Roy Lewis irritably responded, “She’s a madwoman, what could anyone ask her? And besides, I went all out on that son of a bitch Richelie Dunn. If it wasn’t for someone bribing her, I wouldn’t even be able to make a phone call, let alone meet anyone.”
Theo picked up the conversation, “Mr. Lewis, this is Theo. I suspect it was Richelle who drove your wife insane. My sister’s incident has already been admitted to by Richelle.”
On the other end of the phone, there was silence for a while, and finally, James Lewis asked, “Can you, Mr. Dunn, pass a message on to the Thompson family for me?”
Since Lucas Thompson was dealt with, the Thompsons seemed to have returned to a superficial calm with the Lewis family.
As for what had actually happened between the two families, neither James Lewis nor Jayden Dunn had any idea.
“Mr. Lewis, our word doesn’t carry the same weight as yours.”
After dealing with the Thompson family a few times, Theo knew that their people were ruthless. James Lewis still had some leverage due to Diana Thompson’s identity.
But the Dunn father and son? They were probably wasting their breath.
James Lewis’s current situation evidently wasn’t good, and it seemed that the Lewis family had completely given up on them.
He was silent for a while before he agreed.
“Alright, I’ll think about it myself, and I’ll contact you later for further details.”
After hanging up, Jayden Dunn glanced at his son.
“What’s our next move? Shall we wait for James Lewis’s results before taking action?”
Theo shook his head, his expression becoming increasingly serious.
“Of course not, we need to act even more urgently. From what James Lewis said, not only has Richelle gained the approval of Roy Lewis, but also Mr. Lewis himself. Think about it, how much did Mr. Lewis dote on Kiara? She could have whatever she wanted. Now that he knows the truth, will he just let it go?” Jayden trembled at his son’s words, “So…what do we do now?”
There was a flash of murderous intent in Theo’s eyes, “What can we do? The enemy of our enemy is our friend. We may be easily defeated by them, but the Lewis family and Roy Lewis can’t defeat the Thompsons or Mr. Lilliput, right?” Jayden had always been a conservative, and as he got older, his tolerance for crises diminished.
In the beginning, he had connections with the Thompsons and Mr. Lilliput. But the more he dealt with them, the more fearful he became.
Because he knew that whether it was the Thompsons or Mr. Lilliput, once you get involved, there was no way out.
“Shall we beg the Lewis family for mercy?”
Theo sneered at his father’s naivety, “Dad, do you really think that this is a matter that can be resolved by apologizing and begging for mercy?”
Back then, Theo knew about everything that had happened to Richelle. Standing in Roy Lewis’s shoes, even if he had no feelings for Richelle now, he was still a part of the group that had been manipulated by them and Diana Thompson. Furthermore, his other children almost lost their lives and had been separated for years. There was no way Roy Lewis would let the Dunns off the hook.
“Dad, there’s no turning back for us now!”
After speaking, Theo took out his phone, “I’ll give Mr. Zadra a call, and you should hurry up and contact several shareholders on your end.”
Later, Marcus Zadra came to the Dunn’s house, where he was received by Theo and Kiara.
“Mr. Zadra, I haven’t had a chance to thank you for helping Kiara.”
As Theo poured tea for Marcus, he smiled and pointed at Kiara, who had her head down and wasn’t talking.
“Kiara has been wanting to contact you, but she didn’t want to disturb you if you were busy.”
Marcus didn’t look at Kiara but raised his tea cup to Theo and said, “You’re too kind,” before taking a sip.
After being treated by Master Troy, Kiara had mostly recovered. However, news of her insanity had spread throughout Lordon, and her circle of friends were all opportunists. There were very few people who genuinely cared about her.
Furthermore, the Dunns had been dealing with one incident after another over the past few months, and the family’s influence in Lordon had significantly weakened.
As a result, Kiara, who had been staying at home for a while, had surprisingly become a well-behaved girl.
Seeing that Marcus wasn’t paying attention to Kiara, Theo felt a chill in his heart. But now, he had to mobilize all the available resources at his disposal.
While the Zadra family’s power wasn’t as great as the Dunns’, if the two families could form a marriage alliance, they could gain more chips and support from Mr. Lilliput.
“Kiara, the cherry blossoms in the garden have bloomed, and they’re quite beautiful. Why don’t you take Mr. Zadra for a walk?”
Kiara, dressed in a white dress, looked up at Marcus. As their eyes met, they stared at each other for a few seconds before Marcus finally nodded.
“Alright…”
After spending some time at home, Kiara seemed to be in good spirits. Although she had lost some weight, it added a touch of pitiful beauty to her appearance.
Marcus’s gaze lingered on her for a while before he put down his cup and walked out with Kiara, side by side.
Theo watched their retreating figures with satisfaction before turning around and going back to his study to deal with his own matters.
It wasn’t long before the news of Kiara and Marcus’s upcoming wedding spread.
Richelle received the news almost immediately, and she rushed back to her own bedroom to mess around with her computer…
[Hehe, Dr.. Dunn is going to stir up some trouble!]
