Chapter 94: Chapter 90: Sir, you and Dr. Dunn, alone as man and woman…
Translator: 549690339
As for Kiara Dunn, Roy Lewis didn’t ask his son directly but sent someone to inquire instead.
Father and son finished their breakfast and walked our of the living room, just as Richelle Dunn had finished signing the revised contract.
It was only then that Roy said to his son, “Timmy, Dr. Dunn will be away on a business trip for a week, so you should stay at home and study or play this week.”
The little master’s face immediately darkened, but he didn’t ask Roy anything. Instead, he looked at Richelle with an unhappy expression.
“Where are you going?”
Realizing that this wasn’t good, Richelle glared at Roy before quickly walking over and squatting down in front of her eldest son.
“Timmy, there’s a patient in a very critical condition who can’t be transported to Kindur, so I have to rush there.11
Little Master frowned, looking at her suspiciously, “Does surgery take a week?”
Richelle patted his head, “Of course, the surgery doesn’t take a week, but as their primary doctor, I have to be responsible for the patient. 1 can only come back when I see that they’re out of danger after the surgery, right?”
She had prepared this excuse the night before.
The little master stared at her for several seconds before reluctantly nodding. “Alright…”
Roy and Richelle had just breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the little master say, “Then why do I have to stay home? Can’t 1 go play with Timothy and Tifanny?”
Not daring to answer on his own this time, Roy looked to Richelle and handed her the authority to explain.
As for this, Richelle couldn’t think of any particular solution at first, but after discussing it with Mrs. Walker, she got a good idea.
“Mrs. Walker’s daughter is getting married, and she wants her to bring Timothy and Tifanny as flower children. They probably won’t be back for a week.”
Although this solution would completely offend her eldest son, there was no better option.
As expected, when the little master heard this, he immediately pouted and angrily sat down on the sofa.
“I want to be a flower child too!”
Roy thought he had misheard because just a few months ago, his cousin’s son had wanted the little master to be a flower child at his wedding, but he had disdainfully said it was boring and greatly offended the child.
Richelle had no choice but to continue coaxing, “Mrs. Walker can’t take care of all three of you, sweetheart.”
Little master pouted, “Then I ll just bring Mrs. Collins!’1
He was clearly resentful about his siblings leaving him behind.
Richelle said everything she could, bur seeing him still pouting, she helplessly looked to Roy.
As Roy saw that even Richelle couldn’t handle his son, he reluctantly stepped in to help coax him.
“Timmy, this time Mrs. Walker left in a hurry and didn’t prepare anything, so she didn’t bring you along. Next time Timothy and Tifanny go out. Daddy will make arrangements in advance, okay?”
Empty promises from his father brought no joy to rhe little master, who then turned to look at Richelle.
Obviously, he understood that only his mommy’s words mattered when it came to future matters!
How could Richelle dare to make such a hollow promise to her eldest son?
If she said something that couldn’t be fulfilled and went back on her word, he would hate her for the rest of his life.
“Sweetheart, Auntie promises to tell you bedtime stories every night, alright?”
Lil’ Master’s eyes sparkled, “Really?”
Richelle nodded seriously, “Of course! just tell Auntie when you want to sleep, and she’ll call you on video chat every day, alright?”
Little master finally looked a bit happier after receiving Richelle’s promise.
Roy, seeing his son finally appeased, called Nathan Caroule into his study.
Upon entering, Nathan, who had witnessed everything, couldn’t help but tease. “Master, I almost thought that Dr. Dunn was Little Master’s real mother.” Roy didn’t refute it for once. Instead, he agreed.
“I think so too. Compared to Kiara, Dr. Dunn and Timmy seem to get along better, and Timmy seems to rely on her a lot.”
Nathan clicked his tongue, laughing.
“This isn’t just reliance! And, Master, have you noticed? Dr. Dunn is also very fond of Little Master. The way she talks and looks at him while coaxing him is exactly like a mother with her son.”
Roy sighed, “Unfortunately, she isn’t.”
Roy’s words not only surprised Nathan but also himself.
“Master, could it be that you have feelings for Dr. Dunn…”
Roy Lewis shook his head, “You’re overthinking it. 1 have no other thoughts about her!”
If he felt any regret, it was mainly because he felt too guilty towards his son.
So, he hoped that his son could have a mother who truly loves and dotes on him.
Nathan Caroule carefully observed him for a few moments before shaking his head.
“Master, could it be that you’re too close to see the truth?”
In Nathan’s opinion, Dr. Dunn had been breaking all kinds of rules set by his boss since the beginning.
And the only person he thought could make the boss break his rules had been the young master.
But Richelle Dunn was obviously the second one.
It was just like when the young master got angry earlier. The boss naturally shoved the trouble onto Dr. Dunn, as if a father who couldn’t manage his naughty child would let the mother handle it.
From his point of view, the two of them behaving together looked like an old married couple.
However, the boss seemed to be completely unaware of this.
Roy Lewis shot him a warning glance, “Don’t project your vulgar thoughts onto me!”
Fearing his bonus would be deducted again, Nathan hurriedly raised his hands to clarify, “Right, right, I’m the vulgar one. Master Lewis’s actions are all just because of his noble character and willingness to help others.”
Roy Lewis cast an annoyed glance at him, “If you have something to say, say it. If not, get lost!”
Nathan no longer dared to comment on the boss’s private feelings. He took out his iPad and reported several important matters one by one.
After the report, he asked, “Master, are we still going to stall the Dunns for the collaboration?”
If, initially, Roy had suppressed the collaboration with the Dunn Group because of his son,
Now, there was another more important reason.
“Yeah, keep stalling. And inform the business department that there’s a 95% chance this collaboration will be aborted.”
Nathan was at a loss for words. Master, you could just say the collaboration would be aborted. Why mention a 95% chance with a slim 5% hope to console anyone?
However, while secretly complaining, he still had to do his duty to dig for the gossip.
“Master, what has the Dunn family done to get on your bad side?”
Roy Lewis shot him a glance, “Do 1 seem like the kind of person who can’t separate personal matters from business?”
Nathan secretly rolled his eyes. Indeed, wasn’t Dr. Dunn just an example?
However, these words he dared not say again. His bonus was already close to being completely gone. Any more deductions could mean going hungry.
“Of course not, Master!”
Having seen the information in the past few days, Roy Lewis now had enough reasons to abandon the collaboration project.
However, it wasn’t time to disclose this information yet, so rhe cooperation would have to be stalled for the time being.
After discussing the Dunn matter, the two talked about other business matters. Finally, Roy Lewis instructed Nathan once again to find a few reliable bodyguards to follow Richelle Dunn.
Nathan couldn’t understand, “Master, couldn’t you just let Dr. Dunn live here and not go out? Or let her go on vacation with her children directly?”
Roy Lewis glanced at him indifferently, “Are you saying I’m afraid of the
T hompsons? And this incident is something Richelle was innocently dragged into. What right do I have to demand her not to go anywhere?”
When the Thompsons caused trouble, letting Richelle face it was out of desperation. For that, Roy Lewis felt extremely guilty and annoyed.
Now that there were even more consecutive troubles, though he had enough confidence to protect her family’s safety, he still felt they had to run around and suffer because of it.
Nathan realized that he should keep his opinions to himself when it came to Richelle Dunn.
“Master, are you going to discontinue your treatment?”
Roy Lewis looked at him strangely, “Why would I discontinue it?”
Without waiting for Nathan to ask further, he continued, “No matter where she lives, I’ll go there.”
Nathan coughed, “Isn’t that living together as an unmarried couple…”
Roy Lewis shot him a glance, “What are you thinking? Isn’t it the same when living at home?”
How can it be the same? At home, there’s Uncle Axel and the servants. At a hotel, it would be…
Tsk, tsk!
Forget it. Master, you’re the boss.. If you say it’s the same, then it’s the same!
