Chapter 473: 469: My Man, My Decision
He reached out to touch her face with a smile.
“Alright, I know I’m a bit ugly right now, but since you don’t mind, it’s fine.”
Richelie Dunn giggled.
“Yeah, you’re my man, and I call the shots. Only I have the right to mind, and since I don’t mind, what do you have to worry about?”
When Richelle went to get a wet towel to wipe his face, Roy asked her suddenly.
“Honey, what if I can’t see in the future? What should I do?”
Richelle clicked her tongue, “As long as your handsome face comes back, I’ll support you!”
It was a serious question, but the two treated it as a joke and laughed it off.
Isn’t that just life, after all?
Disappointments are common, and when unexpected accidents or disasters come, you just have to deal with them with a smile.
Roy grunted in agreement.
The hidden panic and helplessness in his heart vanished in an instant.
Richelle wiped his face for him and did all the necessary cleaning work.
Then, as a doctor, she worked with the hospital director to do a quick examination on Roy.
In just over a day, Roy’s condition improved significantly.
Richelle discussed with the director, “I’m planning on adding acupuncture treatment for him.”
The director wasn’t very knowledgeable in this area, “Dr. Dunn, you’re the expert in this field, and you’re Mr. Lewis’s primary attending physician, so you have the final say.”
Richelle glanced at Roy, hesitated for a moment, but decided to share her thoughts here.
“After his brain surgery, the blood stasis and swelling are quite severe. If his recovery isn’t positive, he may need a second surgery.”
The director looked at Roy subconsciously, “Dr. Dunn, this…”
Richelle grabbed Roy’s hand, “He surely wants to move in a positive direction, so both he and we, as doctors, should be prepared for both outcomes. However, given his recovery in the past two days, the chance of a second surgery is very low.”
The director nodded.
He understood that Richelle was actually trying to encourage Roy using a reverse method.
“Alright, we’ll listen to you.”
After the director left, Roy didn’t ask about the second surgery but asked Richelle,
“When do you think I can get out of bed and move around?”
Richelle knew he was uncomfortable lying down all the time, so she gently massaged his shoulders and back.
“Given your current condition, we’ll see in a few days.”
It mainly depended on his rib recovery.
Richelle’s hand moved to his lower back, “If you feel numb somewhere, let me know, and I’ll massage it for you.”
Roy grunted, “After you’re done this time, go do your own things.”
Richelle looked at him seriously, “Are you tired already?”
Roy was noticeably more energetic today.
“No, but I think you must have a lot to do. Isn’t your master’s project nearing completion?”
Richelle was now practically Sonia Seaton’s first assistant. The more important the project stage, the higher her involvement.
“Has Master Seaton told you everything?”
Richelle seriously suspected that Roy must be calling her master on a regular basis.
Otherwise, he couldn’t possibly know so many details.
However, she couldn’t expose Roy’s little tricks either.
After all, it was heartwarming and touching that someone she cared for also cared for her and cherished her.
“Have you forgotten that I’m the investor in this project? Of course, I need to be informed about the progress.”
Roy was right to say that.
But Richelle knew all too well that compared to the multi-billion dollar projects of the Lewis Group, their charity-focused project was hardly even a small project in his eyes and could easily be handled by assigning just one employee to follow up.
“Have you forgotten that this is our own business? I’m working extra hard, and even my master scolded me for giving preferential treatment.”
Of course, Richelle was joking.
She was very passionate about this project.
First, the beneficiaries of this project were the poor children in the Third World.
Second, since moving into Roy’s house, she had managed to squeeze out more time for herself by freeing herself from domestic chores and taking care of the children.
Third, with Denise Munni overseeing Dunn Group affairs and Roy helping with the Dunns, she had more time to spare.
Most importantly, her mindset had changed. She used to be eager to repay her master and then do what she loved, but now she was sure that this was what she loved the most.
So, given all these factors, Sonia Seaton felt that her proud disciple was now more devoted to her work than ever before.
“Master Seaton is pleased with you now, and your mentor seems to be quite happy too.”
As Roy mentioned this, Richelle remembered that she hadn’t yet told him something.
“By the way, my design school graduation certificate… The teacher used my award as a reason to apply for a re-issue. A few days ago, the teacher told me that the school approved it. They asked if I wanted to re-issue the old certificate or get it together with this year’s graduates..”
