Despite his usual slowness in recognizing his feelings, he gradually realized that he had developed deeper emotions for Liberty.<\/div>\n<div>Why did he like her?<\/div>\n<div>He couldn\u2019t say.<\/div>\n<div>No wonder his friends often viewed him and Liberty as a couple; outsiders often have clearer perspectives.<\/div>\n<div>Duncan remained unmoved even when faced with the impressive Lily. Instead, he felt an urge to escape. It wasn\u2019t that Lily wasn\u2019t good enough; it was that he had unknowingly given his heart to Liberty.<\/div>\n<div>When Chelsea, her husband, and her parents arrived at the hospital, they found Duncan waiting outside the ward.<\/div>\n<div>Upon hearing footsteps, Duncan turned around. When he saw Chelsea and her husband, his expression darkened, and he regarded the Browns with coldness.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cWhat are you doing here?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Chelsea couldn\u2019t help but ask Duncan.<\/div>\n<div>Duncan replied icily, \u201cWhat business is it of yours that I\u2019m here?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Chelsea was taken aback.<\/div>\n<div>Now that Liberty was free and had lost some weight, it was natural for her to attract admirers.<\/div>\n<div>Duncan had always treated Liberty kindly.<\/div>\n<div>The Browns believed that Duncan was exceptionally attentive to Sonny because he harbored inappropriate feelings for Liberty.<\/div>\n<div>At the time, since Liberty hadn\u2019t slimmed down, the Browns reassured themselves that Duncan wouldn\u2019t be interested in her. After all, he was a CEO worth tens of billions, while she was a divorced woman with a three-year-old son.<\/div>\n<div>However, seeing Duncan waiting outside the ward now, the Browns could no longer deceive themselves. He genuinely cared for Liberty.<\/div>\n<div>Otherwise, he wouldn\u2019t have been there.<\/div>\n<p>She should not be guarding her ward late at night. The Browns felt a mix of confusion and concern. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s late. Why are you here instead of sleeping?\u201d Duncan asked Chelsea coldly. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI came to see my sister-in-\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMrs. Repton, have you forgotten that Liberty and your brother are divorced? She\u2019s no longer your sister-in-law, so please refrain from calling her that. She doesn\u2019t want to hear you use that term either.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Chelsea was at a loss for words. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cChelsea.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Brown gently pulled her daughter aside, reminding her not to argue with Duncan; it would be futile. <\/p>\n<p>Duncan was correct. Liberty and Hank had been divorced for a long time, and Hank had since remarried. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow is Liberty? Why isn\u2019t Serenity watching over her sister? Why are you here instead?\u201d Chelsea asked, still unhappy and unwilling to see Duncan in charge of Liberty\u2019s care. <\/p>\n<p>Jessica was a ruthless woman, and Chelsea was determined to persuade her brother to divorce Jessica so he could remarry Liberty. <\/p>\n<p>Now, Liberty had a new admirer. Although Duncan\u2019s face was scarred, he came from a strong family background and had certain advantages over Hank. Chelsea felt disheartened, believing there was no hope left for her brother to remarry Liberty.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 1404 Duncan was surprised to discover how much he cared for Liberty.
