Chapter 714
Duncan went and gave the pinwheel to Sonny.
Sonny refused to take the pinwheel from him.
“Mr. Lewis, Sonny has a lot of toys already.”
“It’s not much. I was passing by a toy store and thought the pinwheel at the entrance was nice. I bought him one
since the wind’s strong today, and he’d probably enjoy it.”
He dropped by to give Sonny the pinwheel. Otherwise, Duncan would not have come
1. in.
Handing the pinwheel to Liberty, Duncan said, “Hold it for Sonny.”
Since the pinwheel did not cost a lot, Liberty accepted the gift and thanked Duncan on behalf of Sonny before
handing the pinwheel to her son.

Duncan said hesitantly, “Sonny’s scared of me. I gave him the pinwheel, but he didn’t want it. He took it the
moment you gave it to him.”
Serenity replied amid chuckles, “I’m his mother. I have been with him since he was in my womb till today, so I’m his
closest person.”
Duncan laughed in delight. “Sorry, that came out wrong.”
Looking around the shop, he remarked, “You come here every day. What are you busy with?”
The place looked spotless.
However, the shop would be turned upside down anyway when the renovation started next year.
“I bought materials for the renovations. I just tinkled around here, and that’s a day well spent.”
In other words, she was just passing the time.
“I see.” With his gaze falling on Liberty, Duncan teased, “You’re losing weight faster than when I first asked you to
run five rounds at the office.”
“I still run every day, but I put myself on a strict diet, so no sugar and fats for me. I don’t have full meals either. My
weight is dropping now. I lost twenty pounds since I asked Hank for a divorce.”
Duncan believed Liberty looked nicer now that she had shed twenty pounds.
With her height, Liberty needed to drop another eighty pounds to reach the recommended weight.
“That’s good. Keep it up.”
Liberty smiled. It hit her that she bought some fruits and kept them in the shop. She asked, “Would you like some
fruits? I bought them today. Let me get you some.”
“It’s okay. I’m off to a meeting. I should leave you to your work.”
Seeing that Sonny had good fun with the pinwheel, Duncan swiftly gave Sonny a squeeze on the cheek. By the time
Sonny realized it, Duncan had withdrawn his arm.
Sonny sulkily glared at him.

“Sonny, Mr. Lewis is going to work. Say bye–bye.”
With the sneak attack a success, Duncan happily said goodbye to Sonny. Sonny reluctantly waved his arm in
response to Duncan’s friendly goodbye as his mother
insisted.
While exiting Liberty’s shop, Duncan ran into Mrs. Brown who had just gotten out of
the car.
Through the glass window, Mrs. Brown saw Duncan stroking Sonny’s face. He waved and bade Liberty and her son
goodbye before leaving the shop.
Mrs. Brown put her guard up at the sight of Duncan.
Was this man not the boss of Liberty’s previous workplace? Was he pursuing Liberty?
Mrs. Brown could not believe that a divorced woman like Liberty was desirable.
Nevertheless, Mrs. Brown thought she had it figured out when she saw the scar on Duncan’s face. The man had
trouble in the marriage department because of his disfigured looks. Since young, beautiful, and single women
would not want to marry him, the man must be setting his sights on a divorced woman like Liberty.
