Richelle Dunn nodded.
“Indeed, the whole process of the seminar, including the voting, was carried out openly and fairly. I believe that the public’s eyes are sharp!”
Roy Lewis, however, was slightly resentful.
“So we let him get away with it?”
Richelle hummed, “Let’s wait and see what the public opinion is like then. As I see it, there’s no way he can keep his position as director.”
Yesterday, Mr. Gregory had suspicions about Richelle, but they were not yet very obvious.
Today, originally, it was stipulated that pharmaceutical personnel should not make any comments on the drug applications under review to avoid influencing the opinions of reviewers and sway the voting results.
As a result, it was unknown what he was thinking when he chose to confront Richelle without any regard.
Everyone present with eyes and brains could see that he was deliberately targeting Richelle.
As for the reason behind the targeting, it was already unimportant. It was already a major violation for him to express his biased views and attack the participating enterprises at such an important occasion.
“Well then, I’ll step back for now and see how things progress.”
Roy Lewis didn’t care how his superiors dealt with Mr. Gregory.
As Richelle’s man, he could not allow his woman to be openly provoked in front of everyone.
Although the provocation ultimately failed, Roy Lewis could not possibly swallow his anger.
Naturally, Richelle knew Roy’s temperament and could only act accordingly in due time, trying to keep him from going too far.
“Alright, let’s not talk about this irrelevant person anymore. It’s affecting our mood!”
Richelle’s words eased Roy’s expression.
“Alright, let’s not talk about him. Let’s talk about your gains from this time.”
Richelle was a good thinker with an extremely strong ability to learn. As long as she was thrown into a new environment, she could always absorb many different essences.
The situation with Roy, which used to be all about discussing their children, had now developed into endless conversations.
In the past, Roy always felt that it was difficult to find friends who could share his interests, as there were very few people who could speak his language.
But now, not only did he and Richelle share many mutual interests, but he also benefited greatly from her words.
As Richelle went on and on about what she saw and felt at the seminar, she saw Roy staring at her intently.
“What are you thinking about? You asked me about my gains, and you’re wandering off.”
Roy Lewis pulled her closer and embraced her.
“In the past, when I heard others talk about soulmates, I scorned the idea. But now, I think you and I are truly soulmates.”
Richelle raised her head from his embrace, her beautiful eyes smiling like crescent moons.
“I’m truly honored to be Master Lewis’ soulmate.”
Roy Lewis pinched her cheek, looking at her with affectionate eyes.
“No, it’s my honor.”
The two of them were clearly talking about business, but somehow, their conversations became filled with sweet words.
As they talked, the conversation shifted back to the main topic.
“There shouldn’t be any accidents with the production permit. As for site selection, it’s not my area of expertise. That’s where you’ll have to step in.”
Roy Lewis nodded, “Sure, I’ll take care of that. We’ll need to find a good management team for them as well. Do you have any recommendations for personnel on your end?”
Richelle had also thought about this.
“For technical personnel, I can provide a list. But for management, it’s up to you.”
“Alright, we’ll each take half of the responsibility. I’m not familiar with the production facilities, but you can provide suppliers, and I’ll negotiate the prices…”
Obviously, they were on vacation to relax, but the two were having a work meeting.
But there was no choice, as both of them were efficiency-driven. Since the tasks were right in front of them, it was natural to deal with them.
Anyway, the three children were playing on the patio at the moment.
Today, the three little rascals somehow felt like playing a game of word chain.
Richelle and Roy finished talking about the new company and happened to hear their children playing the word chain game.
Richelle couldn’t help but smile, “Do children still play this these days?”
Roy also smiled in response, “Maybe they got bored? Or perhaps the simpler the game, the more interesting?”
Richelle was inclined to agree with the latter.
“As long as the three of them are together, there’s no chance of them getting bored.”
Bringing this up, Richelle couldn’t help but become curious again.
“What made you suddenly want to come play by the sea?”
Roy Lewis gave her a meaningful look.
“You should ask yourself that!”
Richelle looked puzzled, “Me? I didn’t say anything, did I?”
Roy Lewis ground his teeth, unable to resist pinching her cheek again.
“Wasn’t it you who said I’m an empty nester?”
Richelle chuckled. “It’s a misunderstanding! Those were Timothy’s words, not mine.”
Without any backbone, Richelle immediately sold out her own son.
Roy scoffed, “Anyway, it’s true that those words came from our son’s mouth.
But, wasn’t it you who suggested it?”
Richelle was wronged and looked up defiantly.
“Our children have so many ideas, how could you determine that it was me who hinted at it? I don’t accept it!”
Roy Lewis felt both annoyed and amused, “Wasn’t it you who hinted at them, afraid that I’d become bored from working too much?”
