The Roxena Prison of Love
Chapter 100 Roxena Prison of Love

The wind playing with the leaves raises a distinctive noise. Near the crystal clear spring, Roxena and Gerald rested their bodies. Finished quenching their thirst, they sat down to enjoy the singing of nature.

Roxena leaned on Gerald. With a supportive atmosphere, slowly the two looked up and ended up with a kiss.

"Tomorrow you just have to introduce yourself. The rest let me take care of it," said Roxena, again giving a briefing to Gerald.

"Isn't my role too small, Xena? I should've convinced your family, not you. This is not fair to me, Xena!"

"It's not about who's playing more, Gerald. Let me take care of it. I chose you and I am responsible for my choice. There's no need for you to worry about rejection because the end result is approval" Roxena replied, convincing Gerald not to be discouraged.

"Xena, Honey …."

"I don't accept rejection!"

Yes, this household is indeed dominated by Roxena.

"All right."

Leave it all to Roxena. Gerald did enough of the role that he had set.

"By the way Xena is, the atmosphere here isn't suitable for making out?" Forget about meeting tomorrow. Still take advantage of this short 'holiday' time.

"Here?" Roxena gasps.

"Room" Gerald's erratious direction towards Roxena's understanding.

Roxena chuckles. Although it is interesting to do it in the open but this is not a suitable place for pregnant women like her. Roxena stood up and extended her hand to Gerald, "come on."

The next morning, the official family gathering begins. In the meeting hall, all members of Lawrence's family were present. Starting from the nuclear family, branches, and elders. Roxena sat in the family head seat. On his right and left side was followed by Mr. Lawrence and the elders.

The discussion at the meeting was not far from the development of the Lawrence family during the past year and also discussed about future plans. Then it was the decision made by the head of the family. All were discussed and thoroughly discussed in this meeting. The marriage of Roxena and Gerald will be discussed at the end of the meeting.

"The acquisitions and mergers that the current head of the family is doing are very dangerous. How could you take such an extreme decision without questioning our opinion? Don't you consider this family anymore?" An elder questioned Roxena's decision.

"Then regarding your marriage, you do things that break the norm by stealing someone else's husband! You tarnish Lawrence's family's good name!!"

"Did you not understand that the decision you made affected the entire Lawrence family?!"

"You also took Benjamin out of the Lawrence family. Did you get our approval? You make your own decisions without asking for our opinion. What's the point of us in your leadership?"

In essence, many complained about the decision Roxena took like this. While the one who complained rolled his eyeballs lazy. These elders are indeed smart to look for trouble.

"If you continue like this, we have the right to revoke your position as head of the family and remove you from the Lawrence Family!!"

Mr. Lawrence directly hit his chair, staring intently at the elder who said such a thing. Roxena smiled cynically. Do they think he's afraid of the threat? Roxena is always crossing the line.

"Is there still a complaint? Deliver it all at once so that I can all answer it," asked Roxena calmly, circulating her gaze.

"Nothing?"

"alright. I'll answer all your complaints."

Roxena stood up from her chair. He stared one after another at the elders' faces and paused for a long time as he looked at Mr. Lawrence's face. Mr. Lawrence's heart was pounding faster. He was worried about Roxena's answer.

"As long as I was in Lawrence's family I never caused the slightest loss. Instead I brought Lawrence Group to the peak of its glory. From childhood, I was taught to make my own decisions. Determine which is best."

"Since the Lawrence family stood, from generation to generation, the next head of the family has always been the first child of this family. If I was demoted, who would ascend and would the background of his achievements surpass mine? If there is, I don't mind."

Roxena chose to challenge back. "If it's not there, you're breaking tradition!!"roxena sarcasm.

The faces of the pias elders and other members of Lawrence's family seemed to agree with Roxena's statement. So far, no one has been able to match the intelligence and achievements of a Roxena Lawrence. She's flawless.

"Regarding my marriage. Is not an heir given the freedom to determine his spouse? And I chose my husband. As for him who previously had a wife, they were already divorced when we got married. So, no problem, right?"

"Then about the acquisitions and mergers I did, did Lawrence Group fall? Let's just talk about the results, you guys make a profit, right? It's sneaky if you kick me so much for profit."

Roxena chuckles. His words slapped many family members.

"Then Benjamin, that man doesn't deserve to be in Lawrence's family. He is benalu. So, as the head of the family, I decided to cut down the pestle. Was wrong? His loss didn't affect anything."

Look at his cold eyes. Benjamin was a sharp thorn that plagued his heart for many years. Mr. Lawrence closed his eyes. Roxena's hatred didn't fade on Benjamin.

"Yes .. I don't follow the rules to ask for your opinion. I'm sorry for that."

What'sthis?!

Everyone was surprised by the apology.

"My daughter already bears a great responsibility for the survival and glory of the Lawrence family. But, you guys firmly cornered my daughter up to this? Do you really want to replace my daughter? If indeed my daughter's hard work is not appreciated, it's better for me and my daughter to get out of this family!!"said Mr. Lawrence loudly. He was getting tired of his family drama. Always looking for mistakes and gaps. However, in fact they are not able to do what is denounced.

Panicked.

Hurry they are obedient and kind.

"Head of family please do not be offended by our questions. We just want clarity. Really!!

"Things have passed and now everything is fine. The story suffices this."

Hmh!

Roxena grieved inwardly.

Next was the inauguration of Gerald into the Lawrence family. The hall door opens. Gerald who hit the black suit in line with Roxena dress entered the hall followed by a few people carrying things. It was a gift Gerald prepared for the elders and other important family members.

Gerald gave his greetings first and then looked at Roxena for quite a while. Roxena nodded small.

"People say that the Lawrence family is a very distinguished family. Today I proved it myself. I am a stranger. Then let me introduce myself."

"My name is Gerald Chaddrick and I currently work at Lawrence Hospital as a surgeon. My last title was professor. The first one is Roxena Lawrence!"

Gosh darn. Self-introduction is too .. confident. But, Roxena likes it.

"As you have heard, he is my husband. Do any of you have any objections?!"

"Let us ask Mr. Gerald a few questions."

"Okay."

A few questions were asked of Gerald and Gerald answered him smoothly and confidently. Roxena is satisfied with Gerald's performance.

"After our review, you are the right person to accompany the Head of the Family."

Gerald looked stunned. Done already? This easy?

It's far from his shadow. He thought there would be a tense situation.

It's not without reason that the Elders didn't complicate the inauguration of Gerald into the Lawrence family. With Roxena's reply earlier, it had already signaled that the Elders did not interfere in his household affairs.

With that agreement, Gerald has officially become part of the Lawrence family. The gifts are well received.

“Before this meeting ends, I want to announce 2 things!”roxena.

Everyone looked at each other, what announcement?

Roxena stand. “Starting today, with my authority as the Head of the Family, I revoked the rights and authority of the elders in my every decision-making. So, you guys are freed from every decision I take!!”

All surprised!! That decision!!

“LANCANG!!”

“No. I'm thinking about you guys. Older people better live quietly. No need to worry about family affairs let me handle everything.”

“Xena.” Mr. Lawrence was completely inexhaustible with Roxena's decision. Other families consider that the Elder is a very important component. Roxena was about to revoke her authority. Of course it's an insult!

“We don't accept!!”

“Receive no accept, my decision is already round!!”reply Roxena with her cold tone.

Extinguished red. Piqued. They do not accept nor are they being pushed. Other family members also seemed helpless. Those who lived under the auspices of the Lawrence family had no power to resist, their lives following the decisions of the supreme leadership.

“You're outrageous!!"

The elders who did not accept left the hall. Roxena smiled coldly. Out means to oppose and he does not like to be opposed.

“Xena this ...”

“Syut! Let it go.”

“Then what's second, Xena?”ask Mr. Lawrence, stop messing around with Roxena's decision.

“I'm pregnant.”

A momentary state of silence. Gerald felt his hearing was wrong. “Xena what did you just say?”

“I’m pregnant.”

“God!! This is very good news!!” Mr. Lawrence offered his thanks. Waves of congratulations also came. Xena was still glued to her place. Really, this was the news he was waiting for but it felt like why was he even anxious?

“We should celebrate this. Prepare dinner for the whole family!!”

“Kyaaa!!”

Just as Mr. Lawrence dropped the order, there was suddenly a hysterical cry. “What's up?”

“At the gate there is a big lion, it ... it brings a dying live deer!!”sanya.

Gerald immediately remembered Roxena's orders yesterday afternoon to a male lion.

“The deer became dinner today.” Roxena stepped her foot out of the hall towards the gate. The lion was still there with a large deer in its mouth. Roxena approached the lion, “let go.” The king of the forest.

“Smart.” The lion's head.

“Back.”

The lion turned and ran away. Roxena smiled knot. “So soon slaughter that deer.” Some people immediately took him away.

“My grandson's wishes?”ask Mr. Lawrence. Roxena.

“Hahaha!! It seems a boy.”

“This is real? I'm gonna be a dad?” Gerald asked to be sure.

“Xena ... Will you be the mother of my children?” Gerald sank into the past. He's afraid. Roxena will do crazy things like first life, she's afraid Roxena still hasn't really let go of past trauma.

BUGH!!~~~~

Gerald fell to the ground. “Just die if you don't admit it!!”roxena's upset.
