Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1669
Liberty thanked Zachary
Zachary said, “We’re family, Liberty. You don’t have to be so courteous.”
He even feared that she would not accept his help.
Luckily, she was rushing to move places and took up his offer.
With her brother–in–law’s assistance, Liberty moved out of her apartment quickly while Zachary left work to accompany Duncan
for drinks.
Aside from Zachary and Serenity, no one knew Liberty’s new address. She did not inform Aunt Audrey either.
Meanwhile, in a hotel’s private room, a table was filled with dishes Duncan ordered along with many bottles of strong liquor.
At that moment, Zachary and Josh were by his side, watching him down one glass of alcohol after another.
“Eat something, Duncan.”
Zachary took some salad for him. Maybe he felt guilty toward his best friend because he had taken his sister–in–law’s side.
He wished he could help Duncan, but his sister–in–law did not love Duncan at all. Moreover, Mrs. Lewis was stubborn in
opposing the relationship.
Zachary had no choice but to respect Liberty’s choice.
“Have some soup too, Duncan. You kept drinking since you came You’ll get drunk easily on an empty stomach. Don’t drink too
much as well. Zachary and I will have to take responsibility if you get alcohol poisoning.”
Josh scooped a bowl of soup for Duncan as he persuaded him to drink less.
“I feel annoyed.”
Duncan took a fork and ate the salad in his bowl. It was the salad Zachary served him.
After two bites of it, he downed another glass of alcohol. It was strong, yet he downed it like it was plain water.

When he lowered his glass and was about to refill it, Zachary stopped him.
“Stop drinking, Duncan. You’ve drunk many glasses. It may feel like nothing now, but the aftereffects of it are strong. You’ll get
drunk soon.”
“I envy you, Zachary.”
Duncan patted Zachary’s shoulder. “I’m really envious of you and Josh. You guys are living better than me”
After a moment of silence, Zachary said to him, “Duncan, my sister–in–law doesn’t wish to have a
relationship with you. She doesn’t have the intention of getting married again now. Just give up. If you continue, you’ll be the one
getting hurt.”
Josh advised Duncan, “That’s right. From what I see, Liberty truly doesn’t have the thought of getting married again. Your wooing
makes her feel troubled, and Mrs. Lewis opposes the relationship. Even your family, the most important people to you, isn’t
supportive of this. You should give up.”
Duncan glanced at Zachary and Josh. He said, “How long have I been wooing Liberty? If it has been eight to ten years and
Liberty still hasn’t accepted me, it’s understandable that you guys are talking me out of it.
“But you two are asking me to give up when I’ve just started. Yes, I know it’ll be a tough journey. but I’ll continue no matter how
hard it is. My mom will compromise sooner or later. As for Liberty, I believe that perseverance brings success. She’ll accept me
one day.”
Zachary watched Duncan. He felt guilty.
Duncan talked to his friends for a long time. After he got drunk, Josh sent him home while Zachary attended an event.
After the event, Zachary returned home and lay on the bed with his wife in his arms. He did not say anything for a long time.
“What’s wrong?” Serenity asked out of concern.
“Has Liberty settled down in the new place?”
“She’s all settled with the help of the people you sent over.”

Zachary buried his face in the side of Serenity’s neck. He rasped, “Seren, I feel guilty toward Duncan. I think he’ll find me and
ask me about it tomorrow. How do you think I should reply?”
“Isn’t Mr. Lewis drunk? If he is, he’ll have a headache when he wakes up tomorrow. He probably won’t look for my sister.”
Serenity hugged her husband. She knew he was in a difficult spot.
“He’ll find me sooner or later. Ah, I don’t know when it’ll end between them. Be it good or bad, we won’t have to be in a dilemma
if everything ends.”
