Chapter 551: 547: Did the old man give all his family property to Richelle Dunn?
“This matter should have been avoided in the first place.”
Mr. Simon was truly impressed by his stubbornness.
“Mr. Gregory, should I say you’re being obtuse, or just serious, or just impartial?”
Mr. Gregory took a sip of his drink, and said blandly.
“Whatever you say, it won’t affect my decision anyway.”
Mr. Simon really didn’t understand why this guy was so difficult to reason with.
“Mr. Gregory, I’m not talking about her relationship with the Lewis Group, or her identity, but about the new drug they’ve developed. Not to mention us, many countries are begging them to start production. Instead, you didn’t even bother to look at it and sent it back immediately.”
Mr. Gregory had another sip of his wine.
“I can’t let them monopolise yet another industry.”
Mr. Simon was flabbergasted.
“Fine, fine. You’re a world-saving hero, huh? Enough already.”
After a while, Mr. Simon handed Mr. Gregory a set of data he’d just obtained.
“Mr. Gregory, please take a look. For the third energy sector, the pricing of foreign monopolies is twenty percent higher than the Federation. As for the industrial sector, the foreign monopolists’ pricing is even thirty-five percent higher than the Federation. If you want to know more, you can check it out yourself.”
“Mr. Gregory, I want to give you a piece of advice, don’t know how to be grateful when you’re in a position of privilege. Mr. Lewis’s current situation is unclear, but we both know exactly what he’s unclear about.”
Having said this much, Mr. Simon no longer tried to persuade him and turned to attend to other guests with a glass of wine.
By this time, most of the guests had arrived. As the patriarch of the family, Mr. Lewis first took the stage to deliver a simple welcoming speech.
Then, he signalled his three beloved great-grandchildren to join him on stage.
“I’m grateful to all our friends and family for attending the banquet at the Lewis’s. This banquet serves to introduce two new members of our family. In the midst of our gathering, allow me to introduce them to everyone.”
The three little ones went over in unison as Mr. Lewis beckoned, standing on either side of him.
“This is my eldest great-grandson, Timmy Lewis, whom you all know. These two are Timmy’s twin brother Timothy Dunn, and twin sister Tifanny Dunn. My grandson Mo Nian and Richelle Dunn, the beloved daughter of the Dunns, were unfortunately separated for some time. Now they have returned with Timothy and Tifanny. The Lewis family is grateful for their trust, and in the future, we ask for everyone’s kindness towards these four.”
After Mr. Lewis finished introducing his three great-grandchildren, he signalled for Richelle Dunn to come up.
This banquet was mainly proposed by Richelle Dunn, who wanted it to be as high-profile as possible. So, she cooperated fully with Mr. Lewis and promptly appeared on stage, standing behind him.
“This is the mother of my three great-grandchildren, and also the beloved woman of my grandson Mo Nian, Richelle Dunn.”
Offstage, people began to whisper again.
“Oh dear, who doesn’t know that Master Lewis hasn’t married this unknown woman who popped up from nowhere. He doesn’t even dare to call her his wife, only his beloved one.”
“Isn’t that so? Even after having three children, they’re still not married. It seems he doesn’t take her seriously at all.”
“Poor Mr. Lewis, at his age, he not only has to deal with losing his son but also has to clean up after his grandson.”
“Just wait and see. Mr. Lewis isn’t someone to be trifled with. He’s probably just enduring because the kids are still young and he still needs Richelle Dunn. That’s the only reason he’s acknowledging her status.”
“Most likely that’s the case. Once these great-grandchildren grow up a bit more, he’ll kick Richelle Dunn out. The titles of Lewis Group’s acting president and mother of the children will mean nothing.”
Just as these rich ladies were certain they would soon see Richelle Dunn make a fool of herself, Mr. Lewis on stage beckoned to a middle-aged man in a suit.
The man walked over respectfully and presented a file.
The minute this man got on stage, not only the guests, but all the members of the Lewis family, were panicked.
A pale-faced Aldo Lewis couldn’t help but question, “Why is Mr. Bailes up there?”
Victoria Lewis was also distraught. “Oh no, has my father gone senile, planning to give his estate to that young doctor and the three little ones?”
Grace Lewis snorted coldly, “You all said that our father would be moved, and it seems he indeed has been. However, it was not by us, but by that vixen and the three little bastards.”
Aldo Lewis gave Grace Lewis a sharp look.
“Grace, stop talking nonsense!”
Ever since the second and third children met their end, Aldo Lewis seems to have wised up.
“Let’s see what the situation is first. Anyway, as long as my father is alive, even a will can be changed.”
If even the Lewis family was shaken, it was naturally a bigger shock to outsiders.
“That Mr. Bailes is the top lawyer in Kindur, and also Mr. Lewis’s personal lawyer. His presence means Mr. Lewis is going to make a public will?”
“Damn, right now only Richelle Dunn and her three children are on stage with Mr. Lewis. Could it be that he’s giving all of his estate to these four?”
“That can’t be, right? If that were the case, wouldn’t Mr.. Lewis’s other children rush on stage to fight?”
