Duncan’s mother had mentioned Liberty to Lily before.
Lily was most focused on Serenity though, as she wanted to get into Mrs. York’s good graces.
Nevertheless, Duncan was certain that Lily kept an eye on Liberty since Liberty was Mrs. York’s sister.
“I own the space and rent it out,” Duncan added in case Lily thought he was standing up for the restaurant owner.
Lily smiled. “No wonder you have breakfast there. You own the place.”
“I’m full. I can’t eat anymore. Ms. Harmon, thank you for the breakfast, but I don’t need it.”
The last thing Duncan wanted was to take Lily to the office.
Lily uttered with a smile, “I’ll bring it back later. I want to get a tour of your office, Duncan. I didn’t just come to Wiltspoon for this. I’m here to talk business with a few major corporations too.”
The Harmons operated their business on a large scale.
Mrs. Lewis was hoping to have a union with the Harmons while Lily wanted to penetrate Wiltspoon’s market by having business ties with major corporations like Lewis & Co. Not only could Lily bring profit to Harmon Corporation, but she could also bond with Duncan over the business collaboration.
The way she saw it, although Duncan may be a brusque man, he had a delicate side to him. Lily would find her happy-ever-after with Duncan if she could conquer his heart.
Having dwelled in the business world for many years, Lily loved a challenge, and the conquest for Duncan’s heart summoned her interest and gave her great motivation.
Since Lily wanted to visit Lewis & Co. under the guise of a tour, Duncan was not in the position to turn her down. She was the daughter of his mother’s best friend after all.
Duncan got into his car and hit the accelerator, driving away pretty fast.
Lily quickly went in pursuit of his car.
The familiar voice pushed Sonny to stuff all the unassembled Lego bricks back into the box.
By the time Lucas sat next to him, Sonny had packed away all the things. Sonny clung to the box and replied, “Dunc gave me Lego.”
“I want to play with Lego too.”
Lucas put his hand out to grab Sonny’s bricks.
Leaning to one side, Sonny dodged Lucas’s grubby hands. He jumped off the stool and took cover by his mother’s side.
Lucas always took his stuff and picked on him. There was no way Sonny would want to play with Lucas.
Although his mother and aunt’s love and concern helped Sonny move past the trauma at the Reptons’ last year, Sonny had never forgotten about the incident.
