Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1437
Hank could not even enter the room even though he had come.
However, laughter could be heard coming from the room when Duncan was inside.
The stark contrast made Hank disappointed.
“Hank,” Mrs. Brown said in dissatisfaction.
“Mr. Lewis is in Liberty’s room, Hank!” Chelsea glared at her brother and reminded him.
“That’s their freedom. What does it have to do with us? Let’s go.”
After speaking, Hank left his parents and sister and walked away.
He did not even pass the flowers he bought to the bodyguard to be brought inside. Instead, he threw the bouquet away in a
nearby trash can.
“Hank, Hank.”
Mrs. Brown went after him.
She glanced at the flowers when she passed by. Ah, the flowers were worth hundreds of dollars. It was wasted just like that by
her wasteful son.
Mr. Brown sighed and left as well.
Only Chelsea remained at the ward’s door. She said to the York family’s bodyguards, “I won’t disturb Liberty as she has to
entertain her guests. I’ll visit her after the guests leave. I’ll wait here.”
As she spoke, she found a seat nearby and sat down.
The bodyguards let her do as she wished so long as she did not barge into the room. They were too lazy to care about her.
She used to bully their missus’s sister so badly. Why was she pretending to be a kind person now?
Half an hour later, Duncan and Lily exited the room.

Chelsea, who had waited for half an hour, stood up. However, she sat down again when she saw Duncan was with Lily. She
even lowered her head and looked at her phone, acting like she did not see Duncan.
Lily did not notice Chelsea’s actions. She asked Duncan, “Why didn’t you stay longer, Duncan?”
Duncan turned to look toward Lily. She smiled and said, “You don’t have to look at me like that, Duncan. I’m being honest. I don’t
mean any sarcasm.”
“Ms. Harmon, let’s find a place to have coffee and talk.”
Lily agreed right away.
Ten minutes later, they entered a cafe.
Duncan ordered an Americano.
Lily ordered a latte. da latte.
“Ms. Harmon, I’m a straightforward person, and I don’t like to beat around the bush. I apologize if the words I’m about to say hurt
your pride.”
Lily faced him calmly. She said with a smile, “You can say whatever you want, Duncan. I’m not a flower in a greenhouse that
can’t stand the battering of the wind and rain.”
“You’re a nice lady, Ms. Harmon. My mom likes you a lot and is trying hard to bring us together. However, I don’t have romantic
feelings for you. My mom must’ve told you about my thoughts too. I hope you don’t waste any more effort on me. Nothing will
come out of it.”
Duncan had told his mother not to hold on to Lily anymore. He would never date her.
