Chapter 462: Chapter 458: Mister Fu Falls Off the Horse

Translator: 549690339

Roy Lewis spoke with Richelle Dunn and their three children for about three or four minutes. It was unclear if it was by accident or not, but the camera shifted for a moment, and Richelle clearly saw a spire outside the window in the video frame.

The camera quickly returned to the snow-white wall of the hotel room, but the spire had been visible only for a brief moment in Richelle’s sight.

At the time, Richelle didn’t pay much attention to it. After all, her heart and focus were entirely occupied by Roy, so she didn’t have the brainpower to think about anything else.

However, after putting the children to bed that night and while taking a shower, Richelle suddenly remembered the spire—it should be a famous landmark, but she couldn’t recall where it was located.

After she finished showering and sat on the chair drying her hair, a complete image of an ancient building suddenly popped into her mind.

And that ancient building had a spire that was identical to the one in Roy’s video frame!

Richelle quickly threw the towel onto the bed, turned on her computer, and searched for the name of the building to find the image of the ancient structure.

It was a famous centuries-old building located in the central region. When Richelle saw the specific image displayed on the computer, she became even more certain.

The spire she had briefly seen was indeed a part of this building.

So, was Roy’s overseas trip in the central region?

To confirm her guess, Richelle looked up the local temperature.

Indeed, it was similar to what Roy told her.

Also, taking into consideration the tense situation and extremely challenging internet connection in the area, everything seemed to add up.

Now, Richelle was almost certain of Roy’s precise location on his trip.

Initially, she didn’t inquire further into the matter.

After all, it was just a business trip destination, and its importance didn’t matter much to her.

Of course, due to the tension in the central region, she was a bit worried.

However, remembering Roy’s commanding expertise and abilities when he had previously saved her master, she felt reassured that her husband was more than capable, even in such a place.

Subsequently, she closed the search result images, logged into the top-secret system, and checked to see if their primary financier had replied.

As soon as she logged in, she saw the financier’s reply.

“The original mission can be terminated entirely, and a new mission is pending.”

Richelle checked the time of the reply—it was approximately when she was chatting with Maggie Mitchell in the garden over tea.

“Okay, I’ll wait for your notification.”

Now, it seemed that Richelle had defaulted to a long-term cooperation arrangement with the financier.

Even though the financier had hardly any communication with her other than the tasks.

However, she could feel a certain level of tacit understanding had been reached between the financier and herself.

“Also, for the original mission payment, I will reimburse any extra amount calculated back to you.”

Richelle sent two messages in succession, but there was no response from the other party.

Richelle didn’t mind, considering how elusive the financier had always been.

She remained logged into the system while opening another laptop to check the data her master’s laboratory had sent her.

The project Roy had invested heavily in was progressing smoothly. If all went as planned, she would have to return to South Asia soon to handle a series of follow-up matters.

There was a lot of data today, and it took Richelle some time to sort it out.

Glancing at the time, she quickly saved the data and checked the laptop that was still logged into the system, where her sent messages remained.

She moved the mouse, preparing to close the conversation box and log out of the system.

However, in that instant, a strange and unbelievable thought flashed through her mind.

What if the financier was actually Roy Lewis?

As soon as this thought appeared, it could not be contained.

Richelle hurriedly moved the mouse back and started scrolling through her conversation history with the financier, pulling it back all the way to the very first message exchanged.

“What is the additional condition?”

At that time, her relationship with Roy had just begun to improve.

She was thinking about how to deal with the Dunns, so she wanted to obtain some confidential information from that assignment.

“All Dunn Group files in Lordon, I want a copy.”

The financier’s response was concise.

“Reason?”

As Richelle affirmed the financier was Roy, she noticed the conversation style and tone were indeed like Roy’s at the time.

Likewise, the financier had sent her quite a few Dunn Group secrets. These files had aged over time, and Richelle couldn’t find them on the internet.

Not long after she completed her first assignment, news broke out that the Dunn Group was being investigated by the authorities.

Later, the financier tasked her with investigating the Thompsons, which coincided with the real-life conflict between Roy and the Thompsons.

More recently, when Roy was injured by someone, it happened on the same day that Richelle had accidentally obtained some information and sent it to the financier.

She clearly remembered that after completing the task, she went downstairs to find Roy, who told her he had important matters to attend to outside.

Subsequently, Roy was injured by his colleague..
