Chapter 1697Chapter 1697
Mr. Lewis felt upset listening to his son yelling. Criticisms could no longer leave his mouth.
Duncan was tall and massive. He looked like a rough man.
After having lain in the hospital for over ten days, he had gotten thinner.
People who were concerned about him would feel sad upon seeing his state. He could not stand and
lacked the spirit and vigor he used to have.
Even his gaze had lost its usual sparkle, replaced with despair. The doctor said that Duncan's full
recovery depended on whether he could reignite his confidence and persist in treating his legs and
undergoing physiotherapy.
It would be a long journey.
There was a possibility that he would not make any progress even after time passed, and that could
easily break someone's spirits.
“Darling, stop scolding Duncan.”
Mrs. Lewis persuaded her husband, “It’s my fault. I insisted on feeding him even though he said he
wasn’t hungry.”
She wanted to take all the blame.
Duncan watched his mother and averted his gaze. He could not meet her eyes anymore.
Although his mother had thought he was going to meet Liberty and tried to stop him, which caused his
accident, the bigger blame was on him. He was driving too quickly, so he still rear-ended someoneelse’s vehicle even though he had slammed on the brakes when the unexpected situation occurred.
Duncan was lucky enough that he did not die.
A bodyguard entered. He only dared to walk over after standing still for some time. He asked Duncan
softly, “Mr. Lewis, Mr. Callum is here to visit you.”
He did not dare mention that Zachary had come too.
Callum had not been in Wiltspoon lately. Those who knew nothing would think he had just returned
from a business trip. With the relationship between the Lewises and the Yorks, it was perfectly normal
for Callum to visit Duncan at the hospital.
Duncan said coldly, “I don’t want to meet him.1 don’t wish to see anyone now. Ask him to leave.”
After a moment of silence, the bodyguard said, “Mr. Zachary and his wife are here too.”
“I said I don’t want to meet anybody. I don’t want to see them or face their gazes of sympathy when
they look at me. I don’t need sympathy!”
Duncan exploded in anger at the bodyguard’s words. He threw a tantrum again and shouted at the
bodyguard.
“Duncan.”
Mr. Lewis called him.
Mrs. Lewis quickly told the bodyguard, “Go out and tell Mr. Zachary and Mr. Callum that Duncan isn’t
accepting visitors.”
She exited the ward too.When she saw the York brothers, her tears fell instantly.
“Zack, Callum, I don't know what to do anymore.”
Mrs. Lewis was wiping and choking on her tears.
Serenity passed her some napkins and consoled her, “Mrs. Lewis, Duncan will recover gradually.”
“His mentality has already crumbled. He won’t listen to anything. He keeps saying he’s crippled and
that even sitting up takes a lot of effort. He also said he can no longer walk normally and has lost
confidence.” Tears fell again as Mrs. Lewis spoke.
With Duncan experiencing a breakdown, Mrs. Lewis was also falling apart.
novelbinShe and her husband took care of their son every day. They did not need the help of their maids or
sons to replace them because they blamed themselves for causing Duncan to end up in that state.
Before Duncan recovered, Mrs. Lewis insisted on taking care of him. She would feel better that way.
The York brothers consoled her too.
