Cupid's Arrow hit me hard! novel Chapter 1318

Chapter 1318

Lily agreed. “I’m like that too. I only talk about work while I’m at work, and no talking shop while I’m resting.

“Duncan, can I ask you some questions?”

Duncan replied, “Go ahead.”

“Our parents want us to be a couple, and I’m quite pleased with you. You can say that I like you very much, but it’s definitely too early to say that I love you. However, I believe I will be able to fall in love with you with time.”

In Lily’s eyes, Duncan was her target.

She liked him and wanted to conquer him, but when it came to love… Even she did not believe she loved him now, let alone Duncan.

There was no such thing as love at first sight when it came to them.

“However, you keep running away from me. Is it because I’m not good enough? Or do you have another person in your heart?”

Duncan did not expect Lily to be so blunt about it.

She did not hide anything or beat around the bush. Instead, she asked him directly. This character of hers was quite suitable as a friend.

He looked at Lily. For the first time, he looked at her closely.

He had to admit that she was beautiful and excellent in all aspects. Even someone as picky as his mother was incredibly satisfied with Lily. That was because Lily’s conditions were good.

They were both from affluent families. Although they live in different cities, transportation was well–developed now. Even if they were not in the same city, it was not a big problem for two rich families to join in marriage.

For example, the Johnson family from Annenburg and the Lafayette family from Meadspring came together in marriage. Annenburg and Meadspring were very far from each other.

Lily was smart and felt that the conditions Duncan put forward were a perfect match for Liberty, but she did not point it out.

Duncan went to All You Can Eat for breakfast every day and was exceptionally kind to Liberty’s son, but there was nothing wrong with that. He probably would not admit it himself that he took a fancy to Liberty.

“Both you and I are busy with work, but if we’re willing to find time to take care of our family, I believe we can do it. If we get together like both our parents want, I’ll definitely take care of my small family with care. However, it’ll be our home, so you also have to take care of it.”

Duncan replied. “We’re not together yet…”

“I was just making an analogy. Do you think I’m right? If you only want the woman to take care of the family while you enjoy yourself without making an effort, we’ll end it here. We will only remain friends and business partners.”

What Lily wanted was mutual love, not unconditional effort from just one party.

“You’re right, Ms. Harmon. I’m not the kind of person who only cares about enjoying myself and not making the effort to care for my family. Both the man and woman have to work together for a marriage to last. Only then will the couple remain happy.”
