Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 1848

Zachary had no choice but to push Duncan to a cool place and told him, “You can’t be here alone, Duncan. It’s getting hotter, you’ll get heatstroke in this scorching sun.”

Duncan wiped the sweat off his face and replied, “It was still shady when I got here.”

However, as time passed, the sun gradually moved toward a spot that exposed Duncan to direct sunlight.

“I have water and napkins in a bag attached to my wheelchair,” said Duncan.

Zachary quickly unhooked the bag behind the wheelchair and took out a bottle of water, along with some napkins, and handed them over to Duncan. Zachary nagged, “You have to pick a better time to practice your walking. Preferably at dusk or dawn, when the sun is not scorching. It’ll be cooler and more suitable for your practice.”

The trees in the backyard made a pleasant shade, which made it a cool and refreshing place to hang around.

“Also, you shouldn’t come out alone. No one will know if something happens.”

After Duncan wiped off his sweat and drank half a bottle of water, he said, “I’ve got a mobile phone with me. I’ll call them and ask them to push me back to the house if I can’t stand it anymore.

“You know what, Zachary? I want to be fully recovered as soon as possible and be able to stand up and walk again. I want to pursue Liberty again.”

Liberty was the reason Duncan was so impatient.

Hank was currently lying in the ICU with an uncertain fate, so he did not have to worry about anyone competing with him for Liberty at the moment. However, as Liberty became more outstanding by the day, he worried that while he was recuperating, there may be other pursuers vying for her attention.

Duncan would not be at ease until he could marry Liberty.

“I know you want a quick recovery and get back to normal, Duncan. But you can’t be too impatient. The doctor said you need to rest for a while before starting rehabilitation. It might have the opposite effect on you if you rush it.

“Don’t worry about Liberty. There won’t be any new suitors around her for the time being. She’s busy with her own business and making money. She doesn’t have the time or inclination to think about relationships. Besides, she has always emphasized that she doesn’t want to get married again.”
