Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2437

When Liberty brought the bottle of water out, she saw Duncan falling and getting up from afar. Duncan was still practicing his walking. She stopped and watched him hang on. She did not get close to him so as not to put pressure on him.

She had seen him at his worst. However, nobody liked to be seen at their worst.

Duncan had his pride.

Once Duncan was tired, he wanted to get back to his wheelchair but was too exhausted to get up. Since there was no one around, Duncan crawled back to his wheelchair and propped himself back onto it. After he had done all that, he caught his breath.

Liberty immediately hid behind a tree when Duncan looked around. She did not want Duncan to know that she was there.

It pained Liberty to see Duncan crawl and climb back to the wheelchair.

She had something to do with what happened to him.

Duncan was determined to pursue her, and he did not want to give up on her. He went against his mother’s wishes and got into a car accident.

It was all because of her.

A member of the Lewis family, Duncan was born with a silver spoon. He was meant for great things, but he had become paralyzed because of her. Liberty felt bad and blamed herself.

It was not her fault that Duncan was romantically interested in her, but Duncan did get into an accident because of her.

Although what happened to Duncan was an unfortunate accident, Liberty could not shake her guilt.

Liberty teared up. A while later, she dried her tears and calmed herself before approaching Duncan with the water like nothing ever happened.

“Mr. Lewis.”

His heart raced.

Liberty was kind and considerate to him. He wondered if Liberty could accept his feelings now that she was able to be intimate enough to wipe away his sweat.

Duncan looked down at his legs, dejected. He could not stand up and walk like he used to. Even if Liberty was ready to take their relationship to the next level, he did not want to be a burden to her.

Once he was all better, he must propose to Liberty.

Duncan gave himself a year. A year was not too long. He could not possibly let Liberty wait for him for too many years as it was her youth at stake. Although Liberty said she did not want to remarry, those who cared about her wanted her to have a fresh start.

He had gotten the approvals of Grandma May, Mrs. Stone, and Serenity.

With that in mind, Duncan refound his confidence.
