nTranslator: 549690339
nRoy Lewis’ mood was rarely influenced or swayed by others.
nExcept for close family members like Timmy or his uncle, who he cared deeply about.
nBut in these two days, he had been an exception time and again.
nYesterday, he felt uneasy about Richelle Dunn’s distant attitude towards her two children.
nToday, he was frustrated and irritated by Richelle Dunn’s defensive posture.
nSo much so that his usually reserved emotions were actually sensed by his son. He didn’t know whether he was being too obvious or if his son was really in tune with him.
n“Daddy, are you unhappy?”
nAs the pair bent down to change their shoes in the hallway, the son, who had always been indifferent to him, tugged at his clothes and looked up at him with concern.
n“No!”
nRoy Lewis hadn’t figured out where his discontent was coming from, so naturally, he couldn’t share these inexplicable emotions with his four-year-old son.
nThe little gentleman looked at him again, “Oh…then Daddy, go to bed early, good night!”
nThe little gentleman had been independent since he was a child. Roy Lewis did not have the habit of accompanying his son to bed and telling bedtime stories. So after saying goodnight, the little gentleman was taken back to the bedroom by Mrs. Collins to take a bath, and Roy Lewis returned to the study to deal with some matters.
nNear ten o’clock, Roy Lewis received a video call from Kennedy Green, who had been out of touch for more than a day.
nAs soon as the call was connected, Kennedy’s handsome and mature face appeared on the screen.
nRoy Lewis greeted him, “Uncle, are you done?”
nGreen looked at him carefully for a few moments, nodding satisfactorily.
n“Yeah, you look quite energetic.”
nRoy Lewis felt helpless. To his family, the Lewis Group, and the outside world, he was the fearsome Master Lewis.
nBut in the eyes of his uncle, he would always be a child.
n“Didn’t you issue a presidential order forcing me to rest at home? I dare not resist casually, or I’d be beheaded!”
nIt is said that nephews resemble their uncles, and indeed, Roy Lewis and Kennedy Green had similar facial features.
nHowever, unlike the always serious and expressionless Roy Lewis, Kennedy was quite cheerful and approachable.
nAt this time, he was smiling at Roy Lewis, “See, isn’t the effect pretty good?” Roy Lewis was speechless, but he didn’t want to discuss this issue with Kennedy at the moment. After all, he had no objections regarding his treatment.
n“Uncle, please don’t get involved in the Dunn family matters in the future.” Green’s laughter ceased, and his wise eyes filled with inquiry.
n“What’s the matter between you and Kiara? The two of you are forever Timmy’s parents. Even if you’re not together, you shouldn’t make a scene.”
nRoy Lewis used to be indifferent to Kiara, but since that day, he deeply resented her.
n“Kiara may not be fully aware and emotionally ready to be a mother. I only realized how badly I was fooled by them when I saw it with my own eyes.” Roy Lewis simply recounted the incident that happened at the cafeteria that day. After listening, Kennedy’s expression turned serious.
n“1 didn’t know about this. When Jayden Dunn called, he only mentioned that
nKiara had some misunderstandings with you and asked me to help bail her out.
nI was busy at that time, so 1 just told Benjamin to handle it.”
nRoy Lewis nodded in acknowledgment, “1 don’t blame you for this, Uncle. This incident isn’t that big of a crime, and one day of detention and the payment of some money are more than enough. 1 just wanted to teach her a lesson, but if something similar happens again, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
nGreen had always refrained from getting involved in Roy Lewis’ affairs, “If you and Kiara fall apart, what will happen to Timmy?” His primary concern was the little rascal, Timmy.
n“He has been discontent with Kiara for a long time. He always complained to me that he didn’t want to see them again. I never took his childish tantrums seriously, but thank goodness I went with him on that day, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.”
nAs Roy Lewis recalled the situation at the time, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
nGreen waved his hand, “Alright, I won’t interfere with your issues with the
nDunn family. But they’re not easy to deal with. There’s a lot of entanglement; there’s no need to be too ruthless.”
nRoy Lewis nodded in agreement.
n“By the way, your aunt told me that one of her close friends has a daughter.
nShe’s quite pretty, with a good personality…”
nAs soon as Roy Lewis heard this familiar tone, he hurriedly interrupted.
n“Uncle, isn’t my current physical condition obviously harming the other party?” This reason was Roy Lewis’ most effective shield.
nAs expected, Kennedy backed down, “Fine! Fine! Let’s wait until you’ve recovered.”
nBut in reality, even though Roy Lewis had just received a critical illness notice a few days ago, he never believed he would die so soon.
nEspecially now that Richelle Dunn was with his family, he was more at ease about his health in the future.
nHowever, these things could only be known to him. Otherwise, not only would his dear aunt continue to introduce him to potential matches, but the elders of the Federation family would also be eager to introduce their younger relatives. It was more than just annoying.
nAfter discussing private matters, Kennedy put on a serious face.
n“Any progress on the Lordon case?”
nRoy Lewis shook his head, “Not yet, but it should be soon.”
nGreen’s eyes lit up, “Do you have any leads?”
nRoy Lewis nodded, “1 just found a good helper!”
nGreen nodded, “Alright, I’ll trust you on this. If this issue isn’t resolved, it will cause widespread panic.”
nThe two discussed a few more details, and as the time approached half-past ten, Kennedy had to leave for an international conference and quickly hung up. Roy Lewis had been going to bed before midnight as Richelle had requested. At this time, he still had some free time, so he turned on his computer and logged into a certain system after facial recognition.
nThrough the top-secret account, he sent a message to the user whose display name was hidden by ***. They had contacted each other at noon.
n“How is the task progressing?”
nThe other party seemed to also be online at the time and quickly replied.
n“Hold on, 1’11 send you today’s progress.”
nAfter waiting for about five or six minutes, the other party sent over a top-secret compressed file.
nRoy Lewis used a special decryption method to unzip the file.
nThe content displayed in the documents far exceeded Roy Lewis’ expectations, and even he, who was always demanding of his work, couldn’t help but praise it.
nThough these contents were just the tip of the iceberg in the vast amounts of data they needed, even just this small amount had baffled many experts. Apparently, this helper was really good.
n“Very good! With this progress, you should be able to complete the task within a month.”
nRoy Lewis had been racking his brains for this case, and now that he saw a glimmer of light, his mood was quite good. Uncharacteristically, he praised the other person.
nHowever, it seemed that the other party was not interested in his praise.
n“Thank you. Progress and content are based on the amount you paid.”
nThe implication was that if he wanted things to go faster, he could pay more.
nRoy Lewis never liked being blackmailed, so when he saw the other party’s response, he was slightly displeased.
nBut for some reason, an image of Richelle Dunn suddenly popped into his mind.
nCould it be that the person carrying out the task, just like Richelle Dunn, was burdened with a huge family and desperately in need of money?
nUnder some inexplicable influence, he typed a few words.
n“Are you short on money?”
n“If 1 wasn’t short on money, who would do this life-threatening job?”
nThis person’s blunt nature was also strikingly similar to Richelle Dunn’s….
