The family of five were ascending in an elevator, and soon the shimmering sea appeared outside the transparent elevator, reflecting the moonlight.

The sea breeze stirred up the waves, one by one rushing towards the silver-white beach. You could faintly hear the sound of the tide hitting the shore.
âRoy Lewis, is this villa yours?â
Roy Lewis took her hand, âNo!â
Richelle Dunn exclaimed, only to hear him add.
âItâs ours.â
Before Richelle Dunn could retort, Timothy by her side let out a deep sigh.
Richelle Dunn looked at him confused.
She heard him say to Timmy and Tifanny with a mournful tone.
âBrother and sister, we must start working hard to earn money. All of daddyâs money and belongings belong to mommy. We are, in fact, penniless.â
Richelle Dunn burst out laughing.
Roy Lewis spanked Timothy and playfully scolded him.
âYou little rascal, isnât it natural for a daddy to give what he earns to his wife? You and your brother have earned quite a fortune, havenât you? How did you become penniless?â
Timmy retorted, âDaddy, the fortune my brother and I earned is earmarked as our sisterâs dowry.â
Roy Lewis didnât like that at all.
âWhy should any penniless fellow who wants to marry my precious daughter receive so much dowry? Let him run off! My darling isnât marrying!â
Even though the conversation was hypothetical, Roy Lewis seemed to take it very seriously and got genuinely angry.
Richelle Dunn found it amusing.
âMr. Lewis, this is not even a real issue, why are you angry? Besides, money isnât everything. Someone can also be talented and capable but not yet have had their big break, isnât that right?â
Roy Lewis shook his head, âThatâs not right, my darling isnât here to pity the poor. We canât possibly let our little princess suffer like that.â
Richelle Dunn wanted to say something else, but even the usually objective brothers nodded in agreement this time.
âExactly, we agree with daddy. We can give out the dowry, but the groom canât be penniless.â
Richelle Dunn was speechless. Although it was a hypothetical situation, she could already foresee the uphill struggle the future son-in-law would face.
âSister, you hear that? When you find a boyfriend, he canât be penniless.â
Tifanny nodded with a mischievous smile, âI know!â
Richelle Dunn found her naivety adorable, âBaby, what do you know?â
Tifanny replied with a laugh, âPenniless means having not a single coin in your pocket, right? If heâs really that poor, I can have him pick up an empty bottle, sell it, and get a coin. Problem solved!â
Everyone present knew that Tifanny was joking.
Even so, her father and brothers were still irritated by her words.
It wasnât until the family reached the living room on the second floor of the villa and sat down that the three men finally loosened their faces.
Richelle Dunn, barely holding back her laughter, pushed Tifanny, âSister, hurry up and appease your father and brothers!â
Why would Tifanny need to cajole her father and brothers?
She just ran over and hugged each of them, give them each a peck on the cheek, and all their stern faces melted into smiles.
Only when they started smiling, Tifanny then said cheerfully.
âDaddy, brothers, donât worry. When I find a boyfriend in the future, Iâll measure him against your standards. Those ambitionless and useless men wonât catch my eye.â
Richelle Dunn burst into laughter.
Roy Lewis cuddled up Tifanny even more, kissing her and saying, âThatâs right, just take your daddy and brothers as a standard. You canât go wrong.â
Richelle Dunn thought to herself, there might not even be a suitable candidate in Kindur.
The small controversy over Tifannyâs future boyfriend gradually subsided.
Having hustled around for a whole day, Richelle Dunn was sent by Roy Lewis to soak in a bath. The three children huddled on the ocean-view terrace, chattering about who knows what.
Roy Lewis meanwhile settled down to deal with some urgent matters. And when Richelle Dunn came out from her bath, he pulled her over.
Sitting on the sofa, Richelle Dunn handed him the towel. As he was drying her hair, he asked.
âHow did it go?â
Richelle Dunn nodded, âI learned a lot. Without attending this seminar, I wouldnât know how powerful the Federationâs staff could be.â
Roy Lewis touched her face, âStill angry?â
Richelle Dunn scoffed, âWhy should I be angry about this? You know me. If Iâm not happy, I will fight back, whoever he is. Especially when justice is on my side, even if I had to go through the whole Federation, I wonât fear a single argument.â
Roy Lewis gave her a thumbs up.
âOur Dr. Dunn is really powerful!â
Richelle Dunn shook her head, âIâm not powerful. Heâs just shameless.â
Richelle Dunn then told Roy Lewis the information Sonia Seaton had found.
Roy Lewis listened, his face unreadable.
âMr. Gregory, promoted by my uncle, is quite capable and resourceful. I didnât expect him to be such a narrow-minded scoundrel who couldnât differentiate between public and private.â
Richelle Dunn wasnât sure what Roy Lewis was planning to do. However, she already had a plan.
âYou donât have to do anything. I think public opinion will naturally do me justice.â
âPublic opinion?â
