Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu's Passionate Pursuit - Chapter 689: 685: I protect him, just like he protects me

Chapter 689: Chapter 685: I protect him, just like he protects me

Having successfully resolved matters with Harris Dunn, Richelle Dunn returned to Kindur. Instread of going home immediately, she had the driver take her to the hospital.

The elder, delighted to see her, began to argue about wanting to be discharged from the hospital again.

“Grandpa, you need to behave this time and recuperate well in the hospital,” said Richelle.

The elder’s overall health indicators had already returned to normal levels. However, Richelle Dunn and Roy Lewis took extra precautions and asked the director and several experts to conduct a full set of examinations on him, supplemented with a complete 72-hour monitoring check.

The elder seemed lively and his speech also returned to a tenacious form.

“There is no need for any recuperation. I am very healthy. If it weren’t for that darn Alexander Lewis upsetting me, I’d be at home playing chess with my great-grandson right now,” grumbled the old man.

Richelle handed the man a peeled apple.

“Grandpa, if you’re in excellent health, why did you end up in the hospital after getting upset…?”

Richelle reminded him.

The old man glared at her and took a large bite of his apple as he grumbled.

“You’re starting to act more and more like Roy, always trying to control me! You’re not cute at all!”

Richelle laughed and said, “So should I leave you alone and let Tifanny and the others take care of you?”

The moment the elder heard this, he quickly shook his head and waved his hand.

“Oh no, definitely not. Those three are such a hassle. They chatter incessantly, which is even more annoying than Monk Tang’s tirades.”

Richelle couldn’t help but laugh, “Right, I’m not as cute as you thought, replace me with three little Monk Tang’s, and see if you can still cope!”

It is said that everything has its antidote, and any one of the three from Lewis family could keep the elder on his toes.

It would be strange if the elder could handle all three of them together.

While munching on his apple, the old man heaved a sigh and said.

“Fortunately, those three little ones take after you. They’ve added a lot of liveliness and color to this home. If they were all like Roy, that would be unbearably boring!”

Hearing the elder’s complaints about Roy, Richelle rose to his defense.

“Grandpa, in fact, the three children resemble Roy in many ways. Timmy’s calmness and stability, Timothy’s strategic thinking, and Tifanny’s astuteness, they’re all like him. In regards to me, if it weren’t for life circumstances, I’m afraid I would be an unruly little monkey!”

Richelle has always had a clear self-perception.

Given her temperament, if she hadn’t experienced so many ups and downs, she might still be traveling around and having a carefree life.

The older man pointed at her with a helpless smile, “You always defend Roy!”

Richelle actually agreed on this point.

“Grandpa, if I don’t protect him, who would? I’m just protecting him the same way he protects me.”

The elder knew what she meant and suddenly felt a twinge of sadness.

“Oh, you two have had such hard lives. Roy should be leading a blessed life, but his uncles and brothers are all ungrateful… I’ve provided for them, allowed them to live in luxury, but in the end, they not only fail to show gratitude but also repay kindness with grudges…”

Richelle’s expression also became solemn, “Grandpa, my tolerance towards Alexander has reached its limit. If he makes a mistake again, I may not just let Delroy beat him up.”

Since Alexander was dragged out of the hospital and given a sound beating by Delroy that day, though he didn’t suffer severe injuries, he still had to recuperate at home for several days before he could show his face in public again.

Richelle has rarely used violent methods to solve problems before.

But now she found that for someone like Alexander, nothing is more satisfying and direct than giving him a good beating.

The elder looked at her with remorse, “I told you last time that whatever you decide to do with him, I wouldn’t have any complaints. And besides, when I get discharged from the hospital, I’ll also have a stern chat with him.”

Richelle wasn’t concerned about the elder’s plans on handling Alexander.

She only knew that if he dared to lay a hand on her children again, she might actually kill him!

Richelle spent nearly half an hour with the elder in the hospital, and then she asked the driver to take her to Camrey Technology.

With continuous persuasion from his parents and elder uncles, Hugo Camrey finally agreed to return to work at Camrey last month.

Richelle brought him some local specialities from Lordon when she visited there.

Hugo Camrey, receiving a large bag of specialities, was very pleased.

“Richelle, why didn’t you tell me you were going to Lordon? I could’ve flown there and eaten my way through the streets.”

Richelle pointed her finger at his large office, “Mr. Camrey, you are now a high-level executive with an annual salary of millions. Can you afford to play hooky?”

Hugo Admission took her joke with a grain of salt.

“Honestly, it’s not as comfortable here as it is in my little cybercafe. Usually, at this time, I would still be in bed, dreaming sweet dreams.”

Richelle also sighed, “More than a year ago, you and I were just online friends, living leisurely lives. Who would have thought we’d end up like this after more than a year.”

Hugo nodded, “Yes, life is unpredictable. I really thought I could live a carefree life. But then, no matter how much you refuse to grow up, you still have to.”

Richelle comforted him, “But you’re actually more willing to keep it this way, right? Your mom’s disease has been cured, and your dad can finally take her around the world.”

Hugo also felt relieved, “Yes, as children, we can’t be kids forever. When we grow up, it’s time for our parents, who have worked hard for most of their lives, to finally enjoy life. Whatever we are supposed to bear, sooner or later, we have to.”
