Chapter 359 - 359: 355: Has She Ever Confessed Her Feelings to You?
Roy Lewis explained earnestly, but after Richelle Dunn listened, she just let out an “Oh…” and then, covering her mouth, yawned deeply.
“Baby, were you really mad when you went on that mission?”
Richelle was already sleepy to the point of exhaustion. She nodded randomly and closed her eyes, mumbling a response.
“I’m so sleepy… Roy, whatever it is, let’s talk tomorrow…”
Having said that, she buried her head in his chest, snuggled a few more times, and soon fell asleep, snoring softly.
Roy looked down at her, the urgent explanations he wanted to give were swallowed back into his stomach.
He lowered his head and kissed her eyebrows, the tip of her nose, and her lips, then whispered gently.
“Baby, good night!”
Richelle had a deep and pleasant sleep that night, and when she woke up early in the morning, she felt fully refreshed.
Richelle looked at the bed and then around her. If not for the unfamiliar surroundings, she would’ve thought that everything from last night had been a dream.
Richelle got up, finished washing up, and pushed open the bedroom door to see Roy sitting on the couch working on his laptop.
Hearing the sound, Roy looked up and gave her a smile.
“Baby, you’re awake?”
As he spoke, he closed the laptop, walked over, and scooped her up in his arms.
Richelle reflexively circled her arms around his neck, glancing at the laptop on the couch.
“Is there internet here?”
If there was, she wanted to hurry and call home. She missed her kids terribly after not seeing them for a few days!
However, Roy shook his head. “No, I was just revising some plans.”
Richelle was a little disappointed, but before she could say anything, she found herself being carried back to the bedroom by Roy.
“Hey, I just got up, what are you bringing me back for?”
Roy lowered his head and bit her lips, his eyes full of burning affection.
“What do you think?”
Richelle then realized what was wrong, “No, Roy, I have lots of surgeries to do today…”
Roy put her down on the bed, his hands bracing her sides.
“I asked the driver to inquire, and Master Seaton said there aren’t many casualties today, so you have the day off.”
Richelle glared at him, hands on his chest, trying to push him away and muttered.
“Roy, when did you become so disrespectful? You should have asked me before taking time off.”
Of course, these complaints had no real resentment, only a slight protest.
It didn’t matter.
Roy lowered his head, covered her lips, and whispered an apology.
“Baby, I was wrong about this, but the situation is unique, so will you let it slide just this once?”
It is said that men who show weakness are more likely to win a woman’s heart.
And sure enough, Richelle was easily deceived by his plea for mercy.
After a passionate kiss, Richelle’s brain was clearly deprived of oxygen, but suddenly, a slightly blurry image flashed through her mind.
She frowned and thought carefully, confirming that the images were not dreams.
“Roy, didn’t you have something important to tell me last night?”
Roy, who had been ready for action, felt like he had been doused with a bucket of cold water at her question.
However, he still harbored hopes.
“Baby, didn’t I explain everything last night?”
As he spoke, he lowered his head again.
But Richelle used her hand to support his face, pushed him away, then decisively crawled out from under his arm and sat cross-legged.
“I was too sleepy last night, Roy, explain it to me again now.”
Though there was still a faint blush on Richelle’s face and a hazy mist in her eyes, her expression and tone were very serious.
Roy sighed quietly, knowing that his beautiful dream was most likely over.
He sat up, propping up his body, took out his phone, and opened the album to the photos Old Brown had sent him.
“Baby, before you left, did you receive an email from a girl named Sherrina Kingston, with these photos attached?”
Richelle nodded solemnly, finally regaining her usual intelligence and reason during the day.
“You said that Sherrina is Old Brown’s sister?”
Roy nodded, “Yes, she has the same surname as Uncle Kingston. She and Old Brown are both friends who grew up with me, but I swear, I have never had any feelings or actions towards her beyond friendship.”
Richelle thoughtfully nodded, “Has she ever confessed her feelings to you?”
Roy shook his head, “No! Before she came back this time, not only I, but even Old Brown and Nathan had never noticed that she had feelings for me beyond friendship.”
Richelle frowned, “Didn’t you say that the sleeping photo was taken on Old Brown’s birthday? Old Brown didn’t know?”
Roy shook his head again, “He didn’t know. Those photos were probably taken by one of Sherrina’s friends when Old Brown and Nathan weren’t around. I had no memory of it after taking the medicine.”
Richelle looked at him with a half-smile, “So shouldn’t you be grateful that she showed some restraint back then?”
