Chapter 545: 541: A Father’s Self-Awareness

Translator: 549690339

After the three children went out on this trip, their mood really did improve over the next few days.

In fact, they often took up their respective positions in a band in the living room, playing instruments, singing, and dancing, having a great time.

Roy Lewis was happy to see the children having fun, and it put him in a good mood as well.

Because of that, even when he had a video call with Kennedy Green, his face was filled with laughter.

“Roy, did something big happen?”

Roy’s eyes were full of laughter, “Yes, indeed, it’s a very good thing.”

He was now more and more aware that so-called great things were not about signing a big project or accomplishing an extraordinary task.

Rather, it was the fact that Richelle Dunn and their children could live a happy and enjoyable life. For him, that was the best thing in the world.

“Oh? What happened? Tell me about it.”

Kennedy knew about the children’s plans for their study tour because Roy had to apply for private air travel to fly them to their destination.

“Is it about the study tour?”

Roy shook his head, “No, the children are talking about forming a band!”

Kennedy was taken aback, “A band? What kind of band?”

“A rock band!”

After Roy finished speaking, he imitated Timothy’s head-shaking and drumming movements, and actually did a pretty good job at it.

Kennedy’s face also showed a hint of a smile.

“Hmm… It does seem like something worth being happy about.”

After talking with Richelle, Roy now felt like he was a very open-minded father who could accept and understand anything.

Roy nodded, “Uncle, did you ever go through a change like mine?”

Before Roy was in a relationship with Richelle, his understanding of other people’s feelings was quite slow. However, once Roy and Richelle got together and he observed his uncle and aunt’s relationship, he felt that their personalities were completely opposite, yet they had been in love for decades.

“Yeah, when your cousin first said he wanted to do research and not take over the Green Group, I almost broke his leg. It was your aunt who said she’d continue doing it if necessary…”

No wonder Richelle and her aunt were finding more and more common ground lately. Apparently, the two women had some similarities.

“Uncle, although I didn’t have any prejudice against women before, I did feel that they had no real foresight. But now, I must say, as mothers, women tend to have more insight and foresight on children’s issues than fathers.”

Kennedy nodded, “Of course, their children are their flesh and blood. No one hopes for their children to be happy and content more than a mother!”

After discussing their children for a while, Kennedy couldn’t help but sigh.

“I never thought there’d come a day when we’d talk about children.”

Before Richelle, Roy never proactively discussed Timmy with Kennedy for the four years he had been with the Lewis family.

He would answer a question if asked, but then quickly shift the conversation to work matters.

After hearing Kennedy’s sigh, Roy nodded with a smile.

“Yes, I’ve finally become a conscious father!”

Kennedy stared at him for a while before heaving another long sigh.

“It’s really nice; now when I see your mother, I can stand tall.”

After exchanging some more heartfelt words, the two men finally got down to business.

“Roy, your judgment was probably correct. According to the information sent by Leutonia’s leader today, there has indeed been a lot of activity in other countries recently.”

Roy replied with a grunt, “However, you still need to put more effort into this matter. Because the water flow in the river has become relatively gentle, and Mason Lilliput has offered a lot of money, I guess he’ll be able to enter the mountain soon.”

Kennedy nodded, “I understand. You keep an eye on things over there, and I’ll give the leader a call later to see if he can speed things up. If we can find solid evidence, he can ask for a joint siege mission.”

Both Kennedy and Roy were aware that now was the best time to uproot and expose the problems of the Thompsons and the Lilliputs.

If they missed this opportunity, it would become much harder to siege and eliminate them once their new transportation network was rebuilt and their Leutonian backup branches were fully operational.

As Roy had predicted, Mason did manage to sway some boatmen after raising his offer several times.

Though driving on the provincial road was still their best option,

the clearing of mudslides on the road was progressing slowly. According to the information received from their people, the road should be clear in just another few days.

“Uncle, I think we should just offer more money. If I double the price again, there should be someone willing to go into the mountains.”

Although Mason was reluctant to spend more money, compared to the endless losses caused by not delivering in large quantities, this extra spending was trivial.

“Alright, talk to someone. Once you’ve settled it, we set off immediately.”

Perhaps it was because the water flow had become less overwhelming, or perhaps it was because the price offered by Theodore Lilliput was indeed high, but, surprisingly, one boatman decided to take a risk and accept their offer..
