Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1362
Duncan was speechless.
“Do you really think Lily and I are suited for each other? Don’t you think she’s out for my position and wealth?”
“Lily’s family has a huge business. She’s the vice president of her family’s company, so I doubt she’s after your money. You have
status, but so does she. It’s hard to believe that she’s out for your position and wealth. You two together will only be a union of
power and wealth.”
Liberty gave Duncan a look like he was out of his mind. That question was a bolt out of the blue.
Mrs. Lewis was such a proud lady with high standards. The girl Mrs. Lewis picked for Duncan must be beyond amazing.
“I mean, I might be the better pick out of all the men Lily knows. That’s why she wants to get. together with me. It’s not that she
likes me. I don’t believe she isn’t scared or disgusted by the scar on my face.”
While fixating on his face, Liberty answered with a smile, “Once you fall in love with Ms. Harmon, you’ll wobble your way to get
cosmetic surgery to remove the scar before she even makes that request.”
Duncan replied, “Liberty, can you not say ‘wobble‘... I’m not a penguin.”
Liberty burst into laughter.
She believed Duncan put up his walls and had not put himself out there when it came to women. Duncan was wary and
suspected ill intentions even from an heiress and career woman like Ms. Harmon.
It was likely he had been single thus far due to his distrust toward women.
Someone poor like Liberty could never understand the mind of the wealthy.
“Mom, Dunc.”
Sonny was on the bicycle. He called out to the adults while riding, leaving the pinwheel between the bike handles to spin quickly.
He happily freed a hand to grab the pinwheel, only for the bicycle to flip over when he let go. He fell onto the grass by the road.
“Sonny.”

A bunch of people ran over.
Duncan’s tall build and long legs came in handy as he sprinted ahead of the rest.
He first scooped Sonny up.
The little man took a nasty tumble after falling off his bike. He was frowning and on the verge of tears when Duncan picked him
up.
“Where did you hurt yourself?” Liberty and Serenity anxiously asked as they gathered around the boy.
Sonny turned around and extended his arms to his mother. With Liberty taking over, he pursed his lips and uttered, “Mom, I fell.”
“Let me see where you hurt yourself.”
Liberty put her son down.
The sisters bent down to check Sonny for injuries.
He was unscathed.
The boy had too much fun on the bike and was embarrassed by the first tumble. Hence, the reason tears filled his eyes.
Duncan held Sonny’s bicycle up. The front wheel and basket were crooked from the crash.
“My bicycle is broken.”
Sonny, who managed to pull back the tears, could not stop himself from wailing when he saw the state of his bike.
