Chapter 31~ A date
"From now on, she's my responsibility." Henry's words kept playing in Roxanne's mind and her face turned from pearl-white to pink. That was hot! Roxanne didn't need anyone to take care of her. Heck, she could handle Maya and Miriam but hearing Henry stand up for her had her heart racing like horses in a race. It was hours later after they left the Smith residence. Roxanne took some days off from work and followed Henry on his business trip. They used his private jet so it was a very comfortable flight. At that moment, she was relaxing on the balcony of the presidential suite, watching the spectacular view over the horizon. The hotel was located near the ocean. Roxanne could access the beach directly from her room. It was a serene place that made her relax as the scent of the ocean wafted through her nostrils. Suddenly, the doorbell rang. When she went to open the door, she found a hotel staff waiting with a large bouquet and a box in his hands. "A delivery from Mr. Ford, M

Chapter 32~ My man
Henry shook the woman off his arm and furrowed his eyebrows. “What the fuck? What are you doing here?” He questioned, his face twisting in disgust. The woman was Linda Scott, the heiress of the Scott Shipping Company. Henry was once set up with her for a blind date. He thought he was meeting her father, Robert Scott, only to find his daughter waiting at the table. They planned to have a marriage alliance with the Ford Corporation but Henry already had a marriage arrangement. He addressed the issue and told them he couldn't marry Linda because he wasn't interested. Nevertheless, Linda was obsessed with Henry and despite knowing that he couldn't walk anymore, she still wanted to marry him and become the mistress of the Ford Corporation. It was, after all, a mega-corporation with branches all over the world. For months, she waited for an opportunity to see Henry and seduce him but she heard he had gone to take over the Ford Corporation's main branch in another Country. Howev

Chapter 33~ Your taste
“Hey, Roxy! How’s it going on your trip?” Heather said on the video call. She had called Roxanne the moment they came back from the rooftop dinner. The romantic ambience that Henry had set was disrupted by Linda and after Roxanne’s comment, things became a little awkward. For some reason, Roxanne felt uncomfortable with the way Henry seemed to have many admirers. It seemed many women were after him wherever he went. However, she didn’t let her emotions show and pretended to be calm about it. At that moment, Roxanne was on the balcony while Henry was in his room. The presidential suite was like an apartment with a living room and two bedrooms. “Have you already done it? Is Henry good in bed?” Heather continued teasingly. She had always been the open-minded type and spoke without a filter. Roxanne's eyes rounded at her friend's words. After a few seconds, she replied, “Why would you say that? There’s no way that would happen.” Her marriage to Henry would be fake and even thou

Chapter 34~ Two weeks
It took a while for Roxanne to come back to her senses. “Now you know I can satisfy you,” Henry smirked as he wheeled himself back and left the balcony. His words brought Roxanne back to reality and her face became as red as a tomato. She could still feel Henry's tongue on her core and boy did it feel good. By the time she entered the living room, she found Ace walking out of Henry's room. “Ace, were you helping Henry get on the bed?” Roxanne asked. Ace always helped Henry push his wheelchair, when he had to use the shower or go to bed. “Yes, Ma'am,” Ace answered. Roxanne furrowed her eyebrows as a thought occurred to her. When Henry supported her hips just now, it was as if he had a strength of ten men. He didn't seem like a disabled man at all. Someone of that strength in his arms could probably help himself onto the bed. Were they putting on a show? Roxanne was about to walk to her room when a file on the table in the corner caught her attention. When she picked

Chapter 35~ Twenty questions
“Two weeks?” Roxanne's eyes almost popped out of their socket. “Isn’t that too soon?” “It is but we can't really stop Grandpa. He is too eager to get me married,” Henry responded with a light chuckle. Silence befell them after that. Roxanne's heart was pounding violently against her ribcage. She didn't know why the thought of marrying Henry now excited her. “Ok... I'll tell my father when we return,” she replied and then suggested, “We came here to know each other more but we haven't had the time. Let’s do this... How about we play twenty questions?” “Are you going to kiss me with each question I answer?” Henry asked with a raised eyebrow. Roxanne's face flushed. She gave Henry a playful glare and said, “No kissing. We will take turns asking each other what we want to know. How’s that?” Henry nodded. “I still want that kiss—” “Henry!” Roxanne blushed and said in a low voice. “Just one... But after we are done with the questions.” Henry let out a low chuckle and nodded.

Chapter 38~ Back home
Roxanne and Henry spent a week away on the business trip. During their days there, Henry would take Roxanne on dinner or lunch dates but they couldn't explore more sites because Henry was in a wheelchair. However, they had fun and got closer while at it. On the last day of the trip, Henry took Roxanne to the rooftop of the hotel where he had set up their last date on that trip. “Since this is where we had our first date, I thought of ending this trip at this same spot,” he said the moment they got on the rooftop. Roxanne’s breath hitched as she looked at the magical transformation of the rooftop. Unlike the fancy candlelight dinner which Henry had set up the first time, what she was looking at seemed to promise a quiet and cozy romantic night of stargazing. Warm and cozy lighting was created by the soft, flickering lights that surrounded the area. In the night sky, they hung like constellations, reflecting the stars above in a celestial dance. There was a comfortable reclin

"I won’t be able to go to the banquet with you, Roxy,” Roxanne heard Henry say on the phone. “There’s something I need to do and it will take a while.” After they returned from the business trip, they both got busy with going back to work and catching up on lost time. Roxanne had to work overtime because she had been away. Of course, whenever it was required, Henry would ask Roxanne out to work on the wedding preparations. There were only seven days left until their wedding day and a lot of things had to be done since Henry wanted it to be the biggest event in Brentwood city. It was now Larry Ford's seventieth birthday and there was a big banquet being held at the Ford’s Paradise Hotel’s Hall. The Ford Corporation founder's birthday was a big event where influential people like politicians, CEOs and celebrities would be in attendance.

Chapter 40~ Maya lost
Roxanne had a few glasses of wine and soon felt the urge to relieve herself. So she excused herself from the high table and went to the restroom. A few minutes later, on her way back, she felt like someone was following her but when she whipped around to see who it was, she didn’t see anyone. It was only when a group of women bumped into her that she felt someone yank her necklace off her neck. Someone pretended to fall and in the span of the moment, clutched on Roxanne’s necklace and snatched it away. If Roxanne was distracted by the sudden commotion, she wouldn’t have noticed what had happened but she had been alert ever since she saw Maya in the hall. Despite knowing that her necklace had been stolen, Roxanne played along and acted like she didn’t realise what had happened. She wanted to see what Maya planned to do after getting her necklace. When she returned to her seat, Heather leaned over and asked, “Where’s your necklace?” “Someone stole it,” Roxanne replied calmly.
