Hank, though able to walk, still appeared somewhat weak and lacked the energy of Duncan.
“Mr. Lewis,” Hank greeted politely.
Duncan nodded and inquired, “Mr. Brown, when did you leave the hospital?”
Chelsea replied, “He was discharged yesterday.”
Duncan expressed relief that Hank had been released from the hospital, noting that Liberty wouldn’t have to take her son to visit him next weekend.
“Mr. Lewis, you always come to see Liberty; why didn’t you go inside?” Chelsea asked.
“Liberty went in to retrieve her things, and after she’s done, we’ll head home together.” Duncan purposely said this in front of the impressive siblings to provoke them.
It had been a year since their divorce, and seeing Liberty’s life improve, the Brown family hoped she would return and cause trouble again, allowing them to indulge in their fantasies.
Without morals, anything was possible.
Duncan recognized this as well.
The Brown family struck him as both humble and invincible.
Hearing Duncan mention going home, he felt he had no right to comment further.
Chelsea, reliant on her younger brother, remained silent, harboring a resentment for weakness.
She yearned to speak out but refrained, fearing her parents’ reprimands when they returned home.
Her parents and younger brother believed that as long as Sonny thrived, Liberty would also prosper, accumulating more wealth that would eventually benefit Sonny.
Since Sonny bore the Brown surname, he was the grandson of their family.
The idea of entrusting everything about Liberty to Sonny brought Mrs. Brown a sense of relief. She even considered that if Liberty had no more children, everything connected to Duncan would be inherited by…
Sonny.
When Sonny rose to become a powerful president with ample wealth, could he really deny his father and grandparents? They needed to foster a close relationship with Sonny to ensure he would always remember his family and allow them to share in the blessings he would bring in the future.

Hank remained silent, and Duncan paid little attention to the group that stood awkwardly together. Of course, Duncan felt no embarrassment himself; it was others who were uncomfortable.
Liberty emerged with her bag in her arms, and this was the scene she encountered.
“Liberty.”
When Chelsea spotted Liberty, she smiled and approached her as if she were a savior.
“Miss Brown, what brings you here?” Liberty asked coldly, her brow slightly furrowed. She glanced at her ex-husband, “Sonny’s dad, have you left the hospital?”
Hank sighed inwardly at his ex-wife’s openness and tolerance when she addressed him. Their divorce had been marked by a bitter fight. However, Liberty never taught their son to think poorly of his father, nor did she instill the notion that Hank was a bad person. Liberty was truly a remarkable woman, a blessed woman.
