After calming down, Roy Lewis’s tone unconsciously softened.
Of course, he still cared a little. After all, with his male intuition, he naturally sensed the other party’s special intentions towards Richelle Dunn.
Otherwise, no one would propose a partnership to someone they hadn’t seen in years and knew nothing about her current situation.
However, after Kenneth Bailes quickly retreated to a safe distance, he changed his perspective and secretly assessed him.
This man was once an acquaintance of Richelle Dunn and knew her quite well.
He had a good relationship with Richelle, had no malice towards her, and even showed considerable goodwill.
And Richelle was obviously friendly towards him.
In other words, he was one of the few friends Richelle Dunn had in her past twenty years of life.
Roy Lewis admitted that even now, he was still a little jealous.
But he couldn’t bear to drive away the few remaining friends Richelle had.
So, when the atmosphere eased, he asked Kenneth Bailes again.
(“Were there things like being a top student of some famous mentor in your college?”)
He had already adapted well to Richelle’s habit of revealing her outstanding talents over time and expected a positive answer.
As expected, Kenneth Bailes nodded in surprise.
(“Wow, Master Lewis, did you guess it? Or did she tell you herself?”)
Roy Lewis gripped Richelle’s hand and glanced at her.
(“No, she doesn’t talk about these things.”)
Indeed, her arrogance was limited to her personality.
She never boasted about her professional achievements. Even though she had made remarkable achievements in the field of medicine that drew admiration from most professionals, she remained the diligent Dr. Dunn, working quietly for her patients’ interests.
“That’s true! She doesn’t like to talk about these things. Master Lewis, you probably don’t know, but she won many awards when she was in school!”)
Kenneth Bailes was a smart man. If he had ever harbored any extravagant thoughts about Richelle a few years ago, after a few years of harsh reality and comparing himself to Roy Lewis at the top of the young men in the Federation, he immediately understood that he should nip those thoughts in the bud.
(“Oh? Really?”)
Roy Lewis sometimes felt helpless, but mostly he felt heartbroken.
Richelle Dunn’s past was like a mystery, and she didn’t like to talk about old matters.
Even today, it was the first time she mentioned her parents, betraying her sadness and frustration in front of him.
As for her experiences between childhood and her twenties, he knew nothing but the episodes of betrayal orchestrated by the Dunns.
Of course, she couldn’t be blamed for this.
After all, her past experiences were full of unbearable pain and agony.
Not everyone has the courage to face that pain repeatedly.
People have to move on and live courageously, and for many, that means choosing to forget the pain.
Roy Lewis didn’t want to learn about her past through investigation. He had the patience and time to wait for the day she could face her past pain calmly.
Richelle Dunn showed some helplessness as well. She rested her forehead on her hand, took a breath, and finally nodded in admission.
(“Yes, seven years ago, I designed that technology building for the Lewis Group!”)
That technology building’s design had won the Federation Architecture Design Award that year.
But Richelle thought it was all in the past, and she wasn’t even in that industry anymore. Had it not been for Kenneth Bailes bringing it up, she would have almost forgotten about it.
Roy Lewis looked at her in surprise, “You designed that futuristic technology building?”)
Even today, that technology building still attracted attention and was considered the second landmark building of Kindur by some.
Most importantly, it wasn’t just for show; the interior spaces were not only functional but also very distinctive.
Richelle laughed and nodded, “Yes. I was lucky at the time. When I heard that the Lewis Group was holding a high-priced design competition, I thought I’d try my luck and submit the ideal technology city I’d been building for years.”)
Roy Lewis was genuinely impressed. Just like with medicine, she had casually submitted a design that had defeated many famous competitors and changed her career like it was nothing.
Roy Lewis found more and more that the girl by his side was a true treasure.
In any case, one had to dig to find out, and with every deep dig, more treasure was found.
(“Dr. Dunn, did you really need to formally consult me about adding a wine cabinet and a bar, along with a carpet in our home?”)
Richelle looked at him in confusion, “Of course, you’re my cohabiting partner, not a client. To be honest, if a client asked me to make changes, I wouldn’t do it! But a partner is different. Besides, I’m not an interior designer..”)
