Married at First Sight Chapter 1677

After observing Duncan’s feelings, they decided to support him, but Liberty remained uninterested in remarrying. Although Duncan had no romantic feelings for anyone, Mrs. Lewis was fiercely opposed to their potential relationship, leading Zachary to consider persuading Duncan to let go.

Zachary believed that even if Liberty agreed to Duncan’s advances, achieving happiness would be challenging due to Mrs. Lewis’s role as a mother-in-law. He found himself in a difficult position, torn between his closest friend and his sister. While he felt compelled to convince Duncan to move on, his friend interpreted this as a lack of support. As a result, Zachary felt as though he was pushing Liberty into a dangerous situation.

He viewed the relationship between himself and Serenity as less complicated than that of Liberty and Duncan. Duncan realized his feelings for Liberty after she experienced an accident. Now that Liberty had recovered, only two or three months had passed, leaving Duncan with limited time to pursue her.

Unfortunately, before he could express his feelings, he was involved in a car accident due to a conflict with his mother. Both Zachary and Josh were pessimistic about Duncan and Liberty’s future, believing that the difficulties they faced were greater than before. Given Duncan’s injury and his personality, there was a high likelihood he would distance himself from Liberty.

This could leave them both with a lifetime of regret, as their relationship might never develop. “We understand that Liberty doesn’t love Duncan; she only sees him as a friend. Your aunt’s opposition to Duncan stems from this, as the issue lies with him,” Mr. Lewis sighed.

Liberty did not have feelings for Duncan; he was the one pursuing her. Although Duncan was a good person, the scar on his face made him appear intimidating, which deterred many girls.

He was often feared and avoided, as many perceived him to be violent. Those who did attempt to communicate with him typically did so because of Duncan’s wealth and status.

Lily, however, seemed to be the most genuine. The Harmon and Lewis families were closely intertwined, and Lily didn’t mind the intimidating scar on Duncan’s face. Unfortunately, they had no romantic relationship. Now, Lily had moved on from Duncan and limited their interactions to business.

Mr. Lewis sighed again, saying, “Once Duncan recovers, if he wishes to pursue Liberty, his mother and I will never stand in his way. As long as our son is happy, he can choose his own path.”

It was a minor issue.

Zachary and Josh exchanged glances and could only offer a few words of comfort.

That night, Duncan awoke.

When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the white ceiling of the hospital room.

He attempted to move, but pain coursed through his body, particularly in his legs, where the agony was intense and overwhelming.

The pain made him break out in a cold sweat.

“Duncan, you’re awake,” someone said.

As he shifted, Mrs. Lewis, who had been watching over him, noticed and stood up in surprise. “Duncan is awake! Call the doctor!” she urged her husband.

“Duncan,” Mrs. Lewis said, moving closer to examine his pale face, her eyes filled with tears once more.

Duncan remained still and struggled to look around the room. Besides his family and friends, he noticed Liberty and Sonny among the crowd.

Liberty held Sonny tightly, who, feeling tired, rested his head on his mother’s shoulder.

Mrs. Lewis’s shout must have startled Sonny, as he opened his eyes, lifted his head, and turned to gaze at Duncan in the hospital bed.

Their eyes met.

Sonny made an effort to climb off the ground.
