Ainsley finished drinking a bowl of soup, put down the soup bowl, took out a tissue, wiped her mouth,and said to her son in a warm voice, “Son, you go upstairs and have a rest.” You have to get up earlyfor school tomorrow.”

Zayn was very sensible; he knew what his mother wanted to say and didn’t want him to know.

He got up, said good night to his grandparents and mother, and went upstairs.

Ainsley watched Zayn go upstairs. When his figure disappeared on the stairs, she said softly to herparents-in-law, “Dad, Mom, I know you are all doing it for Zayn and me, but the good men in Wiltspoonare much younger than me and unmarried.” Besides those boys, there is another one who is quitesuitable for me. He is a few years older than me and has not yet entered into marriage. He is verygood, but his appearance is disfiguring. At first glance, you will replace him a bit scary.

But he has his own company, is worth tens of billions, is richer than our family, and has a goodcharacter, so he won’t miss our family’s property.”

The parents-in-law looked at each other, and the mother-in-law immediately asked, “Who is it? I knowhim, right?”

“Both my parents know him. He is the fourth young master of the Lewis family and the boss of Lewis &Co., Duncan Lewis.”

In-laws: “Duncan Lewis!”

Her mother-in-law immediately objected: “After Duncan was in a car accident, his legs were disabled.Although he is undergoing rehabilitation, who knows when he will recover? The scar on his face is tooscary; it will scare Zayn.

Duncan’s conditions and character are quite good, but as you said, he is disabled now and is in awheelchair. You recruit a man to come back, mainly for you to rely on and to take care of you and yourson. I’m not asking you to take care of him.

Duncan simply cannot live without someone, and he needs someone to take care of him at all times.Duncan also likes Liberty. This is something everyone in Wiltspoon knows. If he had a car accident, itwould be because of Liberty.

Duncan, Josh, and Zachary are all good buddies. They all agree that individuals who share similarinterests tend to form strong bonds. Josh and Zachary are dedicated to their relationships. These aremen who love their wives. Duncan will also be such a man. He already loves Liberty. Once he falls inlove with Liberty, he won’t choose any other woman.

The two of them have already confirmed their relationship. If you like Duncan, aren’t you going tocompete with Liberty or even be the third party in someone else’s relationship? Ainsley, besidesDuncan, isn’t there anyone suitable?”

Both parents-in-law opposed Ainsley and Duncan being together.

It was unknown whether Duncan was willing to be with Ainsley.

However, people would refer to Ainsley as a mistress as long as she pursued Duncan.

They didn’t want their daughter-in-law to become someone else’s mistress. That would have a hugenegative impact on the company’s reputation. Additionally, they would become hesitant to socialize,and others might reprimand their grandson as a result.

Ainsley sighed and said, “Except for Duncan, I haven’t met the right person yet. No matter how goodthe others are, they are just trying to make money for our family. How can I have the courage to

associate with them? I am a widow with a son, so it is not easy to replace one. Many people despisewomen who remarry with a son. It would be easier to remarry with a daughter.”

No matter how powerful she was, she was a widow in the eyes of others.

It is always said that men and women are equal, but in fact, in real society, there is always a bit ofprejudice against women.

Ainsley rejected the pursuit of many men who came for her money, and they went around slanderingher reputation, saying that she had kept so many beauties in private and that changing beauties waslike changing clothes.

She also said that her husband died at a young age and was k!lled by her. She claimed to be herhusband’s slave and threatened to kill anyone who married her.
