Chapter 1606
Derek said, “I also disagree, but what can I do? That’s Duncan’s choice. He has always disregarded our wishes.”
“Do you think Liberty will inform Serenity that I spoke to her?” Mrs. Lewis suddenly inquired.
“Why did you meet with Liberty? Didn’t you say she has no interest in our son? The issue lies with him.”
After a brief silence, Mrs. Lewis responded, “I understand that the problem isn’t with Liberty, but Duncan refuses to heed our advice. He’s very stubborn. I felt I had no choice but to approach Liberty. I wanted to suggest she cancel her tenancy agreement and relocate her breakfast spot to avoid any contact with Duncan.
“In the future, if Duncan visits the Yorks, I’ll tell Liberty to stay away to prevent them from encountering each other.
“It would be ideal if Liberty were willing to leave Wiltspoon and find a place where Duncan is unaware of her presence. I’m prepared to offer her a substantial sum as long as she avoids meeting him.”
Mrs. Lewis had long wanted to take such actions.
However, Liberty had the backing of the Stones and the Yorks.
Given the strong bond between Liberty and Serenity, Serenity would likely interfere.
Once Serenity intervened, the Yorks would become involved, as Zachary indulged his wife.
To this day, Mrs. Lewis couldn’t understand why Old Mrs. York permitted Zachary to marry Serenity.
Additionally, Old Mrs. York was reportedly responsible for arranging Callum and Camryn’s relationship.
This elderly lady certainly had unique taste.
All of her grandsons were exceptional, yet one must question the types of partners she chose for them. Others might even speculate that Old Mrs. York wasn’t the biological grandmother of Zachary and his brothers.
When it came…
All couples from wealthy backgrounds were well-matched when it came to marriage.
“Are you trying to ruin our relationship with the Yorks?” Derek glared at his wife.
Mrs. Lewis replied, “Tell me what to do, then. Frankly, I won’t approve of Liberty and Duncan’s marriage unless I’m dead.”
“It’s too early to say that. Let’s see if your son succeeds in pursuing Liberty,” he suggested.
Mrs. Lewis responded, “It’s wise to separate them before Liberty falls in love with Duncan. Duncan is in an unrequited relationship. He can certainly move on from Liberty as long as she leaves Wiltspoon and never sees him again.
“It’s better for him to remain single than to marry a divorced woman.”
Derek asked his wife, “Do you look down on Liberty because she’s divorced or because of her humble background?”
“Both. Her parents have passed away, and her relatives are awful. I’ve seen them all. The Yorks are good-tempered, so they’re not offended by those dreadful relatives. But I have a short temper,” Mrs. Lewis replied disdainfully.
“In our social circle, there are many wealthy young ladies for Duncan to choose from, yet he only likes Liberty.”
“He may be rough and burly, but he has a good heart. Since his love for Liberty extends to her family as well, he might side with her terrible relatives. They’re like parasites; once they attach themselves to you, it’s nearly impossible to get rid of them. Look at Zachary; he did an excellent job. Those parasites have no chance of depending on him.”
As soon as Mrs. Lewis finished speaking, she suddenly picked up her phone. She jumped to her feet and said, “No way. We can’t just sit back and watch their relationship develop. I’m going to meet Liberty and talk to her now. I only plan to have a conversation; I won’t throw my weight around or try to force her to leave Wiltspoon.”
She simply wanted to talk to Liberty.
Derek quickly called out to his wife to halt her. “You really want to disturb her at this hour, huh?”
“What’s the issue? The sky isn’t completely dark yet. This is the only time Liberty is available.” Mrs. Lewis insisted on speaking with Liberty, despite her husband’s objections.
