Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1622
Duncan had no idea what to say.
Sonny was such a stubborn kid.
“Sonny,”
Having caught sight of Duncan and Sonny, Liberty walked toward them.
Still worried, Duncan reminded Sonny once again not to expose their discussion earlier. Sonny seemed to turn a deaf ear to his
words and struggled out of his arms. He slid down and ran toward his mother.
“Mom.”
Once Sonny ran toward Liberty, she held his hand and asked with a smile, “Don’t want to play any longer?”
“No. I want to go home.”
“Alright. Let’s go home.”
Looking at Duncan in front of her, Liberty expressed her gratitude to Duncan calmly. “Mr. Lewis, thank you for looking after Sonny
on my behalf.”
“You’re welcome. I’m more than ready to help you look after him.”
Duncan stretched out his hand to touch the top of Sonny’s head. “Sonny is easy to handle.”
Liberty grinned before she said to Duncan, “Mr. Lewis, we’ll leave first since Sonny wants to go home now.”
Duncan instantly replied, “Let me send you home.”
“It’s fine.”
Liberty carried her son and asked him to bid Duncan goodbye.
“Liberty,”
Duncan wanted to know what Liberty and his mother had talked about..

Liberty just turned around and flashed a smile at him. After that, she walked away with Sonny.
Duncan followed them.
“Mom, I have something to ask you.”
The minute Sonny opened his mouth, Duncan subconsciously wished the ground would swallow him up. Even after Duncan had
explained to Sonny several times, that kid refused to listen to him.
Sonny insisted on telling his mother about it.
“Go ahead.”
Liberty did not know what Duncan had told Sonny. Upon hearing that Sonny wanted to ask her about something, she was quite
curious.
Sonny said, “Mom, Dunc said he wants to join our family and asked for my permission. As a kid, I can’t decide, so I’m asking for
your opinion. If you agree, I’ll give Dunc a reply.”
With that, he yelled at Duncan, “Dunc, hurry up and come here. I’ve helped you ask Mom.”
Duncan was speechless.
How he wished the ground would swallow him up.
Either that or perhaps lightning would strike him so he could avoid such embarrassment?
Liberty did not know how to answer.
She was stunned by her son’s naive question.
What did Duncan ask Sonny when she was not around?
“Dunc, Dunc, hurry up and come over. I’ve asked Mom. Don’t be scared. You can ask Mom again.”
Sonny was super enthusiastic about it.
“Sonny.”

Liberty tapped Sonny’s hand that was waving at Duncan.
Only then did Sonny realize that his mother’s face was contorted. Did this mean that his mother disagreed?
Why?
Dunc was really nice.
“Mom, don’t you agree to have Dunc join our family? He’s very nice. I like him. But he said he wants to be my father. I already
have a father, so I don’t want to be greedy and have two fathers.” Duncan wondered if it would be too late for him to bang himself
against the wall.
