Chapter 982
“You can talk to me about it, Nana. No need to look for Duncan.”
“I don’t need you. Stop with the questions. Hurry up and give me Duncan’s number.”
Zachary skeptically gave his best friend’s number to his nana. At the end of it, he persistently asked, “What happened, Nana? Why do you need to talk to Duncan?”
“It’s none of your business. Go back to work.”
Grandma May immediately hung up on her darling grandson after getting Duncan’s number.
Over on the other side, Zachary was speechless.
Could he not be a little nosy to ask about it?
Grandma May dialed Duncan’s number and spoke in an anxious tone when Duncan picked up, “It’s bad, Duncan! It’s bad! Those absurd people are out to get Liberty again. It’s Liberty’s ex–mother–in–law and sister–in–law. They’re jealous that Liberty set up a diner. They want Liberty to transfer the ownership of the restaurant to them. Liberty can’t face those two women alone. She’s no longer the two–hundred–pound woman she was.
“I’m only an old lady. There’s only so much I can help with. I couldn’t scare them away by lying on the ground. I can only call you for help. Your office is the nearest to here. You can send a few security guards over.”
Without giving Duncan a chance to speak, Grandma May terminated the call.
“I’ll know what you’re after if you come here in person, but I could be wrong about you if you send your security guards instead.”
Clenching onto her phone, Grandma May exited the loo.
There was no telling what the Brown mother and daughter said because Liberty appeared furious and was chasing them out.
Grandma May nearly went to drag Mrs. Brown and Chelsea back.
