Lily held onto Mrs. Lewis\u2019s arm while juggling several shopping bags.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cAre you heading out, Duncan?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Mrs. Lewis inquired upon encountering her son.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cMom. Ms. Harmon.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Duncan greeted them before adding, \u201cI have an emergency, Mom. Sorry, but I can\u2019t attend to you and Ms. Harmon right now. Would you prefer to wait in my office or head home for the time being?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cWhat\u2019s the emergency?\u201d Mrs. Lewis asked, clearly concerned.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cIt\u2019s an emergency.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Duncan might not always be the sharpest, but he wasn\u2019t going to reveal to his mother that he was skipping work to check on Sonny.<\/div>\n<div>He feared that his mom might misinterpret his relationship with Liberty.<\/div>\n<div>Many people had misunderstood the situation, believing that Duncan had feelings for Liberty.<\/div>\n<div>When he expressed his fondness for Sonny, no one took him seriously; they assumed he was trying to win Sonny\u2019s approval to become his stepdad.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cIs it work-related?\u201d Mrs. Lewis pressed.<\/div>\n<div>Duncan lied, \u201cYes, Mom. I really have to go.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cAlright then, off you go. Be sure to come home for dinner. Lily picked out some clothes for you; you can try them on when you return. If you skip dinner tonight, I\u2019ll send Lily to deliver food to you starting tomorrow.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Mrs. Lewis knew her son well.<\/div>\n<div>Duncan had no romantic interest in Lily, and he certainly didn\u2019t enjoy her daily nagging. Mrs. Lewis had to threaten him to ensure he would come home for dinner.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cAlso, stop spending the night at Zachary\u2019s place. He\u2019s a newlywed and wants to enjoy time with his wife. Your presence makes you a third wheel. Don\u2019t you have a home? Why do you insist on staying at Zachary\u2019s?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cYou need to move back home tonight.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Duncan replied, \u201cZachary and Serenity have been married for six months. They\u2019re past the newlywed stage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPhase.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re intimate, so every day feels like a honeymoon to them. Do you have a problem with that?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Duncan was left speechless. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll talk to Zachary if you don\u2019t move back. Our home could use a makeover anyway. Since we don\u2019t have a place to stay, we can stay at his house. I\u2019ll go wherever you go.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Duncan remained speechless. <\/p>\n<p>His mother was always true to her word. <\/p>\n<p>Lily stayed quiet, knowing it wasn\u2019t her place to intervene while Mrs. Lewis pressured Duncan to return home. <\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Lewis was doing this to give her a chance to bond with Duncan. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cFine, Mom. I\u2019ll be home for dinner,\u201d Duncan finally conceded. \u201cI need to go, Mom.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cGo on,\u201d she replied. <\/p>\n<p>With her threat taking effect, Mrs. Lewis waved her arm generously, allowing her son to attend to his business. <\/p>\n<p>Duncan stepped into the elevator. <\/p>\n<p>Outside the lift, Mrs. Lewis and Lily watched as Duncan entered and the doors closed behind him. <\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Lewis then took strides ahead, with Lily following closely behind. <\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Lewis approached Duncan\u2019s secretary to inquire about the nature of his emergency. <\/p>\n<p>The secretary replied, \u201cMr. Lewis rushed out after receiving a call. I believe something has gone wrong with the XX project, which is currently our most important project. Mr. Lewis personally oversees it.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cOh,\u201d Mrs. Lewis remarked. <\/p>\n<p>Lily asked, \u201cYou\u2019re Duncan\u2019s secretary. Why didn\u2019t you go with him?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>The secretary answered, \u201cMy colleague, another secretary, is waiting for Mr. Lewis there. She handles the project alongside him, so I wouldn\u2019t be much help even if I went.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Lily responded, \u201cOh, so Duncan has two secretaries?\u201d<\/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 1179 The duo must have just returned from a shopping trip.
