The Windfalls of Love (Roxanne and Harrison)

Chapter 58

Roxanne stated firmly, "Harrison just happens to share the same surname with the Rodriguez family,

that's all."

Nonetheless, she was extremely grateful to the mega-rich Rodriguez Group.

Without the Rodriguez Group, the unfinished building she bought might never have been delivered.

"But," she added, "I think the decision-maker behind the Rodriguez Group might be a bit of a duffer.

They're talking about buying a project that's going to lose a ton of money, and I think they might be a bit

off their rocker."

Chloe chimed in and said, "I agree. Why would such a big group want to buy an unfinished building

from a small developer? The boss must be really ditsy."

Rodriguez Group.

In the CEO's office on the 89th floor.

Harrison was busy working out the details for Roxanne's building.

Because he was in a rush, he only had pasta for lunch.

Just after finishing his pasta, he sneezed several times in a row.

Alexander quickly covered his own pasta.

To please his daughter-in-law, Harrison made him work overtime and eat such a simple lunch.

Alexander, watching Harrison, who sneezed seven times in a row, teased, "Is someone badmouthing

you behind your back?"

Harrison looked at Alexander and asked, "Have you finished eating?"

Alexander shook his head, "No."

"Then stop eating. We need to continue discussing this building project." Harrison grabbed Alexander's

food and threw it into the trash.

With a bitter face, Alexander said, "Harrison, you don't have to be like this just to get your wife's house

finished sooner. Are you not even letting me finish my pasta?"

On the other end, Roxanne stirred her food with a fork.

Too greasy, she couldn't eat it.

She took a couple of bites and put down her fork.

Chloe quickly asked, "Why did you only eat a few bites and stop? Your house is about to be delivered.

You should be in a good mood and have a big appetite?"

"I can't eat it, I feel nauseous, and I want to vomit." Roxanne quickly grabbed an orange and peeled it.

Watching her eat the orange, Chloe smiled, "Anne, don't tell me you're pregnant?"

Roxanne glared at Chloe, "What are you blabbering about? Harrison and I haven't done anything yet.

How could I be pregnant? I just thought today's lunch was too greasy and wanted something sour."

Chloe said, "You guys have been married for a month and haven't done it yet. It's killing me. Don't you

have any interest in sex? Anne, sometimes I really want to ask you, don't you have any physical

needs?"

After finishing an orange, Roxanne candidly said, "I do have physical needs."

"So when you see such a handsome guy like Harrison, don't you ever think about doing it with him?"

Chloe said in confusion, "And you guys are legally married."

Roxanne knocked on Chloe's head, "I'm not the type to want to do it with a hot guy as soon as I see

one. There's no emotional foundation. Why don't you try it?"

"But you're already twenty-eight years old." Chloe said, "You're almost thirty, the age when you need a

man the most."

After finishing one orange, Roxanne started peeling a second one, "Your thinking is the same as

Harrison's. On our wedding day, he said the same thing. He also very clearly told me that we won't

sleep together, he can't satisfy my sexual needs, and he asked me to think it through."

Chloe asked curiously, "Really? Does your Harrison have any problems in that area?"

Roxanne lightly knocked on Chloe's head, "You always love to gossip. I can assure you Harrison has

no problem in that area. He's had that kind of reaction to me, and he's been very honest about it. He

wanted to kiss me. But he said that was just his instinct as a man, not because he liked me."

Chloe shook her head, "I really don't understand you two."

Roxanne spoke seriously, "You don't understand. Harrison and I are the kind of people who have

emotional cleanliness. If it's not because of true love, we won't have sex."

In fact, Roxanne was already understanding Harrison.

At least she knew that he was very loyal in terms of emotions and maintained his integrity.

This kind of man was a rare good man.

She thought that one day, in the future, she should fall in love with Harrison.

Thinking about the future, the corners of her mouth turned upwards slightly.

However, her requirements for love were high. Ordinary actions could hardly move her.

She was very clear.

She knew she couldn't easily give her true heart.

It was okay for her to live with Harrison, but to give her true heart, she must be careful.

Chloe also understood her, "I think you two who have emotional cleanliness won't fall in love easily. But

it's okay. Others fall in love before getting married. You two got married first and then have plenty of

time to fall in love. That's also good."

That day, because East Adjacent Estates was acquired by the Rodriguez Group, and the house could

be delivered soon, Roxanne returned home early in the morning.

Today, she didn't plan to set up a stall anymore.

She planned to make a hearty dinner to celebrate with her family.

So, she also called Vincent.

She heard from Vincent that although they were farmers, their fields were all in Seraphim Haven, which

was very close.

Vincent rushed over that afternoon.

Roxanne made a table of delicious food, and when Harrison came home, she was still busy in the

kitchen.

Vincent helped bring out a dish and saw Harrison, who just came in.

Harrison frowned, "Dad, didn't you say you wouldn't come here again? Why are you here again?"

Vincent shot back, "Harrison, didn't you say Roxanne is just your wife in name? You'd help her with

small stuff, but you wouldn't invest millions in her, right? But today, I saw the headline about you

acquiring East Adjacent Estates. Have you started falling for Roxanne, buying that estate so she

wouldn't be upset about housing?"

Harrison kicked off his shoes, walking in, "You're overthinking. If she has a house, she won't need to

haggle at flea markets anymore, and I won't have to waste time following her there." Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Vincent chuckled, "That's gotta be your excuse."

Harrison shrugged, "Think what you want." He then went to help in the kitchen.

"Why are you cooking so much today?" Seeing that Roxanne's dishes were almost done, he quickly

passed her a plate.

"We've got something to celebrate."

As Roxanne served the last dish, she called everyone to the table.

Harrison picked up his fork, ready to taste her cooking.

In all their time married, he'd never realized she could cook such delights.

However, Roxanne stopped him, "You should wash your hands first. You always start eating without

washing. Don't you have any hygiene?"

Vincent snickered on the side.

They were starting to act more like a real married couple.

Hanging around Roxanne, Harrison wasn't as uptight anymore.

When he previously dined at home, he always waited for the servants to set up all the utensils, soup,

and wine before starting.

He never ate without washing his hands first.

It must be because Roxanne's cooking smelled so good. Harrison just couldn't help himself, right?

During the meal, Roxanne mentioned the acquisition of East Adjacent Estates by the Rodriguez Group

and that they'd be moving in two months.

Then, she said, "Dad, Harrison, once we finish decorating, we can move in. Then we'll have our own

home. We should really thank Rodriguez Group."

Harrison calmly continued eating.

When Rodriguez Group was mentioned, he played it cool.

Vincent was happy, praising, "That's fantastic! Whoever acquired that failed project is a real saint."

Roxanne continued, "He is indeed a good guy, solving the plight of two thousand homeowners.

However, I noticed the decision-maker of Rodriguez Group seems a bit off. He dared to take on a

project that could result in huge losses. I really don't know what he's thinking. Maybe he's a bit nuts."

Vincent was sipping his soup, almost choked upon hearing this. He looked across at Harrison, whose

face had turned quite grim.
