Chapter 704: Chapter 700: Old Man, Are You Actually Protecting Alexander Lewis?

Indeed, having one more thing on the plate won’t make much difference.

But in Roy Lewis’s plan, Aldo Lewis, this person, and what he is doing now, can be dealt with after Roy sees daylight again.

So, whether Richelle Dunn knows it or not does not affect his future actions.

Given this, he does not want Richelle to expend unnecessary mental resources and worry on this matter.

More importantly, he wants to personally deal with these scum from the Lewis family.

“Darling, you’re working too hard. These are responsibilities that should have been mine, but are now all on your shoulders. So, consider the matter of Aldo Lewis as my attempt to make up for my guilt towards you by keeping things from you!”

Richelle Dunn was not satisfied with his explanation.

However, after understanding the cause of the matter, she was no longer persistently digging into the details.

“Fine, I won’t participate in this matter, but I hope you can inform me of any progress or changes. I am currently the president of the Lewis Group, the head of the village. It’s inappropriate not to know the inside story and progress of such a big matter.”

Roy Lewis responded with a sound of agreement, “From now on, I will tell you everything, no matter how small.”

Richelle Dunn nudged him lightly with her elbow in disgust, “Roy Lewis, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? Who said I want you to tell me everything, no matter how big or small? Does your request for Nathan to report work also involve reporting every last detail?”

Roy Lewis hurriedly apologized with a smile, “Sorry, boss. From now on, I’ll ensure only key points are reported to you!”

Richelle Dunn huffed, “That’s more like it!”

Then, she remembered the matter of the old master forcefully keeping Alexander Lewis in the old mansion.

“The old master left Alexander in the old house actually to prevent him from being involved in this matter, right?”

Roy Lewis nodded, “Aldo Lewis has been lazy for many years. He’s very adept at pursuing pleasure and food, but when it comes to doing real work, he’s truly incompetent!”

Richelle Dunn naturally did not understand the people of the Lewis family as well as Roy Lewis did.

“You think that Aldo Lewis and Alexander Lewis have secretly agreed to join forces and submit to Mason Lilliput, don’t you? And that the plot will be hatched by Aldo Lewis, while the real deal is handled by Alexander Lewis?”

Roy Lewis responded with a sound of affirmation, “Actually, the one who first detected Aldo Lewis’s intention to win over Alexander Lewis was the old man.”

Richelle Dunn thought seriously, “The old master trapped Alexander, in fact, in an attempt to save him, right?”

Roy Lewis exhaled deeply, “Richelle, don’t blame the old master for this. He believes that there may still be hope for Alexander. However, in my view, this is probably the last chance!”

Richelle Dunn didn’t show any dissatisfaction or displeasure.

“I can understand the old master’s action. After all, that’s his own grandson. And judging from the things Alexander has done to me, the old master has already given him enough punishment. You and the old master don’t have to feel obliged to me for this. He is him, you are you!”

She was also a mother, and if her child made a mistake.

The mother would inevitably be his most reliable harbor.

A place where he could heal, and also offer him a chance and place to repent.

Roy Lewis tightened his arms, holding her tightly in his embrace.

“Thank you for understanding…”

Richelle Dunn shook her head, “It’s nothing…”

She asked again, “You said this is the old master’s last protection for him. Do you think Alexander is hopeless?”

After quite a bit of thought, Roy Lewis finally spoke.

“Well, Alexander does pragmatically in his very core. However, perhaps due to the education he received from his parents from a young age, he has a natural hostility towards my father and me.”

“In the past, he hid it very well, or perhaps the incident with his father awakened his hostility. Now, to be blunt, he’s just wishing our family would die!”

Roy Lewis’s voice became colder and colder. Upon hearing this, Richelle Dunn shivered involuntarily.

“He wouldn’t go that far, would he?”

Roy Lewis shook his head, “I also hope that I’ve misjudged him. So, even though the old master didn’t seek my opinion this time, I agreed with his decision when I found out about it.”

Richelle Dunn took a deep breath.

“I suppose so. After all, we’re all blood relatives. We can’t just stand by and watch him head down the path of destruction. If there’s still hope for salvation, we should naturally help. Otherwise, the so-called family would be meaningless.”

After talking about the matter, the guilt in Roy Lewis’s heart indeed lessened significantly.

Previously, he was cautious because he was afraid that Richelle Dunn would mind.

Now that everything is out in the open, he can breathe a sigh of relief.

“By the way, there is a meeting tomorrow. Nathan might not have time to attend. You should talk to him later to see if you can handle it tomorrow. If it can’t be done, ask him to reschedule.”

Richelle Dunn went over her schedule as the President of Lewis Group.

“Are you referring to the meeting discussing the acquisition with the Lodiva Group?”

Roy Lewis nodded, “Yes, this acquisition case was actually discussed once a year ago, but since the other party was indecisive, we directly rejected it.”

Richelle Dunn thought pensively, “So this time, they proactively propose to be acquired, and you guys fear there might be a trap?”

“Yes! Even though tomorrow is the first time both parties will discuss cooperation intentions, I recommend you pull up their old files from last year and get a little acquainted with their situation. Don’t let them catch you unprepared.”
