“Lewis?”
She believed that a prominent CEO like Duncan shouldn’t be found in a mall. He could simply give a command, and someone would cater to his needs; there was no reason for him to come all this way to shop at a supermarket.
Jessica did not know who Duncan was, but the respect Liberty showed when addressing him, along with a quick glimpse of Duncan’s Porsche car keys, indicated that he was wealthy. Eager to learn more, Jessica eavesdropped on their conversation.
She wondered, ‘How did Liberty come to know such a rich man?’ Did Mrs. Stone introduce them?
Duncan did not recall ever meeting Jessica, but he felt the intensity of her gaze. When he looked over, he saw Jessica twirling her hair and smiling at him, convinced she was showing him her most charming side.
He cast a brief glance her way before redirecting his focus back to Liberty and Sonny.
“I saw you at the entrance of the mall while driving by. It looks like you’ve bought quite a bit. Are you taking these home? Do you need a ride?”
Duncan had a sharp eye and had spotted Liberty and her son from the road.
Liberty was at a loss for words. Why did she always run into Duncan while he was driving whenever she went out? Fortunately, she was standing two hundred meters away from the road; otherwise, her shopping cart might have caused a dent in Duncan’s car parked nearby.
Duncan had been traumatized by Liberty damaging two of his cars, and she often had nightmares about those incidents.
“Thank you, Mr. Lewis, but I’m with Seren. Seren bought these items for her in-laws ahead of their holiday meeting. She went to get her car from the mall’s parking lot and should be here any minute.”
Duncan’s eyes flickered. Was Zachary taking Serenity home for…
Christmas and New Year? Wouldn’t that jeopardize his cover?
