It was all because she was their eldest sister–in–law.
Zack stopped talking and drove the car to send his wife to the hospital.
The couple bumped into Duncan at the hospital.
Duncan held a bouquet of flowers in one hand and an insulated lunch box in the other. It seemed like he prepared a tonic soup for Liberty.
He did not see Serena and Zack because they were behind him.
Zack said to Serena, “Duncan is quite knowledgeable. Even an oaf like him knows to send tonic soup to Liberty.”
Serena gave him a look.
He had never given her tonic soup to drink before.
Zack was not dumb. He quickly caught onto the hidden meaning of his wife’s expression.
He smiled and said, “I’ll cook and make tonic soup for you this weekend.”
“I think between you and your friends, you’re the slowest when it comes to relationships. When Mr.
Lewis realized his feelings, he dove right into delivering flowers and soup. As for Mr. Bucham, his EQ is ten times yours. Before, you only knew how to pull a long face and get me to obey you 100
Zack cleared his throat and blushed slightly. “Honey, we’re at the hospital. There are lots of people coming in and out. Don’t embarrass me like that.”
“I’m not yelling till the whole world can hear,” Serena whispered before raising her voice to call out to Duncan.
“Mr. Lewis.”
Duncan heard Serena. He stopped in his tracks and turned his head. He smiled when he saw his friend with his wife. “Zack, Serena, good morning. Are you here to see Liberty too?”
“Yeah, I brought breakfast for my sister. What are you doing here, Mr. Lewis?”
Zack winked at his friend.
Duncan thought, ‘Holy crap! Is that really Zack? Did he just wink at me?‘
If Zack could read Duncan’s thoughts, he would be speechless.
“I–I–I came to see Liberty and send her some tonic soup to nourish her body.”
Serena looked at the insulated lunch box he was carrying and said, “I also brought tonic soup for her, along with breakfast. Nana and my aunt also often send soup over.”
Liberty was probably scared to drink tonic soup now.
After a moment of silence, Duncan said, “You send her tonic soup as a token of your sincerity, and I send her tonic soup as a token of mine. Serena, thank you for letting your sister know about my feelings for her. I’m serious about your sister. I hope you won’t stop me from pursuing her.”
Serena said, “I won’t support you, but I won’t stop you either. This is my sister’s business, so it’s up to her. I’ll support her no matter what decision she makes.
“However, I do have a few words for you, Mr. Lewis. If my sister is still unable to accept you, please be the bigger person and let her go. Don’t keep pestering her.”
Upon hearing what Serena said, he could not help but think, ‘As expected of Zack’s wife.”
The husband and wife said almost the exact same thing.
“Serena, I can only say that I won’t give up as long as your sister doesn’t remarry.”
Duncan spoke solemnly.
There was nothing else Serena could say.
Putting aside everything else, she held quite an admiration for Duncan.
The three of them entered the in–patient building together. When they arrived at Liberty’s ward, they saw Hank standing by the door early in the morning.
This time, Hank came alone.
Olivia and Chelsea did not tag along..
Hank was also holding a bouquet and an insulated lunch box.
His parents asked him to do this.
Serena was a little surprised when she saw Hank. Did her grandparents not stop him from coming out?
However, Olivia and Chelsea did not come, so it was still better than before.
Hank was a walking contradiction now and could easily be driven away.
“Hank Brown, are you here to disturb Liberty’s rest again? Get lost!”
Noah walked past the trio and stormed up to Hank!
With one hand, he snatched Hank’s bouquet, threw it on the ground, and lifted his foot to step on it. The flowers were flattened by his stomps.
He wanted to snatch the insulated lunch box from Hank’s grasp, but Hank gripped the handle tightly. The York family bodyguards watched from the side as Noah tried to wrestle the lunch box away.
“Noah.”
Serena walked over and called out to her youngest cousin.
–“Serena, you’re here. This guy is really hateful. He used his parents to distract Grandmom and Granddad while he slipped away. I chased him all the way here with my car but couldn’t catch up to him and he managed to come here to disturb Liberty.”
As Noah spoke, he saw Hank distracted and finally managed to grab the lunch box.
Just when everyone thought he would throw it into the trash, he opened it up instead and drank the soup straight from the box.
The others were speechless.
“That soup isn’t for you, Hunt.”
Hank snatched back the insulated lunch box, but Noah had drunk half of the content inside.
He flushed with anger and yelled at Noah, “Did you inhale the soup? Half of it is gone!”
“You’re the stingy one for only preparing one bowl of soup. What’s strange about me drinking half of it in one go? In order to stop you, I didn’t even eat breakfast. I’m starving now. Anyway, I already tried the soup. Liberty would definitely be disgusted by it. It’s better for me to drink the rest.”
Noah grabbed Hank’s lunch box again, turned around, and finished off the soup.
Hank looked at Serena.
Serena said with a cold face, “Mr. Brown, my sister doesn’t want to see you. Please don’t come here again.”
“Serena, Jessica did it because she was threatened. She…”
Serena’s expression grew colder. “You show your face so early in the morning not because you care about my sister, but to plead for your wife, didn’t you? You really do love your wife. Not only did you forgive her for harming your own son, but you also want my sister to forgive her.
“Noah, please drag this eyesore out after you finish the soup.”
Noah responded, “Don’t worry, Serena. I’ll take care of him for you.”
Serena did not want to deal with Hank anymore and entered the ward as the bodyguards opened the door for her.
