Chapter 178: Chapter 174: Richelie, you are not an outsider!

Translator: 549690339

Richelle Dunn stood in a “non-related” position, making it difficult for her to comment on Roy Lewis’s actions and words.

So she just nodded and said “Oh,” “So that’s how it is…”

Seeing Richelle behaving in such a silent and reserved manner, Roy wasn’t too pleased, even finding it hard to accept.

Before this, Roy had never mentioned Timmy’s “background” or his true relationship with Kiara Dunn to Richelle.

First, Richelle had only been Roy’s doctor and teacher, and it wasn’t necessary for her to know so much detail.

Second, apart from the beautified version of the events that appeared in his dreams, Roy was unwilling to recall the night of Timmy’s conception. That night was an infuriating accident for him, and the feeling of being manipulated and losing control was really terrible.

Now, Richelle was no longer just a doctor or teacher to him, and he needed to be honest with her about Timmy’s situation.

“Richelle, do you think I’m being too harsh on Timmy’s mother?

Ordinarily, one would assume Kiara to be his ex-wife or at least his ex-girlfriend in order for Timmy to exist.

If that were the case, it would be rather cruel and frightening for him to come down so hard on his ex-wife or ex-girlfriend.

Richelle hadn’t expected Roy to interpret her evasive response in that way, but carefully considering it, she could see how a normal person might think that way.

“Mr. Lewis, every family has its difficulties, and as an outsider, I don’t know enough to have a position to comment on your family matters.”

Her statement made Roy furrow his brow.

“Richelle, you’re not an outsider!”

At least in his heart, she had long ceased to be an outsider.

Richelle understood his meaning, “I know, but…”

In fact, Roy wasn’t the first patient to develop feelings for her during the treatment process. The experience of handing over one’s absolute dependence and trust to another person was very similar to the feelings between a man and a woman, making it easy to confuse and create an illusion…

Afraid of misunderstandings, Roy interrupted her somewhat anxiously.

-Richelle, although it sounds awful coming from me, Timmy’s birth was an accident.”

“I had no particular emotional attachment or special relationship with Kiara; beyond that one night, there were no connections between us.”

Richelle was shocked not by the revelation, but by Roy’s openness and honesty.

For a moment, she didn’t know how to respond to him. She suddenly didn’t know what would be appropriate to say given her current situation and position.

However, Roy interpreted her silence as difficulty accepting his “truth.” He gazed at her for a while before speaking.

“I know it sounds incredible, even despicable for me to say this, but as the dominant party in this situation, I had to present myself as the victim. Even from your perspective as a woman, I understand these words may seem unbelievable…”

Arguably, Richelle might not claim to understand Roy.

However, she had always trusted his character.

Therefore, she looked into his eyes very seriously, shookher head, and rejected his judgment.

“No, I believe you!”

From the beginning, even though she knew nothing and had no guarantees, she subconsciously believed that on that night, he definitely would not be the perpetrator.

Otherwise, she would not have let him gradually invade her life, much less allow him to appear in Timothy and Tiffany’s lives as a father figure.

Admittedly, this also contained a selfish desire to fulfill her children’s wishes, but this selfishness was only indulged after ensuring the safety of her children.

Roy’s eyes twinkled with gratitude, “Richelle, thank you for believing me.” Richelie’s emotions were mixed as she looked at Roy’s sincere yet somewhat unfamiliar expression. Suddenly, the idea of risking everything and confessing everything came to her mind.

Yet, she harshly pushed down that dangerous thought.

Reason reminded her that now was not the right time to talk about it.

From Roy’s words, he viewed that night the same way as her – as a nightmare.

And his aversion to Kiara Dunn also made Richelle feel some fear.

If she admitted at this moment that she was the one involved that night, would Roy Lewis also develop a deep hatred towards her?

Moreover, how could she explain and persuade him, without any evidence, that on that night, she was just a victim rather than an initiator?

After all, it only makes sense that anyone who covets a man like Roy Lewis, who is at the peak of the male hierarchy both internally and externally.

“Mr. Lewis, you and Timmy deserve better!

This refers not only to that night, but also to the various situations between Kiara Dunn, the Dunns, and Roy Lewis now.

Roy Lewis stared deeply at her, and in her clear eyes, there was no hint of doubt or disdain.

It was then that he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He was convinced that Richelle had received the truth he wanted to convey.

He also believed that Richelie’s words came straight from the heart without any pretense.

“Richelle, thank you for understanding!

At this point, Roy Lewis didn’t say anything more.

Because if he went on, his words today would seem to have ulterior motives.

“I’m going to have breakfast first; you sit down and rest a while.”

Roy Lewis was always a tactician, both in business and in dealing with people. Although Richelle was different from anyone he had ever met, he could always, with his intuition, shake her will and rationality little by little.

Of course, Roy Lewis didn’t know that he had done these things to Richelle mostly based on intuition.

He let his feelings guide him.

But Richelle knew this time, she was probably, truly finished!

To calm her restless heart, Richelle once again visited the Lewis Group’s official website.

As the official website was only a place where the Lewis Group released internal and external policies and notices, there was no comment function.

So Richelle went to Microgrid and searched for “Lewis Group.

Suddenly, all the news that popped up was about the Lewis Group suppressing the Dunn Group.

Richelle just wanted to see the reactions to the Lewis Group’s announcement online.

After all, these reactions would more or less affect the changes in the Dunn Group’s stock price after today’s opening.

She thought some people would sympathize with the Dunn Group since they were the weaker party in this situation, often the ones who easily gained sympathy from others.

But she never expected all the comments she found online were lopsided, favoring the Dunn Group.

There were waves of online discussions, almost all expressing sympathy for the Dunn Group and criticizing the Lewis Group.

Richelle frowned as she browsed through more than a dozen comments. Although the expressions were different, they all conveyed the same meaning. They all implied that the Lewis Group was taking advantage of its dominant position to oppress the Dunn Group and gain more profit margins.

In the whole incident, the role of the Lewis Group had changed from a legit business defending its rights to a hegemonic company that bullied the weak.

This development doesn’t seem good!

Richelle sighed silently in her heart, and Harris Dunn’s face flashed through her mind.

All these online discussions had evidently been planned and pushed by

someone.

And that master planner could very well be Harris Dunn.
