Chapter 367: Chapter 363:1 Knew At First Sight That It Must Be Her!
Translator: 549690339
Richelle Dunn and the three children left with Roy Lewis after lunch at the Lewis residence, only staying for a short while.
The purpose of Richelle’s visit was, indeed, as Roy had said, to proclaim her sovereignty.
Since the purpose had been achieved, and both she and Roy were not idle people, naturally, there was no need to waste time staying any longer.
However, when she left, she didn’t rush home but instead took the three children to a bookstore.
When Timothy and Tiffany were still wearing masks in front of Roy, it had become a luxury for Richelle to take all three children out at the same time.
After returning from South Asia, she didn’t have to worry about this, but as she was busy dealing with the matters of the Dunn Group, she hadn’t taken the children out for some fresh air.
Today was a perfect opportunity to take them out and let them pick out some books they liked.
Richelle herself hadn’t had a good stroll in the bookstore for a long time.
Last time she and Roy went together, their visit was delayed by an elevator accident. The next time they came back, she quickly bought the books she had chosen on the computer without looking around in detail.
This time, accompanied by two bodyguards, she took the three children from the first to the third floor of the bookstore, filling the shopping cart with books.
When checking out, she secretly rejoiced that Uncle Axel insisted on having both bodyguards accompany them on this outing.
Speaking of these bodyguards, Roy was worried that the Dunn family might take advantage of the chaos to do something, so now, not only the children, but even Richelle would be accompanied by bodyguards when she went out.
Richelle didn’t like this arrangement, but in the face of her safety, her dislike was of little importance.
Not long after Richelle took the kids away, Sherrina Kingston hurriedly ran to the CEO’s office to find Roy.
She didn’t even knock, just pushing the door open and entering.
“Roy…”
With a wronged tone, she walked over, her eyes red.
Roy didn’t look at her. He picked up the phone on the table and said, “Nathan Caroule, come here for a moment.”
After putting down the phone, he pointed his chin towards the small living room.
“Sit down, I have something to say to you.”
Sherrina sat down with an uneasy expression on her face; just then, Nathan entered the room.
“Master, what do you need?”
Only then did Roy come out from behind his desk, “Sherrina and I have something to talk about, sit nearby and do whatever you want.”
Nathan exclaimed with confusion, “Master, if you have something to talk about, wouldn’t it be inconvenient for me to be here?”
Although Nathan already knew Sherrina had feelings for Master Lewis, he could also guess what Roy would talk about with Sherrina next.
But in any case, Sherrina was a girl, and he should give her a little face, right?
Sherrina, of course, wanted to spend more time alone with Roy, so she hurriedly agreed.
“Yeah, Roy, Nathan is busy, let him go and work.”
Roy sat down on the single sofa farthest from Sherrina, as if he hadn’t heard their conversation.
“When I converse with a member of the opposite sex who likes me in a closed space, I think I, as a non-single person, should know how to avoid suspicion, right?”
After these words, not only did Sherrina’s face change, but even Nathan was startled.
He looked at Roy in surprise, thinking, “Bloody hell, do you have to be so ruthless? This is a direct slap on Sherrina’s face.”
Master, even if you want to show loyalty to Dr. Dunn, there’s no need to be so severe towards a friend who likes you, right?
However, Nathan soon understood that Sherrina’s treatment was not undeserved.
“Roy, I…”
Roy’s expression was cold. “Sherrina, it’s not your fault that you like me, and it doesn’t mean I’m great or noble. If you confessed your feelings to me directly, I would reject you with regret and then tell you that you have a girlfriend.”
“Of course, if you don’t want to confess, please be aware of your role as a secret admirer and don’t disturb my life. Because, even though you like me, I have no obligation to reciprocate in any way.”
Sherrina turned pale, “Roy, that day, I invited you to the coffee shop because I wanted to confess to you, but you didn’t come.”
Nathan couldn’t help but inwardly curse, wishing he could find a hole to hide in.
Roy was calm, “My not going is actually a tactful rejection.”
Sherrina’s hands, resting on her lap, began to tremble slightly, “Roy, why? I always feel that no one understands you better than me, and no one is more suited for you.”
Nathan listened to Sherrina’s self-righteous words and couldn’t help but cringe.
Young lady, what gave you such self-confidence?
Roy’s reaction, as the person involved, was much calmer than Nathan’s.
“It’s just your opinion, Sherrina. I’m a normal man. I’m not indifferent to women, nor am I emotionally dull. I didn’t talk about love or romance in the past, just because I hadn’t met someone who I absolutely couldn’t live without at first sight!”
“And Richelle Dunn is that one and only person who caught my eye and who I can’t live without!”
