Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2241

Liberty drew close and stared at Duncan and Sonny, who could be mistaken for father and son.

She did not wake them both up. Instead, Liberty looked around the room. The servers had completed a round of cleanup before their shift ended, leaving the restaurant in tip-top shape.

It was the restaurant’s opening day. In addition to the invited friends and family, the restaurant opened its doors to many customers. Liberty offered a discount and a small souvenir to all patrons.

Liberty had just balanced the book for today, and the profits were a lot more than her breakfast diner’s.

Nevertheless, the restaurant was only packed on its first day of business, thanks to the VIP guests.

Only time would tell if her business would continue to thrive.

Liberty was confident that her restaurant would surpass the success of her breakfast diner.

She would then move on to the next goal once she achieved the one at hand.

Liberty gently pulled a chair and sat down, quietly watching the man and the boy who had been there for her until the very end.

Everybody else had left, including Serenity. Liberty was not going to let her pregnant sister stay late into the night. She had told Zachary to take Serenity home right after lunch.

Other friends and family had gone their separate ways throughout the afternoon.

The ones who kept her company into the wee hours were her son, Sonny, and a long-time admirer, Duncan.

Duncan had lost a significant amount of weight during his hospitalization, but he pulled himself together, was in a better place mentally, and started regaining weight after being discharged.

He often said that he would have let himself go if he had not persisted in the rehabilitation program.

Duncan even asked Liberty whether she would like him if he continued to neglect himself.
