Chapter 1182

Duncan sat on the sofa by himself and asked about what happened.

“It feels like their goal was to abduct Sonny.”

Duncan’s intuition was the same as Serenity’s and Zachary’s.

“Liberty, do you remember what they look like? If you can draw composites of them, I can have someone find them.”

Duncan was no longer a part of the underworld, but his legend remained. If he needed help from those people, they would do anything they could to help him as they used to in the past.

“They were wearing black masks and sunglasses, so I couldn’t see their appearances. I only know that they’re tall and strong. They’re not like ordinary thugs and are more like bodyguards.”

Zachary always had a bunch of bodyguards with him, so Liberty was used to seeing them. They were all tall and powerful, so she felt that the thugs were closer to bodyguards.

Duncan’s eyes darkened. He did not comment on what Liberty said and only asked for more details.

Soon, it was time to eat.

At this time, his mother called again.

Duncan looked at the caller ID but did not answer. He calmly ate with everyone else.

“Duncan, who’s calling you? You’re not answering the call,” Grandma May inquired.

Duncan calmly filled his plate with food. He praised Serenity’s cooking while he ate, and he said enviously, “Zachary is blessed with delicious food.”

“You’re jealous, aren’t you? Find a wife who cooks well too, and you’ll also be blessed with delicious food,” Grandma May teased him. “Pick up the phone. The person has called several times. You might not want to answer it, but your ringtone is too loud and piercing. I’m too old to listen to such noise.”

“Grandma May, I’ll answer it after I’m done eating.”

Duncan remained calm and continued to eat. He occasionally filled Sonny’s plate using the serving utensils and said, “Sonny, you were frightened today. Eat more to get over the shock.”

“I wasn’t frightened,” Sonny retorted seriously.

“Right, right, right, you weren’t frightened. You’re a little man, Sonny. You’re brave and unafraid of anything.”

Duncan’s praise made Sonny raise his head and stick out his chest. His uncle also said that he was a little man.

“Liberty, I think you should send Sonny to learn some form of self–defense.”

“Zachary suggested that too. He said he’d hire a trainer for Sonny so he could learn some punches and kicks.”

The person who answered was Liberty.

Duncan hummed.

Zachary beat him to it.

After all, Zachary was Sonny’s uncle.

After the meal, when Duncan’s phone rang again, he answered it.

“Mom.”

“Mr. Lewis, you’re not taking my call on purpose, right? I’ve called a dozen times, and yet you’re only answering now!”

Mrs. Lewis was infuriated.

Instead of calling his son’s name, she simply called him by his last name.

“Mom, I put my phone on silent during the meeting this afternoon and forgot to unmute it, so I didn’t hear it ring. I took my phone out just now and saw that you called. I was confused why my phone didn’t ring when there were incoming calls.”

Everyone present looked at Duncan.

Who would have thought that he was an expert in telling lies?

He did not blush nor stutter at all.

It was as if what he said was the truth.

Mrs. Lewis was not present, so she could only trust what her son said.
