Chapter 147: Chapter 143: What You Like Isn’t Richelie?

Translator: 549690339

In the evening, after Roy Lewis had dinner at Richelie Dunn’s house and returned home with Timmy, he left again shortly after.

Roy used to be very busy with social engagements, but his health had deteriorated rapidly over the past six months. Consequently, he had to either cancel many engagements or ask Nathan Caroule to take his place. In any case, he didn’t go out much at night now.

So when Uncle Axel saw him change into his outdoor clothes, he asked.

“Master, are you going out for a social engagement?”

Roy nodded, “Yeah, I have something to do. I’ll be back soon.”

At half-past nine, Hugo Camrey, lying like a corpse on the second floor, received a call from the front desk that a boss surnamed Lewis was looking for him.

Hugo shuddered. A big boss surnamed Lewis? Roy Lewis?

Did Richelle Dunn guess wrong? Was Roy Lewis here to seek justice for the Dunns?

As Hugo hurriedly searched for a strategy to deal with the situation, he slightly tidied himself up and composed himself before slowly going downstairs.

Turning the corner, he saw a man standing tall in a long coat, exuding an aura of nobility that didn’t fit in with the small internet cafe.

Hugo welcomed him, “Master Lewis, what urgent matter brings you here?”

Roy turned to him and gave a slight nod.

“Mr. Camrey, is there a place where we can talk?”

There were quite a few people in Hugo’s internet cafe, which made it noisy, but he was the only one upstairs, so it was very quiet.

“If you don’t mind, could we go upstairs and chat?”

Roy pointed to a coffee shop across the street, “Let’s go there!”

Hugo had no objections, and the two entered the coffee shop and got a private room.

As a regular customer, Hugo sat down and recommended two types of coffee to Roy, who shook his head.

“Richelle doesn’t allow me to drink coffee. I’ll have a pot of tea.”

Hugo was caught off guard, rather speechless, “Tea will keep you awake, too!”

Roy couldn’t possibly back down in this situation, “Richelle makes a special flower tea blend that helps with sleep!”

Even with great self-control, Hugo couldn’t help but lose his patience at this point.

“Mr. Lewis, did you come all the way here just to show off?”

Roy calmly denied it, “I’m simply telling the truth.”

Hugo rolled his eyes, “Please, Mr. Lewis, just tell me what you want!”

Roy stopped beating around the bush and got straight to the point.

“Do you like Kiara Dunn?”

When Hugo and Richelle decided to scare Kiara, they never expected Roy Lewis to be involved.

After all, neither of them ever thought that Kiara would be so scared that she would go crazy after just a few ghost appearances!

However, once Kiara became a hot topic in Lordon, Hugo anticipated Roy’s reaction.

Thus, even though Roy’s sudden appearance and direct question caught him off guard, his expression remained natural.

“Yes, I fell in love with her at first sight at a banquet a few days ago.”

Roy’s eyes were filled with disdain, “Aren’t you in love with Richelle?”

Hugo shrugged with a smile, “I do like Richelle, but she doesn’t like me. I don’t need to remain loyal to her, right?”

With his playboy demeanor, Hugo raised an eyebrow at Roy.

As for Roy, the worse Hugo behaved, the less of a threat he posed.

However, Roy’s visit today was not about finding out who Hugo liked.

“Indeed, you don’t have to be. Did you know that Kiara Dunn has a cousin named Richelle Dunn?”

Roy thought about this for an entire afternoon, feeling that Hugo played a rather subtle role in the whole affair.

Hugo didn’t expect Roy’s focus to be on this, and his heart panicked a little.

However, he quickly calmed down, feigning surprise.

“Also named Richelle Dunn? No way, what a coincidence, right?”

Roy Lewis stared at him, trying to read any inconsistencies from his face, “You didn’t know?”

“I didn’t know!” Hugo Camrey shook his head and then his face showed a trace of excitement, “That’s really too coincidental. I wonder if Richelle would try to find that person and see if she could be friends with that other Richelle Dunn.”

Roy Lewis couldn’t make anything out, and his smiling face didn’t seem like he was talking about someone who had passed away.

“There’s no need. That Richelle Dunn died in an accident a few years ago.”

Hugo Camrey’s eyes widened, his mouth hung open for a while before he spoke.

“Holy shit, so when Kiara screamed ‘ghost, ghost,’ it was because she saw her cousin?”

At the time Kiara was shouting Richelle Dunn’s name, there were no other people in the garden besides Hugo Camrey and Richelle. So, Hugo was sure he had no knowledge of this.

Roy Lewis nodded, “That’s right. What she saw was Richelle Dunn, who had become an evil spirit.”

“Damn it!”

Hugo Camrey suddenly stood up, “That’s way too creepy! No, I must find someone to perform a ritual for me.”

If Richelle were here at this moment, she would surely award Hugo an Oscar for his acting.

Roy Lewis waited until he calmed down a bit, then spoke again.

“Jayden Dunn has gone to seek justice from your uncle, you didn’t know?”

Hugo Camrey frowned and shook his head, “No, my mom doesn’t get along well with my grandfather and uncle.”

Although they hadn’t been getting along years ago, actually, the relationship between the Camrey and Caroules families was now quite close.

Firstly, Mrs. Camrey had learned to temper her temper.

Secondly, the Caroules’ patriarch was getting older, and he realized that the time he had left with his children would only shorten. Gradually, he started to treat his daughter and son-in-law with a smile.

These things, of course, Roy Lewis wouldn’t know.

So, he only assumed that Hugo hadn’t heard the news yet and decided to remind him.

“Jayden Dunn probably hit a wall with your uncle, so he might come to ask your father for help. You should just give your family a heads up so they have a strategy in place.”

Hugo Camrey was a friend of Richelle, at least officially. So, Roy wanted to give Richelle some respect by giving him a warning.

Hugo expressed his gratitude but was secretly puzzled.

Hadn’t Roy always treated him as a love rival? Why did Hugo feel like Roy was helping him now?

“Don’t tell Richelle about this. The person with the same name as her had a tragic life.”

At this point, Hugo realized that Roy’s purpose for coming here was not only to probe into his relationship with the “deceased” Richelle, but also to specifically remind him not to mention the late Richelle in front of his Richelle.

Apparently, Roy’s feelings for Richelle were deeper than Hugo had thought.

“Don’t worry, I won’t say a word.”

Although, Hugo and Roy were love rivals.

They shared a common stance.

That was, neither of them wanted to see Richelle hurt in any way.

Having said what he needed to say, Roy Lewis paid the bill and prepared to leave.

Suddenly, a question occurred to Hugo, “Master Lewis, are you not afraid that I’ll tell Richelle about your visit tonight?”

Roy Lewis looked at him expressionlessly and replied calmly.

“It’s up to you. However, this matter has nothing to do with Richelle. She just happens to share the same name as someone else. If you bring it up to her, are you trying to brag about your romantic escapades?”

After he finished speaking, Roy Lewis got up and left.

Hugo was left speechless.

He stared at Roy Lewis’s retreating figure with a wry smile, helpless.

This Roy Lewis, he’s treating Richelle like an innocent child to be protected!

There was even a faint hint of territoriality in his manner..
