A smile appeared on Roy Lewis’s face.

“Well, your idea is not bad. Grandpa has always wanted to hold a grand and dignified banquet for Timothy and Tifanny, but I was the one holding it back. Now, it’s settled, he’ll be very happy.”

Richelle Dunn still looked a bit worried.

“But will this affect the situation in Lewis’ Village? They seem to be planning something big right now. Will our high-profile approach scare them off?”

Roy Lewis shook his head with a smile.

“No, just as you said, they’ll think we’re hastily appointing a new leader out of desperation. The various forces in the village will assume that the old man has no other choice but to push three five-year-old children into the public eye to establish authority. Even if they’ve heard about the children in the Lewis Group, they’ll probably not take them seriously. Most likely, they think the children are barely able to gain a foothold thanks to the old man’s support and the face given by the people of Lewis Group.”

Richelie’s heart was finally at ease.

“Okay, then that’s what we’ll do. I’ll remind the children in advance to be smart and alert when the time comes.”

Roy Lewis understood immediately what Richelle meant by reacting wisely.

“Yes, they need to stay under the radar. If they’re too conspicuous, the enemy will become suspicious.”

After he finished speaking, he turned to Richelle again.

“By the way, I’ll come up with the guest list for the banquet myself, and when you have time, I’ll tell you where they come from.”

Richelle had been back in Kindur for over a year and been with Roy Lewis for almost a year as well.

In the past, Roy had always wanted her to do things that she enjoyed.

She didn’t like mingling with hypocritical rich women and young ladies, so he never brought her to such events.

She didn’t want to get involved in Lewis Group, so he always allowed her to remain detached, letting her focus on taking care of the young masters and young lady, while he took care of the financial matters.

But now that things have come to this point.

She had no choice but to step forward in his place.

Honestly, he believed in her abilities.

And he believed that she could do an excellent job.

However, he was still hesitant at first.

Between the big political picture and his personal family life, he weighed the options for a long time.

In the end, he had no choice but to push her into the limelight.

Roy Lewis didn’t know what Richelle thought deep down.

All she really wanted was to bring Jayden Dunn’s family to justice, and then lead the children in a carefree and free-spirited life of her choosing.

But reality often plays tricks on people.

Somehow, step by step, it dragged her into an even larger whirlpool.

Of course, he selfishly considered pushing her away.

But now that she and the children were already on board the same boat as him, it was too late for them to try and escape.

And she seemed to realize this as well.

Determined, she led the children to the forefront, drawing everyone’s attention and the barrels of all the guns on herself and the children, simply to cover up the terrible chess game that he and his uncle were playing.

“Richelle, thank you!”

As Richelle was about to walk out the door of the study, Roy Lewis spoke sincerely.

Richelle turned her head and looked at him affectionately.

Then, she revealed an utterly confident smile.

“Don’t worry, the children and I can handle it!”

Apparently, Richelle understood the unspoken words behind Roy Lewis’s gratitude.

After she spoke, she took a few steps, turned her head again towards Roy Lewis, who was still affectionately gazing at her back.

“Actually, the children and I really enjoy playing. As it turns out, life can’t be boring!”

She finished with a smile and left without looking back.

Roy Lewis, whose heart was still full of guilt and anxiety, now suddenly felt enlightened.

Yes, she had once said.

If life had to give her suffering and pain,

Since she couldn’t run away, she would treat it as a thrilling experiential game.

She would enjoy it and conquer it!

The next morning, Mr. Bailes, the old man, hurried over.

Roy Lewis mentioned Richelle’s proposal to him, and after hearing it, the old man fell silent.

After a long while, he finally patted Roy Lewis on the shoulder.

“Roy, if you dare to treat Richelle and the children badly in the future, I’ll be the first one to not let you off easily!”

Roy Lewis smiled.

“Grandpa, remember when I secretly went on a business trip and borrowed your personal lawyer?”

The old man nodded his head.

“Yes, I asked Mr. Bailes later, but he refused to tell me what you needed him for.”

Roy Lewis took a file bag from the drawer and handed it to the old man.

“Grandpa, you can announce this at the banquet.”

After taking a look, the old man’s face grew even more solemn.

“Roy, are you serious about this?”

Roy Lewis nodded his head.

“Grandpa, at this critical juncture, if Richelle can still find the courage to stand at the forefront, with all the guns aimed at her, and I’m still withholding and hiding my true intentions, can I still call myself a man?”

After the old man confirmed his intentions, he sighed deeply.

“Okay, if Richelle is willing to step up to the plate, we’ll add fuel to the fire for her!”

Roy Lewis replied, “Okay!”

The old man continued, “In my opinion, Richelle is happiest when she’s saving lives with her surgical skills or drawing architectural designs with her pen. So, you better hurry up and wrap things up on your end so she can return to her profession.”

“The men in our Lewis family have no reason to let the women we love take the bullets for us!”
