Chapter 167: Chapter 163: There are people outside, and they still bother my mommy!
Translator: 549690339
Timmy was holding his dad’s phone and went running into the kitchen, where Richelle was chatting with Mrs. Walker.
Timmy ran in and mysteriously gestured for Richelle to come over.
Richelle bent down with a puzzled look, “Timmy, what’s up?”
Timmy carefully looked at her for a few moments, then thought it would be better to discuss such a private matter in private.
So, he pulled her outside.
“Come with me!”
Confused, Richelle allowed her son to lead her out of the kitchen and into the living room, where Roy caught her eye, and both tried to figure out what Timmy was up to.
Timmy intended to remind his mom of something, so when he saw his parents flirting in front of him, he couldn’t help but glare at Roy.
You philandering scoundrel, you clearly have someone else but still come to provoke my mom!
Poor Roy, even though he had raised Timmy for years, his son’s heart still leaned more towards Richelle.
Roy had no idea why his son was glaring at him, so he assumed that Timmy had a little secret or worry he wanted to share or seek help from Richelle, who was always good with such things.
Although confused, Roy allowed Timmy to lead Richelle into the bedroom.
Once inside, Timmy closed the door, turned on Roy’s phone screen, and handed it over to Richelle, speaking in a muffled voice.
“This is dad’s phone, look!”
Richelle looked at the phone, full of suspicion.
At first, she couldn’t see anything amiss. But upon looking more closely and recognizing herself as the sexy woman in an evening gown on the screen, her mind exploded.
For a moment, her brain couldn’t process anything, and she just stared blankly at the phone screen.
All she could think about was why he had this photo and why it was his phone background. These questions seemed unanswered, yet the answers appeared to be there.
Seeing his mom speechless, Timmy thought she was heartbroken and gently tugged on her arm, trying to comfort her.
“Don’t pay any attention to him! He’s a fool and a philanderer!”
Richelle, immersed in embarrassment and shame, didn’t immediately understand her eldest son’s advice.
“Baby, what are you talking about?”
Timmy thought his mom was still defending that foolish dad of his and was getting angrier.
“He used another woman as his phone screen! Why do you still care about him? Such a jerk should be kicked away, let him roll as far away as possible!”
The more Timmy spoke, the angrier he got, waving his little hand, as if ready to confront his dad right then and there.
Now Richelle finally understood her son’s intentions, and seeing his outraged expression, she forgot her own embarrassment and awkwardness, smiling as she squatted down in front of him.
“Baby, you misunderstood!”
Although admitting that the beautiful woman on the screen was herself was embarrassing, she couldn’t let her son think his dad was a philanderer, could she?
“Hmph!”, Timmy was just angry at his foolish dad, “Misunderstood? He’s been going on blind dates behind our backs! Such a jerk!”
Even now, he still remembered the time his dad came back smelling like perfume.
Perhaps the woman on the phone screen was that woman.
Richelle didn’t know if Roy had gone on blind dates and didn’t care. But she had to explain the phone screen situation to her son.
“Timmy, do you remember what I went to do this afternoon?”
Of course, Timmy remembered, “You went to shoot an advertisement, but what does that have to do with him?”
My mom works hard to make money and support the family, while that jerk dad just enjoys himself, shameless!
“Baby, I went to shoot a watch advertisement, the person on the screen is me.”
Timmy widened his eyes, as he had never thought the truth would be like this.
“Is this you? You’re not lying to me, are you?”
Adults can be really strange sometimes, lying to kids with fake stories.
But he’s not an ordinary kid, trying to deceive him?
Not that easy!
Richelle Dunn smiled awkwardly, “Yes, it’s me, baby. Look…”
She held her left wrist up to Timothy, pointing at a spot on it.
“I have a mole on my left wrist, just like the one in the photo…”
Timmy listened, looked closely at the phone screen and compared it to her hand, they were indeed identical!
Timmy couldn’t help but laugh, “So, this really is you?”
Richelle tried in vain to correct him, “This was an advertisement picture I took. The brand is your daddy’s company’s flagship product. So, putting it as his screensaver is like advertising for the company!”
Richelle tried to convince her son with this explanation, as well as herself.
Timmy gave her a deep and mysterious look, not arguing with her, took the phone and ran out of the room.
Humph! Mommy must think he’s a fool. Daddy had her picture as screensaver because he liked her, not for advertising purposes!
Even though Timmy never pried into the company’s business, he knew that the Lewis Group encompassed countless industries and it wouldn’t make sense for his CEO father to pay so much attention to a watch.
Roy Lewis in the living room watched his son mysteriously pull Richelle into the bedroom, only to slip out in a few minutes, shove the phone into his hand, kiss him on the cheek, and say in a childish voice, “Daddy, go for it!”
Then he turned around and happily ran into Timothy and Tifanny’s bedroom.
Roy was confused by his son’s behavior. When Richelle came out of the bedroom, he couldn’t help but ask her.
“What’s gotten into Timmy?”
Richelle, who was originally quite embarrassed, looked at Roy’s expression, and he apparently knew nothing about her conversation with their son.
Her embarrassment ebbed a little.
“It’s nothing. Just a little boy’s growing pains!”
Roy believed her at face value, and then suddenly remembered that the driver had mentioned his son writing love letters to girls at school.
A light bulb went off in his head.
“Could it be that Timmy has a crush on a little girl?”
Richelle was amused by his wild guess, “Mr. Lewis, where did that come from?”
Roy continued to guess, “He couldn’t be crushing on Tifanny, could he?”
Richelle was floored!
“Mr. Lewis, I think you need to check your head! Tifanny is Timmy’s sister!”
Roy finally came out of his wild imagination, “You’re right, Timmy has always treated Tifanny like a real sister. So what’s bothering him?”
By now, Richelle was sure that Roy really knew nothing about her conversation with their son.
She spread her hands helplessly.
“I promised Timmy that I would keep his secret.”
Roy, as an old father, felt a little hurt.
But then he thought, this might be a good thing. In the future, Timmy wouldn’t even need an adjustment period for any changes in his relationship with Richelle.
“Alright, since this is a secret between you two, I won’t ask.”
When it came to issues of raising their child, he had always trusted Richelle.
And this time, he felt at ease as a hands-off owner..
