Cupid's Arrow Hit On Me novel (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 2654

Serenity appeared in his line of sight.

“Duncan,” Serenity called out gently.

Zachary, who was beside Serenity, took the tray from Duncan and walked inside. Teasingly, he said, “Almost forty and still acting like a child. You even need a child to comfort you. Duncan, don’t you feel embarrassed? I’m embarrassed for you.”

Duncan grunted, “If you think I embarrass you, then don’t come. I didn’t ask you to come and be embarrassed for me.”

Zachary turned and glared at him. “You’re not happy with a few words from me. If you weren’t my buddy and possibly my future brother-in-law, do you think I’d bother with you? As if I have nothing better to do.”

He placed the tray of food on the coffee table and said to Duncan, “Why are you sitting there? Come over and eat!”

Duncan remained silent.

Sonny, sitting on his lap, lifted his little face. His bright, black eyes looked at Duncan, and in a sweet voice, he said, “Dunc, I told Charmaine that I would make sure you eat. If you don’t eat, Charmaine will think I’m just a bad kid who talks big.”

Duncan lowered his head, touching foreheads with Sonny, then hugged him tightly.

“I will listen to you, Sonny. I won’t let you become a bad kid who talks big. You’re a good kid, smart, sensible, and considerate. I like you the most.”

Sonny’s cherubic face showed obvious delight.

He enjoyed receiving compliments.

Soon, Sonny slid down to the floor.

He circled to the back of the wheelchair, and said, “Dunc, I’ll push you to the table.”

“I can do it myself.”

“Before Mom left, she reminded me, Aunt Seren, and Uncle Zak to take good care of Dunc. I promised Mom that I wouldn't cry or make a fuss to go with her. I also promised her that I would take care of Dunc.”
