Chapter 1216
Married at First Sight
âOkay. Thank you, Mr. Lewis.â
Liberty thanked him politely and added, âWeâll be going now. Goodbye.â
Duncan said, âDrive safe. Bye, Sonny.â
Sonny waved at him. âBye bye, Dunc.â
Liberty rode her eâbike and left with her son.
Duncan stood where he was and watched the mother and sonâs 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 parked a hundred feet behind his car drove off as well.
âDrive âfaster, Lily. Overtake Duncanâs car and go further ahead to see who that woman is.â
The two did not drive past Duncan after making the Uâturn because they were afraid of being discovered by him, so they stopped not far from where he parked. However, they could not see the womanâs 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 Duncanâs car. She soon overtook his car.
Duncan only saw his motherâs 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, Lilyâs car passed by Liberty.
Mrs. Lewis lowered the window to have a look. She could not see Libertyâs face since she was wearing a helmet, but she saw Sonny sitting in the childrenâs seat.
She quickly raised the window again.
Her expression was dark.
âDo you know her, Mrs. Lewis?â Lily asked curiously.
She saw Sonny too.
The woman had a child, which meant she had a husband. Lilyâs nervousness disappeared when she realized there was no way the woman would become her love rival.
Mrs. Lewis said, âIf my guess is correct, sheâs Liberty Hunt. Sheâs Mrs. Stoneâs niece as well as the Mrs. Yorkâs older sister.
âIâve seen her before, but she was very fat when we met. I couldnât help but dislike her when I saw her back then. How could she neglect herself so much to have gotten so fat? Iâd be more surprised if her husband didnât cheat on her or divorce her.â
Mrs. Lewis did not like Liberty.
Perhaps it was because Liberty made a bad first impression on her.
She felt that Liberty was also to blame for her failed marriage. Liberty did not know how to love herself and ran circles around her husband and child after marriage. Not only did she not know how to improve herself, but she also did not know how to maintain her figure either.
During the time of the divorce, Mrs. Lewis estimated that Liberty weighed more than two hundred pounds.
Even if Liberty was tall, she was hideous because she was too fat.
âSheâs Mrs. Yorkâs sister? The one who divorced?â
Lily heard Mrs. Lewis talk about the Hunt sisters before, but Mrs. Lewis mentioned Serenity more. After all, Serenityâs status was different now. She was the missus of the York family. If nothing went wrong, her husband would be the next head of the family.
