Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 1617

Chapter 1617

Lily let go of Duncan because she knew that Duncan liked Liberty.

Apparently, she did not even try to hold onto Duncan before letting go of him.

Duncan had a unique taste. Since Lily could not satisfy Duncan, she might as well give up so that Duncan would not hate her. At least the two of them could still be business partners.

“Mrs. Lewis, I’ve helped you advise Mr. Lewis before. I told him that Ms. Harmon is nice. I noticed that he gets along quite well with her too.”

Liberty did advise Duncan.

Nevertheless, the attempt proved futile.

As Mrs. Lewis mentioned, Duncan was an independent and obstinate person. It was almost impossible to change his decision unless he was willing to give up or make changes himself.

“Liberty, I won’t blame this matter on you. The problem lies with Duncan, not you.”

If Liberty had pestered Duncan, Mrs. Lewis would have forcefully driven her away despite the powerful forces backing Liberty.

However, Liberty was not interested in Duncan. There was actually nothing Mrs. Lewis could do to Liberty.

“But Liberty, I need a favor from you.”

“Mrs. Lewis, what favor is that?”

Now that they had brought up this topic, Mrs. Lewis decided not to beat around the bush. She said directly, “Can you stop renting the unit on that street and relocate your business? It’s best that your shop is far away from Lewis & Co.

“Don’t worry. I’ll compensate you for all the losses resulting from your relocation.

“As long as the new shop you rent is far away from Lewis & Co., I’ll cover all your renovation expenses. You don’t need to pay a single cent.”

For someone who had been domineering in the family, Mrs. Lewis felt aggrieved in her communication with Liberty at this moment.

If it had been someone else, she would have tossed a check and driven that person away to settle the issue.

She would not care who was at fault.

She would not allow anyone she disliked to appear in front of her son.

Unfortunately, her unfilial son, Duncan, liked Liberty.

Liberty had the Stones and the Yorks backing her, which explained why Mrs. Lewis felt aggrieved and could not intimidate Liberty.

“I can consider canceling my tenancy agreement, moving out of that street, renting a new place on another street, renovating my shop, and starting everything anew. Having said that, do you think this will work, Mrs. Lewis?” Liberty asked.

When Duncan was a teenager, he stayed in other parts of Wiltspoon. Which corner of the city was he unaware of?
