Chapter 1613
Liberty did not believe that Mrs. Lewis would randomly pass by somewhere near her rented house.
Surely, Mrs. Lewis came to meet her on purpose.
She took a glimpse of her son who was having fun. Then, she turned her eyes to Duncan and said,“Mrs. Lewis, I’m outside now. It’ll take time for me to return.”
“Oh, you’re out? Are you alone?” Mrs. Lewis asked patiently.
She did not know Liberty’s number. Mr. and Mrs. Lewis deliberately went to All You Can Eat and jotteddown Liberty’s number from the signboard.
“I’m on the third floor of Gloria Mall with my son. There’s an indoor playground, and Sonny enjoysplaying here. We bumped into Mr. Lewis at the entrance of the mall, so he’s here as well.”
When Mrs. Lewis heard that her son pretended to create the encounter to be involved with Liberty, herface turned grim.
However, she was not angry at Liberty. After suppressing her anger, she said to Liberty, “Liberty, sinceDuncan is there, you can have him look after Sonny. We’ll… find a place to have a talk.”
She finally admitted that her visit was intentional.
Liberty did not reject Mrs. Lewis.
After ending the call, Liberty said to Duncan, “Mr. Lewis, I have something to attend to, so I need totake my leave first. Please help me look after Sonny.”
Duncan was already aware that it was a call from his mother.
The meeting was definitely not going to be pleasant.
“Liberty, let me accompany you to meet my mom.”
“What about Sonny? He just entered the playground and hasn’t had enough fun. Hank wanted to playwith him earlier, but ended up ignoring him and left. He’s upset. If we take him away while he’s enjoyinghimself, he’ll be upset the entire night.”
Liberty could roughly guess why Mrs. Lewis wanted to have a talk with her.
Since Duncan wanted to tag along, she had no choice but to use her son as an excuse.novelbin
At that moment, Duncan was torn.
“Mr. Lewis, please do me this favor. I’ll be back very shortly.”
Liberty left with her key to the e-bike before Duncan could turn her down.
“Liberty.”
Duncan promptly called to stop her and went after her. He said to her, “I have no idea why my mom islooking for you. No matter what my mom is going to tell you, that doesn’t represent my thoughts. Don’ttake it to heart.”
Liberty smiled. “Mrs. Lewis probably asked me out just to have a meal.”
Of course, she knew Mrs. Lewis’s intention was to have a talk with her.
This made her realize that Mrs. Lewis was unable to accept her.
Coincidentally, she wanted Mrs. Lewis to advise Duncan not to pursue her passionately. She was nowat peace with herself and had no interest in relationships.
Helpless, Duncan watched Liberty leave.
He had to accompany Sonny.
After Liberty walked away, he instantly phoned his mother.
Mrs. Lewis felt a little guilty, but she still answered her son’s call.
“Mom, why are you meeting Liberty?”
“Nothing much. I passed by Liberty’s place and suddenly felt like meeting her, so I asked her out for ameal. Why are you nervous? Are you worried that I’ll eat Liberty up?”
Duncan did not believe what his mother said at all.
He said solemnly, “Mom, don’t talk nonsense in front of Liberty. I put a lot of effort into pursuing her. It’sokay if you don’t want to help me, but don’t hold me back.”
Now, he always had to use Sonny as an excuse to stay by Liberty’s side and talk to her.
Liberty used to treat him quite nicely before he confessed his love to her.
Ever since Liberty learned that Duncan liked her, her treatment toward him might appear the same, buthe could sense that she was actually much more indifferent.
