amp up after marriage, and men needed to keep up with their needs.

Otherwise, they might be snatched away by other guys.

Of course, Alexander trusted Hazel 100%.

She loved him so much. She was considerate, kind, sensible, and gentle, just a tad bit spoiled

sometimes.

Hazel would never betray him.

"There's something that might tick Hazel off." Harrison said from the doorway.

"You're not sending me on a business trip again, are you?" Alexander frowned.

"Not out of town." Harrison said, "We're going to Valeria. My father's bail hearing is the day after

tomorrow. You know your way around the law. I need you with me."

"What about Mr. Johnson?"

"You're the safer bet. My father's 70 now. I want to bring him back to our country."

"Right, he's getting up there. We should bring him home sooner. I'll let Hazel know and accompany you

to Valeria."

"The flight takes off in three hours."

"That soon?"

The bail hearing for Vincent Rodriguez was the day after tomorrow.

Alexander originally thought he'd be leaving the country tomorrow.

At least he could spend the evening with Hazel. But the flight was going to leave in three hours, just

enough time for him to pack.

Everything else would have to wait. But, President Rodriguez's matter was more pressing. Alexander

had no choice but to let Hazel down again.

Harrison said, "Go home, pack, and let Hazel know."

"Hazel's definitely gonna grumble behind your back again." Alexander picked up his car keys and

phone, stood up, and prepared to head home.

Alexander lived in Bayview Villa.

It was just over a ten-minute drive.

He drove out of the company's underground parking lot.

At Bayview Villa, Hazel was crying her eyes out, looking absolutely pitiful.

But her sister Nora had zero sympathy for her. "Sis, you know how many guys out there would love you

like your husband does? He's just busy with work, but he always tries his best to spend time with you.

Every time you throw a tantrum, he comes over to our place, patiently and gently coaxing you. When

has he ever lost his temper with you? Such a good man. How could you hurt him like this?"

Nora was deeply disappointed.

She was so furious she was shaking. And Hazel was crying so hard she could barely catch her breath.

Yes. Alexander was such a good man.

How could she betray him?

She truly loved Alexander.

She loved him so much that she wanted to spend her life with him. But she couldn't resist temptation.

The guys out there were just too irresistible.

There were some needs he just couldn't fulfil.

One careless mistake, and she couldn't control herself.

Such a thing once was a mistake; ten times was still a mistake.

The more she did it, the more addicted she got.

It was just like doing drugs.

Hazel sobbed to Nora, "Nora, I really love my husband. I only cheated physically. I never thought about

betraying him in my heart."

Hearing this, Nora got even more furious. She was seething, "Hazel, you..."

A surge of anger welled up in Nora's chest. She was having trouble breathing.

Several seconds later, she finally managed to spit out, "Hazel, we Dawsons are cultured. Our parents

are educated. They sent you to a top university abroad. How could they have a shameless daughter

like you?"

Wasn't physical infidelity still infidelity?

She even had the nerve to say she didn't betray him in her heart.

Nora felt a deep sense of shame and guilt for her sister's words.

It was the Dawsons who owed Alexander an apology.

This was truly heartbreaking.

"Nora,I was just fooling around. I never thought about betraying my husband."

"That's enough Hazel. I must tell Alexander about this."

With that, she took out her phone.

Hazel immediately lunged at her and grabbed her phone.

"Give me back my phone."

Hazel held onto the phone tightly.

The two sisters struggled over the phone.

The phone suddenly fell to the ground.

Hazel quickly knelt before Nora.

"Nora, I beg you, you can't tell Alexander about this. If he finds out, I'm done for. I don't want to lose

him; I messed up. I really know I messed up."

"If you don't want others to find out, you shouldn't have done it."

"Nora, I'll change. I promise I'll be faithful to Alexander from now on; I won't go looking for other guys."

"You're thinking about a next time?"

"No, there won't be a next time, absolutely no next time."

Hazel knelt on the floor, clinging onto Nora's legs, crying her heart out.

Slowly, Nora also closed her eyes.

Tears silently rolled down her cheeks.

She wished so much for her sister and Alexander to be happily in love without this kind of betrayal.

She was torn.

If she didn't tell Alexander, she would feel guilty and uneasy. But if she did tell Alexander, her sister's

marriage would truly be over.

While the two sisters were distracted, the guy standing by quickly made a run for it.

"Hold it." Nora quickly shouted.

The guy got scared and tightened his grip on the check for half a million dollars.

Would they demand the money back?

The guy quickly stuffed the check into his pocket, fearing Nora would see it and want it back.

After all, he was the one who ruined her sister's marriage.

Nora glared at him and said, "Give me your ID."

"What are you gonna do?"

"Your ID!"

Nora planned to cut off ties between the guy and her sister to save her sister's marriage to Alexander.

But the guy was not playing nice.

With a few moves like a neck chop, a throat lock, and a knee strike, Nora had him pinned to the

ground.

She snatched his bag, rummaging for his ID.

"I'm keeping your ID here. You need to leave. The farther, the better."

Later, she would deal with this man.

Now, she needed to give her shameless sister a good scolding.

She didn't have time for this guy.

The guy was preparing to sneak away.

Just then, the elevator bell rang, and the villa's entrance elevator stopped at the living room entrance.

When the door opened, a suited-up Alexander stepped out, which scared the guy so much that he

almost wet his pants.

As he walked with large strides, Alexander's nearly shaved head made him look even more tough and

handsome. However, this tough and handsome-looking man was a very gentle husband who loved his

wife dearly.

Seeing everyone, he said curiously, "Nora, you're still here. Who is this gentleman...?"

Alexander's gaze fell on the guy.

The guy tensed up.

Would he be exposed?

Would he get beaten up?

Hazel was even kneeling on the ground, begging Nora with her eyes not to tell Alexander.

Seeing his wife kneeling on the ground, crying, Alexander hurriedly helped her up.

"Hazel, why are you kneeling on the ground?"

Nora said, "Just now my mom called to say that a relative we were close to when we were kids has

died. My sister couldn't handle the shock and collapsed."

Alexander quickly helped his wife to the sofa and comforted her.

After thinking it over, Nora decided to give Hazel another chance for the sake of preserving her

marriage.

"He's a friend of mine. We came together. We'll be leaving now."

Alexander was solely focused on comforting his wife and didn't notice anything unusual.

Nora hurriedly dragged Hazel's boyfriend out.

Alexander didn't even get up to see them off, just focusing on wiping Hazel's tears.

As he wiped her tears, he pulled her into his arms and comforted her.

Seeing Hazel still crying, Alexander's heart was about to break.

Alexander knew women best.

When a woman cried, a man should do nothing but hold her gently and lovingly, let her feel the love

and tenderness, as well as a strong sense of security.

Then a woman's mood would slowly improve.

Every time Hazel cried in the past, Alexander would hold her like this.

The more he held her, the more guilty Hazel felt, and her crying became more intense.

She couldn't stop her tears.

Alexander was so good, she really shouldn't betray him.

She was a bad woman.

"Darling, don't cry anymore. It will hurt your body."

He made faces and weird gestures at Hazel, trying to cheer her up. He was willing to do anything as

long as he could make Hazel happy. He completely forgot that he had come home to get his luggage,

to say goodbye to Hazel, and Harrison had entrusted him with the important task.

Half an hour later, Harrison called.

Hazel also heard Harrison urging him to catch the flight.

Alexander simply said, "Harrison, I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you to Valeria. For President

Rodriguez, please remind Mr. Johnson to pay attention. For the judicial issues, we'll communicate over

the phone."

"What's going on?" Harrison sounded a bit dissatisfied on the phone.

Hazel sniffled and said, "You go, don't let me affect your work."

She felt she had to be a considerate good wife.

She couldn't be capricious like before.

After persuading Alexander for a while, knowing it was about Vincent, she supported him to go to the

airport even more.

Alexander saw that her mood seemed to have improved a bit.

Considering that Vincent's matter was indeed very important, he began to pack his luggage.

Before leaving the house, Alexander hugged Hazel tightly for several minutes, then reluctantly let go

and left.

Hazel made a vow in her heart. She must return to her family, cut off all contact with other men, and

love Alexander wholeheartedly. If she was ever to betray Alexander again, let her be hit by a car.

...

On the way to the airport.

Harrison was sitting in the Rolls-Royce driven by Anthony.

On the road, he finally had time to call Roxanne.

Roxanne, who answered the call, was a bit surprised as she said, "You're going to catch a flight now.

Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

"Sorry, it's a bit urgent." Harrison felt a bit guilty, "I'll be back as soon as I finish my business."

"I'll go to the airport to see you off."

"No need, you do your own thing; don't let it affect your work."

"It's okay, I want to see you off."

"Really no need."

"Don't you want me to see you off?"

"Of course I do." Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

"That's good; you're on the way to the airport now? I'll drive to the airport now. Tell me which terminal."

"I'm just worried that you'll drive too recklessly, and it won't be safe."

"I've been driving for eight years, and there's nothing to worry about. When Aria disappeared, I ran red

lights all the way, and nothing happened."

She almost forgot that there were still a lot of traffic fines to deal with at that time.

"You're really proud of yourself?"

"Wait for me; I'll be right there."

"Don't worry, the flight is delayed by an hour."

Actually, the flight was not delayed. It was taking off in forty minutes. But this time, he and Alexander

were taking their own business jet to Valeria.

He could apply for another hour delay with air traffic control for the flight departure time so that

Roxanne could drive a bit slower to the airport, not rush and cause any accidents.

Originally, Roxanne was supposed to arrive at the airport twenty minutes later than Harrison.

However, she drove really fast and almost arrived at the same time as Harrison.

When she got to the airport, she was calling Harrison when she saw him pulling his suitcase into

Terminal 2.

She quickly chased after him and yelled, "Harrison, wait!"

Hearing his wife's voice, Harrison stopped. He turned around and looked back.

This woman really did drive like a maniac.

She was here already?!

Harrison was caught off guard.

Alexander, who was with him, was also in a panic, "Harrison, what should we do? Your wife knows me.

Will she blow our cover?"

"Let's get out of here," Harrison said quietly, his brow furrowed.

Alexander snapped out of it. But when he wanted to distance himself from Harrison, Roxanne had

already run over.

She stopped in front of Harrison, panting heavily.

"Let's sit in the airport cafe. I'll leave twenty minutes before your boarding time."

"Alright." Harrison held her hand.

As they were about to enter the airport, Roxanne spotted Alexander three meters away from them.

"Mr. Alexander?" she said.

She pulled Harrison towards Alexander.

Although Alexander heard Roxanne's voice, he didn't stop.

He seemed a bit nervous, pulling his suitcase and trying to hide ahead.

Roxanne kept dragging Harrison, chasing after Alexander.

Finally, she got in front of Alexander and said in surprise, "Mr. Alexander, why are you running?"

"Ms. Martinez!" Alexander pretended to be surprised, "What a coincidence, we meet again."

They chatted for a while.

Roxanne introduced Harrison to Alexander, "Mr. Alexander, this is my husband, Harrison."

Does he need an introduction?

Alexander looked a little uneasy, his back stiff.

But he still had to pretend not to know Harrison.

Roxanne then introduced Alexander to Harrison, "Harrison, this is the Mr. Alexander I told you about,

the one who helped Chloe Mitchell. He's a major shareholder of Rodriguez Group, but he's different

from the other big bosses. Mr. Alexander is very down-to-earth and not snobbish at all. The last time I

was selling goods at a stall, Mr. Alexander bought a lot of women's clothes, bags, and shoes from me

as employee benefits. Do you remember?"

Harrison pretended to recall, thought for a moment, and said, "I think I have some memory of it."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Rodriguez." Alexander extended his hand, indicating that he wanted to shake

hands with Harrison.
