Chapter 765
Peering at Liberty who was spilling on the sides despite dropping thirty pounds, Hank snapped out of his thoughts and refused to
take a trip down memory lane.
Serenity bought too many things for them both to carry. They let the mall concierge know before borrowing the shopping cart to
push out of the store.
“Liberty, wait here with Sonny. I’ll drive the car up.”
Serenity’s car was parked in the mall’s underground parking. She needed to drive the car out of the parking lot before they could
load the goods into the car.
“Sure.”
Liberty was fine with the arrangement.
Seeing that his aunt was leaving on her own, Sonny panicked and cried, “Aunt Ser! Aunt Ser!”
Liberty responded, “Aunt Ser is driving over to pick us up, Sonny.”
It gave Sonny the assurance he needed.
He thought his aunt was going to abandon him and his mother here.
Hank and Jessica soon emerged.
Since they too had made a huge purchase, they asked permission from the
concierge to push the cart out of the store.
“Darling, wait for me here. I’ll retrieve the car.
Jessica replied coquettishly, “Of course, sweetheart. Hurry up though. I feel scared to be here by my lonely self.”
Liberty could barf.
Was there a need to flaunt their relationship before her eyes?

“Dad,” Sonny called Hank.
This time, Hank was able to give Sonny a cuddle and play with him for two minutes before putting Sonny back into Liberty’s
shopping cart. He then made his way toward the parking lot.
Jessica was left behind to stare at Liberty, but Liberty did not have time for her. “Liberty. Sonny.”
A familiar voice was heard.
Liberty was surprised to see Duncan here. Once Duncan was near, she asked, “What brings you here, Mr. Lewis?”
The way she saw it, a major CEO like Duncan did not belong in a mall.
He could say the word, and someone would take care of his needs. There was no need for him to come all the way and shop in
a supermarket.
Jessica did not know who Duncan was, but the respect Liberty had for Duncan in addressing him and a quick glance at Duncan’s
Porsche car keys was enough evidence that the man was rich. Pricking her ears, Jessica eavesdropped on their conversation.
She thought to herself, ‘How did Liberty know such a wealthy man?‘
Did Mrs. Stone introduce them?
Duncan had no impression of ever meeting Jessica, but he could feel the burn of her stare. He looked over, only to find Jessica
twirling her hair and smiling at him. Jessica believed she was presenting her most charming side to him.
He merely took a glance at Jessica before turning his attention back to Liberty and Sonny.
“I was driving by when I saw you at the entrance of the mall. I see you bought a lot of stuff. Are you taking these home? Do you
need a ride?”
Duncan had a keen sight.
He caught sight of Liberty and her son while driving by.
Liberty was speechless.
Why did she always run into Duncan while he was behind the wheel every time she went out?

It was a good thing she was standing two hundred meters away from the road. Otherwise, her shopping cart would probably put
a dent in Duncan’s car which was parked by the roadside.
Duncan was traumatized by Liberty causing damages to two of his cars. Similarly, Liberty had nightmares thinking back.
“Thank you, Mr. Lewis, but I’m with Seren. Seren bought the items for her in–laws for their meeting over the holidays. Seren went
to get her car in the mall’s parking lot. She should be here any minute.”
Duncan’s eyes flickered. Was Zachary taking Serenity home for Christmas and New Year?
Would that not blow his cover?
