Indeed, they were trying to hide something, but what exactly they were hiding, she might never tell him.
“Well, both of them had birthmarks on their faces since birth, as you know, kids care about their looks, so…”
Richelie Dunn stopped talking and lowered her eyes. In Roy Lewis’ view, she just looked sad and heartbroken.
Seeing her like this made him feel uncomfortable and somewhat guilty, “I’m sorry…”
Richelle lifted her eyes and gave him a forced smile.
“It’s nothing…”
Secretly sizing up Roy Lewis again, Richelle finally decided to take a risk and probe.
“Mr. Lewis, 1 want to ask, if, I mean if, Timmy’s mother didn’t send him back to you back then, what would you do when you found out?”
A ruthless look appeared in Roy’s eyes. If a woman like Kiara Dunn were to mistreat his precious son, he would feel an ominous chill around him, and his tone became noticeably colder.
“I would… kill her!”
Richelie’s testing did not alarm Roy.
He simply assumed that his son had shared his grievances with Richelle, and Richelle, who had always cared for him, just happened to ask that question.
Richelle shuddered at his reply, feeling frightened, but even more convinced that she needed to protect Timothy and Tifanny even better in the future, not letting Roy find out any part of the truth.
In the evening, after sending Roy and her elder son away, Richelle put her twins to bed as usual, then returned to her bedroom to continue with her mission.
After ten o’clock, she received a call from Hugo Camrey.
“Richelle, it seems there’s been some trouble with the Dunn Group lately, do you know?”
Richelle already knew most of it from the information she got a few days ago, but what Hugo was talking about might be something that happened over the past few days.
“What kind of trouble? Is it related to the Lewis Group?”
“Not entirely. There’s reliable information that he’s been getting very close to the Thompsons lately.”
Richelle immediately thought of the Thompson family that caused a scene at the hospital the other day, “Is it the Thompsons from Kindur?”
“Yes, don’t underestimate them. They have quite a power in the underworld. If the Lewis family are the most legitimate first family in Kindur and even the Federation, then in the underworld, the Thompsons are equivalent to the Lewis Group’s position in the Federation.”
This was the first time Richelle had heard of this.
For one thing, she didn’t have much of a network in Kindur.
On the other hand, given the Thompsons’ tactics that day, it didn’t seem very clever, and she thought that they had just hired some low-level thugs to cause trouble.
Looking at it now, could Jayden Dunn also be involved in the incidents?
“So, you suspect that the Dunns encountered some trouble that led them to collude with the Thompsons?”
As far as she knew, the Dunns didn’t have any dealings with the underworld several years ago.
Moreover, the Dunn Group had always maintained a good relationship with various departments of the Federation, and they had a very positive image in the public eye.
The only possibility that would make Jayden Dunn ruin his reputation by colluding with the Thompsons would be if the Dunn Group or the Dunn family was in big trouble.
This big trouble could be related to the information she dug up a few days ago, or it could be something else.
“I can’t find out the specifics right now, but in any case, be careful yourself. The Thompson family is a ruthless bunch!”
Richelle responded with a hum, “Thanks, 1’11 be careful on my side. In the meantime, could you have someone help me find out if Kiara Dunn has a son?”
“You suspect that it was Kiara Dunn who took Timmy away back then and pretended to be his mother?”
Richelle had doubted this from the beginning, but what she couldn’t figure out was why Kiara Dunn didn’t go after Roy Lewis herself if he was her target at the time. contemporary romance
Or was it that Megan Linwood and her group really planned for another fat and disgusting old man, but she ended up on Roy’s bed due to a mix-up?
Or was Roy himself an accident at that time?
“I do suspect that, but I can’t investigate it on Roy’s side, so I’ll have to bother you to find out.”
After hanging up on Hugo Camrey, Richelle Dunn thought about it and eventually decided to call Roy Lewis.
She had been Roy Lewis’ personal doctor for almost half a month, and they mostly communicated through WhatsApp, very infrequently.
So when Roy Lewis answered the phone, the tone of his voice was clearly surprised.
“Dr. Dunn? What’s up?”
Richelle, afraid of arousing Roy Lewis’s suspicions, asked cautiously.
“Mr. Lewis, have you caught the mastermind behind the troublemakers from before?”
Originally, if the Thompsons were just causing trouble, there would be no need for Richelle to worry about it, nor could she worried about it.
If Jayden Dunn was involved, it would mean that The Dunns might already be suspicious of her. In that case, she had to be even more careful.”
Roy Lewis didn’t hide anything, “It’s someone from the Thompsons who’s taken the blame, but most likely it’s a scapegoat.”
After hearing this, Richelle realized that things might not be that simple.
“So, Mr. Lewis, are you planning to let it go this way?”
Richelle didn’t think she knew Roy Lewis well, but she knew that someone who holds the powerful position of the first family in the Federation at the age of thirty couldn’t possibly be a coward.
Roy Lewis seemed to not hear the mockery in her words and just replied.
“Yes, starting tomorrow, I’ll arrange two bodyguards for you. Nathan will add you on WhatsApp later, and besides confirming the endorsement, he’s also responsible for arranging personnel to ensure your safety.”
As his voice fell, a notification sound came from her phone. Richelle glanced at the screen, showing that Nathan was trying to add her as a friend.
How did these two manage to be so in sync?
“Are you with your assistant?”
She wasn’t supposed to ask this; she was just curious.
She didn’t expect a response, but he replied.
“No, I’m at home.”
Richelle thought he would explain more, but he only replied to her question and then stopped.
Richelle had to ask, “What’s the deal with arranging the bodyguards?”
Roy Lewis was silent for a moment, probably considering whether or not to tell her the truth.
However, Richelle had vaguely guessed the reason.
“Is it because the Thompsons might take action against me?”
Roy Lewis hummed affirmatively, “It’s not certain yet. Arranging bodyguards is for your safety. You don’t need to worry too much; I’ll deal with the Thompsons’ issue as soon as possible.”
Richelle herself wasn’t too worried, what she was really concerned about were the children.
“How about Timmy not coming to class for the time being? I’ll stay at the hotel for a few days.”
Since her identity was special, she was much more cautious than ordinary people.
After the Thompsons’ incident, she would change the route home every day and maintain 100% vigilance all the way.
At that time, she was just instinctively guarding herself.
Now that she knew about the danger, she wouldn’t put the children at risk.
Roy Lewis was silent for a while again, and then made a suggestion.
“1’11 have Nathan arrange your accommodation. Timothy, Tifanny, their mother, and Mrs. Walker can stay at my place for a few days so the children can be company.”
Richelle was particularly sensitive when it came to the children, and her first reaction was—Did Roy Lewis find something out?
First, he suspected Timothy and Tifanny wore masks to hide a secret. Then while the Thompsons caused trouble, he deliberately alienated her and now invited Timothy and Tifanny to stay at his house!
What on earth does he want to do?
