Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1216
“Okay. Thank you, Mr. Lewis.”
Liberty thanked him politely and added, “We’ll be going now. Goodbye.”
Duncan said, “Drive safe. Bye, Sonny.”
Sonny waved at him. “Bye bye, Dunc.”
Liberty rode her e–bike and left with her son.
Duncan stood where he was and watched the mother and son’s backs fade away. When they were out of sight, he turned back
to his car, started the engine, and went back to his office.
After his car left, the parked a hundred feet behind his car drove off as well.
“Drive ‘faster, Lily. Overtake Duncan’s car and go further ahead to see who that woman is.”
The two did not drive past Duncan after making the U–turn because they were afraid of being discovered by him, so they
stopped not far from where he parked. However, they could not see the woman’s face clearly from that distance.
Mrs. Lewis saw Liberty before, but that was when Liberty was still fat.
Now that Liberty had lost dozens of pounds, Mrs. Lewis could not recognize her anymore.
Furthermore, she only glanced at Liberty a few times during the Stone family banquet. She did not pay attention to Liberty.
Lily hummed.
She stepped on the gas and sped up behind Duncan’s car. She soon overtook his car.
Duncan only saw his mother’s car when it overtook him. However, he did not catch up to say hello to them. There was no need
for him to ask to know that his mother was with Lily. He was afraid Lily would pester him again if he tried to catch up with them.
Lily was someone who made a killing in the business world. When she had her eyes on a man, she pursued him openly and
fearlessly. She was a very bold woman.

Liberty rode a bike, so she was not as fast as a car.
A few minutes later, Lily’s car passed by Liberty.
Mrs. Lewis lowered the window to have a look. She could not see Liberty’s face since she was wearing a helmet, but she saw
Sonny sitting in the children’s seat.
She quickly raised the window again.
Her expression was dark.
“Do you know her, Mrs. Lewis?” Lily asked curiously.
She saw Sonny too.
The woman had a child, which meant she had a husband. Lily’s nervousness disappeared when she realized there was no way
the woman would become her love rival.
Mrs. Lewis said, “If my guess is correct, she’s Liberty Hunt. She’s Mrs. Stone’s niece as well as the Mrs. York’s older sister.
“I’ve seen her before, but she was very fat when we met. I couldn’t help but dislike her when I saw her back then. How could she
neglect herself so much to have gotten so fat? I’d be more surprised if her husband didn’t cheat on her or divorce her.”
Mrs. Lewis did not like Liberty.
Perhaps it was because Liberty made a bad first impression on her.
She felt that Liberty was also to blame for her failed marriage. Liberty did not know how to love herself and ran circles around her
husband and child after marriage. Not only did she not know how to improve herself, but she also did not know how to maintain
her figure either.
During the time of the divorce, Mrs. Lewis estimated that Liberty weighed more than two hundred pounds.
Even if Liberty was tall, she was hideous because she was too fat.
“She’s Mrs. York’s sister? The one who divorced?”

Lily heard Mrs. Lewis talk about the Hunt sisters before, but Mrs. Lewis mentioned Serenity more. After all, Serenity’s status was
different now. She was the missus of the York family. If nothing went wrong, her husband would be the next head of the family.
