Chapter 824: Chapter 820 I’m being good, Master Lewis
Richelle Dunn glared at him, her face saying, “Mind your own business!”
Ignoring her threats and dissatisfaction, Nathan Caroule replied politely.
“Dr. Dunn, Roy isn’t asking for much – just for you to take care of yourself and everything else is secondary. Since your stomach hurts, if there’s even a tiny problem, I’ll be held responsible.”
Richelle clicked her tongue.
“You’re making a big fuss over nothing. I’m a doctor, I know how to take care of myself better than you guys. It’s just that today’s surgery took longer than expected, and I had arranged a meeting afterward, so I was in a hurry and forgot to eat.”
Nathan Caroule replied, “Dr. Dunn, you can explain all that to Roy later tonight. If he’s okay with it, then it’s fine.”
However, Roy couldn’t wait until the evening. As they were speaking, his call came through.
Richelle saw that it was Roy calling and glared at Nathan Caroule again before answering the phone.
“What’s up?”
“Don’t play innocent with me. Have you eaten?”
Roy’s tone was somewhat stern.
But Richelle wasn’t afraid of him. She deliberately put another small piece of cake into her mouth, smacking her lips before answering him.
“I’m eating right now. I’ve been well-behaved, Master Lewis! Don’t be so fierce.”
A typical case of taking advantage and acting innocent.
Nathan Caroule secretly rolled his eyes and tactfully left the room.
“Well-behaved enough to starve yourself until your stomach hurts? Are you feeling better now?”
Richelle picked up her cup and gulped down a mouthful of milk.
“I’ve had some cake and milk, so it doesn’t hurt anymore.”
Roy still seemed worried.
“I asked Nathan to order some takeout and medicine for you. Just eat a little cake to tide you over for now, and wait for the takeout to arrive before you get back to work.”
Richelle knew he was squeezing in a call during his busy schedule, so she didn’t tease him too much.
“Hmm, I’m really okay. Don’t worry – go back to work.”
Roy was indeed very busy. He responded with a hum and added,
“Alright, I’ll hang up.”
“Okay, I love you!”
Richelle threw a sweet bomb at him, and the man on the other end seemed to take a deep breath before answering after a pause,
“I love you too!”
After hanging up, Roy casually took the urgent documents from Benjamin Fred.
Benjamin, however, was a little embarrassed and apologized with a smile.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t realize you were on the phone.”
Roy didn’t mind – it was just a simple “I love you,” after all.
He would even dare to shout it out loud in front of everyone in Kindur and the entire Federation, not to mention in front of Benjamin.
“It’s okay. Richelle had surgery today and forgot to eat, so I’m ordering some takeout and medicine for her.”
Seeing his indifference, Benjamin’s face finally broke into a smile again.
“Youth is wonderful – openly expressing love and affection.”
Roy looked up at him.
“It’s not a matter of age. My uncle is quite open with my aunt, too.”
Benjamin was briefly stunned and then laughed.
“You’re right. It’s not about age; it’s all in the personality.”
Roy usually didn’t discuss relationship matters with his elders, and Benjamin was indeed older.
However, perhaps it was Richelle’s “I love you” that put him in an exceptionally good mood.
So, he unusually engaged in more conversation with Benjamin.
“It’s not even a matter of personality – more about the depth of love.”
Before Richelle came into his life, Roy never expressed his love out loud.
It was the same for his elders and his son.
He even thought that love was a burden to him.
However, after meeting Richelle, he realized that when you were deeply in love with someone, you would naturally want to express it.
Because you would be afraid that if you didn’t, she wouldn’t feel your love.
Benjamin hummed in agreement, “You’re right, it seems I should pay a visit to the flower shop after work tonight, too.”
His words reminded Roy.
Later, after enjoying a delicious meal of takeout, Richelle received a large bouquet of blue roses.
At the center of the bouquet was a small card with the words “I love you!” written in large letters.
As Richelle left the office with the bouquet, the employees in the lobby hooted.
“Mr. Dunn, are you going on a date with Master Lewis?”
“Mr. Dunn, be happy with Master Lewis!”
Richelle smiled and nodded to everyone before striding away with the bouquet.
Pictures of Richelle holding the bouquet, as pretty as the flowers themselves, were soon uploaded to the employees’ gossip group.
Sweet Bliss: “Once, I dreamed of comforting Master Lewis when he had a breakup. Now I’m heartbroken and wish Master Lewis and Mr. Dunn forever happiness and to grow old together.”
Mad Flowers Snow Moon: “Ah, just yesterday I was still obsessed with a fictional character couple. Now I’ve realized how fragrant a real-life couple can be! Plus, they come with three lively and cute kids – just kill me now!”
Beanstalk Melon: “I must say, Master Lewis and Mr. Dunn are the most perfect and sweetest couple I’ve ever seen in real life!”
Bug on a Leaf: “My heart melted! Master Lewis is so romantic – such a rich, talented, and handsome man. I pray to God to grant me a dozen of him!”
Priceless Flowers: “Wake up, Bug! There’s only one Master Lewis, and you’re not the capable, beautiful, and considerate person like Mr. Dunn!”
