Translator: 549690339

When Roy Lewis said he was coming over for lunch, Richelle Dunn had just finished putting away a pile of groceries she bought from the supermarket and was rolling up her sleeves to start cooking.

She and Kendrick Yacoub had a close brother-sister relationship, and her relationship with Roy Lewis was still nothing special, so she didn’t think it was a problem for the two of them to come to her house for dinner at the same time.

However, seeing the two of them face each other with high spirits, she just wanted to throw in the towel and leave.

“Kendrick, your surgical skill is good, but if I remember correctly, you can’t even tell the difference between soy sauce and vinegar, so maybe you should wait outside to eat.”

Kendrick Yacoub’s courage, which had been high, was suddenly deflated by Richelle Dunn’s blow, and his spirits vanished in an instant.

Kendrick hung his head in disappointment and complained, “Richelle, that’s really discouraging. Don’t I deserve some face?”

Seeing this, Roy Lewis was secretly delighted, thinking Richelle was giving him a chance to be alone with her.

However, Richelle didn’t plan to give anyone a chance, but to deflate them one by one.

“Kendrick, hurry up and go tell Timmy about the lesson you taught your students the other day. He really enjoys listening to your lectures.”

Kendrick could never refuse Richelle’s requests.

Moreover, he knew deep down that if he stayed to compete with Roy Lewis, his chances of winning were slim.

It might be better to try a roundabout approach with the child, which might yield better results.

“Alright then, I’ll leave it to you!”

As he spoke, he tried to pat Richelle on the shoulder.

Roy, who was standing next to him, took a step forward and blocked his hand.

Roy Lewis smiled politely at Kendrick, “Dr. Yacoub, I’ll leave Timmy in your hands!”

Kendrick helplessly withdrew his hand, feeling that Roy’s smile was extremely fake and full of smugness, which angered him.

“Mr. Lewis, are you a good cook?”

He didn’t believe that a man like Roy Lewis could know anything about cooking.

Roy Lewis shook his head, “I can’t cook, I just came to be Richelle’s assistant and, by the way, discuss the children’s matters.”

Roy played his cards to the utmost, knowing that the children were his biggest bargaining chip.

It was the same for Richelle and Kendrick.

Kendrick’s eyes darkened, and he glanced at Roy silently before turning and walking out.

Richelle watched coldly and was speechless about Roy’s actions.

“Roy Lewis, how immature can you be?”

Roy didn’t bother to defend himself, instead staring intently at Richelle, inching closer step by step.

Seeing that he was about to press himself against her, Richelle had no choice but to lean back, retreating step by step until her back was against the refrigerator wall.

She furrowed her brow and glared at Roy Lewis.

“What do you want?”

Roy raised his hand, barely brushing her face, and leaned against the refrigerator with a “thud.”

The handsome face suddenly loomed over, casting a large shadow over Richelle.

Her heart thumped wildly in a nervous beat, and his scorching breath sprinkled down like sparks, setting her face and neck ablaze with redness.

“Roy Lewis!”

Richelle turned her face away to avoid his burning gaze, “What do you want?”

Roy still stared at her, pleased with her blushing and flustered appearance.

“Richelle, did you specifically find someone to make me mad?”

This shameless, arrogant man!

Richelle rolled her eyes in anger, “Roy, why would I want to make you mad? Besides, making you mad is so easy. What if I just take the three kids and keep running? Isn’t that more effective?”

She wasn’t one of those naive young girls who would only play little games.

If she really wanted to anger him, she could make sure he would never find her or his precious children for the rest of his life!

Roy Lewis was angered to the point of itching his teeth when she hit a sore spot, but he couldn’t let it out.

When he played his cards, he only thought of the children as the biggest bargaining chip.

Little did he know that for Richelle, the cards in her hand were just as powerful, and the children were her biggest bargaining chips too.

“Richelle, can you stop being like this?”

Surprisingly, Roy Lewis’s tone carried a hint of pleading.

Richelle’s heart was tugged for a moment, but soon after, she reminded herself again.

But don’t go easy on him. Men don’t have good memories; if the punishment is too light, they’ll dare to commit it again next time!

“So, can you go back to that night and not judge me based on what others say? And don’t act all righteous by giving me a blank check or arbitrarily convicting me?”

Richelle Dunn didn’t speak loudly, but her words were powerful, striking Roy Lewis’s heart like a hammer.

Kendrick Yacoub’s appearance made Roy spill all his jealousy. Blood rushed to his head, and he almost wanted to punish Richelle right on the spot.

However, just one sentence from Richelle instantly sobered him up.

“I’m sorry…” He slowly stood up straight, his hand touching her hair and gently rubbing it. His deep eyes were filled with apology. “I was an idiot!”

But just after he had reflected on himself, he couldn’t help but frown and say,

“But this Kendrick Yacoub, I can tell he has ulterior motives.”

Richelle turned her face back and glared at him.

“Master Lewis, aren’t you going to clean up your jealousy?”

Roy’s face thickened, “I’m doing this for your sake! Aren’t you annoyed by these kinds of things?”

Richelle chuckled and pushed him away with her hand against his chest, then slipped past him.

“I’m not annoyed at all. Kendrick and I have always gotten along great, and we find plenty to talk about in various aspects. There’s nothing to be annoyed about.”

Roy was gradually realizing that Richelle, although seemingly straightforward, was in fact quite cunning.

It would be better if she got angry and hit him or scolded him.

But she wouldn’t!

Instead, she would only poke his heart occasionally with a tiny needle, causing him pain and discomfort, yet not killing him.

It didn’t even count as a bleeding accident.

Now, the atmosphere between them seemed calm and even harmonious.

However, an insurmountable gulf seemed to be set up between them, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t cross it.

“Really? So, what do you two talk about?”

Despite being furious to the point of grinding his teeth, Roy still asked her with a hint of a smile.

Richelle raised her eyebrows and glanced at him, “Anyway, we talk about things you wouldn’t understand!”

It seemed like poking with a needle wasn’t enough for Richelle, so she replaced it with a small knife and used it to cut a small wound in Roy’s heart.

Roy’s fragile heart was bleeding as a result.

And then, as if not satisfied with that, Richelle added another cut.

“Kendrick and I have similar interests and plenty of common ground. We could talk for days and nights without stopping. Unlike with you, other than our child, there’s not much to talk about!”

Roy’s heart was now punctured with a big hole, and the blood flowed out like water.

“Richelle!”

Roy gritted his teeth, feeling that if he were to die one day, it wouldn’t be due to the broken tumor in his brain.

Instead, it would be under Richelle’s sharp tongue!

“Hm?” Richelle looked at him with innocent eyebrows raised.

This time, Roy finally figured out who their son Timmy inherited his infuriating talents from!

“Could you show some mercy? You’re about to give me a heart attack.”

Richelle still blinked her innocent big eyes, “No need to worry, my master can treat that!”

Roy clenched his teeth, but still remembered that before she cooled off, he could only let her poke or stab at his heart as she pleased!

He took a deep breath, and his deep eyes stared at Richelle.

“Fine, I’ll write a will tonight and list you as the first heir!”

“Oh…” Richelle glanced at him thoughtfully. “Then you must live a long and happy life!”

Roy, with gritted teeth, asked humbly.

“How so?”

He regretted his question almost instantly.

Because he knew Richelle would not have nice words to say in response.

As expected, Richelle replied with a smile.

“You have so much money.. Would you be willing to leave it for me and another man to spend?”
