I can\u2019t eat anymore. Ms. Harmon, thank you for the breakfast, but I don\u2019t need it,\u201d he added.<\/div>\n<div>The last thing Duncan wanted was to take Lily to the office.<\/div>\n<div>Lily grinned and said, \u201cI\u2019ll bring it back later. I want to tour your office, Duncan. I didn\u2019t just come to Wiltspoon for this; I\u2019m here to discuss business with a few major corporations too.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>The Harmons operated their business on a large scale.<\/div>\n<div>Mrs. Lewis hoped to form a union with the Harmons, while Lily aimed to penetrate Wiltspoon\u2019s market by establishing connections with major corporations like Lewis &amp; Co. Not only could Lily bring profit to Harmon Corporation, but she could also strengthen her bond with Duncan through their business collaboration.<\/div>\n<div>In her view, although Duncan might seem brusque, he had a sensitive side. Lily believed she could find her happily-ever-after with Duncan if she could win his heart.<\/div>\n<div>Having been immersed in the business world for many years, Lily relished a challenge, and the pursuit of Duncan\u2019s affections intrigued and motivated her greatly.<\/div>\n<div>Since Lily wanted to visit Lewis &amp; Co. under the pretense of a tour, Duncan found it difficult to refuse her. After all, she was the daughter of his mother\u2019s best friend.<\/div>\n<div>Duncan got into his car and pressed the accelerator, driving away quickly.<\/div>\n<div>Lily hurried inside.<\/p>\n<p>In pursuit of his car, Liberty remained unaware of the events unfolding outside the diner. Shortly after Duncan left, the Browns entered the diner in full force. The entire group was present, including Chelsea, her husband, and Lucas. Mrs. Brown had summoned everyone to the city for a trip to the zoo. <\/p>\n<p>Although Lucas was supposed to be in kindergarten, he often fell ill when he was away from his grandparents\u2019 care. Since he was sick again, Chelsea decided to take him out of school for two days to visit his grandparents. <\/p>\n<p>Jessica was not pleased about the large group joining them for the zoo trip. Upon reflection, it seemed the Browns had invited themselves. If the kidnapping plan succeeded, the pressure on Jessica, as the stepmother, would lessen, and the blame would fall on the Browns for not keeping a closer watch on Sonny. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSonny.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Noticing Sonny playing with Legos, Lucas released his mother\u2019s hand, ran over, climbed onto the stool like a monkey, and sat next to Sonny. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat are you playing with, Sonny? I want a turn,\u201d he exclaimed. <\/p>\n<p>The sound of Lucas\u2019s voice prompted Sonny to quickly shove all the scattered Lego pieces back into the box. By the time Lucas took a seat beside him, Sonny had managed to pack everything away. Holding onto the box tightly, Sonny replied, \u201cDunc gave me Lego.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to play with Lego too,\u201d Lucas insisted, extending his hand to reach for Sonny\u2019s bricks. <\/p>\n<p>Sonny leaned away, avoiding Lucas\u2019s grabby hands. He jumped off the stool and took refuge by his mother. Lucas frequently took his toys and teased him, which made Sonny reluctant to play with him. <\/p>\n<p>Although the love and support from his mother and aunt had helped Sonny move past the trauma he experienced at the Reptons\u2019 last year, he had never forgotten about the incident.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"text-chapter-toolbar\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#\"><i class=\"icon ion-md-settings\"><\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 1165 Duncan\u2019s mother had previously mentioned Liberty to Lily.
