Chapter 3359
Duncan remained silent.
Nevertheless, Emmett continued, “Also, we all know why Liberty went to Jensburg. We've also confirmed that she's a descendant of the Fisher family. If she follows her aunt's arrangements and ousts the current matriarch, then she'll take over the matriarchy.
"If that happens, you'll have to marry into the Fisher family. You must consider this carefully. I know you don't mind becoming a live-in son-in-law for Liberty's sake, but our parents might not be able to accept it."
The Lewises were wealthy. Although Corey and Derek had many sons, none of them had to be a live-in son-in-law.
Moreover, Duncan was not a useless son who lived off his parents' money.
Duncan said, "I've thought of this before, Emmett. I don't mind marrying into the Fisher family. I can do anything to be with Liberty. Mom and Dad might oppose it at first, but I'll talk to them and explain everything. They'll come to accept it and understand me."
After a short silence, Emmett said, "I guess I don't have anything else to say since your mind's set on it."
There was no guarantee that Liberty would allow Duncan to marry into her family.
"It's too early to talk about this. We can discuss this again when Liberty becomes the matriarch after defeating Madam Fisher and Caroline." Although Liberty was Tiara's granddaughter and the legitimate heir, Tiara had passed away decades ago and Belinda had managed the family all this while. Even if Liberty had many forces backing her, she would not be able to climb up the ranks that quickly.
Belinda had become the matriarch with great difficulty. She would never let Liberty snatch the position away from her that easily after being in control for decades.novelbin
Even if Audrey were to go up against Belinda personally, the outcome would be anyone's call.
Duncan said, "It's been decades since the incident. Finding evidence to prove that Madam Fisher had murdered the previous matriarch will be difficult."
Belinda must have eliminated every insider and destroyed all evidence after becoming the matriarch.
No one would leave a trail like a fool.
“No matter what Liberty has to face in the future, I'll stand by her and become her pillar of support.”
"Let us know when you need help. Don't exclude yourself from our family. You'll always be a young master of the Lewises and my younger brother."
Duncan smiled. "Don't worry,
et
Emmett. ll save the courtesy and
ask for your help when I need it I'll ever bug you until you lend me hand when you refuse."
He would not hesitate to accept his brothers' assistance.
Emmett then moved on to ask about how Duncan's company was doing, and they discussed about the market outlook.
When they were done, Emmett said, "I'll head back to my office now. You go on with your work."
Duncan wanted to stand up.

Emmett quickly stopped him and said, "You don't have to see me off when it's inconvenient for you to move around. Sit. No matter how busy you are, remember to keep up with your physiotherapy sessions and recover as soon as possible."
Duncan smiled. “Don't worry. I'm more eager than anybody else to recover fully. I'll do my exercises every day. I won't be seeing you off then. Bye. "I'll work for a bit before fetching Sonny from preschool."
"Isn't Serenity on it?"
Emmett added, "Does Sonny still go to his father's place often?"
"I want to pick Sonny up, so I told Serenity that she doesn't have to. Hank will always be Sonny's biological father. Sonny visits the Browns occasionally, mostly because they miss him. They'll call Liberty and say they want to meet
him. Liberty relays the
to
Serenity, who'll take Sonny to the Browns' place."
Emmett wanted to say something but held his tongue. He simply said, "Come home for dinner when you can."
He then left.
Duncan did not see him off because Emmett told him not to.
