Chapter 1040

“When Lily needs help with her stuff, you should help her out too. Fran and I have been good friends
for many years now. Although we haven’t met each other in about twenty years, we’ve never stopped
talking to each other.”

Mrs. Lewis’s intention to matchmake Lily and Duncan was exceedingly obvious.

Lily’s gaze toward Duncan contained no fear either. In her opinion, the scar on Duncan’s face was
terrifying, but all he needed was to get some plastic surgery done to remove the scar and recover his
good looks.

He was an exceptionally handsome man if you look at the side of his face without the scar.

Who had never done an impulsive thing or two when they were young?

She herself had even gotten a tattoo before.

“Mom, I’m very busy.” Duncan said without inflection. “If Ms. Harmon requires my help, I can provide it,
but I really don’t have the time to take her around.

“You’re bored staying at home every day anyway. You can accompany Ms. Harmon yourself and take
her around to help her get familiar with the area,” Duncan said.

He then looked apologetically at Lily and uttered, “I really am very busy, Ms. Harmon.”

“Isn’t it a Sunday tomorrow? You still have to go back to the office?”

“Zachary invited me to his place tomorrow for a barbeque,” Duncan lied.



“Then you can just take Lily with you. You guys only have something to talk about when people of the
same age get together. I’m old now so there’s a generation gap between us.”

Duncan said impassively, “We’re going to Wildridge Manor. Don’t you know what Zachary’s temper is
like? Without his agreement, we invitees aren’t allowed to bring young women over.”

Mrs. Lewis was speechless.

Zachary already had a wife. Was he still that unreasonable?

Mrs. Lewis seriously suspected her son was using Zachary as a shield.

“Mrs. Lewis, it’s fine. I’ll be fine with just your company. Duncan, you can go ahead with your plans,”
Lily said astutely.

She even surreptitiously tugged on Mrs. Lewis’s clothes, hinting to her to stop pressuring Duncan.

“Mom, can we eat? I’m really hungry.”

Duncan changed the topic.

Mrs. Lewis hurriedly instructed the maids to set the table.

Duncan turned and walked toward the dining room.

“Lily, that’s how Duncan is. I hope you won’t take it to heart.”

Lily said, smiling. “No worries, I don’t blame him for it. I came over out of the blue when he already had
things planned. It isn’t good indeed to make him change his plans for me. By the way, when he said
Zachary, did he mean Zachary York? The Wildridge Manor he mentioned is the old York residence.”



Lily was from Bellville, but she did know a little about Wiltspoon’s upper class.

“He is the eldest son of the York family. It’s not surprising that many of you don’t know his given name.
Zachary’s married and has a partner already but he still doesn’t let his friends bring young women to
gatherings at his house.”

Lily asked with gossipy interest, “I heard his wife is an orphan and came from a farming village. How
did he end up marrying her?”

“It was arranged by Old Mrs. York. That Hunt woman is indeed parentless. She does have a sister-they
depended on each other for survival. Oh, right. Mrs. Stone is their aunt. They only found each other last
year and because of that, Mrs. Stone even held a huge banquet and invited us to celebrate the
reunion.”

Mrs. Lewis had the deepest impression of Liberty because Liberty was overweight. When she saw
Liberty at the time, she was utterly disgusted in her heart.

She did not have much of an impression of Serenity, but she knew Zachary doted on Serenity the most.
