Chapter 1481
Ring, ring, ring…
Duncan’s phone rang.
It was Zachary who called.
Duncan immediately answered it.
“Josh is inviting us to dinner tonight.”
Duncan beat Zachary to it as he assumed Zachary was going to ask if he was free.
The three of them were the closest of friends. Since Josh was no longer a bachelor and invited
them to dinner, Duncan would go even if he was busy.
“I know, he sent me a message long ago.”
Zachary held his phone in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other. He called Duncan while he was drinking coffee.
“My wife saw through you.”
“Saw through me?”
Duncan did not get it at first.
He soon understood and responded, “She saw through me? That’s good. I was wondering how I can say it.”
Initially, Duncan wanted to act on his feelings after realizing them.
It was Zachary who persuaded him to hold back.
Zachary told Duncan that it was inappropriate to tell Liberty about his feelings at the moment because she was injured and still weak. He asked Duncan to wait first.
Considering his mom’s dislike for Liberty and that Liberty had experienced a failed marriage, Duncan was willing to wait for a few years.
He could silently protect Liberty by her side. Once she achieved success and was recognized, he would confess to her.
Duncan thought the two of them would have a much better chance of getting together then.
Besides, time would reveal a person’s heart.
