Chapter 1405
Married at First Sight
âWhatâs wrong with me being here to watch over Liberty? How does it affect you? Who are you to Liberty? Is it your place to influence my decision? You donât need to care about how Liberty is doing Itâs your familyâyour awesome sisterâinâlawâthat caused her to be lying there now!â Duncan said to Chelsea.
âJessica is a spiteful woman. I never considered her as my sisterâinâlaw, and I only recognize Liberty as that.â
âHah!â
Duncan said sarcastically, âHave you forgotten what you did to Liberty back then, Mrs. Repton? Liberty needs rest, and your family isnât welcome here, so please leave now!â
Duncan gestured to the Yorksâ bodyguards to shoo Chelsea, her parents, and George.
The Browns were the most bizarre and outrageous people he had ever met.
Chelsea did not get to see Liberty. Duncan was standing in the doorway, so she did not even have a chance to get close.
The Yorkâs bodyguards came to shoo her, so her parents pulled her away.
In Duncanâs words, Liberty was lying there at the moment because of their family.
After the Browns left, Duncan looked at Liberty again through the wardâs window.
âLiberty, donât worry. Iâll help you teach them a lesson if they dare bully and pester you again. You must also be firm and donât be fooled by their sweet words. Theyâre now bent on getting you and Hank to remarry because youâre capable of earning money now and your sister is married to a rich family. They only want to benefit from you.â
Duncan said many things to Liberty.
Originally, he agreed with Zachary and Serenity that they would split the night watch.
However, he could not leave and kept watch throughout the night.
Zachary wanted his beloved wife to rest well, to begin with, so he secretly turned off her alarm.
Duncan stayed awake until dawn and turned haggard overnight.
âLiberty, itâs almost daytime. Do you think the sun will be up today? Usually, youâll already be busy working at your breakfast store at this time. I like to eat your breakfast and watch your confident and busy figure.
âLiberty, you have to wake up soon and stop sleeping. Weâre all worried about youâso worried about you.
âLiberty, can you hear me? Itâs okay if you canât hear me now. Iâll tell you whatever you want me to say when you wake up.â
Liberty could not hear Duncan at the moment.
She was still in the dark, unable to find the light. She was anxious and wanted to break out of the darkness to save her child.
All of a sudden, a faint light appeared in front of her. She immediately followed the light.
âLib, Libâ¦â
Liberty heard the familiar voices that were long embedded deep in her memories.
It was her parents!
She stopped, turned around, and actually saw her parents who had passed away sixteen years ago.
âDad, Mom.â
Liberty was excited to see her parents. She quickly ran toward them.
âDad, Mom, youâre back, youâre back. Youâre finally back. Seren and I have missed you so much.â
Liberty buried herself in her motherâs arms and cried like a child.
âLib, why are you here? This isnât the place for you to come. You should go back.â
Libertyâs mom embraced her and spoke gently, but her words were the cruelest to her.
She finally saw her parents, but her mom wanted her to leave.
Liberty did not want to leave.
She wanted to be with her parents!
When Libertyâs parents passed away, she was the elder sister and was only fifteen. She braced herself to take care of her younger sister, but in fact, she wanted to rely on someone too and missed her parents very much. Liberty dreamed of her parents and had woken up many times. deep into the night when her tears wet her pillowcase.
Even after Liberty grew up and worked, every year on Motherâs Day and Fatherâs Day, she saw that others could get together with their parents or at least give them a phone call. On the other hand, she and her sister could only rely on their memories, thinking about their parentsâ voices and smiles.
One time, Liberty secretly cried in the office and was discovered by a coworker. Her coworker was startled and asked her what was wrong, and she said she missed her parents.
