Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 1233

Chapter 1233

After Duncan scared Jessica away, he looked at the closed door and pulled out his phone to call Liberty.

It did not take long for Liberty to accept the call.

“Why aren’t you open today, Liberty?”

Duncan came off a bit harsh.

“Seren and I are off to take care of some stuff in our hometown. I’m closed for the day to resolve the ownership issue with our parents‘ home today. What’s the matter?”

Duncan asked, “Oh. Is it going to be resolved today? Do you need to go to court?”

He could give a hand if Liberty wanted to take the Hunt family to court.

“We’re settling it out of court. I got to go, Mr. Lewis. Talk soon.”

“Sure.”

Duncan hung up the call.

Why did he not receive any news about Liberty’s home issue being resolved? She did not tell him anything.

Come to think of it, why would she tell him?

He was not anybody to her. She had no obligation to talk to him about her personal matters.

With that in mind, Duncan felt a lot better.

Since All You Can Eat was not open for business, Duncan had to rush to the office for a meeting on an empty stomach.

Not too long after he left, Lily appeared at the diner.

Of course, Lily could not see anything since the place was closed. She still had no idea that Liberty owned All You Can Eat.

She came to deliver homemade breakfast to Duncan.

Duncan took a seat and said, “Tell her I don’t have time today. I’m going to a meeting. She can look for my mom for anything.”

The secretary was without a word.

It was too late.

Ms. Harmon was here and right behind him.

“I want to talk about a partnership with you. I don’t think Mrs. Lewis can help me with that,” Lily said while carrying two food containers into the CEO’s office.

The secretary tactfully retreated out of the office.

With Lily entering the office, Duncan cussed his secretary in his mind for informing him too late.

It was his mother’s fault too. Since his mother brought Lily to stroll around the company, it was basically giving Lily the green light to roam as she pleased.

Alas, Mrs. Harmon was a good friend of his mom for decades, so Duncan was not in a position to kick Lily out. Besides, Lily had not done anything to cross the line. She was merely visiting his company and proposing a collaboration.
