Chapter 1415
Duncan did not care how adamant his mother was and said with a smile, “Mom, you should worry about whether your son can win over Liberty first.”
Liberty suffered in her first marriage and no longer longed for love. She would not be easy to pursue.
Mrs. Lewis said angrily, “Are you really going to pursue her?”
“I didn’t know my feelings before, but when I found out that Liberty got injured, I was so afraid and heartbroken. Although I’m rough and not as attentive as Josh, I’m not stupid. I know that this is care–this is love!
“I care about Liberty and like her! Since I like her, I have to pursue her. I can’t just secretly harbor feelings for her while waiting for her to take the initiative to marry me. That’s wishful thinking.”
Mrs. Lewis slapped him and warned, “Duncan Lewis, I’m officially warning you now. You’re not allowed to pursue Liberty. Otherwise, don’t blame me for taking action.”
“Love that has braved through storms will last longer. Mom, you can come at me if you’re dissatisfied, but don’t go after Liberty. If you harm her, our relationship with the York and Stone families will be over. Think about it.
“How detrimental will it be if our family completely falls out with the two most influential families in Wiltspoon? Besides, you stopping me won’t make me give up on her. I won’t go along with your arrangements, so don’t think about controlling me.
Mrs. Lewis was speechless.
She was so angry that she could do nothing but just glare at him.
Her son was hyper–independent.
When he was young and impetuous, that independence was disobedience in the eyes of his parents. He was too opinionated and unwilling to listen to the words of others. He did whatever he pleased.
It was like how he, the fourth young master of the Lewis family, went and became a gangster.
If his grandmother’s death had not dragged him back, he might have become a mob boss in the underworld by now.
Most children lived under the protection of their families and needed a hand from their families to start a business.
