Why doesn't “Would he suspect that they were deceiving him?” use the second "would" as in “If I lived alone, I would like to have something that would be completely mine”?

Question

Answer

That second 'would' in the second sentence is unnecessary, and even sounds strange. 'If I lived alone, I'd like to have something that was completely mine' is better (correct and more natural).
