Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu's Passionate Pursuit

Chapter 39

Chapter 39 – Chapter 36: Did She Get Divorced?

Roy Lewis saw that she didn’t speak and thought she had other difficulties, and that million had other uses. He thought for a moment and explained further.

“What I mean is, since we have the means to provide the children with better, we should try to give them a better environment.”

Richelle Dunn became unhappy, “What’s wrong with my place? Aside from the narrow space, the necessary living facilities are all available, it’s not leaking and not drafty, it’s quite comfortable.”

Roy Lewis didn’t understand why Richelle Dunn got angry; after all, what he said was just the truth. However, he’s always been result-oriented, so he didn’t bother arguing with her too much.

“Since Timmy will need your help with his lessons, I’ll be responsible for providing the place for them to go to school. You can bring Timothy and Tifanny to live with you.”

Richelle Dunn thought that the place he offered was his home, which would be like sending a lamb into a tiger’s den, right?

“No need!” Richelle Dunn firmly refused.

Roy Lewis didn’t give up, “There’s a flat near my house that could be arranged to be a diverse learning and play space.”

Richelle Dunn glared at him with a frown, “Mr. Lewis, indeed, I’m not wealthy, but I don’t need any of your charity. I can rely on my own hands to give my children a prosperous and happy childhood!”

Roy Lewis frowned, “Richelle Dunn, I had good intentions.”

Why did she have to misunderstand him?

Richelle Dunn stared back at him with a determined look and emphasized again.

“I don’t need it, I think this place is quite good!”

Perhaps, for Timmy, the flat his dad provided was nothing more than an ordinary configuration.

But for Timothy and Tifanny, those advanced and luxurious things could only be owned for a short time, which was more painful than never having them at all.

And most importantly, if Roy Lewis provided the venue, he would have the right to access it freely, which would greatly increase the chance of Timothy and Tifanny being exposed.

She absolutely couldn’t take that risk.

Of course, Roy Lewis couldn’t see through Richelle Dunn’s complicated thoughts, and he just felt that she was being unreasonable.

Obviously, changing to a bigger space would not only make the children more comfortable but also allow for better teaching facilities to be used. Isn’t that a win-win situation?

“Let’s ask the children for their opinions.”

Roy Lewis didn’t understand Richelle Dunn, but he was sure that she was a good mother who loved her children.

So, if the children agreed, she would definitely agree as well.

However, Richelle Dunn didn’t want to involve the children in her dispute with Roy Lewis because she knew that for the kids, Roy Lewis was their father, and she was their mother. Whichever side they choose, it would be painful for them.

“No need!”

Seeing how determined she was, Roy Lewis temporarily had no other solutions and had to yield. He would wait for a suitable time to try persuading her again.

Richelle Dunn thought he had given up and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. She didn’t want to sit in the living room facing him, so she got up and went to help in the kitchen.

Richelle Dunn usually served dinner at six o’clock, and the dishes were almost ready when Roy Lewis entered. Mrs. Walker had just finished frying the two temporarily added dishes, and Richelle Dunn helped carry them into the living room.

After setting the table, she went to the children’s bedroom door and knocked.

“Babies, it’s time for dinner. Uncle Kendrick and Timmy are staying for dinner. Wash your hands and face before coming out.”

There was no problem with what Richelle Dunn said to Roy Lewis.

But the three children in the room hurriedly put their masks back on their faces.

“Big brother, you don’t have to wear it.”

Timothy reminded the young master.

But the young master said, “I’m a big brother; I’ll accompany you.”

If wearing a mask meant he could be with his younger brother and sister forever, then he was willing to wear it all the time.

The bedroom door opened, and the three children, wearing the masks they had just put back on, held hands and walked out.Roy Lewis nodded at them, but the three little brats ignored him as if they didn’t see him at all and marched towards the dining room.

Roy Lewis looked at Richelle Dunn with a confused face, and Richelle spread her hands, “Maybe, they had a fight and are sulking?”

It was obvious that the three little brats were still angry at their daddy.

Unfortunately, Roy Lewis had no idea about the children’s feelings and thought the little rascals really had a fight. It wasn’t until they sat down at the dining table together that he noticed the difference from the last time.

When he ate here last time, Timothy and Tifanny were very friendly to him, their sweet little mouths called him “uncle” over and over.

But today, it seemed like the two little ones hadn’t called him at all since they walked in the door!

Roy Lewis felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but as a grown man, he couldn’t ask the two little rascals why they didn’t call him.

He had no choice but to start with his own son.

“Timmy, did you bully Timothy and Tifanny?”

The saying goes, “when a child makes a mistake, the adult suffers.”

The little master wouldn’t take the blame and directly rolled his eyes at his dad, mumbling his reply.

“Do you think I’m as stupid as you?”

His mommy, brother, and sister didn’t like him that much to begin with, and he was incredibly stupid, failing to seize the opportunity to please his brother and sister!

Roy Lewis didn’t understand why his son suddenly threw a tantrum, but he couldn’t argue with his son in front of the others, so he turned his gaze to Timothy and Tifanny who were silently eating their food.

“Why do Timothy and Tifanny look unhappy?”

Timothy and Tifanny looked up at the same time, glanced at him, and then Timothy turned away and asked Richelle.

“Mommy, when is Uncle Kendrick coming? My sister and I miss him so much!”

Kendrick Yacoub was Richelle’s fellow martial arts brother and had pursued Richelle for several years, always treating Timothy and Tifanny well.

Tifanny immediately chimed in with a babyish voice, “Right, Tifanny really, really misses Uncle Kendrick!”

Richelle didn’t expect that the two little ones would involve someone else just to spite Roy Lewis, so she quickly put some meat on their plates to appease them.

“He’s coming on Friday. If Timothy and Tifanny are well-behaved, Uncle Kendrick will bring you gifts.”

Roy Lewis and the little master, who were both treated like outsiders, looked at Richelle’s face simultaneously.

Roy Lewis had some scrutiny in his gaze, while the little master was inquiring with an obscure expression. Then, he slammed his chopsticks down and asked Richelle coldly.

“Is Uncle Kendrick your boyfriend?”

The little master remembered very clearly that his brother had said that morning he hoped mommy would find an uncle to marry.

Is this Uncle Kendrick the handsome and powerful doctor that his brother and sister were talking about? Were they hoping that mommy would marry him?

With this question from the little master, not only was Richelle taken aback, but even Roy Lewis was somewhat astonished.

Wasn’t Richelle married? And now she has a boyfriend?

Or did she get married, but then divorced?

Richelle clearly felt her eldest son’s resentment and didn’t care about Roy Lewis’s strange scrutiny. She only anxiously clarified to her eldest son.

“Of course not, Uncle Kendrick is auntie’s martial arts brother and a very powerful doctor. Timothy and Tifanny really like him.”

Roy Lewis glanced at Timothy and Tifanny subconsciously and saw the two little rascals had admiration and joy in their eyes, nodding in agreement, “Yes, we really like Uncle Kendrick.”

Roy Lewis felt increasingly bitter in his heart.

It was true that Timothy and Tifanny weren’t his children, but when he noticed that the two little ones liked another uncle more than him, he couldn’t help but feel upset!

Could it be that he was just that unlikable to children?
