Chapter 680: Chapter 676: A Good Husband Who Loves and Pampers His Wife
Richelle Dunn suddenly burst into laughter.
She couldn’t help but tug at his handsome face, “Master Lewis, who would have thought, you’re such a hopeless romantic!”
Roy Lewis let Richelle play with his face for a while, then he touched her head and asked.
“How about we take a long vacation after we finish our work, and travel somewhere far this time, where would you like to go?”
Richelle became quiet, lying down and gazing at the starry sky above.
“Can I go anywhere I want?”
Roy hummed in agreement, “Of course, not just this time, but for all future trips, you can decide where we go.”
Richelle found it unbelievable, “We don’t have to worry about the kids?”
Roy clicked his tongue, “I’m only responsible for their lives for the first eighteen years, and during those years, they live attached to us. We decide where they go. Once they turn eighteen, they can go wherever they want.”
Richelle rolled her eyes, “I never knew you were such a heartless dad.”
Roy laughed, “But I’m a loving and loyal husband who adores his wife!”
Richelle was immediately amused by him.
“You’re quite shameless!”
Roy grabbed her hand, intertwining his fingers with hers.
“That’s because this is our life together.”
Roy naturally loved his three children very much, but compared to his love for them, he wanted to give more attention and affection to Richelle.
So when choosing between their children and Richelle,
He would definitely choose Richelle.
Richelle was touched by his words, so she nodded.
“Alright, I’ll think about it.”
The night sky was clear and there was not a single cloud, only the countless twinkling stars were competing to shine their brightest.
“I want to go see my parents…”
Roy held her arm and tightened his grip subconsciously.
“Alright, we’ve been talking about doing this for a long time but kept postponing it because of my condition. I really should accompany you to see them.”
Richelle snuggled closer to him, and Roy hugged her even tighter.
“Darren Moss said that my parents were really romantic and deeply in love. Actually, my memories of my parents are also like that.”
Roy stroked her head, “You resemble your mother more, but your father was very handsome, too. Even in another world, they are still a perfect, loving golden couple.”
Richelle hummed, admittedly feeling comforted.
“What about you? What were your parents like in your memory?”
These topics might have been taboo for Roy and Richelle a decade or so ago.
But now, they had a happy and fulfilling life with their beloved partner and their lively, adorable children.
Old wounds were gradually healed by the warmth of their present happiness.
Roy thought carefully about it.
“My dad was very serious and reserved, but he was always very gentle, caring, and loving towards my mom.”
When Roy’s father passed away, he was only three years old, so there weren’t many memories left in his mind.
Luckily, there were some DVDs in their old house that captured many moments of his parents together.
Most of Roy’s fond impressions of his parents came from those DVDs.
“After my dad passed away, my mom became deeply depressed. At that time, I resented her for it. Wasn’t I her biological son? How could she act as if she had died with my dad?”
“Now, I understand my mom’s feelings a little more. Maybe, if it were me…”
Richelle covered his mouth, not letting him finish his sentence.
“Roy Lewis, it won’t be like that. No, both you and I must promise each other that even if the worst happens, and one of us leaves first, the other will live a good life with the children, carrying on the wishes of the departed!”
Roy said nothing.
Richelle continued, “You didn’t know it back then, but actually, your mom was suffering from depression. If someone professional had guided her through it, maybe she could still be happily accompanying you and our children now.”
Roy shook his head, “No, I think she would rather be with my dad.”
Richelle couldn’t help but feel a bit sad as well.
“Roy, what you’re saying is making me want to cry!”
Roy lowered his head and gently kissed her eyelids.
“Don’t cry, I promise you, from now on, we will make the most of every day. And if something happens in the future, if you leave me and our children, I will still live well with them. Just promise me that you’ll wait for me on the other side, and then we can reincarnate together!”
Richelle nodded, “Mmm, same goes for you! You must wait for me, and not let your soul be charmed by some other attractive old lady in the afterlife and reincarnate early.”
Before Roy’s surgery, both of them were hesitant to discuss matters of life and death.
Now that Roy had mostly recovered, they dared to talk about life, death, and even joke about it.
“But, if we reincarnate together, we won’t have memories of our past lives, right? Would we even recognize each other then?”
Richelle didn’t actually believe in past and future lives, but for Roy’s sake, she was now willing to believe.
