Chapter 1591
Liberty was busy until after nine o’clock in the morning. As the number of people eating breakfast reduced, she was able to relax.
Lily chose to enter the diner when Liberty was free.
Seeing her come in, Liberty froze for a moment before she showed a polite smile. “Ms. Harmon.”
“Ms. Hunt, you’re not busy anymore, right?”
“I’m not busy now, but I’m ready to pack up and close the store. Ms. Harmon, what can I do for you?” Liberty and Lily did not
interact much.
Seeing Lily, Liberty thought that it must be because of Duncan.
“Nothing much. I went to Lewis & Co. to sign a contract with Duncan and happened to pass by, so I came in to have a look.
How’s your business going?”
Liberty smiled. “It’s alright. I can still earn some after paying off the rent and workers‘ wages.”
“You make a really good breakfast. Duncan said that he likes to come over for breakfast. Take your time. You’ll get better and
start earning more in the future.”
Making breakfast was hard work because one had to get up early.
Liberty asked Lily to sit down.
She poured Lily a glass of warm water.
Liberty was dressed in ordinary clothes and an apron. She looked like a housewife. Meanwhile, Lily was wearing a women’s suit
that made her look smart and capable. Liberty could tell at a glance that Lily was a woman with a successful career. This was in
stark contrast with her.
Liberty almost felt inferior to Lily.
“Thanks.”
When Liberty put the cup of warm water in front of Lily, Lily thanked her with a smile.
After Liberty sat down, Lilly looked at her.
Liberty did not put on makeup, but her skin was great.
After all, Liberty’s younger sister married into a wealthy family. Liberty also had an aunt who was the matron of a wealthy family,
so Liberty would not be short of good skin care products.
Moreover, Liberty was not too old and was one or two years older than Lily.
Lily felt that Liberty had an honest look that made people feel at ease.
Her smile was also soothing.
Duncan said that he wanted to have a wife and a cozy home. He did not need a business partner.
Perhaps, this was why Duncan liked Liberty.
“I’m leaving Wiltspoon soon.”
Lily spoke first
Liberty asked her, “Ms. Harmon, you’re going back?”
Chapter 154LI
“Yeah. In fact, I’ve already left Wiltspoon. I only came back yesterday because I have to re–sign a contract with Duncan today.
After signing the contract, I’ll have to go back. I have too many things to deal with.”
Liberty said, “Oh.”
Lily was the vice president of Harmon Corporation. She relied on her own capabilities to climb up the corporate ladder to take
this position.
She was a strong and independent career woman.
During her time in Wiltspoon, apart from accompanying Mrs. Lewis and seemingly pursuing Duncan, Lily did not neglect her job.
She negotiated a lot of business deals in Wiltspoon, and almost all of them were successful. Her company signed with many big
businesses and cooperated with many powerful companies in Wiltspoon.
“Duncan is sincere about you,” Lily said suddenly.
Liberty looked at her and did not speak.
She knew that Duncan was sincere with her because a man like him would not fool around with women.
Not to mention, Liberty was Zachary’s sister–in–law. Duncan and Zachary were best friends, so Duncan would not dare fool
around with Liberty either.
“Mrs. Lewis can’t accept you not because you’re not good enough. She’s just... But Duncan is very persistent. Liberty, you’re a
good woman. Although you’ve had a failed marriage, not all men are sc* mbags. You ought to consider Duncan.
“I’m a proud person, and I think that he’s a good man. But unfortunately, he only has eyes for you.”
