Cupid's Arrow Hit On Me novel (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 1164

“I was up late today.”

Duncan lied. He did not tell Liberty that he had breakfast at his buddy’s place and it was just not quite enough.

The loving couple had him lose his appetite, but now that they were out of sight, the hunger caught up to him, so Duncan had to drop by Liberty’s diner to fill his belly.

Seeing that Duncan was showing her son the ropes in the middle of breakfast, Liberty drew close, sat next to her son, and said, “I’ll help you, Sonny.”

She picked up the assembly instruction for a look and stared at the pile of bricks, feeling a headache coming.

Oops. It seemed Lego bricks were not quite her thing.

Serenity was good at it though. She was nifty with her hands at crafting, so Lego bricks were not a problem for her.

With a customer entering the diner, Liberty put down the assembly instruction and told her son, “Take your time, Sonny. I’ll be right with you.”

“Mom, you don’t know how to do it, but Dunc does.”

Sonny was attached to Duncan when they assembled Lego bricks together as Duncan had a knack for it.

“Do you want to come with me later? You can assemble the bricks over at my place, and I can teach you if you get stuck.”

Sonny pondered the offer before asking, “Will my mom go too?”

“Your mom is busy, so she can’t come along.”

Sonny declined. “I won’t go if Mom doesn’t go.”

Running his fingers along the little man’s hair with affection, Duncan said to Liberty, “Sonny has his guard up.”

Liberty smiled.

A while later, Duncan finally ate his fill. Although he was tempted to stay and help Sonny build a robot, his schedule was packed.

He told his secretary to push his itinerary into the afternoons so he could spend a bit of time at Liberty’s diner in the mornings.
