Chapter 1038

Liberty did not regret it either Duncan frowned. “Then why is he constantly here looking for you? That scumbag treated you like that back then. Every time I see him I feel like giving him a beating and venting some anger for you”

He wants to use Sonny to ease the hostile relationship between us”

Duncan was thoughtful for a moment, and said, “Their main aim is to get Zachary to let them off the hook, night” Don’t forgive them and let them be unemployed forever Once they’ve spent all their savings, we’ll see if Hank and his wife can still continue being as loving to each other as before”

Poor couples had a hundred things to lose Hank and Jessica’s bitter days were still ahead of them.

“Now that your diner is here, you can’t move and neither do you have to move. Just let them watch how your business gets bigger and better every step of the way In the future, you can open a big hotel and become a strong independent woman and a billionaire-we’ll see how frustrated they get.”

Liberty laughed “I want to be able to open a big hotel in the future and become a billionaire too, but we’ll see how business for this diner goes first. My first goal is to earn back the capital I put in to open this diner.

“My second goal is to be able to open a branch.”

Her life goal was to grow her business step by step and see if she could open a big hotel in the future and make her way into the F&B industry.

“When we just got divorced, I wanted to cut all contact with the Browns, but my ex-mother-in-law stalked me and found out I’m opening a diner here as well as where I’m living now. I couldn’t escape them. Then, thinking about it, there’s no way we can really cut all contact since Sonny’s still stuck in the middle.

“Anyway, I won’t let myself be trampled all over by them again. I’m not scared of them coming over periodically to bring attention to their existence.”

Duncan hit the nail on the head and said, “They regret it because you have a rich aunt and also because your sister is Zachary’s wife. They just want to benefit from all that.

“Also, you’ve been working hard since leaving the Browns and living your life fully. God won’t treat hardworking people unfairly. Your life will only get better, more than theirs could ever be.

“Now, they not only regret it, but they’re also envious of you.”

Liberty laughed. “That’s why I say even divorce isn’t scary when you meet a scumbag. The best revenge is to live better than he does.”

Even if she had not found her rich aunt and her sister was not Zachary’s wife, her days would only get better.

“Mr. Lewis, I’m going to prepare dinner for myself and my son. Do you want to eat with us? Though our meals are usually simple.”

“There’s no need. I promised my mother to go back and eat dinner with her tonight. Oh, right. Where have you been the whole day? When I went to work this morning, I didn’t see your shop open. I didn’t see it open when I got off work this afternoon either.”

Duncan had to pass this street every day on his way to and from work to reach his office.

He did not have to pay special attention to know Liberty had not been in the whole day.

“Seren and I made a trip back to our old home. We only just got back this afternoon.”

Duncan made a sound in acknowledgment, and asked with interest, “What did you go back for?”

“To fight for our inheritance and pay our respects to my parents.”

Duncan hummed again. “Did you win?”

He was aware that Liberty’s home had been entirely taken over by her grandparents and they even wanted to pass it down to John.

Liberty was silent for a moment before saying, “We’ll bring the matter to court. They won’t return the house to us in good graces.”

Thinking of how the Hunts had been making so much trouble lately in trying to get money from Zachary and even trying to ruin Zachary and Serenity’s marriage, Duncan said, “That shameless bunch of people. definitely won’t return it to you honestly. There’s no need to be considerate of them. Just sue them and settle the matter through the courts.

“If you need legal aid, just let me know. I have a legal advisor.” Liberty did not need Duncan’s help but still thanked him.
