Chapter 1233


    After Duncan scared Jessica away, he looked at the closed door and pulled out his phone to call


    Liberty.


    It did not take long for Liberty to ept the call.


    “Why aren’t you open today, Liberty?”


    Duncan came off a bit harsh.


    “Seren and I are off to take care of some stuff in our hometown. I’m closed for the day to resolve the


    ownership issue with our parents‘ home today. What’s the matter?”


    Duncan asked, “Oh. Is it going to be resolved today? Do you need to go to court?”


    He could give a hand if Liberty wanted to take the Hunt family to court.


    “We’re settling it out of court. I got to go, Mr. Lewis. Talk soon.”


    “Sure.”


    Duncan hung up the call.


    Why did he not receive any news about Liberty’s home issue being resolved? She did not tell him


    anything.


    Come to think of it, why would she tell him?


    He was not anybody to her. She had no obligation to talk to him about her personal matters.


    With that in mind, Duncan felt a lot better.


    Since All You Can Eat was not open for business, Duncan had to rush to the office for a meeting on an


    empty stomach.


    Not too long after he left, Lily appeared at the diner.


    Of course, Lily could not see anything since the ce was closed. She still had no idea that Liberty


    owned All You Can Eat.


    She came to deliver homemade breakfast to Duncan.


    Spotting Duncan’s parked vehicle right in front of the diner from afar, Lily pulled up and watched


    Duncan.


    Lily saw Duncan scaring Jessica away.


    She even took a photo of them so Mrs. Lewis could identify who Duncan was talking to.

    Jessica left in a fluster, but she had a quick exchange with Duncan, so it meant that they knew each


    other. Lily was confident at first that she would bag Duncan in no time.


    Despite Mrs. Lewis‘ heads–up, she remained optimistic while being on the lookout for other women


    around Duncan.


    Lily would study and eliminate any potential rivals. By potential rivals, it was any woman who knew


    Duncan and had an interaction with him.


    She would never go for anything that did not guarantee results.


    After Duncan drove off, Lily started the engine and followed him.


    No sooner had Duncan stepped into his office than his secretary knocked on the door.


    “Mr. Lewis, Ms. Harmon is here.”


    Duncan took a seat and said, “Tell her I don’t have time today. I’m going to a meeting. She can look for


    my mom for anything.”


    The secretary was without a word.


    It was toote.


    Ms. Harmon was here and right behind him.


    “I want to talk about a partnership with you. I don’t think Mrs. Lewis can help me with that,” Lily said


    while carrying two food containers into the CEO’s office.


    The secretary tactfully retreated out of the office.


    With Lily entering the office, Duncan cussed his secretary in his mind for informing him toote.


    It was his mother’s fault too. Since his mother brought Lily to stroll around thepany, it was basically


    giving Lily the green light to roam as she pleased.


    s, Mrs. Harmon was a good friend of his mom for decades, so Duncan was not in a position to kick


    Lily out. Besides, Lily had not done anything to cross the line. She was merely visiting hispany and


    proposing a coboration.
