Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2757

Duncan said, “It was a last-minute decision, so Sonny doesn’t know. His friend was visiting. He’s having so much fun that he forgets that I exist. There’s no way he’ll care about where I go.”

Liberty smiled. “He doesn’t even miss me that much, let alone you.”

“Sonny is close to Serenity. That’s why you can leave so easily.”

“You’re right. Seren has been helping me take care of Sonny since he was born. She was the one who cared for me and Sonny during my postpartum. Sonny’s father had to work. He only took a few days' leave when I gave birth in the hospital. As for my former in-laws, they disappeared after visiting Sonny in the hospital.

“They were even urging me to try for a second baby before my divorce. It was lucky that I got a divorce. Otherwise, my whole life would’ve been ruined by that family.”

Liberty pushed Duncan into the elevator.

When they reached the third floor, she picked a private room and helped Duncan to sit on a chair. She asked, “What do you want to eat?”

“You make the call. I’m not picky. Anything is fine.”

Liberty invited the bodyguards to sit too. She scanned the QR code on the wall for the menu and ordered a few dishes according to Duncan’s tastes. Then, she asked the bodyguards, “Do you all want some wine?

“I can drive Duncan around if he wants to go somewhere. You all can drink without worrying about driving later.”

Duncan’s bodyguard said, “We don’t drink, Ms. Hunt. You don’t have to order any wine.”

Duncan did not drink either.

Liberty, Jim, and a few others had already eaten. They were just there to accompany Duncan to eat and would only take a few bites at most. “We’ll skip the wine then.”

“Liberty, I spoke from the heart. I’ve said that I don’t mind being Sonny’s stepfather. I’ll still be a fatherly figure to him. He’ll be filial to me if I raise him. I believe Sonny is a grateful child.”

Duncan dared not imagine what kind of person Sonny would be after being raised by the Browns if Hank had been granted custody of the child but he would grow up to be a decent human being with Liberty raising him.

“We can talk about this later. Even if I’m prepared to get married now, you’re unwilling to marry me anyway.”

Duncan smiled. “I’ll definitely propose to you once I’ve recovered. I’ll persevere with my rehab to marry you as soon as possible. I won’t ever disagree on anything with you or overthink in the future.”

After a pause, he laughed and mocked himself. “I used to criticize Zachary in my head back when he fell out with Serenity. I felt he had become petty ever since he got married. He would get upset over minor issues and not speak to her. Once they weren’t on speaking terms, he liked to call me and Josh out for a drink.

“I never thought it would happen to me one day. I’ve become as petty as him. I got angry when it wasn’t even your fault. I’m sorry for that day, Liberty.”
