Chapter 575: 571: All Are Good Seedlings
Richelle Dunn and the three children arrived at their destination in Bishvelle just after 11 a.m. local time.
Roy Lewis had arranged accommodation for them early in the morning, complete with a butler, nanny, and driver.
All of these staff members were from East Asia, and upon seeing Richelle, they respectfully addressed her as “Young Madame”.
They also addressed the children with respectful titles, such as young master or young miss.
The residence was a large villa with a huge courtyard and a lake. Although Hugo Camrey said that his family also had a property nearby, he decided to stay in the Lewis villa after spending an afternoon there.
The lecture that Timmy was attending, according to local time, was the day after tomorrow.
Richelle had originally agreed with Master Kingston that she would bring the three children to visit him tomorrow.
However, when they arrived at the villa, Master Kingston learned where they were staying and immediately announced that he would come over in the evening and stay for two days.
As Richelle instructed Uncle Matthew to prepare the guest room, Hugo happened to be in the living room drinking water. When Uncle Matthew left, he smiled and said to Richelle:
“Your Master Kingston must be coming over to fish and relax.”
Richelle didn’t understand why he would guess this and asked him with a puzzled expression,
“What makes you think that?”
Hugo pointed to the large lake visible through the floor-to-ceiling window,
“You may not know this, but the people around here know that the fish in this lake taste great. However, this place has always been a private estate, so they can’t come in.”
“Really? I didn’t know that!”
Hugo gestured toward her,
“Richelle, it’s time for you to take an inventory of Master Lewis’s assets.
Otherwise, if you casually give away one of these villas, you’ll be heartbroken.”
Richelle was not worried about this,
“He won’t. The only ones he would give to are me and the children.”
Hugo clicked his tongue,
“Really confident, aren’t you?”
Richelle laughed,
“There’s no choice but to be confident. It’s so easy for men to hide things from you.”
Hugo nodded,
“True. Speaking of which, Roy transferred all his shares to you. Isn’t he afraid?”
Richelle shrugged,
“You’ll have to ask him about that!”
Hugo thought for a moment and then shook his head,
“Never mind, I don’t dare to ask.”
Although Hugo was only a year or two younger than Roy, he had no way of comparing to Roy’s imposing presence.
If he weren’t such good friends with Richelle, Hugo probably would never approach a man like Roy Lewis in his entire life.
Master Kingston arrived at around seven in the evening. The villa was quite far from the entrance of the estate, so Uncle Matthew had to go out and guide him in.
After having lunch and adjusting to the timezone by taking a nap, the energetic children ran out to greet Master Kingston.
“Hello, Grandpa Kingston!”
Timothy and Tifanny actually met Master Kingston before Timmy did.
But Timmy called out, “Hello, Master!”
Richelle couldn’t help but click her tongue and greet him,
“Master Kingston.”
After calling him, she teased Timmy,
“My dear, you’re now my peer.”
Timothy also grinned and asked Richelle,
“Mommy, do I and my sister have to call brother ‘Little Uncle Master’?”
Richelle shook her head with a smile,
“No need, you two aren’t learning medicine.”
After seeing the children, Master Kingston took the kids to the lakeside to enjoy the view and told them to call him when it was time for dinner.
Worried that the children might cause mischief, Richelle and Hugo followed along.
Master Kingston asked about the recent situation of the three children and figured out that each child had their tasks and were primarily here to play and learn as a secondary objective. He couldn’t help but sigh in admiration.
“Richelle, it’s a good thing you have experience managing the children. I was worried that if this little guy didn’t come, I don’t know if he could continue on this path.”
The three children were playing with nets to catch dragonflies in front of Hugo. Richelle glanced at their cheerful figures,
“Master, you didn’t make it clear back then, so I just put myself in my past situation and guessed that he was probably going through a bottleneck period. But he’s still little, and if you talk to him about bottleneck periods and such, he won’t care.”
Master Kingston nodded,
“Yes, that’s the case. He’s too smart, and coming from such a wealthy family, he has too many paths to choose from. If he finds this one getting narrower, he will certainly give up.”
Richelle hummed in agreement,
“Now we shouldn’t be worried about that anymore. All we have to do is make sure that Andy will accompany him since I might not be able to go.”
Master Kingston had also heard the children’s plan for the upcoming days and knew that they had various arrangements for the three days.
“No problem, Timmy himself should be able to handle it.”
Richelle wasn’t too worried about professional matters, but there were issues that required an elder to handle properly.
Rightfully, she was the most suitable person to accompany Timmy to the lecture.
However, she couldn’t leave Tifanny behind.
“At that time, I’ll have his two senior brothers watch over him as well. You just focus on accompanying Tifanny to her piano lessons.”
Timothy and Tifanny had been well-liked by Sonia Seaton and her siblings during their stay in South Asia.
“Your Master said that Tifanny is going to participate in an international competition?”
Richelle nodded,
“Yes, her current instructor suggested this. Even if she doesn’t win, she’ll gain some valuable experience.”
Master Kingston sighed,
“They’re all such talented children. It’s just hard work for you to look after them all..”
