Chapter 531: 527: Could you accompany me?

Translator: 549690339

Richelle Dunn was secretly taken away two days later, leaving the three children no choice but to stay at home.

Fortunately, the Lewis house had plenty of space and a large garden for activities.

The three kids could keep each other company, and even without their mommy around and unable to go out, they were still happy and lively.

However, Roy Lewis, after spending a long time with Richelle, couldn’t help feeling abandoned and lonely as he stayed home to look after the children.

Not wanting to burden the kids with his loneliness, he casually asked the relationship expert, Nathan Caroule.

“Nathan, didn’t Ms. Munni go give a report at headquarters a while back? How did you deal with it?”

Nathan started rambling as soon as he mentioned it.

“Roy, those days were unbearable.”

Roy Lewis nodded. “Yeah, it seems that once we get too used to peaceful days, we can’t handle changes.”

Nathan agreed, “That’s right. I used to be content on my own, but after getting married, I can’t stand being on my own.”

Roy felt that he had finally found a companion in misery. “Are we falling… emotionally, maybe?”

Nathan laughed.

“Human nature tends to seek good things. We want good food and comfortable living. Of course, we want to be happy. It’s not necessarily that we always need someone else’s company; but having someone there makes us happier, so naturally, we hope that the person who brings us joy will always be with us, right?”

Roy thought about it and figured it made sense.

So, he gave in to his longing heart.

But understanding it and experiencing it were two different things. It was truly painful, especially when lying alone in the big bed at night, the bedroom so quiet that all he could hear were his own breathing and heartbeat.

This silence made even the thick-skinned Roy feel lonely.

He tried calling Richelle, but her phone was switched off.

This meant that Richelle was still on her special mission and couldn’t communicate with the outside world.

Richelie’s unavailability lasted for two days, during which Roy barely slept.

Even though he still took his traditional medicine, and even added some of the medication he used to take, he still slept uneasily.

Roy felt like he had regressed in age by more than twenty years, just as Richelle said about him being Childish Roy. Suddenly, his sense of security vanished.

It wasn’t until the third day that a video call from Richelle came through, and his crumbling heart finally felt alive again.

As he answered the video call, Richelle’s face filled the screen – the face he had missed day and night.

“Baby, when will you be back?”

Even though he was an adult, his words sounded like a child whining to Richelle.

Richelle was taken aback momentarily before she asked, smiling,

“Master Lewis, are you trying to act cute to me?”

Roy couldn’t help but feel helpless. “If I act cute, can you come back tomorrow?”

Richelle’s smile grew even wider. “Probably not, but I can promise one video call a day.”

Not good enough for Roy.

“That’s not enough. One call during the day and at least one more before bedtime. Agreed?”

Roy meant that the video call with the kids didn’t count; there had to be one just for him.

Richelle had already experienced his level of childishness, but she couldn’t believe he was still setting new records.

“Roy Lewis, are you a child?”

Roy looked at her seriously. “That has nothing to do with being a child. People need love and care at any age. You’ve ignored me for two days; don’t you think you should make up for it?”

Richelle had no way of dealing with the unreasonable Master Lewis in front of her.

“Fine, one call during the day and another one just for you at night. That’s enough, right?”

Richelle could already foresee that when their kids grow up and she and Roy get older, Roy would be even more clingy.

Roy got what he wanted, and finally returned to his Master Lewis demeanor.

“How’s everything going?”

Richelle nodded, “Smoothly. If all goes well, I should be back the day after tomorrow.”

Roy sighed silently, “How about the experiment? Is it done?”

“Yes, it is. My master wanted me to start it today, but I started it last night. That way, I can finish all the work a day ahead of schedule and return home earlier.”

Richelle didn’t mention that, like Roy, she wanted to be home more than ever during any of her previous missions.

Perhaps Roy had become too clingy because of the long period of recovery, making him somewhat fragile.

And she, during this period of togetherness, had also grown dependent on him.

“Roy Lewis!”

It had never occurred to Richelle before that one day, she would actually think about bringing a family member along on her missions.

But over the last few days, the idea had crossed her mind more than once.

It would be so nice if Roy were by her side.

Roy didn’t know what was on her mind but looked deeply into her eyes. “What’s the matter?”

Richelle looked back at him with the same intensity, “From now on, when I go out on a mission, if it’s allowed, will you come with me?”

Roy’s eyes lit up with joy, “Of course! As long as you want me to, I’ll accompany you anywhere, from the ends of the earth to the depths of the sea, and through heaven and hell!”
