Chapter 1066
His mother wanted him to come home so he and Lily had a chance to cultivate a relationship.
Duncan did not have a bad impression of Lily, but he did not like her either.
“What’s inconvenient about that? You drive to work anyway, and no one will say anything even if you’re late since
you’re the boss. There’s a guest at home now, so you have to stay home for a few days.”
“Mom, I’m tired after being out and about today. I’m driving now so it’s not convenient for me to talk to you. I’ll
hang up now.”
Duncan did not directly reject his mother’s request and found an excuse to hang up the phone.
After the call ended, Mrs. Lewis said helplessly to her husband, “I’m afraid your youngest son will be single for the
rest of his life. Lily is a great girl who doesn’t mind his scarred face, but he’s not even willing to spend some time
with her.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMr. Lewis said faintly. “You’re too hasty and obvious in your motive. You’ve arranged several blind dates for Duncan,
and he has developed an aversion to blind dates. He doesn’t like to be controlled by us.
“Just leave him be. If he’s destined to remain single, it’s useless even if you arrange hundreds of blind dates for
him. If he’s destined to meet someone, then he’ll meet that person and fall in love without you meddling
“Whatever will be, will be ”
Mrs. Lewis twisted her husband’s arm in anger and scolded him, “It’s because of a father like you that your son is
still a bachelor at the age of thirty-six!”
Mr. Lewis did not get angry at being scolded “The younger generation will do all right on their own. What’s the point
of agonizing over them? I’m not worried about them. They all have their own destiny. Let nature take its course.”
After saying that, he pulled up the quilt to cover his head lest his wife pinched him again.
The night passed without a word.
The next day was the opening day of All You Can Eat.
Serenity and Mrs. Lane arrived at the store early in the morning, where Liberty had already started working
“Liberty, is the ribbon for the ribbon-cutting ceremony ready?”
Having a ribbon-cutting ceremony was an important ritual before opening a new store.
Yes, Serenity admitted that they were slightly superstitious. There was also a ribbon-cutting ceremony when she
first opened the bookstore with Jasmine.
“Everything is ready.”
Liberty had gotten up at three in the morning to work.
She was in good spirits now.
People would be in high spirits being involved in happy events.
This was her first time opening a store.
Serenity helped her sister set up the ribbon for the opening ceremony later.
Zachary, who accompanied her, could not help because he had no experience in such a thing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe could only sit aside and help his sister-in-law take care of Sonny.
Sonny was still asleep, but Liberty did not dare leave him alone in the rented apartment. She carried her son on her
back and came over at three o’clock.
When the ribbon-cutting ceremony was done, they popped the confetti.
“I can’t believe I’m late.”
Duncan sent several flower stands over. When he saw the confetti on the ground, he helped Liberty arrange the
flower stands and said with a smile, 1 set an alarm, but I was still late.”
“Liberty came over in the wee hours to start preparing, but you only arrived after dawn. Of course you’re too late.”
Zachary as a matter of factly handed over the still-asleep Sonny to Duncan. He had been holding Sonny for more
than an hour, so it was time to let Duncan hold him.
Duncan carried Sonny. “He didn’t wake up when they popped the confetti?”
“He’s sleeping deeply after exhausting himself from too much fun yesterday.”
Liberty welcomed Duncan into the store and wanted to carry her son, but Duncan said, “Don’t you need to cook
breakfast for me? I’m your first customer, right? Let me hold Sonny. I want to carry him. The only time I can carry
him is when he’s asleep.”
