Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2250

“Is Duncan home?”

“Yeah, he’s back. He’s resting in his room.”

Corey drew near. “Why are you up?”

Derek closed the magazine. “You’re worried about our son, and so am I. I can’t get a good night’s rest until Duncan is home. I need to hear the sound of his car to know he’s back before I can sleep.”

“I know, right? Neither of us can sleep until he’s home.”

“Did he say why he was late home tonight? What did you talk to him about?”

Corey sat in bed and pulled the covers while saying, “He was waiting for Liberty. He came home from escorting Liberty home after she was finished with work. Liberty was really busy today, but she won’t work this late anymore. Our son is doing well. Don’t worry. It’s late. Get some sleep. We didn’t talk much, only a little about his future with Liberty.”

Derek waited until his wife was down and cozy before killing the lights. “What’s the point of talking about that? Duncan hasn’t fully recovered yet. He won’t be together with Liberty for fear he would be a burden to her. Let them go at their own pace, and we can watch the magic happen.”

“Yeah, I didn’t say much. I hope we can see Duncan get married and have children before our time on earth is up.”

“We will,” Derek offered his wife comfort.

He carried the same hope that his youngest son and Liberty would find happiness and start a family together.

While the students were in slumberland, Quinn snuck out for supper.

Her daytime was occupied with chaperoning the kids to a competition. She barely had time to explore Wiltspoon.

Quinn observed from afar and saw the motorbikes that caused the car to stop.

Motorbikes were banned citywide, so these riders must have ulterior motives to be on the streets at this hour.

Quinn was a helpful and bold woman. Armed with her fighting skills, she quickened her pace and approached the vehicle that was forced to halt.

After forcing the car to a stop, the motorbike riders made the driver get out of the car. The man sitting on one of the motorbikes brandished a metal baseball bat, threatening to smash the driver’s car if they did not comply.

The driver got out of the vehicle in fear, worried that their car would be trashed.
