Richelie Dunn certainly couldn’t agree to let the Lewis family’s chefs work in her home. Not only would she refuse, Mrs. Walker wouldn’t agree either. This was clearly robbing someone of their job.
“They can come to my house to work. When they have time, they can cook some grilled ribs. Timothy and Tiffany should like it too.”
On the rare occasion Richelle made a request, Roy Lewis immediately let
Timmy arrange it with Uncle Axel.
Timmy of course understood that his dad was using this as an opportunity for some alone time with his mom.
He glanced at his mom, saw that she didn’t have a strong reaction, closed his book, slid off the bed, and ran out of the room.
Richelle waited until he left and the door closed with a “bang” before she realised. Now, only she and Roy Lewis were left in the bedroom.
Roy Lewis seemed to have his next topic of conversation planned as soon as he
sent their son away.
“Have you been dealing with some challenges recently? It seems like you’re not
as energised as before.”
Richelle swore at him in her heart. The biggest challenge she faced was you, Mr. Lewis. You’re always hinting at this and that, making it impossible for me to sleep!
“It’s nothing. My profession means I can’t always get beauty sleep.
Recently, she hadn’t just been missing out on beauty sleep. She had been sleeping at one or two a.m. and getting up just after six. She wasn’t even getting the basic amount of sleep.
Roy Lewis assumed she had been busy with medical matters and felt sorry for
her.
“Master Seaton has more than one disciple, right? Or are her research projects really that numerous?”
Richelle was embarrassed to tell him that she had recently been pushing away most of Master Seaton’s projects, angering her so much that she nearly expelled Richelle from her tutelage.
“The capable bear more responsibilities, I can’t help it.
Roy Lewis had wanted to subtly pry for some information about her previous marriage or ex-husband, but Richelle didn’t let anything slip. He couldn’t even bring it up before being diverted.
He originally wanted to try to break through her defence once more, but sleepiness gradually crept up on him. By the time he woke, Richelle had already left.
Roy Lewis was somewhat regretful, but he didn’t have too much time to think about it, as the situation of the Thompsons was complex and he needed to implement a plan as soon as possible.
So, after dealing with a large amount of paperwork from the Lewis Group with Nathan, they arrived at the Presidential Palace in the late afternoon.
Kennedy Green had a daughter and a son, but neither of them were interested in business or politics and were currently studying humanities and science at the Federation’s top university.
All the business power of the Greens was handed over to Mrs. Green, Maggie
Mitchell, when Kennedy went into politics.
This couple, one in business and one in politics, were both as busy as spinning tops.
At this moment, Mrs. Green, who had originally agreed to have dinner together, suddenly had her assistant call to say that there had been an unexpected situation at an overseas branch and a senior executive meeting was needed. She wouldn’t return for dinner.
When the butler relayed the message, Kennedy shook his head with a bitter smile.
“You both heard, right? When choosing a marriage partner, don’t find someone who is too absorbed in their career, otherwise, there aren’t many opportunities to even have dinner together.
Roy Lewis didn’t say anything, but Nathan cast a thoughtful glance at his grandfather.
■■I don’t mind. After all, I won’t be that busy. If she’s busy with her career, I can slow down to match her pace.”
Kennedy Green, being a clever man, heard him and immediately “oh?” with a questioning look at Roy Lewis.
“Is the woman Roy Lewis has his eye on, similar to your aunt?”
Thinking of how Richelle switched off her phone when on a mission, Roy Lewis felt a headache coming on. “I’m afraid, it will probably be worse.”
Kennedy Green’s eye filled with concern, “Who’s the girl who causes you such a headache?”
Roy Lewis, who hadn’t even held a girl’s hand so far, naturally wouldn’t say it openly.
“Uncle, don’t worry about it. When it’s convenient, I will bring her over to visit you and aunt.”
For Roy Lewis, the only elders left now are his grandpa and Kennedy Green and his wife. Therefore, if he and Richelle Dunn were together, the first thing they would definitely do is visit uncle and aunt.
Kennedy Green gave Nathan Caroule an inquiring look, and Nathan blinked desperately to signal him not to ask more.
Kennedy Green understood. His nephew, this time, has met quite a match. Although Kennedy Green just seemed to be advising the two young people not to find a partner who is too ambitious when he was talking about it, in fact, both Roy Lewis and Nathan Caroule knew that he was just teasing.
The love story of him and his wife Maggie Mitchell is a well-talked tale in the Federation.
The two have been busy with commercial and political affairs for decades. Although they cannot spend as much time together as ordinary couples, their feelings for each other are just as romantic and solid as they were decades ago. Therefore, although he always vaguely suggested introducing this and that to his nephew, even once wanted to match Roy Lewis with Kiara Dunn, he actually thought that his nephew deserved a better girl.
It’s just that this girl didn’t appear in the first thirty years.
And now, it seems, this girl has finally appeared.
“Sounds like a very excellent and good girl?”
As an elder, it’s natural to focus the conversation on personal matters when eating with the younger generation.
And Roy Lewis, who had always been vague in the past, this time, nodded very seriously.
“Yes, she is an excellent and outstanding girl.
Upon hearing his nephew praise a girl for the first time, Kennedy Green became more curious about the identity of the girl.
“From what you’re saying, I’m even more looking forward to you bringing her over soon.”
Roy Lewis gave Nathan Caroule a glance, seemingly warning him not to talk too much.
“Now is not the time. When the opportunity is right, I will bring her to meet you and aunt.”
Richelle Dunn has a special identity. She had an interaction with uncle before due to the death warrant. It’s better not to let the uncle know before everything is settled.
Of course, it’s not that Roy Lewis does not trust his uncle, but he is afraid that his uncle and aunt may have good intentions but end up doing bad things.
Seeing his nephew being tight-lipped, Kennedy Green no longer pursued the topic, and shifted the discussion to Timmy’s matters.
“How’s the investigation I asked you to do on Kiara Dunn?
This matter was handled by Nathan Caroule.
“There are no mental health patients in several generations of the Dunn family. Her condition should be caused by a huge shock and change, resulting in mental confusion.”
After hearing this, Kennedy Green heaved a sigh of relief.
“That’s good. Your aunt and I were worried before, but now we can rest assured.”
The three men continued to chat while eating, and after dinner, they moved to the study to discuss official matters.
“I’m still keeping an eye on Jayden Dunn and people from United Ventures have been contacting Dunn Group frequently recently, but it seems that they have not reached a consensus yet. As for Mason Lilliput, his people have not had any overt interactions with The Dunns. As for The Thompsons, they seem to be plotting some big event recently and they are unusually peaceful…
After listening, Kennedy Green remained silent for a long time before speaking.
“I will communicate and follow up on The Thompsons issue with the heads of state. As for Jayden Dunn, Roy Lewis, you should put in more effort, and as for Mason Lilliput, this person is very cunning. The absence of overt interactions does not mean they are not contacting privately..”
