Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu's Passionate Pursuit

Chapter 79: Chapter 75: Are these two really not flirting?

Translator: 549690339

A hint of surprise flashed in Hugo Camrey’s eyes, but he quickly gave a negative answer.

“Sorry, I’m just a small businessman. I only look after my own affairs every day, and I’m not very clear about what’s going on in Kindur.”

Roy Lewis took a deep look at him, nodded, and didn’t ask any further questions.

Richelle Dunn looked at the two of them strangely, feeling that ever since Roy Lewis entered, Hugo seemed a little weird.

As for Roy Lewis, he wasn’t quite like his usual self either.

However, Richelle had never been interested in meddling in other people’s affairs and knew that these two men wouldn’t have much in common. There shouldn’t be any old grudges between them.

“Mr. Lewis, they have some physics questions they don’t understand. Could you help explain them later?”

Richelle thought that it didn’t matter why they were at odds; if she just found something for one of them to do, they naturally wouldn’t have time to pick on each other.

After Richelle and Mrs. Walker finished their tofu pudding, they went back to the kitchen to continue their work, leaving the two grown men and three children in the living room to play.

Roy Lewis had been an excellent student back in the day, so after finishing his tofu pudding, it took him only a few minutes to explain the difficult points clearly to the children, easily completing the task that Richelle had assigned.

Hugo, who was sitting nearby, couldn’t help but feel a little outshone. However, he knew that even if his own circumstances weren’t in consideration, he was bound to lose in terms of inherent pedigree.

Even though Roy Lewis didn’t know that Timothy and Tifanny were his biological children, it was evident that he had a lot of patience and tenderness toward them. To outsiders who didn’t know, it seemed like he was teaching his own children, giving them equal attention and affection.

Neither Roy Lewis nor Richelle, the two people directly involved, might have realized this, but Hugo could see it clearly.

But he couldn’t accept it!

“Mr. Lewis, 1 heard that Richelle is your attending physician. Richelle can sometimes be quite impulsive, so please bear with her.”

Roy Lewis remained poker-faced. After watching the children tidy up their books and run back to the bedroom to play, he finally raised his eyebrows at him.

“Really? I don’t think there’s anything wrong with her personality!”

This was clearly a blatant lie from Roy Lewis, who seemed to have forgotten that during their first meeting with Richelle, her arrogant and flamboyant character had annoyed him.

Now, it was Hugo who annoyed him.

Since Richelle was his personal doctor, logically, he should have been closer to her than Hugo, who was just her friend. How could he have the right to make such requests?

Hugo lazily smiled, “Is that so? Both Richelle and 1 are the kind of people who like to speak our minds and feel uncomfortable if we don’t. We started off arguing because of a misunderstanding, but as they say, there are no real friendships without a fight. Unknowingly, we’ve known each other for more than four years, and our thoughts and ideas are very similar. Basically, we are the same kind of people who enjoy and advocate freedom.”

No matter how outstanding Roy Lewis seemed, his haughty attitude and strict personality were not suitable for someone as straightforward and casual as Richelle.

Roy Lewis could tell that Hugo was flaunting his sense of superiority in front of him.

However, someone as mentally strong as Roy Lewis wouldn’t be shaken by just a few simple sentences from Hugo.

“People always need to interact with different people and see different worlds. What’s the point of being stuck in a circle with the same kind of people, leading the same life every day? Mr. Camrey, don’t you think that such a conservative and single-minded lifestyle is more suitable for retirees?”

Roy Lewis couldn’t understand why someone as outstanding as Richelle would be hanging out with a small internet cafe owner like Hugo.

And they’d known each other for more than four years?

But Richelle had said that she’d only been in Kindur for about a month.

So, had Hugo known Richelle back in South Asia?

Hugo wasn’t going to be easily repelled by Roy Lewis’s aggressive words. “What you said is true, but what are people living for? For comfort, right? Staying with people like ourselves, we can sit when we want to, lie down when we want to, and we have an understanding of each other without guessing, which is less tiring. Don’t you think so?”

Roy Lewis didn’t mean to attack Hugo, but the more the latter spoke, the more it left a bad taste.

“Your thoughts, Mr. Camrey, should be the thoughts of most ordinary people. After all, normal life is tiring enough for ordinary people. But Richelle is no ordinary person. She is a very outstanding doctor and possibly even excels in other fields. She is clearly capable of dealing with various situations in different fields and even enjoys it!”

These words were full of arrogance from Roy Lewis.

His implication was that ordinary people like you could not understand the thoughts and ways of life of outstanding people like us.

Hugo felt a little unconvinced but couldn’t deny that Richelle was indeed a leader in many fields.

Even with her multiple responsibilities, she still managed well and enjoyed herself.

“Mr. Lewis, you’ve known Richelle for less than half a month. Don’t pretend that you know her very well.”

There was suddenly a tense atmosphere between the two men.

Roy Lewis never felt that he knew Richelle well, but Hugo’s flaunting of his closeness with her made him feel very uncomfortable.

His tone became somewhat sour, and his words became more biting.

“Whether or not you understand someone has nothing to do with how long you’ve known them. Mr.. Camrey, you are way too presumptuous to think you truly understand Richelle!”
