Chapter 3595
– Stone Family Villa.
Duncan arrived at the Stone family home early. His future father-in-law and mother-in-law were heading to Jensburg.
Elisa wanted to join them, but Audrey refused, insisting that her daughter wouldn’t be of any help and that Elisa’s outgoing personality wasn’t suitable for the trip. In reality, Audrey was concerned about potential risks that could endanger the entire family.
Neither Elisa nor Leland could accompany them, and Alice, of course, couldn’t go since her son was still quite young.
Duncan issued several instructions, but he appeared lonely.
Understanding his feelings, Audrey reassured him, saying, “Liberty knows your intentions and won’t hold anything against you. You’re managing well at home; she doesn’t need to worry and can focus on her work.”
“You’re waiting for her to return for the New Year. Didn’t she say that if she gets back in time and the Civil Affairs Bureau is open, she’ll go with you to get the marriage certificate? Even though we haven’t had the wedding yet, it’s still a significant occasion that deserves celebration. Prepare for it, get the marriage certificate, and treat everyone to a meal. I have complete confidence in handing my eldest niece over to you. You’re far more dependable than Hank.”
Duncan appreciated Liberty for who she was, not for her looks.
Even when Liberty was heavier, Duncan had a favorable impression of her. It might not have been love at that time, but he valued her as a person and never judged her based on her weight. He also didn’t mind her past marriage or her children.

He treated Sonny better than his own son.
How many…
Are biological fathers and sons’ relationships not as strong as the one between Duncan and Sonny?
Currently, Hank holds less significance in Sonny’s heart compared to Duncan.
Duncan pursed his lips and spoke to Audrey, “Aunt, I can’t lie and say I’m not worried. I hate feeling useless. After all this time, I still can’t walk like a normal person. When Liberty needed me the most, I wasn’t there for her. I couldn’t do anything.”
He patted his legs and said, “I’ve worked hard in rehabilitation, but I still can’t leave this wheelchair. I want to help Liberty, but if I show up like this, I’ll only hinder her.”
Audrey responded, “Duncan, I understand. It’s okay; Liberty won’t blame you. Trust us and have faith in Liberty.”
Lilian was eating a bunch of grapes while observing them.
Grandpa Jimenez glanced at her several times.
When Lilian finished the grapes and grabbed a handful of melon seeds, Grandpa Jimenez couldn’t help but remark, “Lilian, you haven’t stopped eating since you woke up. You’re like a rabbit, constantly munching.”
“Don’t they feed you at the Johnson house? Is Tim treating you poorly?”
Lilian smiled and replied, “No, they practically adore me. I was born to eat and chat with this mouth. Grandpa Jimenez, you know I love food. We’re all true food enthusiasts.”
Grandpa Jimenez said nothing in response.
Indeed, that group of young people are all food lovers. Even after enjoying all sorts of delicacies, they still cherish food. They aren’t picky; they eat whatever is available.
They say every food has its nutritional value.
“Mrs. Stone, it’s time to leave. If you wait too long, it will be dark when you reach Jensburg, and it will be very cold there. I’m worried Grandpa Jimenez won’t be able to handle it. If you leave now, you’ll arrive around noon when the weather is more pleasant.”
Even though there will be…
As the plane heats up along the way, Grandpa Jimenez will need to disembark, and it will be cold when he does.
