Chapter 276
Liberty instinctively reacted.
She didn’t overanalyze the situation.

Duncan smiled. “Let’s discuss the repairs.”
This threw Liberty into a panic.
She had limited savings remaining. Given the extent of the damages this time, the repairs would likely be significantly more expensive. She would have to empty her bank account to pay Duncan and endure Hank’s ridicule for being inept.

“Where do you live?”
“Bright Boulevard.”
“That’s a desirable area. You made a wise choice and bought the place quickly.”

“My husband purchased the house before we got married. He’s still paying the mortgage. Mr. Lewis, how much will the repairs cost? Um… It’s not that I want to shift the responsibility or refuse to pay; I’m a housewife without any income. I don’t have much savings left and probably won’t be able to cover the full cost. Can I pay in installments?” Liberty asked tentatively. “I’m currently looking for a job, and I promise to pay everything I owe once I have a job and a steady income.”
From behind the wheel, Duncan replied, “There’s no need to be anxious. I’m not expecting you to pay this time. I only asked you to cover the scratch as a reminder to be cautious on the road. It would be unfortunate if you ran your stroller into someone else. Remember, your son is in this car.”
