Chapter 982
“You can talk to me about it, Nana. No need to look for Duncan.”
“I don’t need you. Stop with the questions. Hurry up and give me Duncan’s number.”
Zachary skeptically gave his best friend’s number to his nana. At the end of it, he persistently asked,“What happened, Nana? Why do you need to talk to Duncan?”
“It’s none of your business. Go back to work.”
Grandma May immediately hung up on her darling grandson after getting Duncan’s number.
Over on the other side, Zachary was speechless.
Could he not be a little nosy to ask about it?
Grandma May dialed Duncan’s number and spoke in an anxious tone when Duncan picked up, “It’sbad, Duncan! It’s bad! Those absurd people are out to get Liberty again. It’s Liberty’s ex–mother–in–law and sister–in–law. They’re jealous that Liberty set up a diner. They want Liberty to transfer theownership of the restaurant to them. Liberty can’t face those two women alone. She’s no longer thetwo–hundred–pound woman she was.
“I’m only an old lady. There’s only so much I can help with. I couldn’t scare them away by lying on theground. I can only call you for help. Your office is the nearest to here. You can send a few securityguards over.”
Without giving Duncan a chance to speak, Grandma May terminated the call.
“I’ll know what you’re after if you come here in person, but I could be wrong about you if you send yoursecurity guards instead.”
Clenching onto her phone, Grandma May exited the loo.
There was no telling what the Brown mother and daughter said because Liberty appeared furious andwas chasing them out.
Grandma May nearly went to drag Mrs. Brown and Chelsea back.
How was Duncan supposed to play the hero without the Browns around?
Luckily, Grandma May could count on Mrs. Brown and Chelsea to stick around. They refused to leavelike that.
“Liberty, Chelsea is in a tough spot. Hank doesn’t have a lot of money since the wedding is coming up.It’s not like you spend a lot on yourself and Sonny. You have your sister to help you anyway. You havethe money to lend Chelsea two hundred thousand dollars to start a business. Don’t worry. It’s just aloan. She’ll return the money. We’re family after all.”
The real reason Mrs. Brown and Chelsea were here was to get money from Liberty for George to starta business.novelbin
With a straight face, Liberty clicked her tongue. “Don’t play the family card with me. My mom only gavebirth to me and Seren. We’re unrelated. You should leave before I grab the broom.”
Liberty should let her relatives deal with her former in–laws. It would be a battle between the nasties.
“No matter what, I’m Sonny’s aunt. Can’t you look upon Sonny’s sake…”
“You’re Sonny’s aunt, not mine. Sonny is living off his mother now, so using his name won’t get youanywhere. Get out of here. Stop coming over to harass me.”
Chelsea scowled. “You can either lend me the money or give me a job. Otherwise, I’m not leaving. Youcan’t make me go!”
She then walked to a table and took a seat.
Liberty was annoyed. The nerve of these people!
Grandma May watched without making a sound.
Liberty removed Hank from her list of blocked contacts and gave Hank a call. She waited until hepicked up before callously uttering, “Hank, hurry up and take your mom and sister away. They camehere to talk ill about you and Jessica again. I’m getting sick and tired of listening to them.”
Hank was at a loss for words. Did his mother and sister not go to Liberty to ask for money?
How did it turn into badmouthing him and Jessica?
