Hank was well aware that Jessica would be left homeless if he divorced her.
Chelsea told her younger brother off for being heartless toward Liberty yet loving toward Jessica.
“Sonny.”
Duncan smiled while walking toward Sonny to carry him. After that, he lifted Sonny and turned around, making Sonny burst into laughter.
Seeing their joyful and close interaction, the passers-by were under the impression that the two of them were father and son.
After Duncan stopped lifting Sonny and spinning him, he asked Sonny with a grin, “Are you happy?”
“Yeah.”
Sonny laughed so much that his face reddened.
Duncan loved his flushed face. Sonny looked so cute that Duncan could not help but kiss him on the cheek.
Unexpectedly, Sonny kissed Duncan back.
Duncan grinned from ear to ear.
He was overjoyed at Sonny’s response.
He decided not to wash his face tonight.
Duncan carried Sonny and walked up to Liberty. He fixed his profound gaze on Liberty and said gently,” Liberty, since you’re shopping with Sonny, you probably need someone to carry things for you. I’m very strong, and I can help you carry.”
“Mr. Lewis, why are you here?”
Liberty’s attitude toward Duncan did not change.
She would not change her attitude just because Duncan was going after her fervently.
“I-I happened to pass by.”
Duncan would not admit that he had gone to Liberty’s place. Coincidentally, he saw Liberty taking Sonny out with the bike, so he tailed them.
Then, he pretended to run into them.
Liberty would not buy that.
He must have come over on purpose.
However, Liberty did not expose him. She said, “Sonny wanted to go to the third floor, so I took him here to play for a while. We’re not buying anything, so we won’t need anyone to carry things for us. Mr. Lewis, I’m sure you have other things to handle. You may carry on with your work. Sonny, let’s go.”
She went out and ended up meeting her ex-husband as well as her courter.
Liberty felt that it was really a small world.
“Dunc, do you want to play with us?”
Liberty wanted to get rid of Duncan very badly, yet her beloved son invited him along.
Duncan answered eagerly, “Sure. I’ve gotten off work. I have plenty of free time now, so I can play with you.”
While speaking, he carried Sonny and said to Liberty, “Liberty, let’s go.”
As for Hank and Jessica, Duncan turned a blind eye to them. He was not bothered to look at them at all.
He knew that Hank was glaring at him ferociously.
The situation exasperated Hank.
Hank had only himself to blame for hurting Liberty. Because of him, Liberty stopped looking forward to love and marriage, and he had not made any progress in his plan to win her heart again.
“Sonny.
“Sonny.”
Something seemed to be wrong with Hank. He kept shouting his son’s name as he strode toward his son.
“Sonny, I’ll play with you.
Hank hurriedly caught up with Duncan and blocked him.
He stretched out his hand to snatch Sonny over.
Sonny was Hank’s son!
He shared the same surname as Hank, namely Brown!
He had nothing to do with Duncan at all. There was no need for Duncan to play with Sonny.
Sonny’s biological father was here!
“Sonny, let Dad play with you, okay?”
As Hank asked Sonny, his eyes were fixed on Duncan. He purposely stressed the word “Dad”.
Hank would forever be Sonny’s father!
If Duncan wanted to be Sonny’s father, he could dream on!
Hank failed to stop Duncan from going after his ex-wife. After all, he was still married to Jessica. What was more, Jessica was pregnant with his child, which meant he could not divorce her at this point.
If Liberty wanted to remarry, she had the freedom to do so.
Besides feeling annoyed, there was really nothing Hank could do.
Sonny was Hank’s son. When Duncan approached Sonny, Hank stopped Duncan in spite of himself to avoid Duncan and Sonny from behaving like father and son.
“Dad, are you not going to accompany Jess to buy something?”
Sonny pointed at Jessica.
Jessica pulled a long face.
Sonny thought that Jess must be mad if his father chose to play with him.
After listening to Liberty’s explanation, Sonny came to understand that his father would live with Jess in the future.
Hank turned around and glanced at Jessica before he said to Sonny, “No. I’ll play with you first. When you don’t feel like playing anymore, I’ll accompany Jess to buy things. I can buy whatever you want.
“Sonny, you have a father. Regardless of your dad and mom’s relationship, I’ll forever be your biological dad!
“I love you. Don’t be fooled by other people. Don’t simply address someone else as ‘Dad’, okay? Some people have bad intentions. They take advantage of you to achieve their goals.”
Overly jealous, Hank reminded his son in front of Duncan and Liberty.
“Hank.”
Liberty asked, “Why are you saying these things to Sonny?”
“I’m just telling the truth.”
Hank shot a look at Duncan.
Then, he said to Liberty, “Liberty, although we have an unhappy past, you’re still Sonny’s mom. I hope you live well. Let me remind you not to get deceived by other people.”
“Thank you for your reminder. I’m clear-headed.”
Liberty’s voice was cold.
She was not in love with Duncan, but she believed that he was trustworthy.
“Hank…”
Jessica suddenly wrapped her hands around her stomach. With a sour look, she shouted to Hank, “Hank, my stomach isn’t feeling well. I’m not sure if this is a symptom of a miscarriage.”
Upon hearing that, Hank immediately put Sonny down.
