Chapter 269 - 265: Next Time, I’ll Be Verv Gentle’
Roy Lewis nodded and said, “All right!”
However, he didn’t seem to have any intention of letting go of her hand.
Richelle Dunn’s mind was still on what her master had said, so she couldn’t be tough on Roy Lewis.
She sighed and asked him.
“What do you want?”
Roy Lewis quietly looked at her, his deep eyes seeming to hold a thousand words, but he didn’t say anything.
Richelle Dunn frowned and asked him with a slightly heavier tone.
“Roy Lewis, if you have something to say, just say it. Don’t learn those unnecessary coquettish tricks from Tifanny…”
She was really fed up with him—a grown man should just speak up instead of hesitating!
Finally, Roy Lewis spoke, “Can I stay after I wake up, and leave after dinner?” He had been neglected for two days and felt like there was a hole in his heart. Now that he sensed her softening, he naturally wanted to get more attention and benefits.
Richelle Dunn thought there was some big issue, but after hearing him, she couldn’t help but glare at him.
“Was it that hard to say?”
Roy Lewis answered seriously, “Because you’re still angry…”
Richelle Dunn was speechless and didn’t directly refute him. She thought for a moment and said,
“That’s fine. You stay home and watch the kids this afternoon. I have something to discuss with my master.”
Originally, Richelle Dunn planned to take all three children with her, but with Roy Lewis around, it would be much more convenient for her to leave the kids at home and go by herself.
Roy Lewis nodded, pulled her hand to his lips, and gently kissed the back of it.
After the kiss, he let her go and said,
“Tonight, we’ll go out to eat, so you don’t have to rush back to cook.”
Richelle Dunn mentioned her master with the intention of seeing if he would voluntarily bring up the investment matter.
Unfortunately, this man did not fart at all.
Did he think that her master would hide such a big matter from her?
Richelle Dunn pulled her hand back, while asking him as she applied the needles,
“Roy Lewis, don’t you have something to tell me?”
Roy Lewis responded quickly, “I do, but it might be too cheesy for you.”
Richelle Dunn rolled her eyes secretly. Had this man unlocked some kind of speaking skill?
Why did he become increasingly greasy in his speech?
However, the words that others might find greasy did not disgust Richelle Dunn when spoken by him.
At most, she would feel a little speechless.
She always felt that such words did not fit the awe-inspiring image of Master Lewis.
“Fine, shut up then!”
Roy Lewis smiled and obeyed, “Yes, ma’am!”
Seeing that he really wasn’t going to say anything, Richelle Dunn stopped asking and focused on applying the needles to him.
However, Roy Lewis only kept silent for a moment before asking again, How much did Timothy and Tifanny weigh at birth? Carrying three kids must’ve been tiring, huh?”
Richelle Dunn really wanted to stuff his mouth.
“Roy Lewis, are you trying to indirectly brag about how great you are?”
Roy Lewis coughed and smiled slightly.
“Having triplets in one shot, I guess I’m quite impressive!”
Richelle Dunn really wanted to slap him, but she didn’t want to show weakness, so she braced herself and continued.
“Yes, you’re quite impressive, nearly killed me!”
Her ears and face were burning, but she refused to admit defeat.
Roy Lewis looked at her in a great mood, his eyes full of tenderness and affection.
“Hmm, next time, I’ll be gentle!”
Richelle didn’t know if she was angry or shy, but her face was as red as peach blossoms.
“Roy Lewis, shut up!”
Roy did not dare to tease her too much, and then asked, “How much did the children weigh at birth? Is it true that the strongest one was born first, and the weaker ones were born later?”
He had always wanted to ask these questions since he found out Richelle was the one from that night and that Timothy and Tifanny were his biological children.
However, he had no chance to ask these questions yesterday or this morning.
Richelle was still mad at him, so she replied irritably.
“Didn’t Kiara Dunn tell you how painful it was to be pregnant and how heavy Timmy was at birth?”
Speaking of Kiara, Roy’s smile faded.
“I’m not sure. Every time I faced her, I couldn’t restrain my disgust, so I usually filtered out whatever she said. However, I know Timmy’s weight and height at birth because it was written on the birth certificate.”
Kiara was a thorn in both Roy’s and Richelle’s hearts.
In the past, Roy was afraid to mention Kiara in front of Richelle for fear of being misunderstood.
Now, he was still afraid to mention her, fearing it would upset Richelle.
When Richelle mentioned Kiara, there was indeed a flash of hatred in her eyes.
However, she also knew that some things needed to be laid out so as not to be misunderstood by each other.
And the thorn in her heart, if buried for too long, had to be cut out with a firm hand to get rid of it.
So whether it was painful or hateful, she would have to endure this cut sooner or later.
“Yes, I only knew Timmy’s weight and height when I asked Hugo Camrey for help. Timmy, as the eldest brother, indeed weighed the most, at 2 kg. Timothy was slightly lighter at 1.9 kg, and Tifanny was 1.8 kg. Fortunately, aside from being smaller than normal and showing some oxygen deprivation symptoms at birth, Timothy and Tifanny had excellent overall health.”
Actually, this indirectly proved that, as a father, Roy had excellent genes.
So, him bragging about being impressive wasn’t wrong.
Speaking of the children, Richelle’s eyes were filled with tenderness and love, without any resentment or complaint for the pain they caused her.
Seeing her like this, Roy felt so heartbroken that even breathing hurt.
“Richelle, have you ever hated the children at first?”
Richelle glanced at him, “Before I knew who you were, I hated you! I thought you were in cahoots with Kiara and the others. After seeing Timmy, I was unsure about your position, so I kept it a secret. In this matter, I’m sorry for keeping you in the dark for more than two months.”
After knowing the truth, Roy had long stopped blaming her for her secrecy and deception.
“Richelle, you don’t have to apologize. In this matter, I’m the one who’s messed
Strictly speaking, I was also a victim that night, but for me, the aftermath of that night became incredibly beautiful because of Timmy, Timothy, and Tifanny! But for you, it was endless torture and pain. So, I can demand accountability from anyone else, but never from you. Even if you say you want to kill me to ease your hatred, I wouldn’t resist.”
Richelle was moved and shocked by Roy’s honesty and straightforwardness, and after a moment of silence, she said.
“When I first saw you, I wouldn’t say I hated you. After all, you obviously weren’t m a normal state that night. The more I got to know you, the more I became convinced that you were a victim that night too.”
“But I had no evidence to prove that I wasn’t the one who hurt you, so that’s why I kept hiding it.”
“As for whether I ever hated the children, to be honest, from the moment I began to feel them growing in my belly little by little, I stopped hating.” “I love them because they are a part of me. At that time, I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to protect them, so during my pregnancy, I exercised every day in that little room. I also tried to eat as much of the food and supplements they brought in. It was because of this that my master had the chance to save me and Timothy and Tifanny..”
