Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 77 ' Since Zachary was a bit of a germaphobe , the kid’s dirty hands on the new toy did not sit well with him.
That was why he was generous to give away the new toy.
Now that the two young ones got over their whining, the negative vibe among the adults subsided.
Although Zachary said nothing, the Browns got the hint from his eyes and expression to never rub him the wrongway.
Mrs.
Brown already had the impression that Serenity was bad news, but her man meant business too.
She was aware of Liberty's relationship with Serenity and her son’s deeds too, so she needed to warn herson against going
overboard.
Liberty might have taken an unpaid role · as a stay-at-home mom, but she did give the Browns their first grandson, and that
should count assomething.
Hank soon returned home.
After everybody had a brief rest on the couch, Liberty called them to the dining table as dinner was ready.
Serenity followed her sister to the kitchen to bring out the food.
While there, Serenity noticed a few seafood dishes.
She whispered , “Liberty , Zachary and I can just have your everyday home-cooked meals.
You didn't have to get us seafood." "Your brother-in-law told me to get a lot.
You know Chelsea's family loves seafood, but they wouldn't have it at home since it’s expensive.
Ironically, they expect a seafood gourmet every time they come, and I’m talking about the expensive kind.
My mother-in-law is the same when it comes to beef.
"Why should I pay for their meals? I didn't use the good stuff for lunch and kept it all in the fridge for tonight’sdinner.

I want you and Zachary to enjoy a nice meal.” Liberty only cooked a pot of pasta for her in-lawsthis afternoon and paid no heed
to the nasty looks she got in return.
: It was a pleasant dinner for everybody though.
After dinner, Zachary stayed for a little while before making a move.
As his wife, Serenity had to leave with him too.
With the couple gone, Liberty started clearing the dishes of her side of the family to wash in the kitchen.
With the thought of serving dessert to his parents and sister, Hank swung by the fridge to take out the watermelon whenhe
caught sight of the mess in the dining hall.
He raised his voice, "Liberty, why haven't you cleared the table? Get out here and cleanup the place." Instead of leaving her task
at hand, Serenity replied from the kitchen, “You said we're going halves.
The groceries today make up for the money I used to get the clothes.
We’re even on that front.
"But we should do our part in the house so that it’s fair.
I've cleared Serenity and her husband's, as well as my plates.
The rest is yours and your family’s.
I don't care whether you do it but you'll have to use the same plate tomorrow if you don’t clean it up.” TheBrowns turned their
gazes toward Hank.
Mrs.Brown and Chelsea had suggested to Hank to go fifty – fifty with Liberty as Liberty was milking Hank dry.
The women in Hank's family felt the pinch in his wallet for his sake.
Now that the couple started going Dutch, Liberty was expecting the same with household affairs.
Seeing red, Hank grabbed a fruit knife and charged into the kitchen but his mother held him back.
