It had been almost half a month since the children last saw Roy Lewis.
Thus, even the cool Timmy and the cheerful Timothy broke down when they finally saw Roy Lewis on the screen.
Richelle Dunn reserved the space for them and sat aside, browsing through the notebook that Denise Munni entrusted her with.
Technology wasn’t as advanced as it is now twenty years ago.
Back in those days, people had to write down things by hand.
Because of this, Richelle now has the opportunity to fondly remember her parents through their handwriting.
At first, Richelle just wanted to use this opportunity to reflect upon her parents, but as she kept reading, she became increasingly absorbed.
Roy Lewis had been talking to the children for nearly an hour, and all this time, she remained nestled on the couch, completely engrossed in the notebook.
After finishing his conversation with the children, Roy Lewis had to call her a few times to pull her out of the world within the notebook.
“Done talking?”
Roy Lewis nodded, “They need to go to school!”
Most primary schools start their day early in the morning.
But their youngsters typically start at nine.
Richelle hummed, “In a few days when you feel better, you should let them come see you at the hospital. It looked like they were about to cry.”
Roy Lewis sighed deeply.
Richelle looked at him confusedly, “What’s the matter? You’re unhappy about seeing the children? Why the sigh after the conversation?”
Roy Lewis pulled her closer, gently holding her hand.
“I used to feel that I was indifferent to familial love. Even though I truly cared for Timmy, I wasn’t able to get close to him.”
“My father died early, and my mother was indifferent to me. She might have been alive, but in reality, her heart had died with my father.”
“Therefore, I never expected any family affection. When Timmy was sent back, I was just relieved that I didn’t need to get married to preserve the Lewis lineage. As he grew older, we developed some feelings, but not as strong as they are now. Misseeing him for a few days, I feel like there’s a hole in my heart that nothing can fill.”
Richelle hummed, “So, blood ties only give you similar genes, but feelings need to be cultivated through companionship.”
Roy Lewis pinched her hand, “Yes, thank you for not only giving me the sweet taste of love but also allowing me to experience the beauty of family love.” Richelle did not tease him, pushing him to the balcony to breathe some fresh air, and listened to him change the topic.
“What’s recorded in your parents’ notebook? You seem very absorbed in it!”
Richelle didn’t hide anything, “I just happened to read about how my parents started their business from scratch, gradually built an industrial empire.” Roy Lewis leaned back, scrutinizing her closely for a few moments.
Richelle asked surprisingly, “What’s the matter?”
Roy Lewis placed his hand on hers, gently patting.
Richelle understood then.
“You’re worried that I’ll start crying again?”
Roy Lewis didn’t make a sound, obviously he was silently admitting it.
Richelle glanced at him, “I just couldn’t control myself yesterday. If I break down every time I read it, would you throw away the notebook while I’m asleep?”
Roy Lewis smiled, “I wouldn’t throw it away. But I might hide it, and only let you read a little bit at a time. Otherwise, who can handle the sort of crying like last night.”
Richelle hummed thoughtfully, “No need to worry, Now, I think my parents were really amazing. Even after twenty-some years, their business philosophy is still relevant today. No wonder Jayden has been able to keep the Dunn Group afloat after taking over. It must be thanks to the foundation my parents laid.” Roy Lewis knew what she intended to do with those notes, “If you find any suspicious parts, let me know. I will have someone verify and investigate.” However, saying verifying those notes was like finding a needle in a haystack.
But neither Richelle nor Roy Lewis had any intention of giving up.
“Roy Lewis, do you mind if I ask a question about your father?”
Roy Lewis nodded, “As long as it’s about someone’s personal life, you can ask me anything.”
Still, Richelle hesitated for a moment before asking.
“You avenged your father’s enemies yourself, didn’t you? How old were you then?”
Roy Lewis had a rough idea of her question and answered her without thinking.
“My father was involved with many people. I was nearly twenty when I finally managed to bring them all to justice.”
Richelle leaned against him, rubbing her face against his.
Roy Lewis stroked her face, “Don’t worry, I’m fine. As I said, my relationship with my parents was indifferent, so seeking revenge for me was mostly about not bearing the humiliation.”
“You’re different. So, don’t worry. No matter how troublesome it is, I’ll help you find the real culprit and the truth to serve justice to you and your parents.” Richelle hummed, “Let’s put that aside for now. I’ve talked to Hugo Camrey about it. He said he would talk to his uncle to see if they can find out anything..”
