Chapter 332 - 332: 328: Sherrina Kingston is interested in him!
“Corporate rules have always been strict. Even though I am the CEO, I can’t change the rules arbitrarily. If you are really interested in secretarial work, I can arrange for you to go to another branch, where the secretarial department does indeed have provisions for competency-based promotion.”
As for the CEO’s Secretarial Department, because they deal with Lewis Group’s confidential documents, all the current employees are capable and experienced from many years of work.
In addition, the work of the CEO’s Secretarial Department is complicated and must be faultless. There are many work processes and details that, as CEO, Roy Lewis has simply not got the time to coordinate with a new subordinate.
The main reason, if Roy Lewis was not entirely certain last night, he now is one hundred percent sure.
Sherrina is interested in him!
After confirming this, Roy Lewis did not wait for Sherrina’s response, but quickly proceeded to say,
“I spoke to your brother yesterday, wait until you two are free to come to my house for a meal. Richelle and Timothy and Tiffany are looking forward to seeing you.”
Initially, Sherrina was taken aback but quickly smiled and nodded in agreement.
“Great, I’m also looking forward to it.”
Roy Lewis nodded, took out his phone, and called Nathan Caroule.
“Nathan, could you please escort Sherrina to the Marketing Department?”
After understanding her intentions, Roy Lewis tried to avoid being alone with her as much as possible. Even in the office, he didn’t want any room for misunderstandings between them.
Sherrina didn’t expect Roy Lewis to send for Nathan before she could answer. Her face inadvertently showed signs of anxiety.
“Wait…Roy, you should give me some time to think about this.”
Roy Lewis nodded, “Sure, you can first get used to the Marketing Department. If you don’t like it, or want to try a different branch, please notify Nathan anytime, he will arrange it.”
Sherrina looked a bit upset, “Roy, why are you acting this way…”
Roy Lewis didn’t see any changes on his part. He has always treated her and her brother like his siblings, providing help and support whenever possible.
But even siblings should have boundaries.
Roy Lewis knew that there were some comforting words or explanations that he should no longer say.
Some misunderstandings and misconceptions might be better left as they are.
Thinking this, Roy Lewis stood up just as Nathan came in.
“Sherrina, you’re overthinking it. If there’s nothing else, I’m going to get back to work. You go with Nathan.”
Nathan initially didn’t notice anything amiss. He just called out from the doorway.
“Sherrina, let’s go. I’ll introduce you to some people.”
Nathan has a good relationship with the Zhou siblings, so he speaks very casually.
Sherrina watched Roy Lewis’s retreating figure until he sat back at his desk. Seeing that he indeed had no intention of speaking to her further, she reluctantly said to Roy,
“Roy, I’m going with Nathan now to sign in. Are you free tonight? I would like to invite you and Nathan for a meal.”
Surprisingly, both Roy Lewis and Nathan Caroule, replied at the same time.
“I don’t have time!”
Sherrina looked embarrassed, her gaze first falling on Roy.
“Sorry, my kids at home are very mischievous, and Richelle can’t handle all three of them by herself. I need to go home and help.”
The great Mr. Lewis, going home after work to look after children. If this was made known, he would probably be laughed at.
But Roy Lewis mentioned it quite naturally, without any sense of burden.
Because, in his eyes now, nothing is more important than his family.
Sherrina smiled wryly, “So, does that mean it will be difficult to invite you for a meal in the future?”
Roy Lewis smiled at her, “Not at all, just bring along Richelle and the three children.”
His point being, he would not accept a dinner invitation from her alone.
Sherrina nodded, “I understand!”
She turned to ask Nathan with difficulty.
“And you? Don’t tell me you also have to go home to look after children?”
Nathan laughed and shook his head, “Not yet. However, if Denise agrees, I will soon be like Master Lewis, taking care of children after work!”
Incredulously staring at Nathan, who wore a delighted smile, Sherrina thought: have all men gone crazy?
Is there something enjoyable about going home to be a stay-at-home-dad?
Nathan led Sherrina out and the two stepped into the elevator. In a casual manner, Sherrina asked him.
“Roy and that doctor, they aren’t married, are they?”
Previously, Nathan and Sherrina got along well so he honestly replied.
“Marriage is no more than a formality to them. The way they are now, it’s no different from being married.”
To Nathan, Master Lewis and Dr. Dunn are already like an old married couple. Their mutual understanding, complementariness, and tolerance wouldn’t be impacted whether or not they are married.
Sherrina pursed her lips, “That’s not really the case though, is it? After all, if they’re married, they have legal protection. If not, even if they are boyfriend and girlfriend, it’s only a verbal commitment.”
Nathan, oblivious to Sherrina’s thoughts, simply assumed she was discussing the matter from a theoretical perspective, assessing the status of Roy Lewis and Richelle Dunn’s relationship as one would typically do.
“That might apply to other people. However, for Master Lewis and Dr.. Dunn, even disregarding their feelings, their three children are a far stronger bond than any marriage certificate!”
