I\u2019ll instruct him to keep a record.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Liberty nodded and explained, \u201cI transferred the amount last month, but the card linked to my account reached its limit this month, so I had to withdraw cash using my bankbook.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>The bank card associated with her Apple Pay account was designated for everyday expenses, while she kept most of her money in a different account.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cDo you need help with anything else?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Liberty quickly replied, \u201cEverything is set. We\u2019re just waiting to open.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cHave you distributed flyers?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Liberty smiled. \u201cThere\u2019s no need for that. The store has been under renovation for a long time, so everyone passing by has seen it. Now that my signboard is up, everyone can see what business I\u2019m running.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Her target market was the employees of nearby companies and factories. It would be challenging to attract workers from farther away, even if she wanted to.<\/div>\n<div>Competition was fierce, as many breakfast diners operated on this street.<\/div>\n<div>She hoped to make a living here.<\/div>\n<div>All her hopes were pinned on this store.<\/div>\n<div>Duncan remained silent.<\/div>\n<div>After wandering around the store, he considered sitting down but noticed Grandma May\u2019s persistent gaze on him. He felt guilty. Although he wasn\u2019t doing anything wrong, he couldn\u2019t shake the feeling of discomfort.<\/div>\n<p>Did she feel guilty when she looked at him like that?<br \/>\n\u201cGo ahead. I\u2019ll leave now, but I\u2019ll come by to support you on opening day.\u201d<br \/>\nDuncan dared not stay long, worried about Grandma May\u2019s penetrating gaze that seemed to see right through him.<br \/>\nIt was no surprise that someone as strong as Zachary was compelled to marry.<br \/>\nGrandma May was truly a force to be reckoned with.<br \/>\nThis thought reminded Duncan of his own grandmother. If she were still alive, perhaps he would be married too.<br \/>\nThe only difference between him and Zachary was that his friend still had his nana.<br \/>\n\u201cYou\u2019re a busy man, Mr. Lewis. Just let me know what you\u2019d like for breakfast, and I\u2019ll prepare it for you. You can stop by and pick it up when you\u2019re passing through. There\u2019s no need for you to wait around and waste your time.\u201d<br \/>\nThere was also no reason for a high-powered CEO like him to eat breakfast in her small diner.<br \/>\nLiberty felt that someone like Duncan should enjoy breakfast in a place like Wiltspoon Hotel, not in her modest establishment.<br \/>\n\u201cIt\u2019s fine.\u201d<br \/>\nDuncan simply wanted to show his support for Liberty.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 969 Grandma May was relieved that Duncan was not her grandson.
