Chapter 237 - 233: The safety of Timmy, Richelie, and their children is priceless!
Richelie Dunn’s heart skipped a beat, her face changing color!
It took her a good while to realize that she and her wealthy benefactor were separated by a network as distant as the galaxies.
Besides, he had taken a substantial amount of time to reply to her inquiry. She could completely ignore his words for now, and reply when she had thought of a good answer.
But whenever she replied, she couldn’t change a frightening reality.
That was the fact that the wealthy benefactor had grown suspicious of her!
Sitting in front of her computer, Richelle felt a headache coming up from the benefactor’s counter-question.
Meanwhile, in the study room, Roy Lewis was drinking the medicinal concoction Richelle had made for him, glancing at his computer screen.
“Master, why are you still up so late?”
Uncle Axel was deeply worried.
Lately, his master had been as busy as a spinning top. He genuinely worried that he might expend the little energy he had managed to regain recently.
“Hmm, I’ll go to bed once I finish up.”
Uncle Axel wanted to persuade him otherwise, but seeing that he had put down the medicine bowl and was now focusing his attention on the computer screen, he knew it would be futile to try to make him listen. Consequently, he quietly picked up the bowl and left without saying a word.
Roy Lewis scrolled through his conversation with Margareth from beginning to end, becoming more certain that this person had a great relationship with
United Ventures.
Looking at the timeline, United Ventures’ contact with the Dunn Group did, in fact, occur after he gave Margareth access to Dunn Group’s profiles.
Throughout, Margareth had always been very clear about her intentions towards the Dunn Group.
She herself had also explicitly stated that she had a deadly feud with the
Dunns.
By putting all these pieces of information together, it’s clear that the report on the finance forum about United Ventures and the Dunn Group was intended to sow discord between the Dunns and Mason Lilliput.
Following this analysis, a smirk formed on Roy Lewis’ lips.
This Margareth was clever indeed!
Roy Lewis took out his phone and messaged Nathan Caroule.
■■investigate Denise Munni and Darren Turner from United Ventures thoroughly!”
Receiving the message, the free-spirited Nathan Caroule, currently in an unknown location, sent back a large question mark.
“Immediately, right now!”
Roy Lewis himself was a little puzzled as to why he was so persistent in uncovering Margareth’s real identity.
In their line of work, the last thing you want to do is dig deep into each other’s
identities.
Even if Margareth indeed worked for United Ventures, even if her target had been the Dunn Group from the beginning, it had nothing to do with him.
It wouldn’t cause him any real harm.
But he had an inexplicable feeling.
It seemed as though something was compelling him to investigate further.
Just then, his computer made a “ding” sound. Margareth, who he thought would play dumb and not reply, sent him a message.
“No!”
Her denial was pretty straightforward.
Their conversation ended here, as they both knew that further discussion
wouldn’t yield any results.
They had their own conclusions in their minds.
Richele turned off her computer and felt completely drained, as if she had just had a big fight.
Lying face-down on her bed, she raised her head after a brief moment of oxygen deficiency, and took a deep breath.
She picked up her phone and dialed a number.
The other party picked up the call quickly, and a slightly husky, magnetic voice came through.
“Richelle, why are you calling so late?”
The voice sounded exactly like the one she had used to impersonate Denise.
Richelle breathed a sigh of relief, “Denise, you’ll have to take over for the future dealings with the Dunn Group!”
Without any hesitation, the other party agreed, “Alright, Darren and I will take care of it.”
The next day at noon, Nathan Caroule sent a document about Denise Munni and Darren Turner to Roy Lewis’ inbox.
“Master, this Denise Munni, she doesn’t seem to have anything suspicious about her.”
Roy Lewis glanced at him, “Just by looking with eyes, everyone in the world is a good person.”
Nathan Caroule stopped talking.
Roy Lewis carefully looked through Denise’s info. From the surface, they seemed to be unconnected to Margareth.
However, after he compared the timeline of Denise’s contacts with the Dunn Group and the recent events of the Dunn Group, it seemed that starting from the moment Denise appeared, the Dunn Group, or rather, the Dunns, seemed to have fallen onto a bumpy road!
However, based on the info, Denise was from South Asia, and had only begun to manage the business in East Asia in the last half a year. During this time, she had been traveling between various cities in East Asia and didn’t have any special connections with the Dunn Group.
It seemed challenging to connect this with Margareth’s deep-seated grudges with the Dunn Group.
Nathan Caroule had been more thorough in this investigation, and there was information about United Ventures’ investment in the Dunn Group in the documents.
From the surface, it really appeared to be just an ordinary investment.
However, even though it seemed like a regular investment case, Roy Lewis always felt that something wasn’t quite right.
“Keep a close eye on Denise’s movements recently!
Although Roy Lewis had not found any loopholes for the moment, it didn’t mean that the other party would never expose any weak spots.
“Okay, also, security around Dr. Dunn’s home has been fully arranged.” Roy Lewis nodded, “Mr. Camrey has a birthday next week. You can give him the painting I won at the auction last time.
Nathan Caroule let out a surprised sound as he sought verification. “Master, you mean the ancient painting worth over US$13,670,000?”
Roy Lewis nodded.
“Well… isn’t it a bit too valuable…”
Roy Lewis glanced at him, “The safety of Timmy, Richelle, and her children is priceless!”
Nathan Caroule was speechless at once.
In fact, he thought that Mr. Camrey’s consecutive warnings were not necessarily for the safety of his young master and Dr. Dunn, perhaps he just wanted to seize this opportunity to attach himself to Master Lewis.
However, no matter what his intention was, as long as the result was good for Master Lewis, it would suffice.
Roy Lewis finished handling most of the important tasks at hand, and passed a few menial tasks over to Nathan Caroule.
Seeing this, Nathan Caroule curiously asked him a question.
“Master Lewis, considering how frequently you’re visiting Dr. Dunn’s house, when can I start calling her boss lady?”
Roy Lewis was just cleaning up his things, and glanced at Nathan at his question.
“What, have you collected enough money for the red envelopes?”
Nathan Caroule chuckled, “It doesn’t matter how much I’ve collected for the red envelopes, what’s important is that your dowry is quite generous.” Roy Lewis was touched by his words and, unusually, let out a sigh.
“Many times, I wish she was just interested in my money.”
If Richelle Dunn really was interested in his money, he guessed he would have already married her by now.
It’s just a shame, that girl…
With that hint of frustration in his mood, Roy Lewis went to Richelie’s house. The moment he walked through the door, a few kids came rushing to hug his leg.
“Daddy/Uncle, come quick, Dr. Dunn/Mommy bought fried chicken, french fries and cola!”
Surprised, Roy Lewis followed the kids into the living room where, indeed, the coffee table was laden with fast food.
“Richelle, didn’t you say…?”
The smiling Richelle reached out for the bag in his hand and interrupted him with a laugh.
“Today is a happy day, let’s call it a celebration!
