Chapter 142: Chapter 138 Richelie Dunn gets pregnant and dies from a difficult childbirth

After saying that, Jayden Dunn suddenly realized that Roy Lewis’s private doctor was also named Richelle Dunn.

“Master Lewis, my niece has been dead for several years…”

This was the first time Roy heard about this, and after the shock, he quickly calmed down. After all, there were too many people with the same name in the world; it was just a coincidence.

Moreover, he never inquired about the affairs of the Dunns. If it weren’t for this Richelle Dunn, he would have just listened to the story of Jayden Dunn’s niece without any reaction.

“What was the cause of death?”

Since the names were the same, he asked one more question.

Jayden hesitated for a while, apparently finding it hard to say.

Roy glanced at him indifferently, and Jayden hurriedly replied.

“Ah, my niece was quite unrestrained, and I don’t know what kind of unsavory people she was involved with. She got pregnant and died during childbirth…” After hearing that, Roy was silent for a moment, then said,

“That’s a misfortune for the family! Mr. Dunn, my condolences.”

These words might sound like comforting ones, but in reality, they were like stabbing Jayden in the heart again.

However, Roy didn’t care. After all, the person who had made his beloved son upset and suffer deserved a few more stabs.

For a moment, Jayden was taken aback. In the past, even if Roy was not friendly to their family, he was always polite and made things as convenient as possible for them in business.

But in just half a month, Roy’s attitude towards them had changed completely.

Not only had their new joint project been put on hold, but it seemed that he couldn’t even be bothered to pretend to be polite anymore.

“Master Lewis, it was indeed Kiara’s fault last time. Could you please forgive her this once, for Timmy’s sake!”

These words should have been spoken earlier, but Roy, who was only in his thirties, had an air of superiority even greater than Mr. Lewis.

His phone calls were blocked, and he never met anyone. Even when he managed to get in during Mr. Lewis’s birthday party, he was hurriedly swept out before he could say anything.

Seeing Roy’s attitude, Jayden knew he had to settle the old matter today, only then he could mention the Camreys’ issue.

Roy was a man who would never let go of any grievance, and now Jayden had presented himself to be the target. There was no way that Roy would just let it go with a few self-critical words.

At the very least, he had to vent his anger before he could move on.

So, he took a sip of tea and said nonchalantly,

“Mr. Dunn, whether or not to forgive is not up to me. As long as Timmy agrees, I don’t care!”

“After all, that’s his mother, and he has no choice but to accept her, even if she’s a beast.”

Jayden’s face turned red and green with embarrassment and anger at Roy’s roundabout accusation. He knew he had no leverage over Roy, so he held back his anger and stammered for a long time before reluctantly saying,

“Master Lewis, Timmy is still a child; there might be some misunderstandings…”

“Ha!”

Roy sneered, “Misunderstanding? I saw your precious daughter picking up a dish and smashing it on my son’s head with my own eyes! My son is a simple child who can be appeased by a few kind words. Do you think I’m a fool who can be deceived by a few words as well?”

As Roy spoke, he picked up the teacup plate beside him and made a motion as if to smash it at Jayden’s face.

Jayden’s face went ashen, and he instinctively ducked down to avoid it.

Roy slammed the plate back onto the table with a loud “bang” and stared coldly at Jayden.

“Mr. Dunn, you knew to dodge, didn’t you? Because you know that if this plate were to hit you hard in the head, you wouldn’t die, but you’d certainly go blind. Do you think it’s something a mother would do? Only a beast would commit such a vile act.”

Today, Jayden Dunn came to ask for Roy Lewis’ help in seeking justice from the Camreys.

However, whether or not he could actually get justice from the Camreys remained to be seen. Instead, he ended up bringing humiliation and scolding upon himself!

Sweat poured down his forehead as he desperately hoped for Roy Lewis to calm down so he could discuss the Camrey family’s issue.

“Master Lewis, what Kiara did was indeed wrong… I’ve severely punished her already, and she knows her mistake…”

Jayden Dunn looked as pitiful as a stray dog, but Roy Lewis remained unmoved with a cold expression.

It was because he had been too trusting of human nature, and always considered the Dunns decent people that he had let his guard down, causing his young son to grow up painfully.

Fortunately, the arrival of Richelle Dunn and her two children brought new light and nourishment to his son’s life. Now, his son was finally beginning to look like the child he should be.

“Mr. Dunn, I’ll say it again, it’s up to Timmy whether or not he wants to forgive. I can’t interfere!”

Roy Lewis’ words seemed to give Jayden Dunn some hope, but both he and Jayden knew the chances of the young master, Timmy, forgiving were very slim.

It was as difficult as trying to reach the sky!

Jayden Dunn pleaded with a mournful face, “Master Lewis…”

Having vented his frustrations, Roy Lewis was no longer interested in listening to Jayden Dunn’s repetitive apologies.

He wasn’t a three-year-old child, and these tearful, repentant words only came across as clumsy and laughable in his eyes, not even enough to entertain him during afternoon tea.

And they were trying to use them as bargaining chips in exchange for forgiveness?

Did he, Roy Lewis, look like a fool?

“Mr. Dunn, it’s been ten minutes. I won’t be able to listen to your nagging any longer!”

With that, he cast a cold, sharp glance over Jayden Dunn, stood up, and walked out.

“Master Lewis, I beg you…” Jayden Dunn reached out to grab Roy Lewis’ wrist, but was stopped by the bodyguard who had followed him in. In desperation, Jayden fell to his knees, “Master Lewis, for the sake of the fact that our Dunn blood still flows in Timmy’s veins…”

Roy Lewis turned around abruptly, his cold brows seemingly frosted over.

“Jayden Dunn, if not for the fact that you contributed to Timmy’s life, you’d all be in hell already!”

Roy Lewis left the desperately begging Jayden Dunn behind, his face full of coldness as he got into the car.

Nathan Caroule had not dared to say a word the entire time. Once he got into the car, he tried his best not to make a sound so as not to get swept up in the pent-up anger of his boss!

It was Roy Lewis who spoke first, “Nathan, look into that niece of Jayden Dunn.”

Nathan Caroule had always been efficient in handling matters. Moreover, Richelle Dunn’s case had caused somewhat of a stir in Lordon a few years ago. Consequently, by the time Roy Lewis returned home and sat down in his study, Nathan had already received the investigation results.

He glanced at them first, “Sir, it’s true what Jayden Dunn said. His niece, Richelle Dunn, disappeared suddenly six years ago. Later, her body was found in the wilderness, dead along with two unborn children. It was said that she led a rather debauched life and no one knew who fathered the child in her belly…” The chill around Roy Lewis lingered. Although it was just an unrelated person, hearing such an ending made him feel uneasy.

He rubbed his temples irritably, waved his hand, and interrupted Nathan impatiently.

“That’s enough, it’s just an unrelated person. There’s no need to mention it again.”

After a pause, he gave a special instruction to Nathan.

“Don’t ever tell Dr. Dunn about this.”

Although it was just a coincidence, hearing the tragic story of someone with the same name would still make people like Richelle feel uneasy.

[Nathan, the child in your boss’s wife’s belly is indeed your Master Lewis’ seed! Hahaha! Surprised? Excited?] >
