Chapter 872: Chapter 868: You’re Injured, Don’t Act Tough
Later, when the three children came back and saw Roy Lewis’s bandaged arm, they immediately showed worried expressions.
“Daddy, how did you get hurt again?”
The three children were all traumatized by Roy Lewis’s previous illness.
Twice in a year, he had been seriously sick, scaring the three children out of their wits.
Roy Lewis hugged the three children with one arm and kissed them on their faces.
“It’s nothing, Daddy just got injured by accident. It’s a minor injury, and I’ll recover very soon.”
However, the three children did not quite believe him, and looked worryingly at Richelle Dunn for confirmation.
“It’s indeed a minor injury. Mommy just changed his dressing.”
The three little ones simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief.
It had been a few days since Roy Lewis had hugged the three little ones. Now, he reached out to lift Tiffany up.
Tiffany, however, held his hand, “Daddy, you’re injured now, don’t overexert yourself!”
Roy Lewis was somewhat touched and somewhat amused by his daughter’s reaction.
“Sweetie, it’s just a small injury for Daddy, and it won’t stop me from holding you.”
Tiffany still stubbornly held his hand, and looked up at him with a smiling face.
“No need to hold me, holding hands is also nice!”
Roy Lewis’s heart melted under the beaming smile of his precious daughter, as he held her little hand and walked towards the inner room while motioning for Timmy and Timothy to follow.
Timmy and Timothy did not show any signs of jealousy, as they had grown accustomed to their father’s doting on their sister.
Following closely behind Roy Lewis, the brothers asked him for advice.
Surprisingly, their topic for advice was about the recent performance of Dunn Group’s stock in the stock market.
Roy Lewis glanced at Richelle Dunn and noticed her calm expression. Then, he openly began to analyze the unusual performance of the Dunn Group stock with the two little ones.
“Daddy, do you think Dunn Group’s stocks will continue to fall, or have they reached bottom and will slowly rise again?”
Roy Lewis answered seriously.
“It depends on whether their company has any practical decisions that can restore the confidence of the stakeholders. If it continues to be the current rumor-based reporting, it can be maintained for half a day, but once the retail investors realize the truth, it will trigger a massive sell-off, and the stock will fall even faster!”
Timmy and Timothy nodded in understanding, and then Timothy said to Timmy.
“So, brother, not buying those stocks was the right decision.”
Roy Lewis was a bit surprised, “You two were planning to buy Dunn Group stocks?”
Timmy nodded, “Yeah, Timothy said that Dunn Group’s stocks had potential, and we thought we could earn some extra dowry for our sister by investing in some potential stocks anyway.”
Roy Lewis and Richelle Dunn exchanged glances and patted the heads of the brothers.
“Good judgment, you can buy in large quantities if you have the money.”
Timothy tilted his head to look at him, “Daddy, aren’t you afraid we’ll lose all our money? Everyone in the industry is pessimistic about the current Dunn Group.”
Roy Lewis chuckled, “What’s the big deal? Worst comes to worst, Daddy will cover your losses and consider it tuition fees.”
Speaking of which, other families spend a fortune to raise their children.
His three children haven’t really cost him much.
Besides, the Dunn Group is not like other shell companies.
The plummeting stock price is merely a perceived value by retail investors. In the eyes of experts, the true value of the Dunn Group is not low.
Therefore, if the two little ones buy some Dunn Group stocks and don’t rush to sell, the chance of losing money isn’t high.
Roy Lewis, however, decided not to mention this and let the brothers make their own decision.
Timothy confidently replied, “Daddy, rest assured, you won’t have to pay for this tuition fee.”
Timothy inherited Roy Lewis’s talents and keenness in economics and finance.
“By the time Mommy takes control of Dunn Group, me, my brother and sister will be its small shareholders.”
Roy Lewis was a bit surprised, and glanced at Richelle Dunn again.
Richelle Dunn shrugged, indicating she had never mentioned this matter in front of the children.
Roy Lewis then realized that he had underestimated the two boys to some extent.
Timmy patted Timothy’s head and laughed.
“Timothy also said that eventually, Lewis Group and Dunn Group will all belong to us siblings.”
Roy Lewis couldn’t help but laugh, “That seems to be true! So you three better work hard together. In the future, all of this will be left to you three, as Mommy and I plan to retire early.”
Timothy pouted, “Even if you retire early, you still have to wait until we’re in love and married.”
This time, even Richelle Dunn couldn’t help laughing.
“Sweetie, are you already thinking about love and marriage?”
Timothy confidently admitted, “Of course! We’ll have our own families and children too.”
Because of the loving environment created by Roy Lewis and Richelle Dunn, all three children in their family were full of longing for love, marriage, and family life.
Of course, they probably didn’t understand the details yet.
But their parents’ love had already imbued them with a deep longing for love, marriage, and family from within.
After being separated for a few days, the family laughed and talked while enjoying a pleasant dinner together.
After dinner, Richelle Dunn said to the three children,
“Darlings, Mommy and Daddy are going to the hospital to see your Grandpa Clarkson. You guys stay at home and keep him company.”
The three children didn’t question her and waved goodbye cheerfully to their parents.
Once in the car, Richelle Dunn called Mr. Chapman to arrange someone to check on Roy Lewis.
Roy Lewis felt that Richelle Dunn was a bit too serious and overreacting.
On the other hand, he felt a strong sense of gratefulness and intimacy at being cherished and valued by her.
“Richelle, I’m so lucky to have you.”
Richelle Dunn glanced at him and smirked.
“Mr. Lewis, have you forgotten that I am still your personal doctor and currently receiving a million-dollar annual salary? If I don’t take good care of you, won’t I be tarnishing my own reputation?”
Roy Lewis playfully flicked her nose, “Tsk, hypocritical! Is it so hard to admit that you care about me?”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Richelle Dunn grabbed his hand and bit it lightly.
“What use is it for me to care? The key thing is that you need to take good care of yourself. Even as your personal doctor, I’m not omnipotent. I can treat minor injuries and illnesses, but there are some injuries I cannot heal!”
Richelle Dunn had been holding back these words.
Because she also understood that with Roy Lewis’s status, danger was always present, no matter where he went.
There are dangers both out in the open and hidden that are difficult to guard against.
Roy Lewis kissed her forehead and gently rubbed their noses together, looking deeply into her eyes.
“Baby, I promise I’ll be more careful in the future and try not to worry you.”
Richelle Dunn bumped her forehead against his and gritted her teeth.
“I hope so!”
Roy Lewis then whispered sweet nothings to her during the rest of the ride.
Arriving at the hospital, Richelle Dunn left Roy Lewis with Mr. Chapman and went back to her office to check her emails.
Mr. Chapman, the cunning man, immediately leaned in close to Roy Lewis and asked in a low voice.
“Master Lewis, what did you do to offend Dr. Dunn again?”
Roy Lewis showed his injured hand, “Because of this!”
