Liberty thanked Zachary

Zachary said, “We’re family, Liberty. You don’t have to be so courteous.”

He even feared that she would not accept his help.

Luckily, she was rushing to move places and took up his offer.

With her brother–in–law’s assistance, Liberty moved out of her apartment quickly while Zachary leftwork to accompany Duncan for drinks.

Aside from Zachary and Serenity, no one knew Liberty’s new address. She did not inform Aunt Audreyeither.

Meanwhile, in a hotel’s private room, a table was filled with dishes Duncan ordered along with manybottles of strong liquor.

At that moment, Zachary and Josh were by his side, watching him down one glass of alcohol afteranother.

“Eat something, Duncan.”

Zachary took some salad for him. Maybe he felt guilty toward his best friend because he had taken hissister–in–law’s side.

He wished he could help Duncan, but his sister–in–law did not love Duncan at all. Moreover, Mrs.Lewis was stubborn in opposing the relationship.

Zachary had no choice but to respect Liberty’s choice.

“Have some soup too, Duncan. You kept drinking since you came You’ll get drunk easily on an emptystomach. Don’t drink too much as well. Zachary and I will have to take responsibility if you get alcoholpoisoning.”

Josh scooped a bowl of soup for Duncan as he persuaded him to drink less.

“I feel annoyed.”

Duncan took a fork and ate the salad in his bowl. It was the salad Zachary served him.

After two bites of it, he downed another glass of alcohol. It was strong, yet he downed it like it was plainwater.

When he lowered his glass and was about to refill it, Zachary stopped him.

“Stop drinking, Duncan. You’ve drunk many glasses. It may feel like nothing now, but the aftereffects ofit are strong. You’ll get drunk soon.”

“I envy you, Zachary.”

Duncan patted Zachary’s shoulder. “I’m really envious of you and Josh. You guys are living better thanme”

After a moment of silence, Zachary said to him, “Duncan, my sister–in–law doesn’t wish to have a

relationship with you. She doesn’t have the intention of getting married again now. Just give up. If youcontinue, you’ll be the one getting hurt.”

Josh advised Duncan, “That’s right. From what I see, Liberty truly doesn’t have the thought of gettingmarried again. Your wooing makes her feel troubled, and Mrs. Lewis opposes the relationship. Evenyour family, the most important people to you, isn’t supportive of this. You should give up.”

Duncan glanced at Zachary and Josh. He said, “How long have I been wooing Liberty? If it has beeneight to ten years and Liberty still hasn’t accepted me, it’s understandable that you guys are talking meout of it.

“But you two are asking me to give up when I’ve just started. Yes, I know it’ll be a tough journey. but I’llcontinue no matter how hard it is. My mom will compromise sooner or later. As for Liberty, I believe thatperseverance brings success. She’ll accept me one day.”

Zachary watched Duncan. He felt guilty.

Duncan talked to his friends for a long time. After he got drunk, Josh sent him home while Zacharyattended an event.

After the event, Zachary returned home and lay on the bed with his wife in his arms. He did not sayanything for a long time.

“What’s wrong?” Serenity asked out of concern.novelbin

“Has Liberty settled down in the new place?”

“She’s all settled with the help of the people you sent over.”

Zachary buried his face in the side of Serenity’s neck. He rasped, “Seren, I feel guilty toward Duncan. Ithink he’ll find me and ask me about it tomorrow. How do you think I should reply?”

“Isn’t Mr. Lewis drunk? If he is, he’ll have a headache when he wakes up tomorrow. He probably won’tlook for my sister.”

Serenity hugged her husband. She knew he was in a difficult spot.

“He’ll find me sooner or later. Ah, I don’t know when it’ll end between them. Be it good or bad, we won’thave to be in a dilemma if everything ends.”
