her. As her landlord and a friend, I want to support her. Unfortunately, her ex-husband continues to bother her. They’ve known each other for over a decade and share a son. There’s a chance they might remarry to provide their child with a complete family.”
Duncan remained quiet.
He visited Liberty at noon but didn’t enter since she was having lunch. He didn’t want to interrupt the mother and son.
Additionally, he worried that Liberty might become suspicious if he visited too frequently.
Zachary advised him to hold off on confessing his feelings, suggesting he wait until Liberty’s career was more stable before pursuing her. This approach would increase his chances of success.
When they returned to Duncan’s office, Mrs. Lewis continued to pressure her son, urging him to move on from Liberty.
After all, they were not officially together; his feelings for her were unreciprocated. Mrs. Lewis believed it would be easy to convince her son to let go of Liberty at this stage.
Duncan, however, paid little attention to his mother’s remarks. He felt he had made his position clear and focused on his paperwork while she continued to nag him.
Suddenly, his phone beeped with a new message.
Duncan picked it up and checked the notification.
It was from Josh.
“[Duncan, let’s have dinner together. Call a driver. We’re drinking tonight to celebrate the end of my bachelorhood.]”
Duncan responded, “[Congratulations! Do you want to plan anything else besides dinner and drinks? Perhaps a nightclub visit?]”
Josh replied almost instantly, “[I’m married now, so no need for a nightclub. But you’re still single, so it wouldn’t hurt for you to go. Just a warning: don’t get me into trouble! I’ll throw a punch if my wife misunderstands anything.]”
Duncan chuckled. “[I was just joking.]”
Sure! Let’s have dinner together. We won’t go home until we’re drunk. Ugh, among the three of us, I’m the only one still single.
