Chapter 1543<\/div>\n
\u201cDid you not sleep well last night?\u201d Duncan asked his friend, expressing concern.<\/div>\n
He noticed Zachary coming downstairs with a tense expression and watched as Zachary settled onto the single-seated sofa.<\/div>\n
\u201cDidn\u2019t you get drunk last night?\u201d Zachary retorted.<\/div>\n
Duncan smiled and replied, \u201cI only had two glasses. I didn\u2019t get drunk.\u201d<\/div>\n
After a brief pause, he added, \u201cYou all have someone to look after you when you\u2019re drunk. I\u2019m single\u2014I have no one to care for me if I get wasted, so I didn\u2019t want to drink too much.\u201d<\/div>\n
Zachary scoffed. \u201cMs. Harmon would have been more than willing to take care of you.\u201d<\/div>\n
At the mention of Lily, Duncan\u2019s smile faded.<\/div>\n
\u201cNothing is going to happen between Lily and me. She has moved out of my house.\u201d<\/div>\n
Lily was preparing to leave Wiltspoon.<\/div>\n
The partnerships she had been negotiating were mostly settled.<\/div>\n
When Mrs. Lewis started pushing harder for Lily and Duncan to get together, Lily honestly explained that she hadn\u2019t been pursuing Duncan lately. His focus was elsewhere, and she didn\u2019t want to waste any more effort.<\/div>\n
Her time in Wiltspoon had been productive. It was time for her to return home.<\/div>\n
\u201cYour mom doesn\u2019t think so. You\u2019re here early for my sister-in-law, right? She said she has no feelings for you.\u201d<\/div>\n
Duncan replied patiently, \u201cI know Liberty doesn\u2019t have feelings for me, but that doesn\u2019t stop me from pursuing her.\u201d<\/div>\n
\u201cAs long as I\u2019m interested in her, that\u2019s what matters.\u201d<\/div>\n
Zachary shot him a disapproving look.<\/div>\n
Duncan chuckled.<\/div>\n
Sam poured him a glass of water.<\/div>\n
\u201cSam, where\u2019s your wife?\u201d Zachary inquired.<\/div>\n
Sam responded, \u201cMy wife and Ms. Hunt are taking a stroll and admiring the flowers in the garden with Sonny.\u201d<\/div>\n
Zachary hummed in reply and chose not to ask further.<\/div>\n

He stood up and left Duncan behind as he walked out of the house, clearly on his way to find Serenity. Duncan boldly followed him. Zachary glanced back at Duncan and asked, \u201cWhy are you following me?\u201d Duncan smiled and replied, \u201cI miss Sonny; I want to see him.\u201d <\/p>\n

They walked together and soon encountered the sisters, who were returning. <\/p>\n

\u201cSonny!\u201d Duncan called out. <\/p>\n

\u201cDunc!\u201d Sonny exclaimed. Unaware that Duncan wanted to be his father, Sonny ran toward him with excitement. <\/p>\n

\u201cSonny, come here. Let Uncle Zak carry you,\u201d Zachary said. <\/p>\n

Sonny rushed over, but it was Zachary who picked him up. Duncan had already squatted down with his arms open, waiting for Sonny to leap into his embrace, but Zachary intervened. <\/p>\n

The sisters approached. <\/p>\n

\u201cMr. Lewis,\u201d Serenity greeted Duncan politely. <\/p>\n

He returned her greeting with a smile and turned his attention to Liberty. <\/p>\n

\u201cGood morning, Mr. Lewis,\u201d Liberty said calmly, meeting his gaze directly without flinching.<\/p>\n
