Translator: 549690339

Richelle Dunn had never thought, that Master Lewis, who was always indifferent and haughty, acting superior to everyone, could actually have such sticky moments too.

What surprised her even more was, the moment he held her in his arms, her heart, which had felt hollow all these days, seemed to have been filled suddenly.

It turned out that she was just like this man, needing, a recharge.

Richelle Dunn was not an affectated person, when she realized she had the same needs, she directly wrapped her arms around his waist.

In these few days, the weather had turned warm, and both of them were only wearing thin long-sleeved shirts. In such an intimate embrace, each could clearly feel the warmth and touch of the other’s skin.

After burying his head in her neck for a while, Roy Lewis lifted his head, lowering his eyes, looking at Richelle Dunn with a tender gaze.

His palm, at first, was just resting on her back, but at some unknown point, it moved to her slender waist.

She was wearing a loose silk blouse today, and the warmth from Roy Lewis’s palm was instantly transmitted onto Richelle Dunn’s skin.

She slightly trembled, she looked up at him with her faintly blushing face, her long eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings.

Roy Lewis’s heartstrings were plucked to create a beautiful and uplifting melody, watching her eyes, his tenderness increased.

Richelle Dunn’s face was flushed, but she did not shy away. Instead, she also looked back at him with a soft gaze.

Their heated gazes tangled for a good while, neither spoke.

Time seemed to stand still.

At last, it was Roy Lewis who found his reason back, asking Richelle Dunn with a hoarse voice,

“Richelle, what should I do? I think I don’t want to wait anymore!”

Richelle Dunn froze, biting her lip with her eyebrows frowned, trying to find some reasons to stop or soothe him.

Roy Lewis looked down at her, waves of heat rolling in his eyes, he truly did not want to wait anymore.

But he, didn’t want to make things difficult for her either.

He restrained the heat in his eyes, reached out his hand, touched her wrinkled brow, a hint of amusement in his eyes.

“Fool, I was just teasing you…”

Richelle Dunn looked at him for several seconds, a thin layer of mist covering her beautiful eyes.

Roy Lewis’s gaze deepened, wanting to take back what he just said!

Richelle Dunn didn’t know what was going on in the man’s mind, she lifted the corners of her lips, showing him a clean smile as pure as the morning sun.

“Hmm, let’s go in, the kids are getting impatient.”

Roy Lewis let out a silent sigh in his heart, reluctantly letting go of her, and followed her into the living room.

“Hello Daddy/Uncle!”

Three little brats shouted from the patio, and after greeting, they continued to bend their butts over something on the mat.

“What are they playing?”

Richelle Dunn truthfully informed him, “At noon, they were video calling your grandpa, and they started playing chess while chatting. The result is, even when the three smelly kids teamed up, they couldn’t win against your grandpa and got smashed. Just now, I finished teaching them, and they immediately went to review the game.”

Roy Lewis shook his head with a smile, “They still have a long way to go. Grandpa used to be a few-time champion of the Federation Youth Tournament. If he hadn’t returned to take over the family business, he would have been one of the international chess players.”

Richelle Dunn gave him a sidelong glance with a smile, “Are you indirectly boasting about how great you are?”

Roy Lewis shook his head in denial, “I didn’t! I was talking about Grandpa, not me.”

Richelle Dunn tsks, “But I heard Timmy say, his biological father can sometimes win against Grandpa Clarkson.”

Roy Lewis tilted his head to look at her, “But I also remember, Timmy said you are quite amazing!”

Richelle Dunn rarely encountered an opponent, so with Roy Lewis’s enticing words, she couldn’t help but be itching to start a game.

She handed the tulips to Mrs. Walker, rolling up her sleeves and giving Roy Lewis a slant glance.

“Mr. Lewis, shall we have a round?”

Roy Lewis hasn’t played chess in a long time. Firstly, he honestly wasn’t that free.

Secondly, the people around him, except for Grandpa and his old housekeeper, were all not good at chess, which made it uninteresting to play.

However, if the opponent is Richelle Dunn, even if she’s a newbie, it probably won’t be too boring.

“Sure, let’s play…”

Roy Lewis thought that when Timmy said she was strong, he was talking from a kid’s point of view.

But after just a few steps, he realized that Richelle Dunn was not just strong from a child’s perspective. She was genuinely formidable.

If his intuition was correct, her skill level may even surpass his grandfather’s.

“Richelle, who taught you chess?”

Despite being South Asian, her chess-playing style was distinctly Federation-like.

Roy Lewis was a formidable opponent, so Richelle Dunn did not dare to be careless, that’s why, without diverting her attention to answer his question, she blurted out an answer without thinking.

“I learned from my parents.”

It was the first time for Roy Lewis to hear her mention her parents after so long.

“Your parents…”

Richelle Dunn suddenly realized, then she raised her head and smiled at him.

“Oh, they have already gone to Sukhavati and live happily ever after.”

Roy Lewis did not expect this answer and quickly apologized.

Richelle Dunn winked at him and said, “It’s okay.” She touched her heart and added, “They are here with me, living happily ever after.”

Roy Lewis said nothing, he just extended his hand and gently stroked her head.

After a round of mutual testing, both Richelle Dunn and Roy Lewis realized that the other was a formidable opponent.

So, they both put aside other things and focused on the game.

The kids who were studying the game on the terrace, they silently gathered around at some point, watching their parents play with enjoyment. They were too nervous to even breathe.

Ultimately, after a fiercely contested half-hour, Richelle Dunn won a narrow victory over Roy Lewis.

Roy Lewis hadn’t had such a thrilling match for a long time. Even with his grandpa, he, in truth, withheld some of his strength.

But when playing against Richelle Dunn, he really gave it his all. In the end, he still couldn’t turn the tables and lost narrowly.

“Dr. Dunn, you surely know how to keep your skills under wraps!”

Roy Lewis had clearly lost the game, yet his mood was unusually good.

Richelle Dunn smiled and shook her head, “It’s only because you underestimated your opponent at the beginning. With your ability, it would be pure luck if I were to win.”

The children have always known that their parents were good at chess. But that was all. Now, after witnessing this intense duel between these two contenders, their eyes were full of admiration for their parents.

Roy Lewis wanted to play a few more rounds with Richelle Dunn, but a phone call from Nathan Caroule forced him to rush back out.

Richelle Dunn escorted Roy Lewis out, who had not been home for even an hour, “If you won’t have time tonight, let Timmy stay over.”

The phone call Roy Lewis took was brief, he just said “I got it, I’ll be there right away,” before hanging up.

So, Richelle Dunn guessed that it should be something rather important or serious.

“Alright, let him stay.”

Roy Lewis agreed promptly, which made Richelle Dunn even more confident about her assumption.

“Then you be careful. If you can, send me a message tonight.”

Richelle Dunn was not someone who liked to keep tabs on other’s actions, even though in her heart, she had already accepted Roy Lewis’s special place.

Even so, this reminder of hers was not for him to report his whereabouts but to confirm his safety.

Roy Lewis lowered his eyes, trying to spot the concern and affection he sought in hers.

After getting a satisfactory answer, he reached out and squeezed her face, replying softly.

“Okay, I’ll call you..”
