The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison)

Chapter 169

It was raining cats and dogs.

Raindrops were splattering on the umbrella.

Under the umbrella, Hazel's eyes were filled with cold sarcasm. She was having a rough time. So she

was going to make everyone pay for her misery.

If only Harrison would speak up, he could convince Alexander to take her back.

If only Alexander would give her another chance, she could start over, go back to the good old days,

being lovey-dovey with Alexander.

But Harrison and Alexander didn't give her this chance. They pushed her down the wrong path.

It wasn't her fault.

She was going to spill all of Harrison's beans, let Roxanne know everything, break their trust, break

their marriage. She wouldn't let anyone off the hook.

"Mrs. Rodriguez, we have a lot to talk about. How about we go sit in your car and chat?" Hazel was

such a pain in the ass.

Thinking about her betraying Mr. Alexander and having secret rendezvous with other men, Roxanne

felt sick to her stomach.

This kind of dirty person didn't deserve to sit in her car.

"Sorry, I just had my car cleaned."

"Are you saying I'm dirty?"

"You realize you're dirty?"

Roxanne hated people who cheated on their marriages, regardless of gender.

Roxanne planned to ignore this disgusting woman in front of her.

She folded her umbrella, ready to get into the driver's seat.

At this moment, Hazel grabbed her and said, "Didn't anyone teach you about respecting people? I'm

not done talking yet."

If she didn't ruin Roxanne and Harrison's marriage today, she wouldn't be Hazel.

"And you, who sleeps with other men, cheating on your marriage, cheating on your husband, you

deserve respect?" Roxanne disdainfully shook off Hazel's hand and specifically took out a tissue from

the car to wipe her hand. "So dirty!"

"You..." Hazel was so angry that she turned pale, almost forgetting why she came to find Roxanne.

"Hazel?"

At this time, a male voice rang.

The wrist of Hazel holding the umbrella was pulled back by a strong arm.

She turned her head to look, she didn't know the man. But Roxanne recognized him.

That was Dominic, her ex-boyfriend.

Ever since Aria was found last time, she and Dominic hadn't seen each other.

Dominic pulled Hazel away hurriedly and said, "Who are you? What are you doing? Let me go. If you

don't let me go, I'm going to call the cops."

Hazel struggled a few times and was let go by Dominic.

Then, Dominic threw a few photos in her face.

The photos fell in the rain.

Hazel looked down; her face turned green, then pale.

The photos on the ground were of her and different men in hotel rooms.

Obviously, she was not wearing anything.

And in the photos, she was wild, completely different from her gentle appearance.

All her secrets were exposed, and Hazel was both ashamed and angry.

She stared at Dominic, "Where did you get these photos?"

"If you don't want people to know, don't do it." Dominic said lightly.

Hazel panicked.

She was at a loss as she asked, "What do you want? You want money?"

Dominic said, "If you keep quiet, these photos won't be public. Otherwise, you will become the focus of

attention in Seraphim Haven, even on the whole internet."

Hazel understood more than anyone else.

Once these photos were exposed, she would become the laughing stock on the internet.

That would be utterly humiliating.

Although she divorced Alexander and was kicked out by her parents, not many people knew about it.

Her parents still left her some dignity.

Even though Alexander divorced her, they only announced it as a peaceful divorce.

Her scandal was not made public.

In the eyes of outsiders, she was still the daughter of the Dawson family, who enjoyed an excellent

reputation in social circles.

If these photos were exposed, her reputation would be ruined.

She would not be able to lift her head in the social circle of Seraphim Haven.

No, she couldn't let this happen.

Hazel glanced at Roxanne, who was still standing by the car door, holding an umbrella, looking at her.

This time, she had to keep quiet.

She was unwilling. She stared at Dominic and asked, "Why should I believe you? What if I stop

bothering her, and you still post these photos on the internet? What should I do?"

"Do you think you have a choice?" Dominic's tone was still cold.

Hazel couldn't deal with him.

With no choice, she had to compromise and said, "Fine, I agree."

"To alleviate Roxanne's suspicion, go and say a few words to her now. Follow my instructions." Dominic

gave a few instructions.

Hazel obediently returned to Roxanne.

This time, her attitude became humble, no more cold sarcasm.

Hazel, holding her umbrella, said, "Mrs. Rodriguez, I heard that your husband Harrison has a relative

who is a high-ranking official in the provincial government. I have something I want him to help with.

Could your husband introduce him to me?"

Roxanne knew that Harrison had an uncle who was a high-ranking official in the provincial government.

The last time she had trouble at the Bureau of Industry and Commerce, it was this relative who helped

to solve it.

Hazel knew this too?

For these rich people, it should be easy to find out these relationships, right?

But Roxanne didn't plan to help her.

First, she didn't want Harrison to ask for favors.

Second, Hazel didn't deserve it.

"You came to me for this?" Roxanne asked.

"Yes."

"Forget it; there's no way I'm helping you."

With the task completed, Hazel glanced at Dominic.

Dominic gave her a satisfied look, and Hazel left in a huff.

Then, Dominic came back to Roxanne under his umbrella.

The person he missed was right in front of him.

But because she was already married to Harrison, they had a clear boundary.

She was so close to him, yet so far away.

Dominic tried to control his pain and said expressionlessly, "Long time no see!"

If it wasn't for that accident, Roxanne would never have ended up tying the knot with Harrison. He

would have settled down with Roxanne a long time ago. Their kid might've been around the same age

as Aria by now.

Dominic was filled with resentment.

But what could he do?

The one hoping she could recover from her pain and find happiness again was him.

The one wishing she would never belong to any other man was also him.

Dominic was troubled. He even thought he was being ridiculous himself. However, facing his Roxanne,

Dominic's inner turmoil was completely invisible.

Roxanne had long cut ties with Dominic. She had made up her mind during her journey to Marientown,

facing the desolate wilderness, attacked by wolves, and experiencing life and death.

She decided to live her life for herself and not place so much importance on men.

Once someone insignificant was out of her life, she would never have any emotions for him.

So, Roxanne was quite cold towards Dominic.

She casually asked, "Do you also know Hazel?"

Dominic lied, "After Mr. Alexander divorced Hazel, there were some disputes. I was entrusted by Mr.

Alexander to negotiate with Hazel."

Roxanne said, "All right, I have things to do. I'll go first."

She then got into her car.

Seeing her dressed lightly, Dominic reminded her, "Roxanne, although the winter along the coast has

higher temperatures, the wind is strong, especially on rainy days. You should wear more to avoid

catching a cold."

Roxanne replied, "Even if I catch a cold, it seems to have nothing to do with you."

She started the car and drove away, leaving Dominic feeling uncomfortable in the rain, facing the cold

wind, feeling like he had been frozen.

After Roxanne's car was out of sight, Harrison's Rolls Royce stopped in front of Dominic.

The car window rolled down.

With a frown, Harrison slightly lifted his eyes and said, "My wife is already far away, and you're still so

reluctant to let her go? Don't forget, she is my wife."

Dominic went around the tail of the car, opened the door from the other side, and got in, "I helped you

solve a big problem. Shouldn't you thank me?"

"I thank you. But you shouldn't always be looking at my wife." Harrison didn't like the way Dominic

looked at Roxanne.

Even though Dominic had already restrained himself, Harrison still felt a bit of jealousy.

Who would like their wife to be deeply imprinted in another man's heart?

"Let's get back to the point." Dominic got down to business, "After you confess your identity to

Roxanne, if she gets angry, no matter what, you must cheer her up."

Harrison frowned, "I don't need your advice."

"Can't you talk to me properly?" Dominic glared at Harrison, "If you can't, I'll go and tell Roxanne now

about the real purpose of Hazel looking for her."

Harrison said indifferently, "You won't."

No one wished for Roxanne's happiness more than Dominic.

Dominic wouldn't disrupt Roxanne's peaceful life now.

Dominic was uncomfortable as he said, "I'm being tightly restrained by you."

Harrison said again, "Also, telling my wife to wear more clothes in the rain, I can do it myself. I don't

need you to worry about it."

"Were you listening just now?" Dominic frowned.

Harrison's face was gloomy, "You go find your own wife to care about, don't care about people you

shouldn't."

Dominic said, "Harrison, do you need to remind me in every sentence that Roxanne is your wife?"

"Isn't she my wife?" Harrison had a gloomy expression.

Dominic snorted, "Next time you need help, don't ask me for it."

"Don't worry, I'll still ask you next time." Harrison had a deep understanding of Dominic.

The driver, Anthony, sitting in the driver's seat, laughed to himself.

These two men, one was the richest man in Seraphim Haven, the CEO of Rodriguez Group, the other

was a renowned hacker both domestically and internationally, known as the Y God. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

After becoming love rivals, were these two men really so childish and cute?

That night.

Roxanne, Harrison, and Vincent were having dinner.

Roxanne was chatting with the two.

"Harrison, today Mr. Alexander's ex-wife suddenly came to find me and called me Mrs. Rodriguez. I

was very confused. How did I suddenly become Mrs. Rodriguez? It turns out Hazel wanted to find your

relative in the provincial government and asked me for help."

Harrison pretended not to know. His movements with the fork and knife stopped, his eyebrows slightly

furrowed.

"How did she know that my dad's cousin is a high-ranking official in the provincial government?"

Roxanne said while eating, "Who knows? So he's your dad's cousin. I thought he was your dad's

brother."

Vincent, who was scooping soup, also joined in, "Harrison does have a relative who is a high-ranking

official in the provincial government. We usually have little contact. Also, he's a high-ranking official,

and our social statuses are very different. We were afraid of bothering him."

"That's true. Technically, after he helped me solve the troubles with the Bureau of Industry and

Commerce last time, I should thank him properly. But if I go to his house with a gift to thank him, I'm

afraid people will think I'm trying to please him. This relationship is really hard to handle."

Roxanne nodded in agreement.

After drinking his soup, Vincent said, "Anne, don't worry about this. Harrison told me about asking him

for help last time. I've already sent some chickens and ducks that I raised myself to thank him."

Nowadays, even Vincent, who's not good at lying, has become very proficient at it.

Vincent and Harrison looked at each other.

Seeing that Roxanne no longer doubted the matter of Hazel looking for her, they both breathed a sigh

of relief.

After the onset of winter in Seraphim Haven, it rained continuously for several days.

The rain was not heavy, but coupled with the sea breeze along the coast, it was extremely cold.

After being threatened by Dominic, Hazel backed off. She didn't dare to spill the beans about Harrison's

real identity to Roxanne anymore.

But to get back to Alexander, she tried every trick in the book, ending up resorting to being a total pain

in the ass.

She intentionally stood outside Alexander's mansion, soaking wet in the rain all night long.

Alexander barely slept the entire night.

In the early morning.

He pulled back the curtains.

Hazel, in the drizzling rain, wearing flimsy clothes, looked like she would drop at the faintest breeze.

Her act of playing the victim disgusted Alexander big time.

But after all, she was his first and only woman.

Alexander dressed up and went downstairs.

Seeing Alexander coming towards her with an umbrella, Hazel intentionally fell down in the rain.

A smirk surfaced on her face, thinking he had finally softened up.

As long as Alexander softened up, going back to him would be possible.

But it wasn't that Alexander softened up. He just had a conscience, still remembering their once marital

bond.

He walked up to Hazel, holding the umbrella.

After enduring the rain all night and a sleepless night, Hazel looked tired and haggard.

Her tears would make any man's heart bleed, "Darling, have you finally decided to come down and see

me? If you don't forgive me, I'd rather die."

Alexander stood coldly in front of her, looking down, "First, I'm no longer your husband. Secondly, if you

want to end your life, do it somewhere else. Don't disrupt my life."

Hazel's crying became louder. "Are you really going to be so heartless to me?"

"Hazel, what will it take for you to leave me alone? Stop haunting me like a ghost?"

Every encounter with Hazel was like rubbing salt into his wound.

Every time he saw her, Alexander would be reminded of her betrayal.

He wanted to forget the past and start a new future.

Was it really that hard?

Hazel slowly got up from the ground, and while sobbing, she said, "I also want to know, what does it

take for you to forgive me? I know with your status and position at Seraphim Haven, you can find a new

partner anytime. But can a new partner be as good as your original wife? Do you remember you once

said you only need one woman in your life?"

"You're overestimating yourself." Alexander responded with a cold laugh.

Though the original partner was good, he didn't need her anymore.

Hazel firmly said, "I don't care. There's no other woman by your side anyway. Even if there was, with

me, your ex-wife around, you can't be with her."

"I didn't realize before that you could be so shameless."

"If it means getting back to you, what's wrong with being shameless? Dignity doesn't mean that much

compared to you."

Alexander didn't want to argue with her anymore. He called Nora Dawson.

After Nora rushed over, she kept apologizing to Alexander, "I'm sorry my sister bothered you again. I'll

take her away."

"I'm no longer her husband." Alexander said politely, "But if you or your parents need any help, I'm

willing to assist as her ex-husband. As for your sister's matters, I won't involve myself anymore."

Alexander gave Hazel a cold look, then turned and left.

Nora grabbed Hazel, who was about to chase, "Hazel, have you no shame? Come with me. Stop

making a fool of yourself here."

Two days later.

The rain in Seraphim Haven still hadn't stopped.

Chloe, because Aria was being bullied at school and couldn't find anyone to help, turned to Alexander.

She stood in the open-air parking lot of the Rodriguez Group, spotting Alexander's Rolls-Royce.

Alexander got out of the car, gentlemanly helping her open the car door, "Chloe, get in, let's find a place

to talk."

Chloe was in a hurry.

If not for her child being wronged and needed to transfer school immediately, she wouldn't have sought

Alexander.

Standing in front of the car, she quickly explained her situation.

After listening, Alexander immediately responded, "No problem, I'll do my best to help Aria transfer

schools, but I need your help with something too."

Chloe was somewhat confused.

She didn't understand why a man of Alexander's status and position would need help from a divorced

woman with a child.

"Please tell me, as long as I can help, I definitely will." Chloe agreed without hesitation.

Alexander cut to the chase, "Would you be my girlfriend?"

What?

Chloe was dumbstruck on the spot.
