Chapter 1039<\/div>\n
Duncan was aware that Liberty no longer required his assistance; she now had the support of the Stone and York families.<\/div>\n
After a brief pause, he stated, \u201cAnyway, go ahead and do your thing. I\u2019ll head back before my mother calls to urge me again.\u201d<\/div>\n
\u201cAlright. Drive safely, Mr. Lewis.\u201d<\/div>\n
Liberty escorted Duncan out of her shop.<\/div>\n
As Duncan glanced at Hank\u2019s car, he asked Liberty, \u201cThat belongs to your ex-husband, right?\u201d<\/div>\n
\u201cI saw him get out of it. It\u2019s probably his new car.\u201d<\/div>\n
Hank had replaced both his wife and his car.<\/div>\n
If Zachary hadn\u2019t punished Hank, he would have been living quite comfortably, enjoying money, a new wife, and a new car\u2026<\/div>\n
Duncan felt a temptation to damage Hank\u2019s tires, but he reconsidered, realizing that if Hank couldn\u2019t drive away, he would likely end up staying at Liberty\u2019s diner to eat. So, Duncan abandoned the idea.<\/div>\n
\u201cIn the future, if that family tries to harass you again, just give me a call. I\u2019ll send someone to help since I work nearby. All the business owners here rent their stores from me, and I\u2019m just looking out for my tenants,\u201d<\/div>\n
Duncan said candidly, as though he had no ulterior motives and was solely concerned for his renters\u2019 well-being.<\/div>\n
Liberty smiled, replying, \u201cThank you, Mr. Lewis. Since the last time you brought your people to help me chase off Mrs. Brown and her daughter, I haven\u2019t seen them around for a few days.\u201d<\/div>\n
Hank had likely sent his troublesome older sister back home as well.<\/div>\n
Liberty waved goodbye as Duncan got into his car and quickly drove away.<\/div>\n
Upon returning to the Lewis family residence, Duncan noticed an unfamiliar car parked outside his home. As he exited his vehicle, he inquired with the employee who came out to greet him.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhose car is that?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s Ms. Harmon\u2019s car,\u201d came the reply.<\/p>\n

\u201cMs. Harmon?\u201d <\/p>\n

Duncan frowned. Did his family know anyone with the surname Harmon? \u201cShe\u2019s the daughter of a friend of Madam\u2019s. She came over from Bellville and is in Wiltspoon for some business. After Madam found out, she eagerly invited her to stay.\u201d<\/p>\n

The employee\u2019s explanation put Duncan on high alert. Was his mother trying to play matchmaker again?<\/p>\n

As long as the young woman came from a wealthy family, his mother would find ways to bring them together. Duncan said nothing more and strode into the main building.<\/p>\n

Upon entering, he heard his mother\u2019s cheerful laughter.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuncan\u2019s back!\u201d<\/p>\n

Mrs. Lewis was laughing loudly, clearly entertained by Lily Harmon. Spotting her son, she waved him over. As he approached, Lily Harmon stood up and greeted him with a smile, \u201cHi, Duncan. It\u2019s been a while.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHave we met before\u2026?\u201d Duncan asked.<\/p>\n

Lily smiled back, \u201cWe met once twenty years ago. You might not remember.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lily\u2019s mother was an old friend and classmate of Mrs. Lewis. After their marriages, the two women rarely saw each other but stayed in touch.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t remember things from twenty years ago,\u201d Duncan replied. He was only sixteen then, right in the middle of his rebellious phase.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuncan, this is Fran\u2019s daughter, Lily. Don\u2019t you remember?\u201d Mrs. Lewis explained.<\/p>\n

Duncan nodded, though he had little memory of Mrs. Harmon, let alone her daughter.<\/p>\n

They had met just once twenty years ago. How old had Lily been at that time?<\/p>\n

How could he possibly recall a little girl from so long ago? <\/p>\n

\u201cLily\u2019s in<\/p>\n

\u201cWiltspoon is buzzing with business. When I heard Fran mention it, I asked Lily to come over and have some fun. Since she\u2019s not familiar with the area, you should take her sightseeing tomorrow to help her get acquainted with Wiltspoon,\u201d <\/p>\n

Chapter 1039<\/p>\n

Duncan recognized that Liberty didn\u2019t require his assistance; the Stone and York families were already supporting her. <\/p>\n

After a brief silence, he remarked, \u201cAnyway, go ahead and take care of your business. I should head back before my mother calls to urge me again.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cAlright. Drive safely, Mr. Lewis,\u201d Liberty replied as she escorted Duncan out of her shop. <\/p>\n

Duncan glanced at Hank\u2019s car and asked Liberty, \u201cThat belongs to your ex-husband, right?\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cI saw him get out of it. It\u2019s probably his new vehicle,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n

Hank had changed both his spouse and his car. <\/p>\n

If Zachary hadn\u2019t punished Hank, he would likely be living quite comfortably with money, a new wife, and a new car. <\/p>\n

Duncan felt an urge to walk over and puncture Hank\u2019s tires, but then he realized that if he did, Hank would be stuck at Liberty\u2019s diner, eating while awaiting a fix. Duncan dismissed the thought. <\/p>\n

\u201cIn the future, if that family tries to harass you again, just give me a call. I can send someone to assist you since I work nearby. All the business owners here rent from me, so I\u2019m just looking out for my tenants,\u201d Duncan stated plainly, as if he had no ulterior motive and was solely concerned for his renters\u2019 welfare. <\/p>\n

Liberty smiled and responded, \u201cThank you, Mr. Lewis. Since the last time you brought your team to help me chase off Mrs. Brown and her daughter, they haven\u2019t shown up in the past few days.\u201d <\/p>\n

Hank had probably sent that troublesome older sister of his home too. <\/p>\n

Liberty waved goodbye to Duncan as he got into his car.<\/p>\n

quickly drove away. When he returned to the Lewis family residence, Duncan noticed an unfamiliar car parked outside. As he stepped out of his vehicle, he asked the employee who greeted him, \u201cWhose car is that?\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s Ms. Harmon\u2019s car.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cMs. Harmon?\u201d Duncan frowned. Was there anyone named Harmon among his family\u2019s acquaintances? \u201cShe\u2019s the daughter of a friend of Madam\u2019s. She came over from Bellville and is in Wiltspoon for some business. Once Madam found out, she eagerly invited her to stay.\u201d <\/p>\n

The employee\u2019s explanation put Duncan on guard. His mother was trying to set him up again, wasn\u2019t she? As long as a young woman came from a wealthy family, she would find a way to arrange a meeting. Duncan didn\u2019t say anything further and strode into the main building. <\/p>\n

Upon entering, he heard his mother\u2019s delighted laughter. <\/p>\n

\u201cDuncan\u2019s back.\u201d <\/p>\n

Mrs. Lewis was laughing heartily, clearly entertained by Lily Harmon. When she saw her son, she waved him over. As Duncan approached, Lily Harmon stood up and greeted him with a smile, \u201cHi, Duncan. It\u2019s been a while.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cHave we met before\u2026?\u201d Duncan inquired. <\/p>\n

Lily replied, still smiling, \u201cWe met once twenty years ago. You might not remember.\u201d <\/p>\n

Lily was the daughter of Mrs. Lewis\u2019s old friend and classmate. After getting married, the two women rarely saw each other, but they maintained contact. <\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t recall things from twenty years ago.\u201d He had been only sixteen at the time, right in the midst of his rebellious phase. <\/p>\n

\u201cDuncan, this is Fran\u2019s daughter, Lily. Don\u2019t you remember?\u201d Mrs. Lewis explained. <\/p>\n

Duncan nodded in acknowledgment. He didn\u2019t have much recollection of Mrs. Harmon.<\/p>\n

Harmon, let alone her daughter. They met only once two decades ago. How old was Lily back then? How could he possibly remember a young girl from so long ago? \u201cLily is in Wiltspoon for some business. When I heard Fran mention it, I invited Lily to come over and have some fun. Since she\u2019s not familiar with the area, could you take her sightseeing tomorrow to help her get acquainted with Wiltspoon?\u201d<\/p>\n
