Chapter 549: 545: Richelle Dunn is no ordinary person
At that moment, Mason Lilliput, who had just contacted the boatman to prepare for his next trip to the mountains, also received the news right away.
When he got the news, he couldn’t help but laugh.
“Theodore, look, I told you, didn’t I? This old fool from the Lewis family has finally run out of options. He’s got nowhere to go and has even dared to use a five-year-old child to shield himself.”
Theodore was still somewhat skeptical.
“Uncle, so does this mean Roy Lewis is really dead?”
Mason laughed.
“Isn’t it obvious? If Roy weren’t dead, with his character, how could he bear to push his precious sons into harm’s way?”
Theodore couldn’t figure it out.
“Then is Mr. Lewis really willing to let it happen?”
Mason glared at him, “You fool, does the Lewis family only have these few grandsons? At this age, Mr. Lewis has become afraid of death. In the past, he was a tough and iron-blooded man. I never thought that he would change as he grew old.”
This time, Theodore believed it.
“Uncle, should we still go into the mountains?”
Mason slapped him on the back of his head.
“Of course we’re going! What does his new heir have to do with us? We just mind our own business!”
Theodore nodded.
“Alright, I’ll make arrangements now.”
Mason urged him, “Hurry up, the longer this drags on, the more variables there will be. We might as well take advantage of the chaos in the Lewis family and sort everything out quickly, otherwise, they will cause more trouble for us once they catch their breath.”
Theodore let out a sound of acknowledgement.
“Uncle, didn’t you say that the old man has run out of tricks and reached a dead end? How can they catch their breath?”
This time, Mason simply kicked him.
“You fool, haven’t you forgotten? The mother of those three kids is Richelle Dunn!”
Theodore yelped in pain.
“I didn’t forget! She’s just a doctor and an architect, after all.”
Mason didn’t even know what to say anymore.
“Do you think someone capable of driving the clever Jayden Dunn and his son to seek my protection could be weak? And don’t forget, she managed to escape in the end despite the perfect arrangements made during the kidnapping.”
As Theodore listened, he finally understood.
“So, Mr. Lewis seems to be supporting his young great-grandson, but in reality, he’s giving Richelle a reassurance so that she’ll sacrifice herself for the Lewis family and take the bullets?”
Mason nodded approvingly, “Well, this is a bit closer to the truth.”
However, Theodore still didn’t fully understand, “But didn’t you say Richelle is not ordinary? Roy is dead, so how could she possibly continue to work for the Lewis family? I heard that Roy had already transferred all shares related to the three children to her!”
Mason couldn’t even sigh anymore.
“Do you think Mr. Lewis is easy to deal with? This banquet seems to be held to legitimize two other children of Richelle, but it also means that the old man has taken the three children hostage. Richelle has no choice but to obey him.”
This time, Theodore finally understood completely.
“Uncle, when you mentioned that ‘once they catch their breath’ you mean when Richelle is truly supported and rises to power?”
Mason nodded and looked somewhat regretful.
“What a pity, such a woman has to be tied down by the Lewis family and probably be a widow for the rest of her life!”
Theodore grinned and leaned closer to Mason, “Uncle, it seems like you still have feelings for Richelle! Why don’t you let me help you get her after we come back from the mountains?”
Mason realized that everything he’d said earlier might as well have been spoken to a dog.
“Forget it, we have important things to do. Don’t let this trivial matter ruin it.”
He couldn’t even manage to kidnap her the first time, and now he wanted to do it again?
Even he, Mason Lilliput, wouldn’t dare to dream about it, but this young man was quite naive!
Fearing that his reckless actions might ruin his grand plan, Mason couldn’t help but remind him once more.
“Forget about the kidnapping of Richelle Dunn. Turn a new page and never mention it again!”
After their heartfelt conversation, it was almost time for their appointment with the boatman, so they packed up their things and left the hotel.
On the other hand, Mr. Lewis’s planned banquet took place at Kindur’s club on Saturday.
In the past few months, the three talented kids of Roy Lewis had already become the talk of the town in Kindur and the Federation’s elite circles.
So, even without this banquet, everyone would still know about their illustrious status.
But there’s a difference between knowing and having it announced at such a grand banquet.
In the past, if someone accidentally bumped into the three kids, an apology and a statement like ‘I didn’t know they were the young masters and miss of the Lewis family’ might have been enough to avoid punishment.
But now, if anyone dared to touch these three children, it would mean a direct confrontation with the Lewis family.
The banquet was scheduled for noon, which was chosen to ensure that the elderly and the children wouldn’t be too exhausted..
