Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 1699

Chapter 1699

After everyone comforted Mrs. Lewis and passed their gifts to the bodyguards to be brought into the ward, Zachary and the others had no choice but to leave the hospital.

Mrs. Lewis saw everyone off to the elevator. She only left after watching them enter.

When she returned to the ward, she stood at the door momentarily before going inside.

Duncan was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling with lifeless eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.

“Has Zachary and the rest left?” Mr. Lewis asked softly.

“They can only leave because Duncan doesn’t want to meet them.”

Mrs. Lewis sighed. She walked to the bedside and sat down, looking at her son. After some time, she said gently, “Duncan, everyone is here to see you because they’re concerned about you and not pitying you. Stop overthinking, okay?”

Duncan closed his eyes. Obviously, he did not want to listen to his mother talking.

Mrs. Lewis’s heart ached.

After Duncan’s grandmother had passed away, her son’s life went back on track He stopped talking about being a gangster and borrowed a huge amount of money from Zachary to start his own business. It was tough at first, but he managed to pull through. Lewis & Co. had transformed into what it was that day after over ten years.

Duncan's personal net worth had also reached ten billion dollars. He was a proud and successful person who looked cool even when walking.

If it were not for his romantic relationship... He would still have been the cool Mr. Duncan.

It was all her fault as a mother. She forced her son to stop pursuing Liberty by threatening to break all ties with him, which caused her son to get into the accident.

Since their son had fallen asleep, it would be good for his wife to go out to take a stroll and relax.

Mrs. Lewis watched her sleeping son for a while. Afterward, she took her bag from the bedside table and left the ward with it.

She was not going on a walk. Instead, she went to All You Can Eat to look for Liberty.

The store was not busy when Mrs. Lewis arrived. After workers from the graveyard shift had taken breakfast, rarely any other customers would come and eat. Things would get busy again in the afternoon if the store were kept open.

Some people did not like eating heavy meals in the afternoon. They preferred light breakfast food or some simple ravioli.

In the past, All You Can Eat only served breakfast. They would begin packing and cleaning up after ten in the morning and get off work.

Lately, Liberty had been keeping the store open for the entire day. She would serve customers when they came. When there was no business, she would prepare the ravioli or nap in the diner.
