Richelle Dunn certainly couldn't agree to let the Lewis family's chefs work in her home. Not only would she refuse, Mrs. Walker wouldn't agree either. This was clearly robbing someone of their job.
"They can come to my house to work. When they have time, they can cook some grilled ribs. Timothy and Tiffany should like it too."
On the rare occasion Richelle made a request, Roy Lewis immediately let Timmy arrange it with Uncle Axel.
Timmy of course understood that his dad was using this as an opportunity for some alone time with his mom.
He glanced at his mom, saw that she didn't have a strong reaction, closed his book, slid off the bed, and ran out of the room.
Richelle waited until he left and the door closed with a "bang" before she realised. Now, only she and Roy Lewis were left in the bedroom.
Roy Lewis seemed to have his next topic of conversation planned as soon as he sent their son away.
