Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu's Passionate Pursuit

Chapter 280: Chapter 276: Baby, want to sleep on the bed?

Translator: 549690339 |

Richelie waited for Roy Lewis to fall asleep, then contacted Denise Munni on WhatsApp.

“Denise, how’s your progress these past few days?

She didn’t know what Roy had planned, but she had initially intended to attend the next Dunn Group board meeting next month.

United Ventures would act as her ally, taking her side. The expressions on the faces of the Dunn father and son duo would undoubtedly be worth seeing.

“As you predicted, things are not going smoothly. Theo is harder to deal with than his father. What about your side, do you have any new information about him?”

Richelie regretted not paying more attention to Theo in the past, as she now struggled to find a way to exploit his weaknesses.

Some useful information was provided by their previous sponsor, but Theo was very cunning. He probably sensed something and recently hasn’t used his overseas connections much. Instead, he seemed to be frequently in touch with Nathan Caroule from the Federation and Mason Lilliput privately.

As for the Thompson family, they were already problematic, and even now,

Richelie still couldn’t see through the Lilliputs.

“I have nothing new for now. On your side, pay more attention to the traditional sectors of the Dunn Group. I think there’s a good chance Theo will

make a move there.”

As they were chatting, Denise suddenly said, “By the way, Mr. Lewis’s assistant contacted me today, asking if I have time and wanting to meet with me.”

Richelle immediately knew that it was at Roy’s behest, “Denise, I must apologize to you for something.”

Richelle had never mentioned her involvement with Roy to Denise before.

However, she never intended to keep it a secret forever and now was the perfect time to come clean.

So, she briefly explained her relationship with Roy Lewis in just a few hundred words.

Denise was silent for a while after receiving the message.

Richelle thought Denise might be angry. But when Denise finally replied, it was actually a transfer of 1314 dollars.

Richelle laughed, “Why are you transferring money to me?”

Denise sent a smiley hugging leg emoji and said, “Of course, I’m taking the opportunity to cling to you before you become a phoenix flying high up, future

Mrs. Lewis!”

After talking openly with Denise, she didn’t blame Richelle because the situation involved too many people, and it’s understandable for Richelle to keep it secret until the truth came out.

“As for Nathan’s side, just deal with it for now, and I’ll get back to you later on how to proceed.”

There had been too many unexpected things happening recently, and Richelle felt overwhelmed.

She had initially planned to mention Denise’s situation with United Ventures to Roy after they had that important conversation the other night.

Since Nathan Caroule has approached Denise, now would be the perfect time for Richelle to discuss this matter with Roy.

In the past, when she was left with no choice, she had to fight alone.

But now, since she can rely on Roy, she wouldn’t be pretentious enough to refuse his help.

After all, from Roy’s point of view, his family has also been played by Jayden Dunn and his family over the years. Whether it’s for Richelle or himself and the kids, he can’t possibly let the Dunns off the hook.

After figuring out how to explain everything to Roy in her mind, Richelle felt sleepy, so she turned off her laptop, lay down on the sofa, and closed her eyes to take a nap.

When Roy woke up, his back pain had eased by more than half, and he felt much more energetic.

He propped himself up to sit and saw Richelle lying on the sofa, her head tilted to one side, seemingly in deep sleep.

He got out of bed lightly, washed up first, then walked back and bent down, one hand supporting the armrest, the other gently adjusting her head.

However, the moment he touched her, Richelle slightly opened her eyes, looked at him in a daze, and then frowned, raising her hand to press against his face, mumbling discontentedly.

“Stop it, let me sleep a little longer.”

Roy rarely saw her looking so confused and adorable and couldn’t help but lean in to gently kiss her eyelid, saying tenderly.

“Baby, want to sleep in the bed?”

With that, he slid one hand under her knees and the other around her waist, and with a little effort, picked her up.

Richelle mumbled something and burrowed her head into his chest twice before staying still.

Roy Lewis initially wanted to carry her to her bedroom to sleep, but when he thought about it, even though they had established a relationship, it still wasn’t quite right to enter her bedroom without her permission.

“Richelle, can you sleep here?”

Richelle Dunn, half-asleep, opened her eyes slightly to look at his bed and vaguely agreed.

“Oh…”

Roy then carried her to the bed and covered her with a blanket.

He sat by the bed, watching her sleep for quite a while, until he heard the children’s chirps outside. He got up, worried that the children would disturb Richelle, hurriedly went out to the second-floor living room, and made a shushing gesture at the playing children.

The three children were very smart and immediately stopped talking. After a little while, Timmy asked him, “Is mommy asleep?

Roy nodded and whispered back, “Yes, Mommy is very tired, let her rest for a bit.”

His waist was still not in great shape, so he reached out to hold Tiffany and Timothy’s hands, and asked in an inquiring tone.

“Shall we go downstairs and play?”

Timmy was the most aware of how busy his dad was, so he patted his dad’s arm sensibly and said.

“Daddy, you go back to work. I’ll take my brother and sister to play!”

Roy did have a lot to do, but he was not quite confident about the kids playing on their own.

As if seeing his concerns, Timothy helped his brother and said.

“Daddy, Mommy has an alarm system installed at home, and the bad people can’t get in. We won’t open the door to strangers either, so you can go to work and not worry about us.”

Roy, reminded by his two sons, remembered that Richelle had once said that Timothy had been a responsible little man since he was a child and was very reliable.

He squatted down, spread his long arms to hug the three children in his arms, and kissed each of them on their soft cheeks.

“You guys have fun, Daddy is going to work for a bit.”

The three children kissed him back, then held hands and went downstairs to play-

Roy returned to the guest room, sat by the bed, and stared at the sleeping Richelle as if in a trance.

On a closer look, Timmy actually resembled her a bit.

He had sensed a similar feeling before, but at that time, he thought it was just an unresolved bond between them.

Who would have thought that they were actually mother and son!?

He gazed mesmerized at her beautiful, delicate features, wanting to touch her seemingly soft, tender face, but afraid that his touch would disturb her sweet dreams.

So, he had to restrain himself from touching her hand, greedily sweeping his eyes over every inch of her skin and appearance.

The decision to replace Sonia Seaton as a hostage was made without her knowledge, communicated and agreed upon with Mr. Mitchell and others in the WhatsApp group chat.

The reason he kept her in the dark was that he knew she had come to regard Sonia Seaton as her own mother.

And to her, ultimately, he was still an outsider.

She would never shift the responsibility of saving her own mother onto him.

She would only go out herself to replace Sonia Seaton.

But, as the man who loves her and as the father of her three children, how could he let her take such risks?

A few days ago, when she tried hard to get close to him, he forcefully repelled her once.

This time, he still chose to push her away.

Push her away to a place far from danger.

Push her away to a safe place where he could protect her..
