Chapter 115: Chapter 111: Treating Richelle Dunn Like Half an Owner

Although Timothy laughed and claimed he was a terrific actor, Richelle remained worried. The next day, she got up early and brought breakfast to the Lewis’ at just past seven in the morning.
Roy Lewis looked at her in surprise, “Why so early? Did something happen?”
Richelle glanced around and didn’t see her second son, so she asked.
“Where is Timmy?”
Roy thought that something had happened to his son, “He’s still sleeping. Did he tell you anything last night?”
Roy’s son treated Richelle like a mother, and he might tell her about the blind date arranged by his grandfather.
Richelle scrutinized Roy for a few moments, seeing that he did not show any unusual signs, and clearly, he had not realized anything was wrong with his son who had returned home yesterday.
However, this was not difficult to understand.
Timothy and Timmy looked almost identical, and even though their personalities or temperaments might differ, most people would not think further once they saw the same face.
“He didn’t say anything!”
Roy was half-skeptical, “Really? Nothing?”
Richelle felt a bit puzzled, sensing that Roy was acting a bit strange today.
“Really, nothing!
Roy stared at her, “The old man arranged a blind date for me, and Timmy was unhappy and caused a commotion.”
Normally, there was no need for Richelle to know about such a thing, but Roy had told her anyway.
Moreover, for some reason, he suddenly seemed a bit nervous.
Vaguely, however, there seemed to be some expectation as well.
Richelle already knew about this incident last night.
From a personal perspective, she actually did not agree with Timothy’s approach.
Roy was an adult male, and he couldn’t remain single for the rest of his life just because he had a son, right?
However, judging by what Timmy and Timothy had said last night, it was not difficult to see that Timmy was extremely against Roy going on a blind date.
Timothy was probably influenced by his elder brother and was also strongly opposed to Roy’s blind date.
“Mr. Lewis, do you want me to talk to Timmy about this?”
In her opinion, Roy, being such an outstanding man, did not need to attend blind dates at all.
And the fact that he specifically brought up this matter to her, perhaps it was because his son’s opposition made him worried.
Roy didn’t quite understand her meaning and looked at her curiously, “Talk? What about?”
Richelle did not realize she had misunderstood Roy’s words, “About the blind date! Mr. Lewis, you don’t have to worry too much. Timmy is just having a hard time accepting the situation for now. I will talk to him and make him understand that even if you have new relationships or marriages, he will always be your most beloved son.”
At this moment, Roy was not only disappointed but also somewhat angry.
He slightly furrowed his brows, narrowed his eyes, and his expression turned a bit gloomier than usual.
“I didn’t ask you to talk to him about that!”
“Huh?!” Richelle was now baffled, if not discussing this, then what was the meaning of his words?
Could it be that it was just a casual mention?
However, based on her understanding of Roy, he was a man of few words, and as long as he spoke, it was generally not meaningless but with a purpose in mind.
“So you mentioned the blind date and Timmy being upset…”
Richelle still wanted to figure out what Roy was trying to convey.
However, Roy’s expression turned cold, “Forget it, it’s not important, and you don’t need to bother about it.”
Since the boss said there was no need to bother, Richelle naturally dared not ask or meddle further.
Although, she had intended to talk to Timmy initially.
But after his cold response, she suddenly realized the reality.
When it came to Timmy, she had never fulfilled her responsibility as a mother, so she had no right to interfere in his life or make decisions for him.
As for the matter between Timmy and Roy Lewis, it was a problem between father and son, not her place as a doctor or teacher to interfere.
The atmosphere in the living room was freezing cold due to Roy Lewis’s intimidating aura.
Richelle Dunn felt restless and looked around, trying to find Uncle Axel or Mrs. Collins to break the ice.
However, she couldn’t find any of the people who usually bustled around in the house.
Little did she know that, at some point, everyone in the Lewis household, from Uncle Axel and Mrs. Collins to the cooks and drivers, now regarded her as half the head of the household.
One reason was Timmy’s reliance and trust in her, which even exceeded his trust in his own father, Roy Lewis.
The second reason was that Roy Lewis treated her exceptionally well.
Others might not notice this special treatment.
However, for those like Uncle Axel and Mrs. Collins who had been with Roy Lewis for so many years, they found it strange at first, but now took it as ordinary.
Thus, as long as Richelle Dunn was around, both Uncle Axel and Mrs. Collins would naturally avoid her, allowing Roy Lewis and her more opportunities to be alone together.
“Sigh… I’ll go wake Timmy up…”
Richelle Dunn couldn’t stand the stifling atmosphere any longer, so she quietly spoke and walked upstairs.
Roy Lewis’s gaze followed her figure as she ascended the stairs until she turned left into a corridor.
Richelle Dunn felt like she was walking on pins and needles until she finally reached Timmy’s bedroom door and let out a long sigh of relief.
As she pushed the door open, she saw Timothy sitting in bed, daydreaming.
He looked as if he had just woken up and his brain was still in the process of rebooting.
“Baby, good morning!”
“Mommy, good morning…”
Richelle Dunn went over and picked up Timothy, heading straight for the bathroom.
After brushing his teeth, Timothy followed Richelle Dunn downstairs with high spirits.
Roy Lewis’s face finally softened a bit when he saw his son, and the two exchanged morning greetings before going to the dining room for breakfast.
As usual, Richelle stayed in the living room to catch up on the news.
The stock price of Dunn Group was still falling and had been hitting the daily limit for several consecutive days.
However, in Richelle’s opinion, there was still a lot of room for the stock to fall further.
Hugo Camrey had been calling her these past few days, asking when to buy in.
By the way, he also complained about how difficult and annoying Jayden Dunn was to deal with.
At eight o’clock, Richelle’s phone rang.
She looked at it and saw that it was again Hugo Camrey.
She naturally stood up and walked out to the balcony with the phone, then closed the balcony door behind her.
“Richelle, I’m about to be driven crazy by Jayden Dunn!”
As Richelle had so many daily tasks and dealt with a lot of people, Hugo Camrey had been holding the phone for communicating with Jayden Dunn since returning from Lordon.
However, Jayden had been persistently trying to arrange a meeting with Hugo Camrey and Richelle to discuss investment matters.
Richelle grinned somewhat gleefully, “What can you do? It’s only a blue-and-white porcelain worth millions of dollars that Megan Linwood broke. If she had smashed the one worth US$ 68,340,550, I’m afraid Jayden wouldn’t have survived from the rescue room that day!”
It wasn’t until the next day that Richelle found out that Jayden had suffered a cerebral hemorrhage due to Megan Linwood’s extravagant actions.
Fortunately, he received timely medical treatment, which saved his life.
“Yeah, if he really died just like that, you would have saved yourself a lot of trouble!”
On this side, Richelle and Hugo Camrey were chatting quite harmoniously.
In the living room, after finishing breakfast, Roy Lewis led his son out of the dining room. Both father and son instinctively looked around the living room for Richelle Dunn.
Then, Roy Lewis’s gaze fell on Richelle Dunn, who was leaning against the railing on the balcony outside, speaking and laughing softly with a tender expression on her face.
His eyes suddenly deepened with an unfathomable look!
