Liberty laughed. “Since you’re my first customer, your meal will be on the house. What would you like to eat, Mr. Lewis?”Duncan said, “No, I’ll pay. It’s your opening day, so you have to earn money. You need to collect money no matter who comes to eat.”Zachary echoed, “Paying for breakfast is pocket change for Duncan. Don’t even think of giving him a discount and only charge him the price as per your menu.”“In that case, thank you for your support.”In his heart, Zachary thought, ‘What’s there to thank? In the future, Duncan might sink his teeth into you and never let you go.’Soon after Duncan entered, there was a stream of customers coming into the store for breakfast.Liberty started getting busy.A new store opening was most likely to attract people to come in and try their food.Liberty’s store had been remodeling for a period of time. The people working in nearby buildings passing by every day were already long aware of All You Can Eat.They felt that the name of the

“Why are there so many flower stands? Who sent them?”Hank was a little jealous.Liberty was just a woman he threw away, and she opened a small breakfast diner with the money she took from him. However, there were long rows of flower stands on the opening day.“There’s no space for my flowers? Then I’ll get a re—”Hank was just about to say that he would get a refund from the flower shop, but Olivia immediately interrupted him. She took the flower stand from his hand and glared at him fiercely, then said to Liberty with a smile, “There’ll be space if you squeeze it in.”She took the flower stand outside and placed it at the spot of the stand that Duncan sent. If not for the fact that Serenity and Zachary, two people who she could not afford to mess with, were present, she would have smashed the flower stands sent by Duncan and thrown them away.Liberty did not want to have a fight with Hank and Olivia on the first day of business, so she turned a blind eye as long as they did not
Chapter 1069
Serenity knew the Brown family too well. She was worried that the Browns and Hunts would come over and cause havoc during the opening of her sister’s new store.The last thing anyone wanted on their store’s opening day was trouble.Serenity asked her husband for help, requesting him to arrange for people to keep watch nearby so they could help deal with any problems as soon as possible.Serenity, who was independent and reluctant to rely on her husband, took the initiative to ask Zachary for help. Zachary was overjoyed and felt that his wife finally thought of him as family.He immediately agreed.In fact, he would have arranged for people to keep watch even without her request. Like Serenity, he was also wary of the Brown and Hunt families causing trouble.When Jessica saw all the bodyguards from the Yorks and Duncan, her madness stopped at once. Then, she looked into the store and saw that there were only Serenity, Zachary, and Elisa.Elisa had ignored her the first time she g

Liberty explained why there were security guards patrolling the street as she served the eggs benedict to Elisa.Serenity did not notice that the security guards were only patrolling half of the street including Liberty’s store. As for the other half of the street, the guards simply looked from afar and did not patrol there.However, the overall security of the street was still heightened with the presence of the guards.Serenity’s beautiful eyes twinkled. She felt that Duncan’s action was because of her sister, but when she saw that Liberty did not seem to be interested at all, there was nothing else she could say. Who knew if Duncan did it for her sister or really for the safety of all his tenants?The store rented by her sister indeed belonged to Duncan.Duncan would pass by here every day to and from work. Since he was friends with Zachary, it was normal for him to look out for Liberty.Duncan did not explicitly say that he was interested in Liberty, so Serenity could only wa

“Our lady is someone who can’t stand to see the Hunt sisters doing whatever they want.”Jessica blinked. It was someone that the Hunt sisters had offended?What did that person want her for?She did not have the ability to suppress and retaliate against the Hunt sisters.“You’ll know once you come with us, Ms. Yates.”Jessica said, “I don’t even know who you are. Who knows what you’ll do to me if I follow you? You’re still wearing masks, so I can’t see what you look like. However, I’ll go with you if you take off your masks and let me take a photo to send to my husband.“That way, you guys won’t get away with it if anything happens to me.”“Our apologies, Ms. Yates, but we can’t take off our masks. If you don’t come with us, our lady will come over to invite you personally. You won’t like it if that happens. Our lady has a bad temper.”“Save your breath and just knock her out,” the other man said impatiently.When Jessica heard this, she immediately turned around and tried to

One of the men waited for her to finish throwing up and handed her a mask.Jessica hurriedly put on the mask, but she could still smell the stench through it. She quickly used her hand to cover her mouth and nose, then followed the two men into the incomplete building.It was only after entering the building and away from the garbage dumps did she lower her hand from her mouth and nose. She looked around to survey the surrounding environment. There was no one living nearby. No one would find out even if she met with misfortune here and her body decomposed.That thought caused another shudder to run down her spine.She did not know who these men were. Since it was the Hunt sisters who offended them, they should find the Hunt sisters instead. Why did they come to her?She was also enemies with the Hunt sisters.“Don’t be afraid, Ms. Yates. I told them to bring you here because I wanted to talk to you about a deal. Let’s work together to get back at Mrs. York.”An unfamiliar woman’

“Sonny... Sonny is still a child. Besides, his custody was given to Liberty. Hank only needs to pay three thousand a month for child support, which will end when Sonny turns eighteen. Hank won’t need to pay if Sonny wants to buy a house or car in the future. He has no way of fighting for the family assets.”“People’s hearts change. The only way you’ll be sure that he won’t compete with your son for the family fortune is if he’s dead.”“But I don’t have a son… I don’t even have a daughter.”“Can’t you give birth to one?”Jessica choked.The other party laughed. “It seems that you’re just slightly morally reprehensible, but you still have humanity in you. I just told you about my plan. I didn’t say anything about killing Sonny.“I want to use Sonny to lure Serenity over. She has a good relationship with her nephew, so I believe she’ll be willing to come and see me alone.”What she wanted was for Serenity to meet her alone.Jessica sighed in relief.She only had the ability to st

However, being busy for a period of time in exchange for peace of mind for the rest of her life was worth it.“It’s been hard on you, Seren.”Zachary kissed her forehead, distressed at how much she was going through because of him.“I asked for it. If I learn well, it’ll serve me for the rest of my life.”Serenity yawned again.She got up early in the morning, so she was sleepy now.“You have to go back to the office in the afternoon too. Your time is much more valuable than ours.”He lost more by sacrificing half his day for her sister’s sake.How would he be willing to make such a sacrifice if he did not love her deeply?Serenity looked at Zachary and reached out to touch his handsome face. Her eyes were filled with emotion. “Babe, how did I manage to marry you? Don’t worry, since you’ve entrusted me with your life, I’ll never let you down. I’ll treat you well for the rest of your life.“My sister is always nagging me to treat you better. It’s as if she’s afraid that I’ll a
