Chapter 856: Chapter 852: Master Lewis’s Boyfriend Power
Roy Lewis brought back a large cup of popcorn, a Coke, and a milk tea. Richelle Dunn took the popcorn and teased him with a smile.
“What, did you meet more fans?”
Richelle discovered that Roy, as Master Lewis, also had quite a reputation.
However, those who admired him were mostly limited to businessmen or wealthy families.
Ever since he became the acting president, his fan base had grown rapidly.
After being in Cinemaxx for a short while, they had encountered less than ten people, a few of whom were his fans.
Roy had one free hand and couldn’t help pinching her face.
“Fans? They were just making sure it was really me.”
Richelle knew he was always low-key and didn’t expose him.
Arm in arm, they headed to the cinema.
“Let’s go, it’ll start in a few minutes.”
The movie was supposed to be a comedy, but it actually revealed various social injustices through humorous and absurd storytelling.
Richelle and Roy were sensitive people, so they didn’t laugh much during the film since every funny bit had a sad core hidden behind it.
They didn’t even touch their popcorn or drinks during the 90-minute movie, nor did they go to the bathroom.
As the movie’s plot concluded and the credits rolled, Richelle sat motionless, watching the subtitles scroll.
Roy put his arm around her shoulders and whispered an apology.
“Sorry, I thought this would help you relax, but it seems it did the opposite.”
Richelle shook her head, “No, the movie was quite good!”
Roy nodded in agreement, “It was pretty good. I guess the audience would cry once they digest the story.”
Richelle sighed, “The director and screenwriter are amazing!”
Back in the car, they were still discussing the movie’s plot.
Roy rubbed her hair, “Are you really not mad?”
He worried that she only said it was good just so he wouldn’t feel bad.
Richelle shook her head, “I’m not mad. While watching, I thought about asking Nathan to find out more about the director and screenwriter.”
It seemed like Roy could read her thoughts, “Are you thinking about investing?”
Richelle didn’t deny it, “If it’s a similar style as today’s movie, I would like to invest!”
Roy, being practical, said, “However, the board of directors will likely oppose this kind of movie.”
Although Richelle held a majority stake in the company, she rarely exercised her full power.
“I know!” Richelle nodded, “I don’t plan on investing in this kind of movie under the company’s name. But if I have the intention to invest, I’ll propose it first. If the directors oppose, I’ll invest on my own.”
Roy laughed, “Dr. Dunn, looks like you’re handling the role of Lewis Group’s president successfully, knowing how to deal with the board of directors.”
Richelle clicked her tongue, “Of course! If I invest privately without proposing, and lose money, they won’t say anything. But if I make money, they’d accuse me of being biased, keeping profitable projects for myself.”
It was now nearly 1 a.m.
After surgery, Richelle had only eaten a piece of bread in the car.
It wasn’t that Roy was mistreating her, but she insisted on watching the movie before having barbecue.
When it came to choosing a barbecue place, neither Roy nor Richelle knew where to go.
So when Roy asked Richelle for her opinion, she simply handed the choice to the driver, Parker.
“Parker, just take us wherever you think the barbecue is good.”
Parker was quite honest, “Dr. Dunn, the delicious and distinctive barbecues are usually from street vendors!”
In Parker’s view, Master Lewis and Dr. Dunn have noble backgrounds. Plus, with Richelle’s profession, street vendors might not appeal to them.
Who knew Richelle would turn to Roy and ask, “Do you have a problem with that?”
Roy shook his head, “I have no problem. I told you I’d listen to whatever you say.”
Roy had never experienced hardship, but he was highly adaptable, so sitting at a street vendor wasn’t unbearable for him.
Richelle then told Parker, “Let’s leave it to you, Parker. Just take us to wherever you think the barbecue is good and drop us off there.”
“Sure!”
Parker quickly agreed, and ten minutes later, they arrived at a bustling food street. Despite being close to 1 a.m, the area was packed with people and bustling with noise.
The aroma of barbecue, fried food, and beer wafted through the night air and reached Richelle’s nose.
“Wow! It smells delicious!”
Roy saw her adorable, food-craving expression and couldn’t help but lean in to give her a peck on the nose.
It was late autumn, and the night wind carried a chill. Richelle’s nose felt cold to the touch.
Roy quickly took off his suit and draped it over Richelle.
She tried to push him away, “I’m not cold!”
Roy glared at her, “Dr. Dunn, you’re so clueless. You have to let me show off my boyfriend skills!”
Richelle burst into laughter.
She tightened the grip on his suit, “Fine, I will enjoy Master Lewis’s boyfriend skills tonight!”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
