Translator: 549690339
Richelle Dunn paused for a moment before replying to Hugo Camrey.
“Hugo, you’re overthinking it!”
Seeing her insistence, Hugo didn’t say anything more and instead brought up Kiara Dunn,
“Kiara’s gone crazy again!”
Richelle had heard about Kiara’s improvement a few days ago from Hugo, and she was somewhat relieved, wondering why the heaven’s eyes only opened for a short time and then closed again.
Now that she heard Kiara had gone crazy again, she couldn’t help but feel elated.
“How did she go crazy again? Tell me!”
Hugo laughed, “Isn’t it because of the high-profile announcement of you and Roy Lewis? Kiara, who had been recovering well, saw the top search and then started screaming that she wanted to kill the wild woman who seduced Roy Lewis!”
Richelle burst into laughter, “She really can’t let me go, wanting to kill me before and still wanting to kill me now. I probably had a bitter feud with her in my last life!”
The two of them gossiped about Kiara’s situation for a while before finally getting to the main topic.
“Today I met Jayden Dunn and his son, and his son seems like he’s going to be quite difficult to deal with!”
Richelle didn’t have much of an impression of her cousin, Harris Dunn. In her memory, many of The Dunns’ persecutions against her didn’t seem to involve him.
So when she vowed to deal with The Dunns, her main targets had always been Jayden, Megan Linwood, and Kiara.
Now that Hugo mentioned Harris, she was quite surprised.
“What do you mean?”
Hugo organized his thoughts, “At first glance, he doesn’t seem to have much of a presence, and he doesn’t say much. But as soon as he speaks, he basically cuts to the heart of the matter, with his key focus being very accurate. He has a much deeper scheme and is also much smarter than his father.”
Richelle was indeed surprised, “I see, we’ll have to investigate his background and experience again so we don’t overturn the boat due to negligence.”
The two reached a consensus, they discussed the problems they encountered with Jayden and his son today, and contemplated their strategies and future plans.
“By the way, Jayden kept asking about you today, and then Harris casually mentioned something that seemed to imply that he knows someone from United Ventures. Do you think there’s anything that needs to be remedied?”
Richelle reassured him confidently, “Don’t worry, he won’t find anything. Just keep following the current plan, and when it’s time for me to step in, I’ll naturally appear.”
Richelle had just bid farewell to Hugo and hung up when her door was knocked and Roy Lewis’s voice came through.
“Richelle, are you asleep?”
Richelle went over and opened the door, “Not yet, what’s up?”
Roy Lewis, a gentleman, turned his head to look at the living room.
“Let’s have a chat…”
Richelle didn’t know what he wanted to talk about, but her intuition told her that it wasn’t good news.
When she came out and saw his solemn expression, Richelle was even more sure of her guess.
After sitting down, Roy seemed to be considering how to start, and Richelle didn’t push him, sitting there quietly waiting.
“Richelle, if you feel offended by what I’m about to say, I want to apologize first.”
Richelle was more and more puzzled by what Roy Lewis was trying to sell, as the Roy Lewis she knew wasn’t someone who would hesitate and be indecisive like this.
“Mr. Lewis, please speak your mind.”
Roy Lewis looked serious and stared intently at Richelle before saying.
“You mentioned that Timothy and Tifanny wear masks because of unsightly birthmarks on their faces.”
Upon hearing him mention this, Richelie’s heart skipped a beat.
It’s terrible, has he discovered something?
Richelle’s heart was in turmoil, and just as she was thinking about how to brush him off, she heard Roy continue.
“I’ve recently inquired that in West Asia, there’s a plastic surgery specialist whose technique to remove birthmarks is exceptionally advanced. Why don’t we contact him and find out about the relevant surgery situation?”
After hearing Roy’s explanation, Richelle’s heart finally settled back down.
After pondering for a while, she replied to Roy.
“Mr. Lewis, I appreciate your concern for Timothy and Tifanny. However, their birthmark pigmentation is quite deep, and surgery would be very painful. So, I think it’s best to wait until they’re older before considering removing the birthmarks.”
Richelle only intended to have a reasonable explanation to deceive Roy Lewis, but never in her wildest dreams did she think that there would come a day when Roy Lewis would be so concerned about Timothy and Tifanny as if they were his own flesh and blood.
Although he was indeed their biological father, it couldn’t have been easy for him to have such feelings and actions while being unaware of their true identity.
Probably, Roy didn’t expect her to reject him so directly and quickly. He frowned slightly and sighed.
“I also thought about this. Otherwise, as a doctor yourself, you wouldn’t be so indifferent to this matter.”
Richelle didn’t say anything, because at this moment, her conscience was very uneasy, and the more she said, the deeper her conscience would be tortured.
“How about this, we can first talk to the doctor, pass the situation on to him, and let him evaluate the best age for the surgery. What do you think?”
Roy Lewis had actually looked into this for several days.
However, before getting a clear answer, he didn’t want to give Richelle any false hope.
Instead of responding to his question directly, Richelle asked him.
“Mr. Lewis, how did you come up with this idea?”
After all, on the surface, Timothy and Tifanny seemed to have nothing to do with him. Taking care of them on a daily basis was understandable, but going to such lengths to inquire and arrange was due to genuine emotions.
Roy Lewis didn’t hide his feelings, “Timothy and Tifanny are so lively and adorable, and they’re so smart. When I see them wearing masks all day, I don’t feel good in my heart.”
Richelle was silent for a moment. She wasn’t sure if Roy’s discomfort stemmed from the feelings they developed during their time together, or if it came from a primitive and instinctive connection due to their blood relation.
However, regardless of the source, hearing him say this deepened the guilt she felt deep in her heart.
“Mr. Lewis, this matter concerns Timothy and Tifanny’s entire life. Please let me think about it, alright?”
Richelle didn’t know when she would make up her mind, but at least not now.
Roy Lewis absolutely respected her, “Alright, you take your time to think and weigh your options. Once you come to a decision, let me know. It’ll be easy for me to contact the specialist.”
The more Roy Lewis thought about it, the heavier Richelle’s mood became.
“Alright, thank you, Mr. Lewis!”
Roy Lewis furrowed his brows, his deep and mysterious eyes fixed on her for a while, then said.
“Richelle, I don’t know what you’re hesitating about, but please trust that I will treat Timothy and Tifanny just as I would Timmy.”
By saying this, he was explicitly telling Richelle that he already considered Timothy and Tifanny as his own children..
