Chapter 1683
Married at First Sight
Grandma May stared at Duncan. âWhat? Did you lose all your confidence now that youâre lying here, so youâre pushing Liberty away?â
Before Duncan could answer, Grandma May said, âWho do you think you are to Liberty that your can make arrangements for her? You should at least bring her into your world first before. you have a chance to push her away.
âI bet you havenât even held her hands. You havenât even started a relationship with her, so what makes you think you can arrange her life for her?
âDoes it hurt here?â
Grandma May pressed on Duncanâs injured leg with a little force.
âOuch! Nana, it hurts!â
Duncan was a tough guy, but he was now in so much pain that he broke out in cold sweat.
He had been enduring the pain and did not make a sound.
However, he could let down his guard in front of Grandma May.
âItâs good that you can feel the pain. It proves that the nerves in your legs arenât dead, so you wonât be paralyzed. Of course, itâll take a long time for you to get back to normal, but after youâre discharged from the hospital, you can find a rehabilitation center and work hard on your recovery. I believe that one day, youâll be able to run and walk just as you used to before.â
Duncan said in a sad voice, âNana, Iâm afraid Iâll be bound to a wheelchair for the rest of my life.â
âThe doctors donât even dare say that youâll be wheelchairâbound. Are you worried that youâll drag Liberty down if youâre disabled? Is that why you refuse to see Liberty and even Zack?
âYou even said those mean things to Liberty. You didnât get Libertyâs heart in the first place, yet you said those stupid things to make her feel bad. Are you really planning to give up on her?
âIâve been helping my grandsons to find prospective wives, and during the search process, I came across some young men who are quite decent. If I had any granddaughters, I wouldâve paired my granddaughter with one of them.
âIf you really think you can give up at this point, then Iâll set Liberty up with one of the men. Heâs also divorced and has no children. He was divorced because he was too busy to spend time with. his wife when he first started his business. So, his wife cheated on him and they eventually divorced.
âNow that his business is stable, he has some time to date. I think heâs quite suitable for Liberty since heâs also a divorcee. So, thereâs no need to worry that heâll dislike Liberty for being divorced.â
Duncanâs face was as white as paper when he heard what Grandma May said.
He bit his lower lip tightly and did not speak.
Seeing his face, Grandma May knew that Duncan could not let go of Liberty. He was just injured and worried that he would be bound in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, so he said those harsh words to push Liberty away.
What a fool!
Duncan was not even in a relationship with Liberty, so how could he push Liberty away?
He also had no right to meddle in Libertyâs future.
After a while, Duncan said with difficulty, âNana, how old is that man? Although Liberty is divorced and has a child, sheâs still young and in her early thirties. If the man is too old, heâs not suitable for Liberty.â
âThat man is just a little older than you. Heâs maybe ten to twelve years older than Liberty. I think a larger age gap will make him appreciate her more.
Duncanâs face flushed as he was anxious. âNana, heâs too old!â
âWhat? Are you nervous and worried? Since you canât let go of her, donât think about giving up. Take good care of your health and focus on your rehab.â
Duncan was speechless.
âDuncan, I believe youâll recover as long as you donât give up on yourself.â
Duncan did not speak.
He did not know if he could endure the pain during rehabilitation after being discharged from the hospital.
âRest well. I wonât bother you anymore.â
Duncan was in a poor mental state, so Grandma May felt distressed and did not want to disturb
