Chapter 329: Chapter 325: Roy Lewis, are you hiding something from me?
Translator: 549690339 |
Richelle Dunn hadn’t been in a relationship before, and she’s not overly sensitive. However, when Roy Lewis said this, she felt something was off without any reason.
She couldn’t stand his smell and pushed him away slightly while leaning on his chest.
“The smell of smoke and alcohol is strong on you. I can’t stand it!”
After pushing him away, she looked up at him.
“Roy Lewis, are you hiding something from me?”
Roy Lewis looked at her seriously, “No, I just feel that it’s not fair for you to stay at home and take care of the children alone while I go out to meet my friends.”
Richelle scoffed, “Am I that petty? Haven’t I been taking care of them by myself
for the past four to five years?”
Roy Lewis stretched his hand to touch her face but remembered her comment about his smell and withdrew his hand.
“I had no choice back then!”
Richelle laughed and gently kicked him in the leg.
“Alright, go take a shower. I’ll make some tea and finish the rest of the work.” Roy Lewis actually wanted to hug and kiss her, but considering his smoky smell, he simply nodded.
“Alright then, you go.”
Richelle asked again, “Are you hungry? Should I heat up some snacks for you?”
“No need, I ate enough tonight.”
Looking at Richelle walking away, Roy Lewis withdrew his gaze.
After taking a shower in the bedroom, he went to the children’s bedroom to check on them, helped them cover up with the blankets that they had kicked off, and then knocked on Richelie’s bedroom door.
Richelle had been busy with the Dunn Group lately, with some projects from her master needing her help, but she didn’t have time to pay attention to them.
Roy Lewis knew about this.
So, he was very self-conscious and didn’t give Margareth too many tasks.
After all, the work was for the Federation, but the one who got tired was his own wife!
Richelle naturally didn’t know that her big spender was so considerate and just assumed that he was busy with other things and temporarily put her aside.
Since there were no new tasks from the spender, she spent most of her time on her master’s projects during the past two days.
When Roy Lewis knocked on the door, she was organizing a pile of complex data, and without looking up, she casually said, “Come in,” and went back to her work, not bothering with him.
Roy Lewis placed a plate of freshly washed grapes by her side, “Have some
grapes, they’re sweet.”
As he said this, he leaned over and hugged her from behind, resting his head on her shoulder and lightly kissing her face.
Knowing she was busy, he didn’t dare to bother her too much.
Richelle didn’t even bother to look up, “No, I don’t want to bother spitting out the skin and seeds.”
Hearing this, Roy Lewis straightened up, peeled a grape, broke it apart to check for seeds, and then offered it to her.
“This grape doesn’t have seeds. Have some. You coughed a few times on the plane this afternoon, are you feeling a bit irritable due to your upcoming period?”
It’s ironic that Richelle is a doctor, but now it’s Roy Lewis who cares about her well-being.
Richelle opened her mouth and ate the grape he offered, nodding and mumbling.
“Yes, a little. My period might be coming soon, feeling a bit irritable.” Roy Lewis, just like Richelle, had never been in a relationship, and it seemed that no one around him had ever given him reliable advice or reminders.
Now hearing her say this, he suddenly felt that he wasn’t being a very good boyfriend.
While peeling a dozen grapes for Richelle, he lowered his head and thought about something. When Richelle indicated that she didn’t want to eat anymore, he washed his hands, took out his phone, and searched for tips on women’s periods.
The more he searched, the more he realized how tolerant and accommodating Richelle was to him.
Because, as he carefully read those tips, it seemed that women during their period would not only have a bunch of precautions but also experience very low mood, easily get angry and emotional, throwing irrational tantrums, and need more care and understanding.
But when he thought about their time together, she never seemed to have moments of severe irritability or emotional ups and downs.
Was it because she had a good physical constitution?
Or was it because she had gotten used to carrying everything on her shoulders, like raising and taking care of children alone, and forcing herself to bear everything because there was no one to share the burden?
When Roy Lewis thought of this possibility, his heart ached again.
He wasn’t sure about Richelle’s exact dates, so he pretended to ask her casually.
“Is it in the next couple of days?”
Richelle nodded, “The day after tomorrow.”
“Is it always on time every month?” Roy Lewis had just searched a lot of questions, so his questions were quite professional.
Richelle nodded again.
“So usually five days or a week?”
“Five days…”
Roy Lewis took notes of everything in his notepad.
Then he looked up dietary recommendations for periods and saved them one by one.
Richelle thought he was busy with his own business and didn’t pay much attention. She was midway through organizing the data, and when she came across something unclear, she plugged in the video phone to ask her master directly.
Sonia Seaton’s face appeared on the screen, but instead of speaking immediately, with a surprised look, she glanced past Richelle as if she was looking at something behind her. Then her eyes showed a hint of discontent and even wariness.
Richelle quickly realized, “Master, you’re overthinking it. He just brought me some fruits.”
As she said this, she deliberately showed her the fruit plate with more than half eaten.
“Master Seaton!”
Normally arrogant Roy Lewis was now respectfully smiling and greeting Soma Seaton.
He immediately helped Richelle clarify, “Yes, I just came to bring fruits!”
