Chapter 313 - 313: 309: Is this, love at first sight?
Elizabeth Lewis’s mind was clear, “Brother, even if the old man doesn’t give those two kids that 4% of the shares, it wouldn’t fall to us anyway!”
Sebastian Lewis was angry, “You fool, if the old man didn’t distribute it, we would get more when he dies. Now that he has distributed the shares, what can we get when he dies?”
Elizabeth Lewis still didn’t give in, “Brother, as his sons, your words carry weight. As a married daughter, how much I get from the old man depends on his personal will, I can’t influence him at all.”
In truth, Elizabeth understood that with the old man, a crying and noisy child wouldn’t necessarily get anything.
Sebastian failed to persuade her and turned to consult with his other siblings for a strategy.
Richelle went to the airport to pick up Denise Munni after giving Roy Lewis his acupuncture treatment the next day.
The two chatted and laughed on their way back to the city, arriving in no time at the restaurant for dinner.
Since it was Richelle and her best friend, she got to choose the restaurant.
After trying the dishes at a private kitchen, she couldn’t forget the taste of the food there.
She decided to have their meal at that private kitchen.
It usually didn’t open during the day, but Roy Lewis asked, so the owner had to come to the restaurant in his slippers while yawning. He personally supervised the chefs in preparing the dishes for their banquet.
During the break, he came to the private room where Roy Lewis and the others were sitting and complained.
“Master Lewis, it’s one thing for you to wake me up in the middle of the day, but who is this important person you’re personally waiting for?”
Roy Lewis glances at him lightly, “My sister-in-law’s best friend, be careful with your words later on.”
Roy Lewis didn’t know much about women’s friendships but knew that female best friends were like male best friends, close enough to feel like brothers or sisters.
Since this was his first time meeting Richelie’s best friend, he had to make a good impression, so Richelle could hold her head high.
Upon hearing this, Old Brown stood up straighter.
“In that case, I need to perform well! I’ll go back to the kitchen and hurry things up. I’ll bring your sister-in-law a bottle of my aged wine. You don’t have to prepare any more wine, Master Lewis!”
Richelle parked the car outside the courtyard, locked it, and walked with Denise around the car. Denise couldn’t help but turn to look at the old car again, then complained.
“Richelle, doesn’t Mr. Lewis’s family have any spare cars? Why are you driving such a broken-down car?”
There were indeed several luxury cars idle in Roy Lewis’s garage. However, Richelle was used to keeping a low profile, and even when Roy Lewis gave her a set of keys for each car, she still preferred to drive her old car out.
“It’s better to keep a low profile!”
Denise thought about her situation and nodded in understanding.
“Right, this isn’t like South Asia, and both you and Mr. Lewis probably have many people seeing you as thorns in their sides.”
Richelle hummed in agreement and didn’t explain further, heading inside with Denise arm in arm.
She sent a message to Roy Lewis upon arrival, and they opened the courtyard door to see two tall figures approaching.
Roy Lewis and Nathan Caroule appeared in front of them quickly.
Richelle introduced them to Denise with a smile, “Denise, this is Roy Lewis, the father of my three children. This is his assistant, Nathan.”
Roy Lewis nodded at Denise with a smile and shook her hand.
When Denise shook hands with Nathan, they looked into each other’s eyes and seemed glued together.
Their hands held onto each other for quite a while before letting go.
Richelle had already moved further inside but stopped when she noticed their actions.
“Denise?”
However, Roy Lewis saw it clear as day. Seeing Nathan holding onto Denise’s hand without letting go and his eyes glued to her, what couldn’t a man understand in this situation?
He reached out to Richelle, “Richelle, let’s go to the kitchen and check on Old Brown’s cooking.”
Then he turned to Nathan,
“Nathan, please take good care of Ms. Munni. Oh, the courtyard is quite distinctive. You can go for a walk together. Also, there is a small attic called ‘Fun Labyrinth’ you can check out. There are many interesting things inside!”
Richelle was initially puzzled, thinking Roy Lewis had something private to say to her. However, hearing him arranging for Nathan, a man who rarely meddled in other people’s affairs, and seeing Nathan’s flushed face, she finally realized what was going on.
Looking at her friend Denise’s bashful reaction, it seemed she wasn’t opposed to Nathan’s blatant staring and even looked back with interest.
Had they…. fallen for each other at first sight?
