Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu's Passionate Pursuit

Chapter 222: Chapter 218: Dr. Dunn is Master Lewis’s Elixir

Translator: 549690339

However, Roy Lewis was a clever man.

He sent the gift without a direct message, leaving the Dunns to interpret its meaning.

The news that Roy Lewis had given the Dunns an ancient jade worth nearly 200 million spread across the city that night.

It wasn’t until the next morning, when Harris Dunn received congratulatory calls from his friends, that he realized something was wrong.

He hurried to the dining room and spoke to Jayden Dunn, who was having breakfast.

“Dad, we’ve been tricked by Roy Lewis!”

With a puzzled look, Jayden asked, “Tricked? We haven’t had anything to do with him for a long time.”

Harris raised the phone in his hand, “Just now, my friends called to congratulate us on reconciling with the Lewis Group.”

Jayden frowned, “Reconcile with the Lewis Group? When did this happen? Why don’t I know about it?”

Blaming himself for being careless, Harris explained, “The whole town knows that Roy has gifted us a 200-million ancient jade.”

Still not quite convinced, Jayden wondered, “How is that possible? We didn’t publicize it…”

At this point, his eyes widened as he understood, “You mean, Roy deliberately sent us such an extravagant gift to create the illusion that the Lewis Group and Dunn Group have reconciled?”

Harris confirmed with a serious expression, “Yes, it seems his goal has been achieved.”

Jayden could no longer sit still, knowing that the Dunns were waiting for Mr. Lilliput’s help. If he believed these rumors, the Dunn family would be in deep trouble.

“I’ll call Mr. Lilliput to explain right away…”

Harris didn’t have a better solution, “Yeah, you go ahead and explain to Mr. Lilliput. I’ll call a shareholder meeting.”

Meanwhile, in Kindur, Richelle Dunn soon received the news from Hugo Camrey.

The two began discussing the timing and approach for United Ventures to make their move.

After unexpectedly sowing discord between Mason Lilliput and Jayden Dunn, Roy quickly took advantage and dismantled an underground trading chain the Thompson family had abroad.

For a time, Mason Lilliput’s power seemed to be suddenly weakened.

As a result, some opportunistic speculators who were good at adjusting their strategies shifted their support to Kennedy Green.

Roy was busier than ever, and for several days in a row, Richelle arrived in the morning to find him already gone.

“Where’s Mr. Lewis? In the study again?”

When Richelle entered and didn’t see anyone, she asked Uncle Axel.

Not hiding anything, Uncle Axel replied, “Yes, he went straight to the study after getting up.”

Routine check-ups by Richelle, who was monitoring Roy’s condition daily, ensured she wouldn’t worry too much even when she knew he was busy.

“What time did he go to bed last night?”

Roy had been growing more and more cautious of his health; no matter how busy he was, he made sure to be in bed before midnight.

“He went to bed on time, and got up at six in the morning as usual.”

His routine had not changed; he had simply made his daily schedule tighter.

Once Richelle was sure Roy’s sleep was not being compromised, she stopped asking more questions, took a seat on the couch, and began checking her emails on her phone.

“Dr. Dunn, won’t you go and see Master Lewis?”

Uncle Axel secretly hoped Richelle would show more concern for his master. The two of them had been flirting for some time, but there had been no substantial progress, which frustrated the loyal old housekeeper who so desperately wanted a mistress for the house.

Richelle had her own work to do, and didn’t think Roy would appreciate being disturbed by idle people during his work.

“No, I don’t want to interrupt his work.”

Uncle Axel poured her tea, “Dr. Dunn, how could you possibly interrupt Master Lewis? If you were there, his work efficiency would surely increase.”

Richelle looked up with amusement, “Oh? This is the first time I’ve heard that a doctor has this effect?”

Uncle Axel, being quite old, had no difficulty shamelessly praising his master, as it wasn’t a big deal for him.

“I don’t know about other doctors, but for Master Lewis, Dr. Dunn is able to cure all kinds of ailments.”

Richelle Dunn shook her head with a smile, “Uncle Axel, you’re giving me too much praise.”

Uncle Axel continued to sing Richelle’s praises, “How is that praising you too much? For Master Lewis, Dr. Dunn is more effective than any elixir!”

Having been praised to this extent, it would appear too cold-hearted of Richelle to just sit there motionlessly.

“Alright, Uncle Axel, you go make some tea, I’ll bring it to him.”

She could at least show some concern for the man who worked tirelessly to provide for their family.

Richelle carried a tray with tea and some tea snacks, knocking on the door of the study.

“Come in!”

Roy Lewis’s deep voice came from inside.

Richelle had also been busy lately, only coming over at about the time for acupuncture.

Roy hadn’t dined at her home for several days, and they only saw each other during the acupuncture sessions.

The time they spent conversing was mostly between the beginning of acupuncture and when Roy fell asleep.

So when she pushed the door open and saw Roy focused on the documents, she suddenly realized that she hadn’t looked at his face so closely for quite a while.

“Mr. Lewis, Uncle Axel says breakfast will take a while, so have some tea and a snack first.”

Roy assumed it was Uncle Axel at first, but upon hearing her voice, he raised his head and a smile appeared on his face.

“Richelle? So early today?”

He closed the file, got up, and came forward.

“Yeah, if I didn’t come early, I would have missed how busy you are.”

Richelle examined his face, noticing his energy level was decent. It seemed that his schedule was indeed regular, which slightly relieved her worries.

Roy, who approached her, took the tray from her hands and met her concerned gaze.

“Did Uncle Axel say something nonsense again?”, he said, leading her into the living room.The source of this ᴄontent ɪs novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

Richelle sat down, “Uncle Axel didn’t say anything. Don’t I have eyes to see?”

Roy smiled and then gently smoothed her slightly messy hair.

“Don’t worry, I don’t just live for myself now. I have a whole family to support.”

Ever since they had opened up on the night of the party, Roy’s speech had become much more transparent.

They were just short of discussing their wedding plans and arranging their marital house.

Richelle had gone from feeling uncomfortable with his open expressions of love and pretending she didn’t hear them.

To now, being mostly at ease with it.

“As long as you know, don’t think your body is your own.”

Roy listened to Richelle’s nagging with a smile, “Understood!”

He picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then grabbed a snack and took a bite.

“This snack is good, you should try it.”

As he said that, he picked up a piece and offered it to Richelle’s mouth.

Richelle wanted to dodge, but it would seem too deliberate, so she hesitated and eventually opened her mouth, allowing the snack to enter.

She didn’t know if it was on purpose or by accident on Roy’s part, but her open lips brushed against his fingers.

Richelle instinctively tried to dodge, but Roy’s large palm pressed against her face. Before she could react, he leaned in.

His lips, carrying a faint scent of tea, gently pressed against hers….
