Roy Lewis didn’t know how he felt after reading all of this material. All he knew was that he was either very angry or very sad at the moment.
He tightly pursed his lips and furrowed his brows, staring intently at the “warning” Harris Dunn had sent him on the screen.
“Hehl”
All the myriad emotions entangled in Roy’s mind, including the anger, resentment, and terrible impulse to destroy everything, were all condensed in a sudden, short burst of cold laughter.
Nathan Caroule, who had been standing extremely nervously on the other side of the desk, felt a shiver down his spine when he heard that cold laugh.
“Sir?”
Roy Lewis ignored him, his deep eyes still fixed on the screen.
“Sir, are you alright?”
Nathan Caroule asked anxiously, taking a step forward.
“I’m fine, leave me alone!”
Roy’s tone, as usual, was calm and indifferent.
However, Nathan grew more worried the calmer Roy seemed.
Harris’s email had been sent to his inbox around two o’clock in the morning.
When Nathan woke up early that day, he opened it without thinking, and the content of the email scared him to death!
He rushed here as quickly as possible, taking an Uber because he was afraid that his emotional turmoil would make driving unsafe.
Even as an outsider, he was shocked by the “truth” revealed in the provided documents and couldn’t imagine how Roy, deeply in love at the time, would react after seeing that information.
“Sir, I think we can’t just blindly believe what Harris is saying…”
Nathan could vaguely feel the suppressed anger in Roy and tried to stand up for Richelle.
“Get out!”
The betrayed and enraged Roy, with his muddled mind, couldn’t hear his advice and immediately cut him off.
Seeing no other choice, Nathan left the room with a heavy heart.
He was deeply concerned about Roy and wanted to stay by his side, but soon received a phone call from the engineering department about a severe accident that required his attention.
As soon as Nathan stepped out, Richelle walked in the door.
Not finding anyone in the living room, she asked Uncle Axel.
“Where is Mr. Lewis?”
Uncle Axel, unaware of the dispute that had just arisen between his master and Nathan, thought they were discussing work matters in the study as usual.
“The master is busy in the study. Nathan came by earlier, but he left in a hurry.”
Richelle thought Roy was working, so she decided to wait for him in the living room.
As for the bizarre secrets she had to reveal to him, she thought it was best to wait until he had eaten breakfast before discussing them.
However, Uncle Axel, as always, tried to create opportunities for Richelle and his master to interact, so he quickly brought tea and snacks.
“Dr. Dunn, the chef says breakfast will be about 10 minutes late today, so could you please bring some tea and snacks to the master first?”
Richelle knocked on the door of the study with a tray in hand, but she didn’t receive the expected response.
She knocked again and then called out.
“Mr. Lewis?”
“Come in!”
Finally, she got a reply, but she couldn’t shake the feeling that he seemed to be in a bad mood.
As Richelle walked in holding the tray, she saw Roy standing tall by the floor-to-ceiling window. He stood with his arms crossed and hands clasped to his chest, gazing out at the garden.
He exuded an aura that seemed to say “stay away from me.”
Richelle was surprised and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you tired?”
In her memory, Roy had never experienced such pensive moments standing by the window. It seemed he really dealt with some tricky situations recently.
Roy did not turn around and just calmly replied with a “hmm.”
“You should rest a little later if you’re tired. Being careless is not an option.” Richelle walked over and placed the tray on the coffee table, “Uncle Axel said breakfast will be to minutes late today, so he asked me to bring you some snacks and tea first…”
“Richelle Dunn!”
Roy suddenly turned around and interrupted her.
Richelle, who was still bending over, inexplicably felt a chill run down her spine.
She looked up and met Roy’s deep and unfathomable eyes.
For no reason, she suddenly felt a bit flustered.
“Roy Lewis, has something happened?”
She didn’t know if it was an illusion, but she seemed to see the same hostility and wariness in his eyes as when they had first met!
And, disgust!
She frowned and strode towards him.
Roy Lewis gestured to her to sit down.
“Sit down, I have something to ask you!”
Instead of answering her directly, he walked over with a solemn expression, and sat down on the single sofa by the floor-to-ceiling window.
Richelle Dunn felt uneasy, and actually, she had urgent matters she wanted to tell him when she came over this morning.
“Well…”, she didn’t know what Roy Lewis wanted to ask, but she was eager for her own explanation, feeling she should clarify what she had written on the note yesterday, “Yesterday, I left you a message, saying I have something to talk to you today…”
In her opinion, there was nothing more important than this at the moment!
However, Roy Lewis interrupted her expressionlessly.
“That’s not important!”
At this moment, Roy Lewis exuded a chilling aura.
Yesterday, he was still a gentle man, but now, he seemed a complete stranger to her.
For a moment, Richelle Dunn couldn’t refute his words and just stared blankly at Roy Lewis, who seemed like a stranger.
“Richelle Dunn, I ask you, are you the same Richelle Dunn from the Dunns in Lordon?”
Roy Lewis spoke slowly, his dark eyes fixed on her.
Richelle Dunn felt as if she had been hit on the head, she stared at him in astonishment, “I…”
Roy Lewis’s eyes suddenly became sharp, like a judge sentencing a criminal, and his tone became extremely cold and determined.
“You don’t need to explain, just answer me, yes or no!”
Roy Lewis had never been so angry in his life!
It wasn’t that he hadn’t been betrayed before, but those who had betrayed him had ended up with a fate worse than death.
Yet with this woman, he didn’t even have to question her, he could directly bring about her doom.
But he still asked!
Knowing that the truth would slap him hard in the face.
But still, one slap wasn’t enough for him. He now had to willingly extend his face, for Richelle Dunn to slap him again.
Because only then could he truly give up on her!
Richelle’s eyes were filled with endless sorrow, she wanted to explain clearly, but Roy Lewis said she only had to answer yes or no.
Although the trial had just begun.
Richelle Dunn had already foreseen the ultimately tragic outcome.
Because the current Roy Lewis, deep down, no longer trusted her!
From the moment he questioned her in his superior interrogator’s demeanor, he had already sentenced her to death!
Richelle Dunn’s heart seemed to die in that instant.
With a grim expression, she struggled to nod.
“Yes!”
Roy Lewis’s cold eyes narrowed slightly, “After I refused you, did you no longer want to continue treating me? But later on, because of Timmy, you changed your mind, in other words, you approached me because of Timmy, right?”
Richelle Dunn closed her eyes in pain, this matter, once explained, was actually very long and complicated.
And what she was going to talk about with him on the note from yesterday, was in fact this matter.
“Roy Lewis, it’s not what you think…”
But her anxious defense, in Roy Lewis’s eyes, appeared as a desperate attempt.
His frosty eyes interrupted her, “Richelle Dunn, all you need to do is answer me, yes or no!”
He didn’t want to hear her evasions and lies!
Richelle Dunn stared at him deeply, sighing in despair.
“Yes!”
Roy Lewis clenched his fists, his nails digging into his palms, he ground his teeth furiously, his voice hoarse, and even quivering a little.
“Richelle Dunn, did you approach me and Timmy to avenge the Dunns, yes or no?”
