Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

“Duncan.” Mrs. Lewis called out.
She was the one who asked Liberty to take care of her son, but she always let Liberty stand outside, she felt sorry for Liberty.
Duncan closed his eyes, as if he didn’t want to talk.
Mrs. Lewis was helpless.
Seeing the cold sweat on her son’s forehead, she felt distressed again, and took a tissue to gently wipe the cold sweat off her
son.
Mrs. Lewis: “Duncan, Mom knows you still like Liberty very much, why are you bothering?”
Duncan still closed his eyes and did not speak.
Treating Liberty like this made him feel sadder than anyone else, the pain was like someone had cut his heart with a knife.
But, now that he was like this, he didn’t want Liberty to see him.
When his limbs were healthy, Liberty didn’t even fall in love with him.
Now that he had lost his legs, Liberty would not fall in love with him, but would sympathize with him.
Seeing that her son didn’t want to talk, Mrs. Lewis didn’t say anything and stopped talking.
After a moment of silence, Mrs. Lewis got up and walked out.
She gently opened the door of the ward, and saw Liberty standing at the door.
“Mrs. Lewis, is Mr. Lewis okay?”
Liberty could hear the movement in the ward standing at the door.
Mrs. Lewis closed the door of the ward again. She pulled Liberty to a chair and sat down. She sighed and said, “Liberty, don’t
argue with him. He is now...he’s fine. We carried him back to the bed after he fell off the bed and out of it.”
Alas!
Duncan’s legs were seriously injured, and if he fell off the bed, his legs would hurt even more.

When Liberty thought of that scene, her heart ached a little.
Liberty: “Mrs. Lewis, I’ll go in and have a look at him.”
Mrs. Lewis pulled Liberty back, “He doesn’t want to see you. If you go in, he will fall off the bed again when he gets agitated.”
Liberty said firmly, “If he fell off the bed, and I cushioned him.”
Mrs. Lewis let go of her hand.
Liberty carried the insulated lunch box and walked back to the door of the ward. Two bodyguards immediately blocked her with
their hands. One of the bodyguards said embarrassingly: “Ms. Liberty, our Fourth Young Master doesn’t want to see you, please
come back.”
“Get out of the way, both of you.” Mrs. Lewis came over, and stretched out her hand to push the two bodyguards. The
bodyguards didn’t dare to fight Mrs. Lewis, so they probably wanted to let the water go. In short, Liberty went in.
When Mr. Lewis saw Liberty coming in, he opened his mouth, but in the end he didn’t speak, and walked out of the ward silently.
Duncan on the bed still had his eyes closed tightly. In fact, he was not asleep. He just pretended to be asleep to avoid his
parents, and he didn’t want to see them feel distressed.
Liberty saw Duncan on the day when the incident happened, and after Duncan knew about her injury, he refused to see her.
She hadn’t seen him for ten days.
Duncan was currently lying on the bed; his face was pale, a cold sweat was still forming on his forehead, he had significantly lost
weight, his beard was untrimmed, and his mouth was covered in stubble.
Liberty walked over gently and put the insulated lunch box on the bedside counter. She sat down on the edge of the bed and
pulled out a tissue, just to wipe the sweat off Duncan’s forehead.
Duncan suddenly opened his eyes. He felt a different breath.
Seeing Liberty sitting by the bed, she was holding a tissue in her hand, as if she wanted to wipe his sweat off, but when he
opened his eyes, her movements froze.
