Chapter 509
“Do you think we’d turn out fine if Serenity’s husband was related to the wealthiest Yorks? Your sister–in–law would’ve trampled
all over us with the help of Mr. York.”
Thinking about the bad things he had done, Hank believed Jessica had a point. Hence, he quickly let go of the matter.
Mr. York was way up there while Serenity was not even worth the mention. She was not
blessed in life to become Mr. York’s wife.
The pair were lovey–dovey as they walked out of the hotel. Hank and Jessica came across Liberty at the hotel entrance.
Liberty was alone.
While Sonny was asleep, Liberty left Mrs. Lane at home to look after Sonny, so she could wait for Hank and Jessica here.
Liberty only lay in wait here for them because she deduced through the information and evidence provided by Zachary that Hank
often brought Jessica to dine at the Wilt spoon Hotel.
Although she had a falling out with Hank, it still hurt Liberty badly. After tying the knot with Hank, Liberty gave him a son, ran the
household, and often attended to the needs of his parents and sister’s family. Yet, Hank would accuse her of financial
dependence, spending money recklessly, and doing nothing at home.
Hank called her useless and a glutton because Liberty frequently asked Serenity for help even though she was only looking after
a child.
Liberty would not be able to produce enough milk if she did not consume more food. Hank criticized her for trying to starve their
son. Sonny was breastfed until a year old.
Hank was stingy toward his wife. On the rare occasion of a good mood, he would take her out to the food trucks. The place could
fill her belly without costing a lot.
However, Hank would often bring Jessica to dine at the Wiltspoon Hotel, check on Jessica’s well–being, send gifts, and treat her
like a princess.
Seeing that it was Liberty, Jessica tauntingly clung onto Hank’s arm.
Liberty did not miss her provoking gesture.
Hank stopped in his tracks before leading Jessica to draw close to Liberty. He asked coldly, What are you doing here? Where’s
Sonny? Didn’t you say that Sonny couldn’t leave your side since he’s scared stiff?
“Your sister demanded fifty thousand dollars from my sister as compensation for Sonny’s mental anguish. What? Are you
passing the buck on Sonny now that you have the money?
*L
You‘re just using Sonny as an excuse to ask for more money, right?”
Solemnity was written all over Liberty’s eyes.
Raising her hand, she gave Hank a slap on the cheek.
Smack!
A vivid handprint emerged on Hank‘s face.
“Are you even human, Hank?”
Liberty resentfully had her finger up at Hank‘s nose as she yelled, “You don‘t even feel sorry that your son was beaten up by your
nephew. Never mind that you didn‘t stand up for Sonny, but you were throwing out cynical remarks when my sister sought justice
for Sonny. You‘re less than scum!”
Jessica tried to push Liberty and lashed out, “Fat cow! Who are you to touch my man?”
Liberty retaliated by shoving Jessica out of the way and slapping her too. She smirked. “He‘s the husband of a fat cow like me so
long as we aren‘t divorced. Who do you think you are?”
Jessica wanted to hit back.
“Jessica.”
Hank pulled Jessica behind him to protect her before saying to Liberty, “Why were you waiting for us here?”
Liberty replied with an equally icy tone, “We need to talk. Come with me.”
She then turned on her heel and went off.
Spotting her sister‘s car by chance, Liberty paused her footsteps but soon continued her journey to her bike.
Her sister had enough trouble in the last two days because of her. Liberty decided not to bother her sister today.
