Liberty was still weak and soon fell asleep again.Even Sonny fell asleep in Serenity’s arms.Serenity placed her nephew on the sofa bed and covered him with a thin blanket. When she saw that her sister’s IV fluid was almost finished, she rang the bell to notify the nurse to come and change the IV.After changing the IV drip, Serenity watched for a few more minutes before turning around and quietly walked outside.Zachary pushed the door and entered.He saw Serenity sitting on the sofa in the small lounge, looking dazed.He walked over, sat next to her, and touched her shoulder, asking softly, “What’s wrong? Is Liberty asleep?”“Liberty and Sonny are both asleep.”Serenity leaned on her husband’s shoulder. “Babe.”“Hm?”Serenity just called out to him and did not say anything else.“Did you want to say something to me?” Zachary asked warmly.Serenity wrapped her arms around him and said, “It’s nothing. I just wanted to call you.”Zachary said indulgently, “If you wanted to

Zachary was worried about Serenity after seeing how hard Alice had it during her pregnancy.“I already decided not to pressure myself. I want to go back to being the old Serenity Hunt. I’ll live my own life without caring about what others say.”In the end, she still felt that Zachary’s status put a lot of pressure on her.The gap between them was too large.She hoped that her investment project could make her money.Even if she could not match Zachary, at least there was an advancement on her part.“I’ll go rest for a while.”“Okay.”Zachary accompanied her into the ward and watched her lie down beside Sonny. He looked at Liberty’s IV drip and estimated that it would last another half an hour before the next one. Then, he returned to the small lounge, sat down on the sofa again, and organized his work affairs while it was still early.As Liberty healed in the hospital, Serenity remained by her side almost every day.Zachary went back to the office during the day and would co

After Zachary talked to Duncan, Duncan did not dare visit Liberty on a daily basis. He only visited her twice that week. The first time was the night he had a heart-to-heart talk with Zachary. The second time was that day itself. “Mr. Lewis, Ms. Harmon.”Liberty got up in a hurry when she saw them enter. Duncan put the fruit basket down and handed the bouquet to Liberty. He gazed at her gently and said, “These flowers are for you, Liberty.”“Thank you, Mr. Lewis. You’re too kind.”Liberty accepted the flowers and thanked Duncan. She had been receiving many fruit baskets and bouquets every day. She was a person of minor importance, but she was still the biological sister of Mrs. York and Mrs. Stone’s niece. Therefore, she received many visitors every day. Duncan smiled. His gaze lingered on Liberty for a long time before saying worriedly, “Did the doctor say when you can be discharged?”“I can only leave the hospital after another week.”Duncan nodded. Lily also asked

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 overcome my shortcomings…”“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 succeeding if he confessed to Liberty after her business flourished.

‘How did Serenity conquer such a cold, arrogant man?’ Chelsea criticized inwardly. She would not be able to bear spending time with a man like that. He was too cold!She did not dare look at Zachary anymore. Instead, she smiled and said to Serenity, “Serenity, can I have a few words with you in private?”Serenity asked Chelsea, “What is it that you can’t say right now?”Chelsea took a quick glance at Zachary, then Serenity. Indeed, Serenity was more pleasing to the eye. Chelsea used to treat Serenity meanly and instigate her brother to quarrel with Liberty. It was an indirect way of forcing Serenity to move out. Firstly, it was because she wanted to make space for her children. She had planned to send her children to the middle school in the city. Secondly, Chelsea was jealous of Serenity’s youth and beauty. Liberty was beautiful before she married too. However, she did not bother maintaining it and bloated up like a ball. Her beauty before her marriage was gone. Serenity was
