Richelle Dunn stood in a "non-related" position, making it difficult for her to comment on Roy Lewis's actions and words.
So she just nodded and said "Oh," "So that's how it is..."
Seeing Richelle behaving in such a silent and reserved manner, Roy wasn't too pleased, even finding it hard to accept.
Before this, Roy had never mentioned Timmy's "background" or his true relationship with Kiara Dunn to Richelle.
First, Richelle had only been Roy's doctor and teacher, and it wasn't necessary for her to know so much detail.
Second, apart from the beautified version of the events that appeared in his dreams, Roy was unwilling to recall the night of Timmy's conception. That night was an infuriating accident for him, and the feeling of being manipulated and losing control was really terrible.
Now, Richelle was no longer just a doctor or teacher to him, and he needed to be honest with her about Timmy's situation.
"Richelle, do you think I'm being too harsh on Timmy's mother?"
