Chapter 1619
“Mrs. Lewis, is there anything else? If not, I’ll take my leave. Sonny is still in the mall. I need to pick him up.”
Deep down, Liberty was slightly bitter about it.
She had never thought of being in a relationship with Duncan. However, in the face of Mrs. Lewis’s request, it was only natural to feel bitter.
All Liberty did was rent Duncan’s store. Besides Duncan being good friends with Zachary, Duncan had helped her a lot, which was why she treated him enthusiastically. Even so, she had never thought of being with Duncan, yet she was compelled to leave.
She did not do anything wrong, so why must she leave?
“You may take your leave. Be careful while riding on the road since there’s heavy traffic,” Mrs. Lewis said with fake gentleness.
Liberty took the key to her e–bike before she bade Mrs. Lewis goodbye. Then, she rose to her feet and left.
Soon after Liberty left, Derek came in.
Seeing his wife seated in a corner, he walked toward her.
“How was the talk? It ended so quickly?”
Derek saw Liberty leave with a calm expression, which he could not decipher.
He had no idea how the discussion went between the two women.
“I told her what I came here to tell her, and our talk ended just like that. It didn’t work out. She’s as stubborn as your son. She doesn’t think it’s her problem…” After falling quiet for a moment, she added, “Though it’s true that it’s not her problem.”
She let out a long sigh before she told her husband about the conversation between Liberty and her.
