The elder who made the suggestion gave a “huh?” sound, “New Lady of the House? Isn’t she a doctor?”
In the past, Richelle Dunn’s identity was kept secret, whether it was her role as an expert in a special organization, her identity as Margareth’s classmate or as Miss Dunn of the Dunns.
But now, she had laid out all the grudges with the Dunns, so it was public knowledge that she was Miss Dunn.
“She is a doctor, but before becoming a doctor, she was an architect.”
The elder and other managers felt that Lewis is being a bit hasty.
“Master Lewis, this is not just a casual residential design, as you know. It has to complement the former masters’ mansions, but also have its own style and innovation. This is not something an ordinary designer can do.”
Roy Lewis didn’t need to explain his decision to anyone; it wasn’t up for debate.
However, since facts could speak for themselves, he saw no need to force the issue.
Anyway, Richelie’s skills were more than enough to design the mansion.
Moreover, he dared to be sure that without him, Roy Lewis, it would be nearly impossible to invite The Great Designer out of retirement.
“She is not an ordinary designer. A person who can design the Lewis Technology Building, do you think she is an ordinary designer?”
Elders and managers were shocked, “Master Lewis, are you saying that the new Lady of the House designed that building, which is considered a new landmark of Kindur and the Lewis Technology building?”
“Yes, if I remember correctly, that building won a Federation award back then!”
Roy Lewis nodded, “That’s right. She is Zachary Dunn’s daughter from the Dunn family in Lordon, and she was only 18 when she designed the technology building.”
There were looks of disbelief, admiration, and delight on the elders’ and managers’ faces, with various expressions appearing.
“Actually, I took care of this matter myself first. When I go back, I have to slowly grind her down. You know that she is now Dr. Dunn who specializes in saving lives and has no interest in architectural design.”
Roy Lewis’s ups and downs made the elder who questioned him quite embarrassed.
But it was one of his cousins, about 27 or 28 years old, who took over the conversation.
“It’s obvious that the new Lady of the House loves the young master and the young ladies very much, and she is also very considerate of Master Lewis. As long as she knows the importance of the mansion to Master and the young masters and young ladies, she will definitely take up this heavy responsibility.”
The elder gladly took the chance to save face and quickly chimed in.
“That’s right. The new Lady of the House looks like a very responsible, far-sighted person. I believe that even if Master Lewis doesn’t ask her, she will take the initiative to shoulder this responsibility.”
A hint of a smile appeared on Roy Lewis’s face, making the elders and young managers feel surprised.
You should know that Roy Lewis, who took over power at a young age, is not impulsive but has a steady, deep character, with his emotions not showing on his face.
Whenever they sat down to discuss important matters like this, he would usually sit with a straight face and listen quietly.
The elders and clansmen had never been able to figure out his thoughts.
Now, seeing him show his delight so clearly was simply unheard of.
So, the elders, who were used to discerning other’s emotions, understood one thing.
From now on, to please the head of the family, they would just need to praise the new Lady of the House in front of him.
“Alright, whoever is in charge of this, send me the main requirements and overall area when the time comes. I’ll go back and ask her myself.”
Cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the elder who questioned earlier.
Master Lewis said he was going to ask her, does this mean that in Master Lewis’s little family, the new Lady of the House is actually in charge?
However, upon further thought, it seemed reasonable.
All three of the young masters and young ladies in his family were members of the gifted youth program, and dealing with just one of them was enough to give ordinary people a headache.
With three, the new Lady of the House must be a super-talent who can outwit them all on a daily basis.
Moreover, their Master is no ordinary person; the person he is so devoted to must be amazing as well.
“Oh, by the way, her fees aren’t cheap!”
This was also a rule passed down within the clan.
The cost of building each master’s mansion is borne by the clan.
So when the elder and the managers heard the master specifically mention this, they were all stunned.
Isn’t she one of us? Can’t she give us a discount?
They thought a simple discount for family relations would suffice.
But Roy Lewis knew better than anyone that Richelle was short on cash and was unwilling to take money from her children’s dividends. Therefore, she didn’t have much spare cash at hand.
However, Roy Lewis’s cousin quickly caught on and nodded with a smile.
“Of course, even as the new Lady of the House, she will have to spend a lot of time and energy on this project, so naturally, we have to follow the standard she sets.”
In this way, Roy Lewis secured a big money-making opportunity for Richelle Dunn.
When Richelle heard that she could name her price for designing the mansion, she froze for a moment.
“Huh? Isn’t it your mansion? And you still need to charge for it?”
Roy Lewis, seeing her so foolish and clumsy, couldn’t help but reach out and pinch her cheeks.
“You fool, it’s the clan’s money, not earning it would be a waste! If you didn’t design it, they would have to pay someone else.. So just ask for your standard rate, no need to give me any face!”
