Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1039

Duncan too knew that Liberty did not need his help-she had the Stone and York families helping her now.

After a moment of silence, he said, “Anyway, go ahead and do your thing. I’ll head back lest my mother calls to urge me again.”

“Alright. Have a safe drive, Mr. Lewis.”

Liberty walked Duncan out of her shop.

Duncan looked at Hank’s car and asked Liberty. “That’s your ex-husband’s car, right?”

“I saw him get out of it. It’s probably his new car.”

Hank had changed his wife and his car too.

If Zachary had not punished Hank, Hank would have been living very comfortably. He would have money, a new wife, and a new car…

Duncan wanted to walk over and poke a hole in Hank’s tires, but when he thought of how Hank would likely be unable to leave for a while with his tires punctured and would stay in Liberty’s diner to eat, Duncan gave up on his thoughts.

“In the future, if that family comes to try and harass you again, just give me a call and I’ll get someone to come over and help you since I work close by. All the business owners here are renting stores from me, so I’m just protecting my tenants.”

Duncan said frankly, as if he really had no other motive for doing so and that it was entirely for his renters’ benefit.

Liberty smiled and said, “Thank you, Mr. Lewis. Since the last time you brought your people over to help me chase off Mrs. Brown and her daughter, they haven’t appeared again in the past few days.”

Hank had probably chased that trashy older sister of his back home too.

Liberty saw Duncan off as he got into his car and quickly drove away.

When he returned to the Lewis family residence, Duncan noticed there was a car he had never seen before parked in his home. As he got out of his car, he asked the employee who came out to greet him, ” Whose car is that?”

“That’s Ms. Harmon’s car.”
