Chapter 1405
“What’s wrong with me being here to watch over Liberty? How does it affect you? Who are you to Liberty? Is it your place to influence my decision? You don’t need to care about how Liberty is doing It’s your family–your awesome sister–in–law–that caused her to be lying there now!” Duncan said to Chelsea.
“Jessica is a spiteful woman. I never considered her as my sister–in–law, and I only recognize Liberty as that.”
“Hah!”
Duncan said sarcastically, “Have you forgotten what you did to Liberty back then, Mrs. Repton? Liberty needs rest, and your family isn’t welcome here, so please leave now!”
Duncan gestured to the Yorks‘ bodyguards to shoo Chelsea, her parents, and George.
The Browns were the most bizarre and outrageous people he had ever met.
Chelsea did not get to see Liberty. Duncan was standing in the doorway, so she did not even have a chance to get close.
The York’s bodyguards came to shoo her, so her parents pulled her away.
In Duncan’s words, Liberty was lying there at the moment because of their family.
After the Browns left, Duncan looked at Liberty again through the ward’s window.
“Liberty, don’t worry. I’ll help you teach them a lesson if they dare bully and pester you again. You must also be firm and don’t be fooled by their sweet words. They’re now bent on getting you and Hank to remarry because you’re capable of earning money now and your sister is married to a rich family. They only want to benefit from you.”
Duncan said many things to Liberty.
Originally, he agreed with Zachary and Serenity that they would split the night watch.
However, he could not leave and kept watch throughout the night.
Zachary wanted his beloved wife to rest well, to begin with, so he secretly turned off her alarm.
Duncan stayed awake until dawn and turned haggard overnight.
“Liberty, it’s almost daytime. Do you think the sun will be up today? Usually, you’ll already be busy working at your breakfast store at this time. I like to eat your breakfast and watch your confident and busy figure.
“Liberty, you have to wake up soon and stop sleeping. We’re all worried about you–so worried about you.
