And so, Timmy and Tifanny’s academic affairs and the accompanying trip were both arranged clearly.
That night, after all the children went to bed, Richelle explained to Roy Lewis the plan, which was ostensibly a vacation but actually focused on learning. Roy couldn’t help but praise her wisdom.
“Honey, I really think you’re amazing. You’ve managed to loop Timmy into this.”
Richelle snuggled into his arms, finding a comfortable position to lie down.
“Do you really think Timmy doesn’t understand my intentions?”
Roy considered it and found that to be true – after all, what could really fool their children with their quick wits?
But, with this arrangement, it seemed like Timothy was missing out a bit.
“In that case, should we arrange for Timothy to attend a Master’s class too? That way, the children’s educational trip would be even more meaningful!”
Richelle had thought of that too, but she didn’t have connections in that area. “So you have someone suitable in mind?”
Roy nodded, “Indeed, Timothy’s abilities and intelligence aren’t inferior to Timmy or Tifanny’s at all. I need to find him a great teacher too.”
There weren’t many such masters in Kindur, so Roy, despite having the idea for quite some time, hadn’t found a suitable candidate yet.
The next day, during breakfast with the children, Roy announced some news.
“Timothy, your lovely vacation will be cut short by three days!”
Timothy hadn’t quite understood his father’s words because it had always been Tifanny and Timmy attending special classes, while he typically studied with his father.
Of course, he didn’t mean to brag, but his father’s skill level was on par, if not better, than university professors.
His father was, after all, the president of the Lewis Group, with over a decade of experience managing the top conglomerate.
Others might learn rigid theories and knowledge from their professors, and even their case studies could become out-of-date quickly.
But his father was different.
The case studies in his father’s mind were vast, amounting to a comprehensive collection.
In the past, the person he had admired most was only his mother.
Now, his father had also become one of his idols.
“Daddy, why? Do I need to be Tifanny’s bodyguard?”
Timothy’s imaginative mind went wild, picturing himself as an impressive bodyguard.
Roy and Richelle were both amused by his idea.
“Honey, I know your shooting skills have almost caught up with Timmy’s, but your mom and I can still hire bodyguards.”
Timothy was puzzled, “Then why shorten my vacation? Am I supposed to work on the streets to gain life experience and earn living expenses?”
Richelle burst into laughter.
Timothy’s thoughts really were out of the ordinary.
“Alright, Daddy, stop beating around the bush. If you keep this up, Timothy might start thinking about taking on the role of the interim mayor.”
Timothy’s eyes lit up, “Mommy, will I really get to be an interim mayor?”
He had previously read a similar report about a city that allowed a child to act as a temporary mayor for a few days each year.
Roy couldn’t help but laugh.
“Sweetie, you’re overthinking it. Last night, I just happened to be discussing some matters with Professor Feynman from Hontrug University. I mentioned you, and he took an interest in you. So, I arranged a time for you two to meet. If all goes well, you can attend his class for a few days. Of course, whether you want to meet him or attend his class is up to you. We won’t force you.”
Timothy’s eyes gleamed even more brightly, “Wow, that’s Professor Feynman from Hontrug University! Daddy, does he really want to meet me? Does he really want to teach me?”
Roy nodded, “Of course, I never joke about such matters.”
Due to Professor Feynman’s involvement, Timothy was excited for an entire day.
As for Timmy, as an older brother, he thought about his siblings joining him on his journey. It wouldn’t just be for fun but also an opportunity for them to study and meet new teachers, making it a worthwhile trip.
Richelle had long seen through Timmy’s thoughts, and while Timothy and Tifanny were elsewhere, she held Timmy on her lap and stroked his head.
“Sweetheart, Mommy knows that you’re a very independent and intelligent child, but compared to Daddy and Mommy, you still lack social experience and worldly wisdom. So, when you encounter something that requires a choice, you can consult with us. We won’t interfere, but as parents and experienced adults, we can give you some advice and reminders, offering you a different perspective that might help you make better decisions.”
Perhaps due to the relatively oppressive environment in which he had grown up, Timmy’s reserved nature hadn’t changed much even after several months of living happily with his mother and siblings.
There seemed to be some truth in the saying that one’s character is determined at the age of three.
Moreover, he always thought of himself as the big brother, responsible for setting an example for his younger siblings.
Thus, when he thought about things, he tended to prioritize his siblings and parents.
He always naturally placed himself last..
