Cupid's Arrow hit me hard! novel Chapter 1319

Chapter 1319

Duncan did not like his mother setting him up with girls, but he had to admit that Lily’s words were reasonable.

“After talking about it, I think we share similar views, and you also think I’m excellent. Why don’t we give it a try? If you still can’t fall in love with me, I won’t continue to pester you.”

It was not like Lily had no other suitors.

Duncan was silent.

“Do you have someone you like, Duncan?”

“No.”

Duncan denied that he had someone he liked, but the image of that once–fat figure gradually slimming down flittered in his mind.

He adamantly denied to Zachary and the others that he had any feelings for Liberty.

Why did he suddenly think of her now?

He liked Sonny, not Sonny’s mom.

Duncan snapped back to his senses and hurriedly waved Liberty’s figure out of his mind, not daring to think about her again.

Lily smiled. “Since you don’t have anyone you like, let’s give it a try. If you have someone you like, tell me who she is and I’ll see how I’m inferior to her. I’ll try fighting for you. If I can’t win, I’ll give up.”

She would try her best no matter what she did. If she lost even after trying, she would admit defeat.

There was no shame in admitting defeat since it was like letting herself go. If she refused to admit defeat and stubbornly pestered him, she would be the one getting hurt. It was the same as harming herself.

Duncan said, “I’m too busy to date.”

“It won’t take much of your time. We’ll just go out for meals together, take walks, go on a road trip during the weekends, or watch movies when we’re free.”

However, he would not admit that Lily was his girlfriend.

They were not together yet.

He wondered if Liberty–No, not Liberty. He wondered if Sonny would follow the adults to the banquet today.

Time passed quickly, and evening soon arrived.

Serenity asked her sister again and gave up when Liberty refused firmly. She finally gave up o persuading her sister to come to the banquet.

In Zachary’s hilltop villa, he selected a beautiful but somewhat conservative dress from the wardrobe and handed it to Serenity.

“I told you that Liberty wouldn’t want to go.”

After handing her the gown, he said gently, “You don’t have to be too anxious to pull Liberty in the circle. Just let nature take its course.”
