Chapter 602: 598: Tricking her, this innocent little white rabbit!
Roy Lewis could already foresee the rapid rocket-like growth of the Lewis family’s business in the near future.
“Did you ever discuss with your master about giving her company shares in addition to the normal agency fees?”
Roy fully understood Sonia Seaton’s immense value in the pharmaceutical industry. Business-wise, they couldn’t take advantage of her just because she was Richelle’s master.
Richelle nodded, “I’ve mentioned it before, but my master said that the agency fees were enough to cover her regular research expenses. She plans to rely on these kids for her retirement, so she considers her support as an emotional investment now.”
Roy knew Sonia well enough to understand that when she said this, she was pretty much set on it.
However, he still felt that their children were getting a great deal.
“My master may have said that, but the new products she develops have always been in high demand throughout the industry.”
Richelle knew what Roy was thinking, so she said.
“Fine, I’ll make the decision on this matter. You don’t know how fast the equipment in the lab wears out, and there are also costs for upgrading equipment, materials, and so on!”
What more could Roy need to understand upon hearing this?
“Alright, you’re the expert on this, so you’ll handle it accordingly. If you need more funds, just ask.”
During breakfast, Roy handed her a card directly.
“The card is in your name, and I’ve transferred some money into it. Keep it on hand, just in case.”
Richelle happily accepted it, naively believing his words that there was only a little money inside.
However, when she linked the card to her mobile banking app and checked the balance…
Holy crap! A balance of several hundred thousand dollars is considered ‘small change’ in Roy’s eyes?
Damn rich people!
They just love to trick innocent little white rabbits like her!
However, Richelle was no stranger to big scenes now.
Although she didn’t consider several hundred thousand dollars to be ‘small change’ like Roy did.
But it really was an amount she could easily access.
Because her precious sons had secretly shown her their account balance not too long ago, which was more than just several hundred thousand dollars.
They also told her that the plan was to use the ten-plus billion as a dowry for their sister.
But since their sister was still young, they would first invest the money in TTT Group, earn more profit, and then put the initial capital back.
Richelle was both moved and amused when she heard this.
When she mentioned it to Roy, he was confused. Where did the two kids get so much money?
Of course, Richelle immediately explained that it was from Timothy’s investment profits, and the money kept growing.
However, Richelle knew that deep down, Roy was still half-suspicious.
But since Richelle herself had various sources of income, he probably assumed that some of the boys’ capital came from her.
What Richelle never realized was that in her sons’ original capital of ten-plus billion, Roy was actually the biggest fool of all.
At noon, when Richelle came home for lunch after running some errands, her two little ones surrounded her.
Both curious and gossipy.
“Mommy, how much money did Daddy give you for the errand?”
Richelle looked at her two kids, laughing.
“What, are you afraid your dad will be stingy with me?”
Timothy shook his head, “Hard to say, a lot of big shots are very stingy.”
Richelle tapped his little head, “Has your dad ever been stingy? Hasn’t he always been responsive to your needs?”
Timothy shook her hand, then mysteriously whispered to Richelle, “Mommy, you still need to be careful. There’s a difference between how a man treats his children and his wife.”
Richelle didn’t know where this little guy got these absurd theories from, so she teased him.
“Alright, you need to cut back on watching soap operas.”
Timothy’s hobbies were quite sophisticated, apart from occasionally watching soap operas to pass the time.
Timothy objected, “Mommy, I’m not lying. You can ask my brother.”
Richelle glanced at her eldest son, and Timmy nodded his head.
“My little brother is not wrong. There is indeed a difference between how a man treats his children and his wife.”
Richelle was speechless, wondering where these two rascals picked up such nonsense.
“So who did you hear this from? Did you really see your dad do something bad? Or did Uncle Caroule or Uncle Kendrick say it?”
Timmy was honest, “Daddy hasn’t done anything bad, but our uncles used to sit together playing mahjong all the time, complaining about their wives and saying money should be left for the sons. And keeping the wife happy just requires buying her some bags and jewelry.”
Richelle couldn’t help but laugh.
“Alright, you can’t lump your dad together with your uncles. Men are different from each other, just like children are different from each other.”
Timmy tugged on Timothy’s hand, “Fine, anyway, my brother and I are just reminding you that you should be more careful with men.”
Richelle burst out laughing, “So tell me, how should I be cautious?”
