Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

Chapter 146 Serenity‘s sister was her rock. Now that Serenity was all grown up and had the means, it was her turn to protect her
sister.
“Seren.”
Liberty held onto her sister and said, “Don‘t go. The injury is only superficial. Plus, I didn‘t let him get away with it. I chased him
down a few streets with a knife and scared him out of his wits. I trust he won‘t be violent to me anymore.”
“If he has done it once, he will do it again, Liberty. He won‘t know fear if you don‘t fight back when he lays his hands on you. He’ll
only assault you again.”
There should be zero tolerance toward domestic violence!
“I know. That‘s why I didn‘t give in and beat him up too. Teven went after him with a knife. You should‘ve seen the scared look on
his face. His legs were shaking. I heard that you must win the first fight between couples, and I won! He should think twice before
laying his hands on me next time.”
Liberty pulled her sister back firmly, keeping Serenity from getting even with Hank. “He‘s back at his parents‘ home. You‘ll be
facing his entire family if you go there. It won‘t go well for you. Don‘t go. I won‘t tolerate his
behavior anymore. I‘ll fight back if he screams and raises his hand at me.”
“Liberty, why didn‘t you tell me?” Heartbroken , Serenity caressed her sister‘s bruised face and asked in distress, “Does it still
hurt, Liberty ? D*mn Hank! How could he be rough with you? You‘ve been together for so many years and even gave him a son.
I can‘t believe he hit you.”
Liberty curled her lips bitterly. “He has been disgusted by the way I look since a long time ago.
“Did Zachary come over too?”
“He‘s here. He‘s playing with Sonny in the living room,” Serenity replied.
Liberty spoke in a muted tone to urge her sister, “Seren, you see how my marriage is breaking down. At the end of the day, it‘s all
because I quit my job and trusted your brother –in–law when he said he‘d take care of me. You need to always be financially
independent. No matter what, women should have their own source of income.

“Don‘t believe the bullsh*t men say about supporting you financially. It‘ll put you in a passive position. It‘s fine if he follows
through with his marriage vows and loves you forever, but if you get a man like your brother–in–law ... Look at what happened to
me.. Also, you have to take care of your appearance Take time for yourself and watch your figure. Men are lying when they say
they‘ll love you
no matter what you become! They‘re shallow and their values are only skin–deep.”
“I will, Liberty.”
Serenity owned a bookshop, so it would not impede her from running a household.
Zachary never said anything about getting her to quit and supporting her at home. All he did was make her sign a contract to
divorce six months later...
As for gaining a thicker waistline after giving birth, Serenity believed that she was far from going down that route. It may not even
happen.
She did not intend to remarry if she and Zachary were to separate. Serenity was fine with being on her own.
Serenity could adopt a child from the orphanage if she wanted to raise a child.
“Why did you fight, Liberty?”
Serenity wanted to know the reason.
Liberty turned off the fire and removed the pan from the stove. “I‘m guessing you and Zachary haven‘t had dinner. Let‘s eat
together. I‘ll make extra servings of pasta.”
She only made enough for herself and Sonny,
“I‘ll do it, Liberty.”
Serenity was a better cook than her sister
She began preparing the pasta and ingredients for the sauce before turning to her sister and asked, “Tell me, Liberty. Why did he
strike you?”

“It‘s about going halves. Since he insisted on doing it, I demanded the same on everything else too. That was when he
manhandled me. I wouldn‘t have had a go at him if it wasn‘t for his sudden outburst.”
Now that Serenity was in the know, Liberty spilled the beans on the reason for the fight.
Serenity chewed her brother–in–law out.
Although Liberty stopped her from getting even with Hank, Serenity decided to look for her brother–in–law after dinner.
As Liberty‘s family, Serenity needed to put the message out there. She would go after anyone who came at her sister!
