Translator: 549690339

Of course, whether it’s Roy Lewis or Maggie Mitchell, if they were to speak to the school, Richelle Dunn would be one hundred percent certain to get her graduation certificate back.

But Maggie’s point was that since Richelle could get her graduation certificate back in a fair and square manner with her own ability, there was no need to use roundabout ways to obtain it.

Being urged by Maggie, Richelle called her mentor on the spot.

After Richelle told her mentor about her desire to apply for a replacement graduation certificate, her mentor scolded her.

“You silly girl, I thought you didn’t care about this graduation certificate.”

Richelle hurriedly explained, “Of course not, as you know, I was really passionate about this major back then, it’s just…”

The professor interrupted her, “Alright, alright, don’t I know you well? I didn’t bring it up because I thought you didn’t care. Actually, according to your grades and that big prize at the time, you’re already qualified for the graduation certificate. I’ll handle this, you take care of your mansion business and don’t worry about these trivial matters.”

Richelle was very grateful, repeatedly saying thank you.

“What are you thanking me for? By the way, that mansion you’re designing now, I’ve entered it in an international competition for you. Did Roy tell you about it?”

Richelle was surprised, “No, he went on a business trip. I guess he hasn’t had time to tell me.”

The professor hmmed, “Well, it doesn’t matter. I’ll follow up on the rest. You just wait for the good news.”

Richelle hadn’t done design drawings for several years, and she thought she had become a bit rusty.

“Teacher, I just wanted to participate and didn’t think too much.”

The professor scolded her for being “useless,” then continued.

“Anyway, it’s not up to you. Sometime when you’re free, bring the kids over to see me.”

The professor has retired, and being old, he bought a house in a warm southern city to enjoy his retirement.

The city is quite far from Kindur, and Richelle always wanted to visit, but various things got in the way, and she still hasn’t made the trip.

“Okay, thank you, teacher!”

Richelle hung up the phone, and Maggie, who had grasped the general idea from her conversation, congratulated her with a happy face.

“Congratulations on your smooth graduation.”

Richelle thanked her and asked Maggie another question.

“Did Roy ask you to persuade me?”

Maggie shook her head, “No, he just felt sorry for you but was afraid that bringing up those old stories would make you sad, so he never dared to mention it.”

Richelle smiled helplessly, “I’m not that fragile…”

Maggie nodded, “Yeah, men are always so self-righteous, always thinking women are fragile and inexperienced, but in fact, women are much stronger than men think!”

At noon, the children were still playing on the lawn, and Richelle’s phone suddenly received a video call from Roy.

She was afraid that the connection would be cut off, so she quickly answered it.

Then, she waved to the children not far away.

“Babies, come here quick, Daddy is calling.”

After shouting, she smiled and said to Roy on the screen.

“I miss you so much!”

Roy on the screen also straightforwardly replied to her.

“Baby, I miss you too!”

Maggie listened to their conversation and showed a gratified smile on her face.

Before meeting Richelle, Roy was a closed-off person, with a sharp tongue but a cold and reticent character.

At that time, she, as an aunt, was really worried and afraid that he would end up alone because of his personality.

She never thought he’d meet Richelle, who would make him so frank.

Moreover, this Richelle was a true big shot.

Even standing next to Roy, she didn’t feel inferior at all.

“How are you and the kids? Are you doing okay?”

“Are you used to it there?”

Both of them spoke at the same time, then looked at each other through the screen and laughed.

Maggie quietly got up and left, giving the young couple their precious alone time.

“Yeah, I’m fine here, but I’m not used to the food.”

Roy wasn’t a picky eater, so if even he said he wasn’t used to the food, it must be really bad.

“Poor thing, I’ll prepare more ingredients for you when you come back and comfort your stomach.”

Roy looked at her with affection, and while the children were still away and Maggie had left, he whispered.

“Baby, I really miss you!”

Richelle was instantly struck by the deep affection in his eyes, looking at him foolishly, then replied without thinking.

“Mhm, I’ll comfort you when you get back!”

The two didn’t speak anymore but just gazed at each other through the screen with deep affection.

Even though they were thousands of miles apart, both Richelle and Roy felt the other was right in front of them.

Although they couldn’t touch or embrace each other.

Yet they both felt the strong heartbeat and the overwhelming love in each other’s gaze.

“Daddy, we’re here!”

It wasn’t until the three children came into view of the camera that Richelle and Roy reluctantly broke their passionate gaze.

“Babies, have you been good?”

The three little mischiefs answered him in unison, “We’ve been super good!”

Tifanny pouted her little lips and sent her daddy a flying kiss, and Roy immediately smiled brightly..
