Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 1316

Chapter 1316

Lily had a habit of going on a stroll after eating.

Mrs. Lewis looked at Duncan.

Duncan and his three brothers were talking about the recent trends in the stock market.

He did not notice the conversation between Lily and his mother, much less his mother staring at

him.

It was his second brother who noticed first. He nudged Duncan and whispered, “Mom is looking at you. I think she wants you to do something.”

Duncan turned to look at his mother and smiled. “What’s up, Mom?”

Why was she looking at him like that?

“Lily wants to go on a stroll. Go with her.”

Mrs. Lewis did not expect this son of hers to appreciate the pains she was taking, so she spoke bluntly and told him to accompany Lily on a walk.

Duncan looked at Lily and said, “Ms. Harmon, you’ve lived in my home for a while now, so you should be familiar with the environment here. You can’t go very far, so you can just walk by yourself. You won’t get lost.”

Mrs. Lewis’s expression darkened. She almost wanted to throw something at Duncan.

Lily smiled. “Yes, I won’t get lost, but it’s boring to walk alone. I want a companion to chat with me

as I walk.

“Can you come with me?”

As all eyes were on Duncan, the words of refusal climbed up his throat before he swallowed them down again.

He said, “The sun is right above us now. It’s too hot.”

It was not evening.

The weather in Wiltspoon started warming up around March to April, and many would change to short–sleeved shirts by May. They would start longing for their electric fans.

“It’s windy today and not hot at all,” Mrs. Lewis said. “Lily is our guest, so you have to walk with

her.”

Duncan looked at his three brothers, hoping that they would speak up for him. However, they glanced away and refused to meet his eyes.

With no other choice, Duncan stood up and said to Lily, “Let’s go, Ms. Harmon. I’ll accompany you for a stroll outside.”

Lily smiled. “Thank you for sparing the time, Duncan.”

Looking at the backs of the two people going out together, Mrs. Lewis said to her husband

happily, “Those two are such a great match. Duncan just doesn’t understand. Lily is a great girl. If he doesn’t grab her, she’ll be taken away by someone else.

“He only has this advantage because I’m good friends with Lily’s mother.”
