Chapter 95
Watching him knitted his brows, Roxanne asked tentatively, "Don''t you have time tomorrow? It''s the
weekend."
Harrison, being a master at spinning tales, started to make up an excuse again, "I have to work
overtime at thepany tomorrow."
"That''s fine, workes first," Roxanne understood. "You go do your job. The house isn''t going
anywhere, and we can check it when you have some free time. Then we can pick another day to move
in, alright?"
"I''ll definitely make time on the day we move," Harrison responded.
The next day, Harrison wore the two-hundred-dor-plus suit Roxanne had customized for him, and
had a meeting with the city''s top executive. Before the meeting, Alexander scoffed at him, "Harrison,
you''re not exactly a nobody. Don''t you feel it hurts your dignity to wear these cheap suits your wife got
for you every day?"
"This suit is worth over two hundred dors," Harrison replied coldly. "I do not feel it hurts my dignity to
wear it."
"Right, anything bought by your wife is the best. I can see you won''t get tired of wearing it no matter
what," Alexander answered.
"Is everything ready?" Harrison asked.
"Don''t worry, the bodyguards will protect you at all times," Alexander assured.

That day, Roxanne was set out to inspect the new house. She was in high spirits. The sky seemed
bluer than ever, and the sunlight was particrly bright. Maybe because she was in a good mood,
everything seemed beautiful.
Roxanne, apanied by Chloe, went to inspect the new house. As they were about to cut the ribbon,
Chloe pulled Roxanne aside, "Anne, I heard that the president of the Rodriguez Group is here for the
ribbon-cutting. Do you want to go take a peek? Maybe he''s a handsome and charming man?"
"Don''t be ridiculous," Roxanne said dismissively. "How can such important presidents be good-looking.
Don''t look at them being so rich, but they are so busy everyday that they are either bald, fat, or wearing
sses. Have you seen any important presidents in this country that are good looking?"
While they were walking, Chloe kept talking, "He''s only 32. It can''t be that bad. Anne, without this
president of Rodriguez Group, your house wouldn''t bepleted by now. Don''t you want to meet this
person who did you such a big favor?"
"What''s there to see? Harrison is handsome enough. I don''t need to go checking out other men,"
Roxanne replied.
Harrison was cutting the ribbon on the red carpet. He looked dashing, his presence overshadowing
everyone else at the event. Despite all the media taking photos, Alexander had made arrangements for
Harrison''s pictures not to be published in public media. That was the agreement the Rodriguez Group
had with the media over the years.
The bodyguards were on high alert at all times. The bald leader of the bodyguards was giving
instructions through his walkie-talkie. "All of you, keep your eyes peeled. If you see Ms. Martinez,
report to me immediately. We absolutely cannot let Ms. Martinez bump into Mr. Harrison during the
ribbon-cutting."
Every bodyguard knew what Roxanne looked like. But Roxanne had no idea that she was, at that
moment, the wife of a rich man. When she and Chloe passed by the crowded ribbon-cutting ceremony,
the bodyguards spotted her. They all started sweating bullets.
They were worried she would join the crowd and see Mr. Harrison like everyone else.
But Roxanne had no interest in the ribbon-cutting ceremony. All she cared about at the moment was
her new house. She was eager to see what the brand new house that the developer had renovated for
her looked like.
Chloe nudged her arm lightly, "Anne, look, that bald guy is Mr. Alexander''s bodyguard. What is he
doing here?"
Roxanne took a nce. Indeed, it was Alexander''s bald bodyguard.
"Could it be that Mr. Alexander is the president of Rodriguez Group?" Chloe asked.
"He might have something to do with the Rodriguez Group. Let''s go, I don''t want to be a rubbernecker
anymore. I''m more interested in my new house," Roxanne replied.
She was very anxious. This was her first house in her life. From now on, she wouldn''t need to pay rent
and could finally have a home of her own. She no longer needed to worry aboutndlords not renting to
her or having to find a new ce if the building got demolished.
In order to buy this house in Seraphim Haven, she had been saving and working hard for over a
decade. Finally, she could have a home.
She pulled Chloe in the direction of the house, walking briskly. When they reached the 11th floor, Chloe
looked around.
"Anne, why is your front door so luxurious, even with a doormat. But all the other houses are still bare
shells."
"I forgot to tell you, I won the grand prize from the developer. They decorated the house for me and
even gave me a set of furniture."
"You''re so lucky. Even the door has a password lock."
"Yeah, I really am lucky."
Ever since she married Harrison, her luck seemed to be on a constant rise. No, Harrison was her lucky
star, bringing her good fortune time and again.
When they entered, Chloe was taken aback by the luxurious decoration. "Whoa, Anne, open kitchen,
this set of kitchen appliances and range hood must have cost a fortune, I''ve seen them before."
"Really, is it that expensive?" Roxanne went up to take a closer look. Indeed, they were all famous
brands.
"Anne, there''s even a dishwasher, this set must note cheap either."
They moved onto the living room from the kitchen. The luxurious sofa was very eye-catching. There
were also bedding in the bedroom. Chloe looked at them one by one and saw that they were all from
famous brands. Even the smart toilets in the two bathrooms cost over ten thousand each. Chloe had
experience with house decoration, so she knew these things well.
They went through the entire house, discussing along the way.
"Anne, what kind of luck is this? You can move in with just a suitcase." Roxanne opened the shoe
cab, and it was even more of a surprise. "Can''t be, they even prepared slippers."
What kind of generous developer was this? Not only did they give expensive kitchen appliances worth
tens of thousands, but they also threw in slippers in the shoe cab. How considerate could they be?
Just then, Harrison showed up at the door.
"Huh?" Roxanne looked over, "Harrison, what are you doing here? Didn''t you say you had to work
overtime?"
Harrison walked in, "I was rushing to the office when they notified us that we do not have to work
overtime."
"How did you know our new apartment was on this floor of the building?"
Harrison lied: "I saw you guys downstairs but couldn''t catch up. Then I saw you stop on the 11th floor,
so after I answered a phone call, I came up. This is the only luxury apartment on this floor and the door
was open."
Chloe said, "Harrison, your ce is ridiculously fancy. The developer sure is a big spender. You should
check out your new ce."
Harrison pretended to look around. Then he returned to the living room and asked Roxanne, "Do you
like the decor and furniture?"
"I do like it, but didn''t Chloe say that the kitchen set costs tens of thousands?"
Chloe made a mistake. That kitchen set costs more than just tens of thousands; it was actually
hundreds of thousands. Harrison, who chose it himself, went over, pretended to take a look and then
nodded, "Yeah, it seems like it should be worth tens of thousands."
Roxanne eximed, "Isn''t the developer being a bit too generous? Even if they''re offering luxury
decoration, they don''t have to spend money like water. With all this investment, wouldn''t they be
running at a loss?"
Once again used of being too generous, Harrison''s expression suddenly turned sour.
