Chapter 28: Daring to target her precious son? Tired of living?
"Master Lewis!"
Richelle Dunn suddenly changed her form of address.
Roy Lewis, who had been watching her coldly to see how she would handle it, looked at her with a deep gaze.
"Speak!"
Richelle Dunn had a slight smile on her face, but Roy Lewis could feel a trace of murderous intent in her smile.
Richelle Dunn pointed at James Lewis, "I heard that if someone from the Lewis family does something wrong, they receive a heavier punishment than ordinary people. Master Lewis, is this true?"
Richelle Dunn had heard long ago that the Lewis, the number one family in the Federation, had very strict family rules. If a member of the family committed a crime, they would have to face not only the law but also the severe punishment of the Lewis family rules.
Roy Lewis remained outwardly calm, but inside he had a good idea of what Richelle Dunn was up to, and gave her a mental nod of approval for her wit.
"Indeed there is!"
Actually, he was more on the side of helping Richelle Dunn.
However, because Richelle Dunn had been so brazen towards him just now, he had deliberately stood by and watched coldly to see what she could do to handle James Lewis.
Upon receiving this confirmation from him, Richelle Dunn gained confidence, gratefully nodded at him, took out her phone, and immediately dialed the police.
"Gordon Police Station? I am Richelle Dunn, a specially appointed doctor at Central Hospital. I have been subjected to sexual harassment at work, please could an officer come and handle this, the address is…"
James Lewis was dumbstruck at Richelle Dunn's actions, and upon reacting, he tried to seize her phone, resisting the pain in his leg.
"You bitch, if you dare to call the police, I will kill you!"
Richelle Dunn was not afraid of him yesterday and now that he has impaired his leg, she's even less afraid.
She nimbly sidestepped, lifted her foot, and tripped James Lewis who couldn't stop his forward rush. He fell heavily onto his face, it was like he was eating dirt.
Roy Lewis, who had been quietly observing, took the phone that Richelle Dunn still had on her ear.
"This is Roy Lewis, I will send the troublemaker and the evidence together later."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
James Lewis, who was still on the ground, felt a chill run down his spine when he heard Roy Lewis's words.
Supporting himself, he struggled to get up. The action pulled on a painful spot and he gritted his teeth in pain. However, he had no time to curse Richelle Dunn any longer and instead hobbled up to confront Roy Lewis.
"Roy, this isn't right! I'm your uncle and you're actually helping this bitch to bully me?"
Roy Lewis stepped back and sat back down on the sofa. Leaning back and crossing his legs, he clasped his hands on his lap and assumed an attentive posture.
"So tell me, how should we handle this?"
Upon thinking of the Lewis family's rules, James Lewis felt weak in the knees. This entirely softened his attitude.
"Did I do more than jest with this shitty… cough, Dr. Dunn? I didn't realise Dr. Dunn had no sense of humour despite being so young…" As James Lewis spoke, he noticed there was no change in Roy Lewis's expression, so he continued, "How about this? I won't make a fuss about her kicking me, let her retract the police report."
Last time, James saw a sideline nephew who got involved in a smuggling case get arrested. As a result of the family rules, his legs were crippled before he was even imprisoned.
Although his issue was a small one, if it ended up in the police station, even if he didn't lose a leg, he would certainly suffer a great loss.
Roy Lewis passed the ball back to Richelle Dunn's side, "Uncle James, I can't make decisions about Dr. Dunn!"
James Lewis turned green, "Roy, you…"
Roy Lewis raised his chin at Richelle Dunn and said, "I told you before, she is our highly paid expert, and I dare not offend her! And," He pointed to his head. "I still need her here!"
It sounded like he was trying to distance himself from the matter, but both James Lewis and Richelle Dunn knew that he was openly siding with Richelle.
James Lewis gritted his teeth in secret, wrestling internally. Just as he was hesitating to swallow his pride and apologize to Richelle Dunn, a small figure dashed out of the bathroom.
"Daddy, breakfast is ready!"
The young master washed his hands and ran out excitedly. Noticing there was an extra person, he stopped and stared hard at James Lewis, a shadow of gloom appearing in his eyes.
"What are you doing here?"
The young master never liked the elders of the Lewis family.
Roy didn't enjoy being disturbed by irrelevant people and so, Lewis family elders rarely appeared here.
James Lewis turned his head and saw the young master, he smiled awkwardly at him.
"Timmy, don't you recognize Grandpa James?"
The young master stared at him, lips pursed, Richelle felt a sudden change in his aura, he walked over and squatted down in front of him, and asked in a low voice, "Timmy, does this man have a foul mouth?"
The young master blinked his eyes, instantly understanding what Richelle meant by "foul mouth".
He whispered, "Uh-huh".
Richelle touched his head, "Then let me teach him a lesson!"
After that, she stood up with an icy look and told James Lewis.
"Mr. Lewis, normally I'm a quite patient person. The other day, Master Lewis gave me a little money." And her vision immediately shifted towards Roy.
Roy Lewis twitched at the corner of his eye. The day she accepted that check, she seemed like a primitive woman who hadn't ever seen money. But now, she dared to say it was "a little money"?
Roy, who was increasingly entertained by the drama that was unfolding, looked towards Richelle with interest.
Richelle exchanged a glance with him and continued, "Master Lewis said, it was a compensation from Edbert, who I saved. I thought since Master Lewis stepped in, I shouldn't pursue his criminal liability, after all, his mother almost died, which is quite pitiful. But, now that I know you're his father, I've changed my mind. They say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, and you being a beast of a father, it seems your son is also a beast in human skin. Let me do a good thing and send you guys to reform and reshape. I wish you two a good life in jail and have a promising future there!"
James Lewis could only react at this moment, this Richelle Dunn, was the doctor who had saved his wife.
That is, the handsome doctor who got punched by his dear son and then was shamelessly blackmailed by Roy for US$136,700 .
"Richelle Dunn, you bitch! You took the money…"
Richelle Dunn interrupted him with a cold laugh, "So what if I took the money? I don't feel guilty even if it were a million dollars or a billion! If it was not for me, your wife may have been dead right now and you may be mourning and kneeling before her grave!"
James Lewis blew his top at Richelle's words and his face turned green. He pointed and cursed at Richelle, "You want to die, bitch, relying on Roy's support, huh? I want to see how capable you are and how you dare to touch my son and me? I'll make sure you wish you were dead!"
Richelle was about to retort when suddenly her hand was grabbed by a soft little hand. She was startled, looked down, and saw the young master clutching her little finger with his chubby hand.
A warm current seemed to flow from her fingertip to her whole body, she covered her son's hand with her palm, then she straightened her chest, standing in front of her elder son for the first time like a mother.
"Mr. Lewis, if you dare to harm me, I swear I will break your leg!"
