Chapter 807: Chapter 803: Is Master Lewis not returning to the Lewis Group?
Richelle Dunn always prepared for battle, so even if it might not be necessary during the meeting, she was still reviewing the materials before the meeting began.
The board meeting started at 3 pm, and Richelle arrived at the conference hall on time.
One of the directors, who wasn’t sure whether he was being serious or joking, asked her a question.
“Mr. Dunn, does Master Lewis plan on staying as president? Is he not coming back to Lewis Group as the CEO?”
This question was full of probing intentions.
Richelle naturally didn’t think it was a joke.
“Mr. Mitchell, if I remember correctly, I am currently the official CEO of Lewis Group. Among all the directors present, I hold the most shares. Whether Roy Lewis returns or not should be my concern alone. You, as directors, don’t need to worry about it.”
With this statement, Richelle left Mr. Mitchell speechless.
“Haha, I was just asking a casual question… ”
Richelle gave him a cold glance.
“I don’t think such a serious matter should be asked in this tone. I hope all the directors take note that if you want to joke around or chit-chat, please do so in another setting, not at the board meeting where it’s completely serious, and not with such idiotic, unfunny jokes!”
Richelle rushed back to the board meeting, not to listen to these old men trying to provoke her.
Moreover, her mood was already down due to Dylan Collins’ family being disturbed.
Mr. Mitchell, who wasn’t afraid of death, happened to touch the muzzle at this time.
Perfect, the anger that had accumulated within Richelle was all vented upon him.
After her words, the directors’ faces changed one after another.
In their impression, although Richelle had great abilities, she wasn’t considered a tough character.
So one after another, they all tried to test Richelle’s bottom line.
However, Richelle didn’t play by the rules they had expected.
From her tone, she seemed to not even have Roy Lewis in her eyes.
Perhaps it was because of this initial display of authority that during the board meeting, the directors actually behaved and asked only regular questions instead of deliberately making issues.
After the meeting, Richelle talked to Nathan Caroule with heavy feelings.
“It seems I need to be stricter with them. I shouldn’t have let them see my smiling face.”
Nathan laughed and replied.
“Actually, you’re not wrong. Theoretically, you’re their boss, and you earn their money for them. So, in all respects, you don’t need to give them a good face.”
Richelle also laughed.
“In that case, your brother Roy must have realized this long ago, which is why he has always maintained that stern, impenetrable expression.”
Nathan immediately defended Roy Lewis.
“How does Roy have a stern face like that?”
Richelle clicked her tongue, “You’re clearly seeing him with brother-filtered lens!”
The two talked and laughed. Seeing that it was almost time, Richelle packed up her belongings and left to pick up Tiffany and the other two children from school.
She didn’t know for certain when she would be back, so she hadn’t given the children an exact time.
When the children got into the car and saw her sitting there, they squealed with joy and rushed over to hug and cuddle her.
“Oh, my little darlings, Mommy missed you so much!”
Richelle felt particularly drained from this trip back to South Asia.
The reason was probably that the place she thought was an idyllic haven of a laboratory had become very tumultuous.
Returning to Lewis Group, she faced more scheming and power struggles, which made her extremely mentally exhausted.
Yet her three children were always the source of her motivation and emotional purifiers.
She buried her head in the scent of the three little ones, smelling the milky fragrance, and instantly felt much more rejuvenated.
Her three kids also missed her terribly and showered her face with kisses, leaving her face covered with drool.
The mother and her children laughed and played all the way home, where Uncle Axel had already prepared a feast with the chef.
Regrettably, Acting President Roy Lewis was still too busy and couldn’t make it home for dinner.
“Mommy, when will Daddy resign? I miss Daddy so much!”
Tiffany was the most pampered baby of Roy Lewis, and as long as he was home, she would cling to him like a koala.
Now that his time at home had been drastically reduced, the one who couldn’t get used to it the most was naturally Tiffany.
Adding that she was the youngest sister, she was spoiled by Roy Lewis, her two brothers, and Grandpa Clarkson.
However, even in a household full of strong-willed people like Richelle, none of them could resist Tiffany’s adorable charm.
“Well, why don’t you send a voice message to Daddy, asking him to come home earlier after he is done with his work.”
Richelle did not believe that Tiffany’s words would change Roy Lewis’s schedule, but she simply wanted Roy Lewis to know that they had three children at home thinking of him.
As a result, Roy, who didn’t return home until nearly midnight during this period, came back home before 9 pm today.
At this time, Richelle was still in the living room playing games with the children.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, they were initially doubtful, but then sneaked over to see Roy, before jumping for joy.
“Daddy, you’re finally back home!”
