Triple Blessings: Mr. Fu's Passionate Pursuit

Chapter 772: Chapter 768: Master’s Decision to Withdraw is Final

However, in just a little over an hour, the online uproar calmed down quickly.

Richelle Dunn and Sonia Seaton were oblivious to this, holding Kennedy Green’s latest medical report and discussing adjustments to the current treatment plan in detail.

After discussing work matters, Sonia Seaton began chatting with Richelle about personal matters.

“Why did you suddenly get the certificate when you said you were not in a hurry before?”

Richelle had mentioned the marriage certificate to Sonia that night, and they had actually discussed it a few times later, but both were busy and only talked about work matters. As a result, Sonia had forgotten to ask about it.

Richelle didn’t hide anything, “I can’t tell if it was Roy Lewis’s whim or a premeditated plan. He was quiet when he left in the morning and came to the Lewis Group to pick me up in the afternoon. I slept the whole way and didn’t find out we were getting married until we arrived at the civil affairs bureau.”

Sonia Seaton clicked her tongue and looked disdainful.

“With your cluelessness, he’ll eventually sell you off, and you’ll still be foolishly helping him count the money.”

Richelle laughed, “No way, he can’t bear to part with me!”

Sonia Seaton rolled her eyes, “Fine, since you two are a perfect match, I won’t hold you back, nor can I. Anyway, as your master, I wish you happiness.”

Richelle opened her arms and hugged Sonia Seaton tightly, kissing her cheek.

“Thank you, Master!”

Sonia found her to be too cheesy and pushed her away with a disgusted look.

Unable to push her away, Sonia had no choice but to accept her fate.

“Roy Lewis asked me what dowry I wanted, but I don’t need anything. I forgot to ask you, do you two newlyweds need any gifts?”

Richelle didn’t need anything.

“Master, having you here is the greatest gift.”

Sonia had expected this answer, “Then I’ll give you the laboratory as a wedding gift.”

Richelle was speechless and half-jokingly asked.

“Master, can I refuse this gift?”

Although this matter was already settled, if it weren’t for Sonia not being able to find anyone better than Richelle, she really wouldn’t want to take over the laboratory.

Sonia’s expression was serious, “No!”

Richelle didn’t say anything else, only asking her.

“Does the research topic Master is going to work on require an assistant?”

The main reason Sonia wanted to transfer the laboratory to Richelle was that she was preparing to devote herself to the study of ancient medical books.

She hoped to discover more lost medical achievements in these ancient medical books.

Richelle’s intention was clear to Sonia.

“Of course, I need an assistant. But for someone like you to be my assistant would be a waste of your talent. I just need a few young people who can settle down and help me find some information and record it.”

What she meant was that a highly skilled disciple like Richelle had more important things to do.

“Master, why don’t you continue being in charge and let me be your deputy?”

Richelle understood that researching ancient medical books might take ten or twenty years without any significant discoveries or results.

This move by Sonia Seaton was tantamount to fading out of the fame and fortune game.

Her name would gradually fade from people’s sight as the number of her new works and findings decreased.

Sonia Seaton pushed her away and glared at her.

“Fool, how is that different from before? I know you think that I’ll be giving up fame and fortune, but you should understand me. I never did all this for fame and fortune. If it weren’t for you and a few other children, I would be alone until I die. What’s the point of fame and fortune for me?”

Richelle clicked her tongue, “Master, fame and fortune are just as meaningless to me.”

Sonia Seaton shook her head, “Fool, you’re different from me. You can actually stand at a higher place now, but you’ve always been under the title of ‘Sonia Seaton’s top disciple’, which isn’t fair to you!”

“Everyone in the industry knows that you, Richelle Dunn, have surpassed your master. Thus, you need an opportunity to show everyone that you are Richelle Dunn, not Sonia Seaton’s top disciple!”

Richelle, of course, understood Sonia’s painstaking efforts.

Yet, after all these years, she has always regarded Sonia Seaton as both a teacher and a mother. Now that Sonia was about to fade away, she couldn’t bear it!

“Master, can’t you just stay?”

Sonia Seaton shook her head, “As long as I’m here, your senior brothers and sisters, and you, will have to live under my influence. It’s unfair to all of you.”

Richelle disagreed with her opinion.

“Master, if we continue to live under your influence, it means that the light we emit is still not as bright as yours. The day our light is brighter than yours, we naturally won’t live under your influence anymore.”

Sonia nodded, “You have a point. I don’t need to worry about you. In a year or two, you’ll be just Richelle Dunn. But I can’t say the same for your senior brothers and sisters.”

Since this involved the other senior brothers and sisters, Richelle suddenly didn’t know how to persuade her further.

Yet, she still felt that it wasn’t worthwhile nor fair.

“Master, how about this, let’s make the laboratory leader position shared between you and me?”
