    Chapter 1438


    Lily held her cup and took a sip of coffee elegantly. After that, she smiled at Duncan and said, ” You’re


    such an honest person. Your words do hurt my pride.


    “Can you tell me why you fell in love with Liberty? She’s divorced and has a three–year–old son. She


    isn’t even on equal social status as you. I just wish to know how I lost so I can ovee my


    shorings…”


    “To be honest, I have no idea either. I didn’t even know I had romantic feelings for Liberty. I only


    realized I had unconsciously developed those feelings after the panic, fear, and heartache I felt after


    she got hurt.


    “I don’t care that she’s divorced. I don’t mind that she has a son too. I like Sonny. As for social status…


    I don’t care about it. However, I won’t confess for now to not make her feel pressured. I’m willing to wait


    for her for two to three years and confess to her after her career takes off.”


    Duncan thought he would have higher chances of seeding if he confessed to Liberty after her


    business flourished.


    It was because Liberty would have be a confident and strong woman by that time.


    Lily gazed at Duncan with shock and regret.


    She thought she could still try and strive for a chance. However, upon hearing Duncan’s words, she


    thought of giving up trying. The thoughts he had were entirely out of consideration for Liberty. When a


    man considered so much for a woman, it could only mean that he had deeply fallen in love. with her.


    Duncan was thirty–six. Many at his age already had a child or two, so he could be considered a ”


    leftover man“. Nevertheless, he was willing to wait for Liberty for a few years not to marry her but to


    confess to her.


    It was uncertain whether Liberty would ept him if he confessed after she became sessful. Even if


    he could win her over in the end, it would probably take some time, which could range from half a year


    to one year at least, or three to five years at most.


    Duncan was willing to wait anyway.


    “I’m sorry, Ms. Harmon.”


    Duncan said apologetically, “Your time was wasted because of my mother’s fondness for you.”


    Lily drank her coffee again. After some time, she said, “You didn’t waste my time, Duncan. I traveled to


    Wiltspoon on a business trip. I’m here to survey the market and work with mega- corporations in


    Willspoon.


    “I came here for business, but I stayed in your house because of the friendship between Mrs. Lewis


    and my mom. I’m reuniting with Mrs. Lewis in my mom’s stead. I lived in your house. because of our


    parents‘ rtionship, not because of you. You didn’t waste my time. I’ll return after sessfully


    negotiating a deal with the business tycoons of Wiltspoon.


    “You don’t have to feel sorry for me. You didn’t do me any wrong.”


    After a moment of silence, Duncan said, “No wonder my mom likes you so much, Ms. Harmon. You’re


    truly a consideratedy.”


    Lily smiled confidently and said, “I think I’m outstanding too. I admit that I wanted to develop our


    rtionship to being a couple and even husband and wife. I admire you, but you already have


    someone you like. Let’s just be business partners in the future.


    “I’ve lost, and I ept it. You’ve spent a lot of time with Liberty since long ago. I was the one who came


    afterward. Timing was just not on my side. I think you would’ve fallen in love with me if I hade here


    before you met Liberty.”


    Lily epted that she could not gain Duncan’s fancy, but she also felt regretful.


    There were few men whom she would admire and be willing to marry.


    She was satisfied with Duncan, but sadly, her feelings were not reciprocated. They were not fated to


    be.


    Both of them did not like to force things.


    Duncan did not reply.


    There were no ifs.


    There was no “if only I had known earlier.”


    His feelings for Liberty were unexpected, even to himself.

    It was surprising.


    “I’ll still live in your house, Duncan. I’ll also pretend in front of Mrs. Lewis and make her think I’m still


    trying my best to woo you. I already told her not to meddle in our affairs.”


    If Lily backed out immediately, Mrs. Lewis would definitely do something.
