Serenity and Zachary York 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.”
