Chapter 1264
Sonny recalled Jessica’s and his mom’s explanation, but he still could not fully understand the meaning of his mom’s words. He tilted his head and asked, “Dunc, are you married?”
“No, I don’t have a spouse, so I’m not married.”
“Why don’t you have a spouse?”
“Because I don’t have a woman I like.”
Sonny blinked and asked curiously, “You don’t like my mom? Also, my Aunt Ser and Aunt Elisa are very nice. Don’t you like them too?”
Duncan was speechless.
He said in amusement, “Your Aunt Ser is very nice, but she already has your Uncle Zack. I can’t like your Aunt Ser. Your Aunt Elisa is also very good, but I don’t like her that way. She’s not my type.
“As for your mom… I only think of her as my friend. I come over every day because Nike you.”
Sonny seemed to vaguely understand the part where Duncan said he liked him.
He asked instinctively, “Do you want to marry me?”
Duncan froze. “Sonny, we’re both boys, so we can’t get married. Although I don’t have a girlfriend yet, I’m a straight man and only like women.”
“But you said you liked me.”
“The way I like you is different from the way I like women.”
“Isn’t it the same? Why do you like me but not want to marry me?”
Duncan was speechless.
When faced with an innocent child who only had a hundred and one questions, Duncan found himself at a loss for words. He did not know how to explain it to Sonny.
“Sonny, you’re still small. Let’s discuss this when you’re older, okay? Come on, I’ll teach you how to piece the bricks.”
He changed the subject.
Duncan made a mental note to himself–be careful with what was said to Sonny so he would not trap himself like he just did.
Meanwhile, Duncan sat at the cashier’s desk digging into breakfast with Sonny. They looked like father and son.
This scene was witnessed by Lily and Mrs. Lewis.
They deliberately got up early to wait nearby for Duncan’s appearance and to confirm what was going on between him and Liberty.
As they watched the scene inside through the open glass door, Lily’s expression was fine, but Mrs. Lewis looked incredibly displeased.
Judging by how familiar Liberty’s son was with Duncan, she knew that the two met often.
Without her knowledge, Liberty and her son had gotten close to Duncan.
Mrs. Lewis was tempted to go inside.
However, she resisted.
Seeing that Duncan was about to come out, Lily hurriedly drove the car away.
“Lily, go to the office later to find Duncan. It doesn’t matter if you use business or private matters as an excuse. You have to hold onto him. Don’t let any random woman on the streets have the opportunity to steal him away,” Mrs. Lewis instructed.
