Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu's Passionate Pursuit - Chapter 626
Chapter 626: Chapter 622: Finally Enlightened, Time to Propose Marriage?
Because of Megan Linwood, Richelle Dunn suffered from insomnia that night.
It wasn’t that she sympathized with Megan Linwood, for people like her, suffering and dying ten thousand times would still not be enough.
It was just that the person Megan Linwood evoked the painful memories of the past.
If Richelle couldn’t sleep, Roy Lewis naturally couldn’t fall asleep either.
All night long, he hugged her and spoke of many interesting, odd, and strange things to make her feel better.
However, no matter how much he tried to comfort her, Richelle kept tossing and turning, unable to feel sleepy.
Eventually, Roy had no choice but to pour some wine and coax her into drinking it.
Richelle had a good tolerance for alcohol. She drank one glass after another, and only after several glasses did she begin to feel tipsy.
A slightly drunk Richelle seemed even more charming and clingy.
Initially, Roy was supposed to abstain from certain activities before his surgery.
However, when his beloved woman started to caress him, he found it impossible to resist.
Thus, the next morning, Richelle was unwilling to get out of bed.
Roy hadn’t slept well last night either, dozing off only shortly before dawn. When he woke up, it was already past seven o’clock.
When he went downstairs, the first floor was empty.
Upon asking Uncle Axel, Roy found out.
Nathan Caroule had asked to borrow the two young masters, Timothy and Tiffany, for some work again, so they had already finished their breakfast and left early in the morning.
As for Tiffany, because of her upcoming competition, she had become more diligent in her practice. After finishing breakfast, she went straight to the music room to play the piano.
After Roy finished his breakfast and while Richelle was still asleep, he initiated a video conference with Kennedy Green.
“Roy, there’s no rush on this matter. For now, don’t worry about the progress in Leutonia, nor about Mason Lilliput’s situation. Your health is the most important thing!”
Kennedy only realized that he had been too focused on Mason Lilliput and the Thompsons lately when Richelle had rebuked him the other day. This made Roy more determined to resolve the issue before having the surgery.
After speaking with Richelle, Kennedy called Sonia Seaton to inquire about Roy’s condition.
Indeed, as Richelle had said, now was the best time for surgery.
If they delayed any further, even with Richelle and Sonia Seaton working together, the operation would become much more dangerous.
“Uncle, I know, it’s just that I’ve been in charge of the whole operation and no one knows the full picture better than me. It just feels irresponsible for me to suddenly go for surgery now.”
Roy didn’t actually refuse the surgery. After all, he now had a wife and children, a happy and fulfilling life, and he wanted it to continue as it was.
However, he was genuinely feeling guilty.
“Are you crazy? Richelle said that it would only take up to twenty days for you to recover from the surgery. Even if they could fly in those twenty days, they wouldn’t be able to come up with anything new. Don’t worry, you’ll still have the chance to accomplish great things!”
The two quickly reverted to discussing work, and before long, they had been talking for over an hour.
When Richelle woke up, it was already past nine o’clock. She went downstairs, had breakfast, listened to Tiffany play the piano in the music room for a while, and then went to the study to find Roy.
Roy was sorting out some documents when he saw her enter the room. He pulled her hand and walked her over to the safe.
“You never registered your fingerprint before. Will you finally do it now?”
All of Roy’s assets were probably stored in this safe.
This time, Richelle didn’t say anything, obediently pressing her finger down when he set it up.
“I declare that just because I’ve registered my fingerprint, it doesn’t mean I’ll take over all these troubles for you. Let me tell you, I still want to freely travel the world and enjoy the beauty of it. Don’t even think about using Lewis Group and the Lewis family to tie me down.”
Roy hugged her waist with one hand while resting his chin on her shoulder. He softly asked her.
“I know that neither the Lewis Group nor the Lewis family can bind you. But what about me? Can I bind you?”
As he asked, he kissed her face.
Richelle had known her answer for a long time, but she intentionally hesitated before counter-asking.
“What do you think?”
Roy chuckled, “Dr. Dunn, why are you like this? I’m the one asking the question. If you don’t want to answer, that’s fine, but don’t counter-ask me.”
Richelle smiled as well, “I thought you already had the answer in your heart.”
Roy clicked his tongue, opened his mouth, and gently bit her earlobe.
“Baby, when did you learn to be so naughty?”
As Richelle relaxed into his embrace, she said, “When did I learn? Ask yourself, you’re the one who taught me!”
The couple took much longer than necessary to register a fingerprint, spending over ten minutes being playful with each other.
It was hard to tell whether they were actually concerned about registering the fingerprint or simply enjoying their time together.
In the evening, when Nathan brought the two young masters back to the Lewis house, Roy invited him to stay for dinner.
After dinner, Roy said to Richelle.
“Richelle, I need to discuss something with Nathan later. If you need to work overtime, go back to the bedroom.”
When the two men entered the study, Nathan thought Roy wanted to talk to him about Leutonia or Mason Lilliput.
However, Roy handed him a piece of paper instead.
With a surprised and delighted face, Nathan looked down at the paper.
“Roy, have you finally come to your senses and are preparing to propose to Dr.. Dunn?”
