“I asked where you went. I’m in your office. It’s working hours, but you’re neither in the office nor the building. Where have you gone? Don’t tell me you went to business meetings. Your secretary
is still here.
“Did you go looking for Liberty again? How many times have I told you? Liberty is not suitable for you. She’s a divorced woman with a three–year–old child. That child is even a son. You may be willing to raise a son for someone else, but I don’t want to be that child’s grandmother!
“Besides raising someone else’s son, you’ll have to buy a house and car and get a wife for him. His father won’t contribute anything and will laugh at you for being a doormat. Duncan, there are so many young, pretty ladies in Wiltspoon. Any one of them will be better than Liberty.”
Mrs. Lewis was about to be angered to death by her son.
He would not listen to her at all.
Mrs. Lewis’s words grew increasingly harsh.
Duncan said in a deep voice, “You don’t have to worry about my matters. I’ll take charge of my life. I’m not like my brothers.”
After speaking, he ended the call.
Mrs. Lewis was exasperated.
She paced around in Duncan’s office. The secretary watched her cautiously and dared not even
let out a breath.
After walking back and forth several times, Mrs. Lewis went to the sofa and took her bag. She told the secretary, “Go on with your work. I’m leaving.”
The secretary said respectfully, “I’ll escort you down.”
Mrs. Lewis said as she walked outside, “There’s no need for that.”
The secretary still escorted her to the elevator. He watched Mrs. Lewis enter the elevator and only left after the doors closed. He quickly sent a message to Duncan.
“Mr. Lewis, your mother may be on her way to you.
It was evident from Mrs. Lewis’s furious look that she would not let it slide. The secretary was willing to bet that Mrs. Lewis was definitely on her way to Ms. Hunt’s place to look for their CEO.
Everyone in Lewis & Co. knew that Duncan was wooing Liberty.
They were shocked and did not believe it. However, it was true.
Some people often went to All You Can Eat for breakfast. They knew Liberty had successfully lost weight and looked much prettier now. She had a nice temperament as well. They did not find it weird that Mr. Lewis would fall for her.
Although Liberty was divorced and had a three–year–old son, she had a mature bearing of a married woman to her, which added to her charm. It was expected that Mr. Lewis would fall in
love after interacting with her frequently.
After Duncan received his secretary’s message, he mentally calculated the time needed for his mother to arrive if she was heading over.
To prevent his mother from spouting harsh words in front of Liberty, he said to Liberty when his mother was about to arrive, “Liberty, I have some matters to attend to. I’ll leave now.”
Liberty knew what was going on.
Ever since she rejected Mrs. Lewis’s request to leave Wiltspoon secretly with Sonny, Mrs. Lewis’s call would always ring not long after Duncan came to look for her.
Sometimes, Mrs. Lewis would even come personally.
However, she was still courteous toward Liberty and never humiliated her to her face.
Nevertheless, Liberty knew Mrs. Lewis had spoken countless harsh words while Duncan was on the call with her. Liberty could more or less guess based on Duncan’s gloomy expression.
It was usually about how she was a divorced woman with a three–year–old son who did not deserve Duncan.
“Go ahead, Mr. Lewis.”
Liberty did not see Duncan off. After washing his hands, Duncan hugged Sonny and left reluctantly.
After he had left, Liberty asked her son, “Sonny, shall we live in another place?”
They could move to a high–end neighborhood where entry was restricted unless the visitor had an entry pass or was guided by the residents.
Liberty had the ability to rent such a house.
With that, Duncan could not come to her place without her bringing him in or an entry pass.
Liberty finally chose to run away.
