“You b*stard. Are you trying to irritate me?”
Lily, unmarried and without children, wondered how she could produce a child comparable to Sonny.
Mrs. Lewis was furious with her son.
Duncan, however, was not upset by her reprimand. “You asked me to differentiate, and that was my honest opinion. The main reason is that I’m quite fond of Sonny.”
As he spent more time with Liberty, he hoped to gradually gain acceptance from both her and Sonny.
How wonderful it would be to create a family of three.
“I’ve never seen anyone so eager to be a stepdad!”
Mrs. Lewis continued to criticize her son.
Deciding not to engage further, she quickly ended the call.
She worried that if she continued the conversation, she might strangle him.
“That b*stard really infuriated me. What an ungrateful son. He can’t wait to be a stepdad, even though that child doesn’t belong to him. Doesn’t Sonny have a father? His biological father is still alive.”
After hanging up, Mrs. Lewis vented her frustrations about her son to her husband.
She even thought it might be beneficial to have a heart-to-heart conversation with Liberty.
Duncan wouldn’t heed her advice. Every time she tried to discuss Liberty with him, they ended up in an argument, straining their relationship.
It would be much simpler to deal with Liberty.
Moreover, Liberty seemed uninterested in Duncan; she likely wanted to distance herself from him.
Despite Duncan’s many qualities, Liberty showed no interest!
Her standards were exceptionally high.
Mrs. Lewis was filled with conflicting emotions.
If Liberty fell for Duncan, Mrs. Lewis would find fault with her. Now that Liberty had no feelings for him and rejected his affection, Mrs. Lewis felt frustrated.
Lewis believed that Liberty’s standards were excessively high. Although Duncan was an exceptional and wealthy man, Liberty, a divorced woman, showed no interest in him.
