Chapter 1269 Lily steered the wheel while remarking, "Which is why | said that the Hunt sisters have very good characters. Considering how Liberty's marriage had just fallen through, | doubt she would be looking for a new relationship so soon.
‘The only thing she’s focused on now is starting her business and making money. Another marriage has probably never even crossed her mind yet." People who had experienced a failed marriage tend to be more vigilant when it cto founding a new relationship with another.
Since her mind was fixed on building a foundation for her business, romantic affairs should not concern her in the least.

Don't even think about setting up her restaurant at our property. It doesn't seem like she's up to anything now but I still feel strangely suspicious about her, like something's going to happen between her and Duncan later on." "You can deal with it when it happens, too much precaution can be a bad thing sometimes. Besides, you have to factor in that she's not all alone. Her sister is the lady of the York household so Liberty has the entire York family backing her. You've seen how Tania is so protective of Serenity even when she is not very fond of her.” Mrs. Lewis agreed with Lily's sentiments. ‘The Yorks have a close relationship with my family as well, so | certainly cannot brashly shove Liberty out the door just because | wanted to. Otherwise, I'll risk offending the Yorks. Also, Liberty's aunt, Mrs.
Stone, is not someone | want to mess with." Originally, Mrs. Lewis wanted to dissuade her son from renting the shop lot to Liberty for her diner as a means to keep their interaction at a bare minimum. That way, she could rest her worries about a relationship sparking between the two.
The way things were now, she would coff as rather unreasonable for doing so. Pulling off such a stunt would also anger the Yorks as well as the Stones. It might be quite unnecessary as well since it did not seem like Liberty was interested in Duncan.
It was simply not worth it.
However, it might be too late to spring to action only after something happened between Duncan and Liberty.
As a mother, Mrs. Lewis was well informed of Duncan's personality.
He would not rashly commit to a relationship, but once he did, you could assthat he was committed for life.
They stayed quiet for a while before Lily broke the silence, "Mrs. Lewis, let's forget about trying to chase Liberty out. It's not exactly easy for her to start a business as a newly-divorced woman. Besides, business seems good right now, and | wouldn't want to get in the way of a mother trying to make ends meet for the sake of her son.

"Every man has a different preference for a partner. Sare just desperate for a partner and can settle for any common lady while others prefer a strong character in the person they are going to spend the rest of their lives with to form the ideal power couple. We don't know yet if Duncan is the former or latter type." Mrs. Lewis expressed with a sigh, "Lily, it's admirable that you are staying true to your conviction but just remember that I'm on your side.
"Liberty might not be hatching any ideas about Duncan right now but if she does fall in love with him later on, | will be the first to object to their marriage. She shouldn't even think about joining my family. My son has not even had a girlfriend yet, so why should he be marrying a woman already burdened with a child?" Lily smiled and said kindly, ‘Thank you, | will do my best and know that however this ends, | gave it my all." She was beaming with confidence.
"Lily, you don't even know how fond | am of you. | truly hope things will work out between you and Duncan. | believe in you! | long for the day we becfamily." Lily smiled warmly.
A crew had cto deliver the hand-woven goods to Serenity again.
After inspecting the delivery and ensuring that there was no problem with the products, she settled the payment before issuing yet another new order.
After seeing the part-tcrafters off, she put the handicraft into packages and called a courier to collect them.
Shortly after, the courier showed up to collect said packages. After the matter was settled, Serenity looked at the tand turned to Jasmine," Jas, I'm taking Sonny to go shopping with me." MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 mmMwWLLIOfiflO& 1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MULL TO £2 E1061 mmMwWLIiIOfiflO&1
