Chapter 234: Chapter 230: A Pair of Heavenly Made Idiots
Translator: 549690339
Richelle Dunn didn’t expect that Master Lewis, usually an imposing figure, would turn into a pitiful leftover man in front of Mr. Kirby.
She couldn’t help but chuckle aloud.
“Mr. Kirby, aren’t you afraid that Master Lewis will retaliate if you talk about him like this?”
Mr. Kirby turned his head to look at Roy Lewis, “No, he won’t. We’ve grown up together like brothers who shared a pair of pants.”
Roy Lewis responded dryly from behind him, “A brother’s strikes are precise and swift!”
It was Richelle’s first time seeing someone interact with Roy Lewis in such a manner. In addition to admiring Mr. Kirby, she couldn’t help but be curious about his identity.
Just as Mr. Kirby had poured water for them and was about to chat more, someone from outside called for him. He had to leave in a hurry.
Roy Lewis, waiting till he left, took the initiative to resolve her doubts without waiting for Richelle to ask.
“Mr. Kirby is Uncle Kingston’s son. He took his mother’s last name, and his mother was my mom’s best friend. We did grow up together, and he feels more like a real brother to me than my paternal cousins.”
Richelle was taken aback. Initially, she thought it was just a midnight snack to satisfy her craving, but it turned out to be a meeting with his brother.
“You should have told me earlier…”
Although Richelle was still just Roy Lewis’s doctor at the moment, she already felt a sense of responsibility as someone by his side.
Roy Lewis looked at her with interest, “What difference would it make if I told you earlier? Dress up and put on makeup?”
Richelle Dunn glared at him, “He’s your brother. I can’t be too casual…”
Roy Lewis looked her up and down, “You seem to have misunderstood the word casual. It must have taken a lot of effort for you to be so pretty and refined.”
Richelle realized that once he started flirting, it was unstoppable.
She was truly unarmed against his words.
Richelle, being praised by him, was lost for words, and she had no choice but to lower her gaze and take a sip of her tea.
“Are you angry?”
Roy Lewis sometimes had keen and precise insights, but at times, his thought process took weird turns.
Richelle Dunn lifted her eyes to meet his gaze and replied honestly.
“I just don’t know how to handle someone as flattering as you.”
Roy Lewis finally understood, raised his hand and affectionately ruffled her hair.
“I’m not flirting, I genuinely think you’re beautiful and delicate. From the moment I saw you, I thought so.”
Richelle Dunn, for once, confidently thanked him for his compliment.
Roy Lewis’s fingers gently brushed through her long curls.
“I don’t think I’ve told you before, but you’re too beautiful and dazzling, it makes me feel insecure.”
He expressed this youthful, infatuated sentiment without any attempt to hide it.
In his view, there’s nothing shameful about liking someone or caring about someone.
Only now, Richelle was blushing from his continuous straightforward flattery.
She held her flaming cheeks in her hands, speaking rebelliously.
“You make it sound like you’re the only one feeling insecure. You’re so handsome, so charming and so rich. I also feel insecure!”
In love, regardless of your status or identity, if you fall in love, you’ll fear losing it, no one is exempt from this.
Roy Lewis extended his hand and gently pulled her into his arms, sighing softly.
“We’re both just fools.”
Yes, a pair of perfectly matched, love-struck fools.
And these two fools spent the night at Mr. Kirby’s private restaurant, eating and drinking leisurely till almost three o’clock.
Neither of them drank, but on the way home, they both behaved as if they had, snuggling together in the back seat, hand-in-hand, not speaking, only occasionally glancing at each other and breaking into a synchronised smile.
Upon returning to Richelle Dunn’s house, Roy Lewis, like the previous night, slept in Richelle’s bedroom, while Richelle herself once again squeezed into the children’s bed with Tiffany.
The next day, just like the day before, Richelle did acupuncture for Roy at home and then drove herself to the hospital to do acupuncture for Mrs. Camrey.
Hugo Camrey, who’d also been running around all day just like her, was surprisingly teaching Mrs. Camrey how to use the latest social networking app in her hospital room.
Seeing Richelle enter, Mrs. Camrey waved at her.
“Dr. Dunn, come check out the video montage I made.”
Richelle curiously walked over and saw a clip of a little boy with a bare #bottom, chuckling on the screen.
“This is…”
Even Hugo Camrey, who was usually thick-skinned, couldn’t help but blush.
“Mom, could you save me some face?”
Richelle Dunn burst out laughing, “Aren’t you my brother? What’s wrong with a sister seeing her brother’s bare tfbottom from when he was a child?”
Whenever Mrs. Camrey and Richelle were together, it usually involved them teaming up to tease Hugo Camrey.
Hugo stared at the two women laughing together and sighed resignedly.
After fooling around with Mrs. Camrey for a while, Richelle, as usual, administered acupuncture.
After Mrs. Camrey fell asleep, Richelle finally asked Hugo.
“Look at you showing up so early, is something urgent on?”
Hugo didn’t hide anything, “Jayden Dunn and his son went to visit The Thompsons again.”
Richelle’s face tightened, “Didn’t the maritime cooperation deal between The Dunns and The Thompsons fall through?”
Hugo shook his head, “It’s probably not about that. Didn’t your uncle warn you to keep an eye on Timmy’s safety?”
Richelle’s face changed deeply, “Are you saying they are planning on cooperating with The Thompsons and doing something to Timmy?”
Hugo wasn’t sure, after all, Timmy was Roy Lewis’s son. Anyone considering crossing him had to weigh their options carefully.
“I’m not sure. I’m just warning you to be extra careful these days. Not just Timmy, you should also be careful. And as for Timothy and Tiffany, try to avoid any unnecessary publicity.”
Richelle nodded solemnly, “I’ll be extra cautious. Could you figure out a way to give him a heads up?”
Roy Lewis was a very alert person and he probably already had information about the activities between The Dunns and The Thompsons.
But considering it involved the safety of children, it was best to remind him just in case.
“I will contact him later.”
After discussing the matters of maneuvering between The Dunns and The Thompsons, somehow their conversation drifted back to Dunn Group.
“That Lichtenstein Group, who are they really?”
Hugo sighed at Richelle’s question, “I was just about to tell you. Judging from the information I’ve gathered, I suspect that the power behind Lichtenstein Group is Mr. Lilliput.”
Although Richelle had been focusing on matters with Dunn Group lately and had done some research on related person or materials.
But her energy was limited, and she was wearing too many hats. Anything unrelated to the issue at hand, she chose to ignore.
“Mr. Lilliput?”
“Yes, Mason Lilliput, the rival of the current president Kennedy Green in the last presidential election.”
Richelle hadn’t given much thought to the Lichtenstein Group before, but after hearing Hugo’s words, she couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
“Now this situation is a bit tricky!”
