Chapter 1236<\/div>\n
Rather than going out, Mrs. Lewis chose to stay at home and waited for Lily\u2019s return. She was eager to find out if Duncan had eaten the breakfast that Lily delivered.<\/div>\n
Upon hearing the sound of an approaching vehicle, Mrs. Lewis stepped outside.<\/div>\n
\u201cMrs. Lewis.\u201d<\/div>\n
Lily exited the car and approached Mrs. Lewis, carrying empty food containers.<\/div>\n
From the smile on Lily\u2019s face, Mrs. Lewis could tell that her son had enjoyed Lily\u2019s homemade breakfast.<\/div>\n
The two women walked back into the house, chatting and laughing.<\/div>\n
Lily handed the food containers to the maid and assisted Mrs. Lewis in sitting down on the sofa.<\/div>\n
\u201cWhy didn\u2019t you stay longer at Duncan\u2019s office?\u201d<\/div>\n
\u201cDuncan has a meeting coming up, and I didn\u2019t want to take up too much of his time. I told him that you asked me to deliver the breakfast, and he ate it all. He even asked if you had a new chef, as he thinks highly of my cooking.\u201d<\/div>\n
Mrs. Lewis beamed with delight, as if she were envisioning Lily as her future daughter-in-law.<\/div>\n
\u201cYou should deliver packed breakfasts to Duncan more often. See if he needs anything else. With everything you do for him, he\u2019ll be smitten with you in no time. I can\u2019t wait for you to become part of the family.\u201d<\/div>\n
Lily pulled out her phone, opened her photo album, and pointed to a picture of Jessica, asking, \u201cWho is this woman, Mrs. Lewis? Do you know her? She seems to know Duncan; I saw them talking.\u201d<\/div>\n
\u201cThe All You Can Eat diner is owned by Liberty. Duncan was planning to have his breakfast there, but Liberty was away for personal reasons, and her diner was closed today. He only ate my breakfast because he left for work on an empty stomach.\u201d<\/div>\n
Otherwise, he wouldn\u2019t have eaten her food.<\/div>\n
Lily initially felt confident and did not view Liberty as a threat.<\/div>\n
Mrs. Lewis had warned her that the person to watch was\u2026<\/p>\n

Liberty. Lily had assumed Duncan would be too blind to fall for a chubby divorcee like Liberty, who came with so much extra baggage. However, she was now starting to think Mrs. Lewis had a valid point. <\/p>\n

Duncan enjoyed having breakfast at Liberty\u2019s diner, and over time, something might develop between them. <\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know this woman; I\u2019ve never seen her before. I\u2019ll look her up to find out who she is and how she knows Duncan. She seemed to be leaving in a hurry. Duncan must have confronted her about something. If I were you, I wouldn\u2019t worry about her,\u201d Mrs. Lewis remarked.<\/p>\n

Mrs. Lewis, being older and a mother figure to Duncan, was a better judge of character than Lily. It didn\u2019t take long for her to recognize Jessica in the photo before dismissing her. <\/p>\n

\u201cIs this the street Duncan drives by on his way to the office? If I\u2019m correct, Duncan owns half of that street. He purchased the commercial properties there and left the management to his butler, who collects the rent.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cLiberty once worked at Duncan\u2019s company. She quit after her divorce, and I didn\u2019t keep track of what she did afterward. I can\u2019t believe she rented a space from Duncan to open a diner.\u201d <\/p>\n

Mrs. Lewis frowned and added, \u201cI wonder if Duncan collects rent from her. I should ask him.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cI told you to keep an eye on Liberty. She is the one you should consider a rival. Out of all the places she could have chosen to start her business, Liberty decided to set up on that street\u2014right on Duncan\u2019s route to work. <\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s obvious what her intentions are. I bet she wants to marry into a wealthy family, especially since her sister managed to do so. But she should take a good look in the mirror. She\u2019s overweight, divorced, and has a son from her previous marriage. She should count herself lucky if she finds another man. How dare she set her sights on my son?\u201d<\/p>\n

Mrs. Lewis directed all her blame toward Liberty. \u201cMrs. Lewis, I believe Liberty isn\u2019t currently focused on Duncan. Let\u2019s not hastily categorize her as a gold digger. Didn\u2019t Serenity marry Mr. York without knowing his true identity? She almost had a serious conflict with him when the truth came to light.\u201d<\/p>\n
