Mrs. Lewis really liked Lily and tried her best to matchmake her with Duncan. However, Lily was not in a hurry to pursue Duncan. Instead, she accompanied Mrs. Lewis everywhere when she was free so that Mrs. Lewis would like her more.
She was trying to appeal to her mother–in–law first.
At Lily’s words, Mrs. Lewis turned her head to look outside the window. Lily was driving, and there were many cars behind them, so she could not suddenly brake or slow down. They were already a distance away by the time Mrs. Lewis turned to look.
However, a mother could still easily recognize her son.
“It’s Duncan,” Mrs. Lewis said confidently.
“Who’s that woman talking to him?”
Mrs. Lewis did not see Liberty clearly and said, “Lily, there’s an intersection ahead where you can make a U–turn. Let’s go back and see who that woman is.”
Her youngest son seldom interacted with the opposite sex unless they were family or talking about business. That was why he was still single.
Mrs. Lewis felt that the scar on her son’s face was too scary.
It became the main reason he was still single.
“Okay.”
Lily also wanted to know who that woman was.
Duncan was the target she wanted to pursue now. Harmon Corporation wanted to do business in Wiltspoon. If she could marry Duncan, it would be a great help to the Harmon family.
Duncan and her together would be a strong duo.
She appreciated a man like Duncan who could make a living for himself without relying on his family. Even if he had a scar on his face, he was very masculine. She liked and admired him very much.
Duncan did not know that his mother and Lily saw him talking to Liberty.
After asking Liberty, he rubbed Sonny’s head and wanted to carry him, but the boy refused. Thus, Duncan had to give up.
“I went out to handle some business, but it’s done now. I’m taking Sonny back for a nap.”
Liberty asked him, “Where are you going, Mr. Lewis? We won’t take up your time if you’re busy.”
Duncan smiled. “I’ve just finished dealing with my business too. I’m going back to the office now.”
He looked at Sonny and said to her, “You should buy a car, Liberty. A car will be safer if you’re taking Sonny with you. It’s always more dangerous on the road with a bike.”
“I told Seren to accompany me to a dealership this weekend. I’ll buy a car if one catches my eye. You’re right, it’s time I get a car. It’ll be more convenient when I have to stock up on ingredients too.”
She thought about buying a cargo motorcycle, but after thinking about it, it was better to buy a sedan, which would be more convenient to move the ingredients she needed for her shop.
Duncan said, “A close acquaintance of mine runs a car dealership. How about I bring you there?”
“No need. Seren will go with me. You’re a busy man. I shouldn’t take up your time.”
“Didn’t you say you’d be going on the weekend? I don’t have work during the weekend either, and I have nothing to do at home. Serena’s knowledge of cars definitely won’t be as comprehensive as what men know.”
Duncan tried to come up with a reason to accompany Liberty.
Liberty laughed and said, “Seren doesn’t know much, but Zack does. Zack doesn’t work during the weekend either.”
Duncan stopped talking.
He forgot about Zack.
If Serena was accompanying her sister to look for a car, there was no way Zack would not tag along.
“Then, let me know if you need any help.”
“Okay. Thank you, Mr. Lewis.”
Liberty thanked him politely and added, “We’ll be going now. Goodbye.”
Duncan said, “Drive safe. Bye, Sonny.”
Sonny waved at him. “Bye bye, Dunc.”
Liberty rode her e–bike and left with her son.
Duncan stood where he was and watched the mother and son’s backs fade away. When they were out of sight, he turned back to his car, started the engine, and went back to his office.
After his car left, the BMW parked a hundred feet behind his car drove off as well.
“Drive ‘faster, Lily. Overtake Duncan’s car and go further ahead to see who that woman is.”
The two did not drive past Duncan after making the U–turn because they were afraid of being discovered by him, so they stopped not far from where he parked. However, they could not see the woman’s face clearly from that distance.
Mrs. Lewis saw Liberty before, but that was when Liberty was still fat.
Now that Liberty had lost dozens of pounds, Mrs. Lewis could not recognize her anymore.
Furthermore, she only glanced at Liberty a few times during the Stone family banquet. She did not pay attention to Liberty.
Lily hummed.
She stepped on the gas and sped up behind Duncan’s car.
She soon overtook his car.
Duncan only saw his mother’s car when it overtook him. However, he did not catch up to say hello to them. There was no need for him to ask to know that his mother was with Lily. He was afraid Lily would pester him again if he tried to catch up with them.
Lily was someone who made a killing in the business world. When she had her eyes on a man, she pursued him openly and fearlessly. She was a very bold woman.
Liberty rode a bike, so she was not as fast as a car.
A few minutes later, Lily’s car passed by Liberty.
Mrs. Lewis lowered the window to have a look. She could not see Liberty’s face since she was wearing a helmet, but she saw Sonny sitting in the children’s seat.
She quickly raised the window again.
Her expression was dark.
“Do you know her, Mrs. Lewis?” Lily asked curiously.
She saw Sonny too.
The woman had a child, which meant she had a husband. Lily’s nervousness disappeared when she realized there was no way the woman would become her love rival.
