Love at first sight novel (Judith Cooper) novel Chapter 1696

Chapter 1696

Seeing the York brothers walking over, the Lewis family’s bodyguards‘ heads hurt.

“Mr. York.”

The bodyguards bit the bullet and stepped forward to stop Zachary and the others from advancing. One of them said apologetically, “Mr. York, Mr. Duncan doesn’t want to meet you all. Please leave.”

They did not want to be put in a difficult spot.

Zachary said with a deep voice, “Is Duncan awake?”

“He is, but he doesn’t have an appetite and refuses breakfast. Whether the food was delivered from home or Ms. Liberty, he wouldn’t eat it. He even knocked over the breakfast Ms. Liberty brought.

“Mr. and Mrs. Lewis are inside trying to persuade Mr. Duncan to eat something. He’s in a terrible mood now.”

The bodyguards said all that in hopes that Zachary and the rest would leave and not put them in a difficult spot.

Actually, they wished Mr. Duncan would meet his friends and stop lying on the bed and driving himself into a dead end.

Unfortunately, Mr. Duncan would not listen to Mr. and Mrs. Lewis’s words, not to mention theirs.

Duncan had been in bed for over ten days. His mental state had already crumbled. He hoped he could stand up immediately and walk like a normal person. That way, he would not have to be bedridden and have others take care of him.

He did not wish to see anyone either.

Duncan felt his visitors always had sympathy in their gazes.

He was crippled

He could not walk

Even if he could sit in a wheelchair, he was upset.

The doctor said he still had to lie down for some time. When his legs got better, he would not feel as uncomfortable sitting in a wheelchair. However, recovering to a normal person’s state would require a long time and consistent physiotherapy.

“I’m not eating. I don’t have an appetite. Take it away. Remove it!”

Duncan’s roar rang from the ward.
