Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1188
Jessica responded, “It wasn’t easy for your parents to raise you, but it was easy for mine to raise me? On what basis are you
asking me to tolerate them? Your mom never raised me, and she always targets me. She says that I’m not as good as Liberty
and keeps comparing me to her. Am I not allowed to be mad?
“She always tells me how good Liberty is and how bad I am. She says that I don’t know how to live and always order takeouts
instead of cooking at home. I’m usually busy too. She doesn’t cook even though she has nothing to do at home, and she expects
me to cook for her when I’m home. Isn’t that bullying?
“When I first went to your house, your mom treated me very well, and so did your sister. I only kept talking about Liberty to your
sister and mom because I thought she was bad at handling her relationship with your mom. Now, I realize that they’re just too
good at acting and managed to fool me as well.”
What was more, Jessica got herself into this situation herself.
“So much for thinking that I was different. In the end...”
The treatments given to her as a wife and a lover were different.
“And you, you used to be obedient to me. What about now?”
Hank coaxed her, “Am I not now? Back then, I split everything evenly with Liberty. Sonny’s milk powder cost 350 dollars, but I
only gave her 175 dollars, which was my share. I was calculative about everything with her.
“As soon as we got married, I gave you full financial power. Is that not enough? I also added your name to the house deed. I
gave you my heart.”
Hank could not stop halfway now.
After all, he and Jessica had just gotten their marriage license and had not held their wedding. He could not divorce her, could
he?
Besides, he had feelings for Jessica. She was several years younger than him and was still very young. His feelings for her were
still fresh.
Did Hank regret it?

Of course, he did, but he dared not let Jessica know it.
He thought he paid a huge price when he and Liberty divorced.
Had he known that he would be in this situation, he would not have divorced.
Unfortunately, Liberty insisted on divorcing after knowing that he cheated on her. She did not give him a chance to redeem
himself.
Now, Hank’s remarriage was a mess.
On the other hand, Liberty was living a better life after their divorce. Not only did she open a breakfast shop, but she also
succeeded in losing weight. Additionally, Duncan–a CEO- was pursuing her...
Her life seemed to have become more wonderful.
Unfortunately, it had nothing to do with Hank.
Hank felt uncomfortable thinking that Liberty might become a missus of the Lewises after marrying into the family.
On second thought, he felt that it was impossible.
The Lewises were a top–class wealthy family. Even though Duncan was disfigured and slightly old, it would still be his first
marriage. Presumably, the elders in his family would not agree to him marrying a divorcee like Liberty.
Furthermore, Liberty did not have feelings for Duncan that way.
Hank understood Liberty as they had known each other for over a decade.
He could tell that Liberty did not have romantic feelings for Duncan.
“My mom keeps comparing you to Liberty to infuriate you on purpose. Just ignore her. I told her to not bring up Liberty in front of
you anymore.”
Hank and Liberty divorced because of him, but it was also partly because of his mother and sister.
“Zachary took revenge on us and made us lose our jobs. If we hadn’t lost our jobs, my mom would show off in front of Liberty.
Honey, I’m going to be an Uber driver in two days to earn money. Don’t worry, I’ll treat you well and let you live a good life now

that you’re married to me.”
Under his coaxing and persuasion, Jessica’s anger subsided.
