Married At First Sight Chapter 1351
Chapter 1351
“Do you think Camryn can marry into the Yorks even if we want her to?”
Mr. Newman said, “I don’t want her to marry into the Yorks either. Although I dote on her because she’s my brother’s only child, I love our son and daughter more. How could I possibly let her marry into the wealthiest family in Wiltspoon?
“Don’t think about getting Carrie to marry into the Yorks either; she doesn’t stand a chance. Putting aside everything else, the mere fact that we have a beef with Mr. and Mrs. York makes it impossible for the other bachelors of the Yorks to like her. Carrie is only twenty, so there’s no hurry for her to get married now.
“What we need to do is to get her out first.”
Mr. and Mrs. Newman walked to the couch and sat. The latter asked, “How do we save her? We’ve bowed our heads and apologized, but they were all to no avail. We initially found someone who could help mediate the situation, but it was ruined by Mr. Callum.
“Darling, will Mr. Callum recognize that man is from the Marshalls? The man is a Marshall, but he’s their fifth cousin. If he’s identified, the Marshalls themselves will take action to punish him.
“His family is five degrees separated from Old Mr. Marshall’s lineage; even though he’s rich, he barely has a say in their family. Mr. Callum probably wouldn’t recognize him. The Yorks are only close to the Marshalls‘ lineal descent, so they might not know anyone from the collateral kins.” Mr. Newman said, “Don’t lose your head first. In any case, when they start looking into the matter, we’ll put all the blame on the bodyguard. Make him leave Wiltspoon tomorrow.”
Mrs. Newman responded, “Okay, I got it. Tell me, how should we cling to Mr. Callum?”
“He saved Camryn, so let Camryn repay him with her body and cling to him. The Yorks definitely wouldn’t want a daughter–in–law like her. When the time comes, we can discuss and say that we only want to bail Carrie out. Once Carrie is out, we don’t have to pester Mr. Callum anymore,” Mr. Newman answered.
“That b*tch won’t agree to help. She’s dying for Carrie to be sentenced. Besides, what if the Yorks accept that little b*tch sleeping with Mr. Callum?”
Mr. Newman remarked, “She’s blind… How could Mr. Callum marry her? Coax her tomorrow and stop calling her a b*tch. You gave birth to her, after all. If you call her a b*tch, you’re saying the same about yourself.”
Mrs. Newman pouted her mouth and said, “Whenever I see her, it’s like seeing her father. I can’t help but despise her, and I even want to kill her so she can reunite with him. I shouldn’t have been soft back then and should’ve just killed her. She was only two years old at that time, and it would’ve been easy to do so.”
“I told you not to say things like that anymore. She’s still my brother’s only child, and she’s a blind girl, so it doesn’t affect us. Once Carrie is out, we’ll marry her off to someone else anyhow. Everything will be over then.”
Back then, Mr. Newman let Camryn stay because she was just a girl who would not get far and
would not be a threat to him.
Furthermore, Camryn was a daughter of the woman Mr. Newman loved the most. She looked like his brother and his wife, so he loved her as well. Mr. Newman could not bring himself to be ruthless toward the innocent child who would adorably call him her uncle.
“Our room has soundproofing. This house is already under our control, so why do we have to be afraid of her eavesdropping on us? I can’t wait to kill her!
“If your little sister hadn’t suddenly returned to visit ten years ago, Camryn wouldn’t have been sent to the hospital and would’ve died long ago.
“Luckily, her eyes were damaged, and she became blind. She can’t threaten us at all now.”
Ten years ago, Mrs. Newman found out that Camryn seemed to be suspecting her late ex- husband’s death and the girl was secretly asking around to collect evidence. That was why she did something cruel to Camryn.
Who knew, her sister–in–law came back to visit and saved Camryn.
If Camryn’s eyes were not damaged, she could not have survived.
“Alright, alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. It’s getting late. Go remove your makeup and rest early.”
Mr. Newman did not want to talk about the past any further. He got up and left. When he saw the cane in the corner, he asked, “Why is Camryn’s cane in our room?”
“I told her to come in so I could help her with her makeup, but she tried to go out with the cane, so I kicked it away and left it here.”
Mrs. Newman walked over while she spoke. She picked up Camryn’s white cane and then walked to the door to open it and throw the cane outside.
There were no more talks that night.
Serenity did not wake up until the sun was up.
After rubbing her eyes and stretching, she sat up but felt a headache.
Married At First Sight Chapter 1352
Chapter 1352
The headache was coming from a hangover.
Serenity endured the headache and reached for her phone to check the time. It was ten in the morning.
She muttered, “When he wakes up, he goes off and leaves me alone in the room; when I wake up first, he’ll say I’m leaving him behind and abandoning him.”
Knock, knock.
There was a knock on the door.
Thinking it was the maid, Serenity answered, “Come in.“
The door was pushed open, but it was her sister, Liberty, who came in. Her nephew, Sonny, followed behind.
“Liberty?”
Serenity was surprised to see her sister. After all, her sister’s breakfast place had not closed at this hour.
“Liberty, why are you here?”
Serenity was about to turn over to get out of bed, but her head ached more due to the sudden huge movement.
She had slept all night, so why was her head still aching?
She only drank a few glasses of wine.
Liberty walked over and sat on the edge of Serenity’s bed. She looked at Serenity and asked, ” Does your heart hurt?”
“No, it doesn’t,” Serenity smiled and lied.
“I closed early today and came to see you. How much did you drink last night?”
“I didn’t have many. Liberty, it’s hard not to drink when you’re socializing. I only drank a few glasses -just a few glasses.”
Serenity knew her sister had always not allowed her to drink and had asked Zachary to watch her so that she would not drink wine as if it was water. Her sister also said that her alcohol tolerance was very poor although she liked to drink.
“Zachary said you drank a lot of wine and kept praising how good it was when you were coming home. Socializing requires you to drink, but you do it in moderation. How many times have I told you that?”
Liberty also had social engagements in the past due to work. She had to drink but would not drink too much as she understood her tolerance. In short, Liberty always kept a clear head and was nimble whenever she socialized, lest to be schemed by other people.
“Zachary complained about me to you.”
After saying that, Serenity was lightly poked by her sister on the forehead.
Serenity touched where she was poked by her sister and complained softly, “He just likes to tell on me. Whenever I do something bad, he goes to you extra fast to complain about me.
“I don’t even grumble about him to his parents.”
Liberty spoke for Zachary, “Zachary didn’t tell on you; he accidentally spilled it when I asked him what happened.”
“He’s the most tight–lipped person, so how could he have accidentally said it? He told on me for drinking in excess. I can see through his little mind. The wine was good. If he hadn’t stopped me after that, I would’ve drunk a few more glasses… Liberty… Don’t pull my ear.”
Mrs. York revealed her thirst for drinks and had her ear pulled by her sister.
Married At First Sight Chapter 1353
Chapter 1353
In fact, Liberty did not use force. Serenity shouted on purpose to make her sister feel sorry for her.
“Sonny, quickly save me.”
Serenity asked for her little nephew’s help.
Sonny put in the extra effort. He immediately climbed on the bed and recused his aunt’s ear from his mom’s hand. He even protected his aunt by staying in front of her and said to his mom, “Mom, Aunt Ser will be in pain.”
Serenity hugged the little one and kissed him on the cheek. She said with a smile, “I didn’t love you for nothing.”
Liberty poked her sister’s forehead again and said, “Hurry up. Go wash up, change your clothes, and come downstairs to eat.”
“Got it, my dear old sister.”
“Am I very old?”
“No, no. My sister is still very young, like an eighteen–year–old girl.”
Serenity had a strong desire to live.
Liberty responded amusingly, “I’d like to be eighteen but unfortunately, I’m not Aphrodite, and I can’t stay eighteen every year. I’m going to pick up the car this afternoon. Are you free to go with me? Also, the instructor Zachary arranged for Sonny will come this afternoon. He wanted me to tell you that he’ll be back for lunch at noon and will rest in the afternoon.”
The Marshalls‘ banquet was held on Sunday, and many big bosses returned to work the day after.
Mr. York was a dedicated boss, so he also went to work as usual.
“Is it the self–defense instructor?”
“Mhm.”
Serenity let go of Sonny and said, “Then I’ll go wash up now. I’ll go pick up the car with you in the afternoon.”
Liberty carried her son and said to Serenity, “Hurry up. I’ll wait for you downstairs.”
“Got it.”
Liberty walked out of her sister’s room with her son in her arms.
While they were still on the stairs, she saw Duncan carrying a box of stuff in.
Liberty froze for a moment.
Did Duncan not go to work today? Why was he at her sister’s place?
Soon, Liberty came back to her senses and carried her son downstairs. She walked toward Duncan and asked with a smile, “Mr. Lewis, what did you bring for Zachary? It looks quite heavy.
You should’ve asked someone else to carry it in.”
Zachary had housekeepers, drivers, and bodyguards. Duncan did not have to carry things into the house by himself.
After putting down the box, Duncan replied to Liberty, “It’s not for Zachary, but for Sonny. I didn’t go to work today and rested at home.”
He said he was taking a rest but came to Zachary’s house instead, and he came right after Liberty arrived at that.
“For Sonny?”
Liberty looked at the box. “Is it a children’s bicycle? Sonny is still too young, so I’m afraid he can’t ride it.”
“I bought a small bike, toddler friendly, for Sonny, but it has to be self–assembled. I heard from Zachary that you’re here, so I sent it here and was thinking of assembling it for Sonny so he can ride and play outside.”
Zachary’s villa covered a massive area. There was more than enough space for Sonny to ride his bike.
“Mr. Lewis, you’re too kind. How much is the bike? I’ll pay you back.”
A bicycle was not a windmill–windmills were not worth anything. Hence, Liberty did not stop Duncan from gifting windmills to Sonny and letting his son accept the various windmills presented to him.
Duncan responded, “Liberty, don’t always talk about money to me. Have you not heard of the saying ‘money talk hurts feelings? I just like Sonny, so he must have what others have. Besides, the toddler bike I bought isn’t expensive–it’s really not expensive, just over a hundred dollars. Given my friendship with Zachary, what’s wrong with me gifting a bicycle to his nephew?”
Married At First Sight Chapter 1354
Chapter 1354
“I was afraid Zachary would say that I’m stingy and cheap such that I’m unwilling to get Sonny a more expensive bicycle,” Duncan added.
He pulled Sonny over and pointed at the cardboard box as he said, “Sonny, I bought you a small bicycle. Do you like it? Do you want to ride it?”
Sonny thought about the other children with bicycles he saw during his evening walks with his mom downstairs at their place. He nodded and answered, “Dunc, I like bicycles.”
Duncan smiled. “Then I’ll unpack it now and assemble it for you. I’ll take you outside to ride it later, okay? I also bought you a windmill. If it’s attached to the head of your bicycle, it’ll spin when you ride. It’ll look great.”
Sonny was full of anticipation. He could not hide his happiness at all.
When Liberty heard Duncan say that the bicycle was just over a hundred dollars and that he also brought up his friendship with Zachary, she stopped asking him about the bicycle’s cost. She just thought she would let him dine at her breakfast store for free for half a month from tomorrow onward.
With that, Duncan unpacked the box and helped Sonny assemble the bicycle.
When Serenity came downstairs and saw this, she walked over and asked with a smile, “Mr. Lewis, do you not have to work today?”
Last night at the banquet, she saw Duncan and Lily getting along quite well. The two of them even danced to a song after that. Mrs. Lewis smiled from ear to ear. Everyone present was smart, sol they knew Lily was her ideal daughter–in–law.
As such, Duncan and Lily were naturally taken as a pair.
Serenity did not expect Duncan to come over when her husband was not even around. He even knew that her sister and Sonny were here.
“I got too high last night, so I wanted to rest at home today.”
Duncan gave the same reasoning.
“I bought a small bicycle for Sonny. I heard from Zachary that Sonny is here, so I sent it here.”
Duncan said while unpacking the bag of tools that were delivered together. He took out the tools and looked at the instructions before he began assembling.
Sonny was delighted. He played with the bicycle parts from time to time or squatted in front of Duncan to watch him work the bicycle.
By sending Lego bricks to Sonny and teaching him how to assemble them, Duncan managed to get closer to him. He also made the little one adore him.
Hank had cursed Duncan internally for being cunning and using Sonny’s innocence to get closer to Liberty.
In fact, Duncan did put some effort into closing the gap between him and Sonny. Now, whenever he wanted to carry Sonny, Sonny would not be as reluctant as before.
“Liberty, I’m going to eat.”
Serenity was hungry. After watching for a while, she said to her sister and walked to the dining hall.
Liberty did not assemble the bicycle with Duncan. She was not good at putting things together. Whenever she bought things that needed assembly, Serenity would usually be the one doing it.
She followed her sister into the dining area.
“Liberty, let’s eat together.”
“No, I’m not hungry yet. Are you having breakfast or lunch now?” Liberty roasted her sister.
“I’ll just eat a little to fill my stomach. I’ll eat with Zachary again when he’s back.” Serenity sent a message to her best friend. After knowing that her best friend was not up yet, she said with a smile, “Jasmine is worse than me; she’s still in bed now.”
Their bookstore would not be open for business today.
Liberty wanted to say something else when her phone rang.
“It’s Hank,” Liberty said to her sister.
Afterward, she picked up her ex–husband’s call.
Serenity heard her sister say to her ex–brother–in–law. “You want Sonny to be your flower boy? You’re picking him up now to try on his suit?”
Married At First Sight Chapter 1355
Chapter 1355
Hank said on the other end of the line, “Sonny is three years old and is my son, so what’s wrong with him being my flower boy? Where are you and Sonny? I’m at the door of your rented unit and have been hitting the door but nobody is answering. You’re not inside, right?”
Jessica was standing next to him as she listened to his conversation with Liberty.
She rested for a few days after her fight with her sister–in–law the other day, so the bruises on her face were gone.
Hank bought two more sets of skin care products for Jessica and reluctantly gave her a jewelry set to coax her.
Moreover, Hank told his parents and sister that he and Jessica had gotten their marriage license and that Jessica was set on living the rest of her life with him. Since their wedding was approaching, he asked his parents and sister not to pick on Jessica anymore.
He also blamed them for his divorce from Liberty back then. He asked his parents, “Do you want me to divorce again? Think about the cost of my divorce from Liberty. Do you want me to do it again?
“If I divorce again, I’ll be a laughing stock. People will say that I deserve it and that it is karma. They’ll say that I’m a twice–divorced man. Also, if you keep fighting with Jessica and causing trouble, who would still want to let their daughter marry me? You’re my family, and yet you always think of dragging me down instead of thinking for me. Are you only going to be satisfied if I live alone for the rest of my life?”
Hank’s parents stopped after hearing what he said. They also began cooking Jessica’s share of meals.
As for Hank’s sister who kept stirring up trouble, she was kicked out by their father. She was ordered not to come to the city before the wedding and could only come on that day to attend the wedding.
“Tell Liberty that we’re going to pick up Sonny,” Jessica said softly.
When she went for her morning run earlier, she received another note from that unknown woman. The woman asked her to find a way to take Sonny away from Liberty as soon as possible without choosing a location. As long as Sonny was taken away from Liberty, someone would “snatch” him from Hank and Jessica.
Jessica also wanted to get it done and over with. She did not want to worry about the matter during her wedding.
She began harboring ill intentions because of how her in–laws treated her as compared to how they treated Liberty and her son.
If Sonny was no longer in the equation, how would the Browns still pine for Liberty and Hank to remarry?
Jessica managed to snatch Hank. Even though he was no longer a manager, he gave her most of the money he earned from being an Uber driver. Hank was her man and her husband now. She would defend her marriage to her death.
She would never let herself go down the same road as Liberty.
Liberty had a sister who married into a rich family and could help her, but not Jessica.
Jessica did not want to be laughed at by other people. She did not want them to think that she did not gain anything after getting rid of Hank’s first wife and that her in–laws were united against her.
She felt that her in–laws were only having wild thoughts because of Sonny. They must have thought that Hank and Liberty could remarry if Hank and Jessica separated.
The Browns were simply whimsical. What did they take Liberty for? And what did they take Hank for?
Did they think Hank was the US currency everyone loved?
Did they think Liberty was easy to handle and be at their beck and call? Liberty did love Hank back then, but she no longer loved him now. She was very clear–headed, so why would she return to the Browns and get stuck in the black hole again?
Hank gestured for Jessica to keep quiet. He continued to ask Liberty, “Liberty, are you listening to me? I asked where you and Sonny are now.”
“I’m at Seren’s place. Where are you taking Sonny to try on his suit? Why does a little kid need to try on a suit? As his father, you can just buy a small kid’s suit for him.”
Married At First Sight Chapter 1356
Chapter 1356
Hank said, “Even if I buy a small suit for Sonny, I have to take him along. I don’t know what size he is. What if it’s too big or too small?”
Liberty immediately told him Sonny’s size and said, “Buy his suit according to this size. It’ll fit him.”
“Liberty, are you stopping me from spending time with my son? When we got divorced, we agreed that I can see my son whenever I want to. Now that I miss him and want to buy some clothes for him, you won’t even let me see him.”
Liberty hung up the phone right away.
Ever since she became suspicious of Jessica, she no longer dared let Hank take Sonny away again.
Hank probably listened to Jessica because he did not know that she was being used. When Jessica suggested that Sonny become their flower boy, he agreed without much thought.
He also felt that there was no need to find someone else to be the flower boy, so he let Sonny have the role.
Sonny could talk well and was sensible. He was slightly taller than his peers, so he would be suitable as the flower boy.
Hank also felt that his son was becoming more handsome, so he would feel prouder if his son became the flower boy. After all, Sonny was Mr. York’s nephew.
“How is it?” Jessica asked.
Hank moved his phone away from his ear and showed her. He said angrily, “Liberty hung up on me. She’s starting to disregard me more now. She answers my call when she wants to and hangs up if she doesn’t want to listen to me anymore.”
Jessica wanted to laugh when she heard what Hank said.
Hank was too well taken care of by Liberty in the past and was used to being respected.
He wanted Liberty to keep flattering him.
“Hank, it’s been months since you and Liberty divorced, and you still haven’t adapted to it?”
Hank was speechless.
“Where are Liberty and Sonny now? If she won’t send him to us, we’ll go pick him up.”
Hank responded, “She said they’re at Serenity’s place. Serenity lives in Brynfield, but we can’t get in. Liberty won’t let me take Sonny to try on his suit, but she isn’t against him being the flower boy and asked me to just buy a kid’s suit for him. She told me his size and said that the suit will fit him if we buy it accordingly.”
“Buy? We’ll just rent it. How are we going to choose a suit if we don’t bring Sonny along?”
Hank looked at her and suggested, “How about we just buy a kid’s suit for Sonny? I’m his father, so it’s only right for me to buy him some clothes.
“Since I know his size now, I can buy the right clothes for him without needing him to be present.”
Jessica was unhappy. “Hank, I think Liberty just doesn’t want us to get close to Sonny, afraid that we’ll take her place in his heart. Although I’m his stepmom and am considered his mom, how can I be compared with his biological mother?
“She’s feeling a sense of crisis now and is stopping you from seeing Sonny whenever you want, which is what you agreed when you divorced. If she’s not letting you take Sonny to shop for clothes as his dad, doesn’t that mean she doesn’t want you to get close to Sonny?”
Hank was already feeling that Liberty was stopping him from spending time with his son. After hearing what Jessica said, he felt even more strongly that Liberty was getting bolder and did not want to keep her promise.
Married At First Sight Chapter 1357
Chapter 1357
Hank said with a solemn expression, “Sonny is my son and will always be my son. If Liberty won’t let me see him, I can go to court with her again to fight for his custody.”
Jessica could not let Hank fight for Sonny’s custody. She immediately comforted him, “You’re an Uber driver now without a regular income. We’re having our wedding soon and will go on a honeymoon after that, so it won’t be wise for you to fight for his custody.”
She only wanted to use Sonny and not take care of him.
Jessica would still have a child in the future. If they were to take Sonny with them, Hank’s love would be split between them.
“Liberty closed her store early today to go to her sister’s place. Let’s go to her diner earlier tomorrow and pick up Sonny to try on his suit. It doesn’t matter if we do it tomorrow.”
Hank said angrily, “If not for Liberty, we wouldn’t have lost our jobs. After Liberty took a share of my property worth more than a million dollars, I thought we could earn the money back in no time. In the end, we lost our jobs not long after the divorce. We can’t find good jobs now.”
As such, he could only be an Uber driver.
The little money he was earning at the moment could not be compared with what he used to make as a manager.
In the past, his monthly income was an ordinary person’s annual income.
Now…
Hank’s family always said his situation now was because of his divorce from Liberty. He was able to be promoted to manager with higher pay and was deeply trusted by his boss because Liberty brought fortune to him.
On the other hand, Jessica brought him back luck. After marrying her, he lost his job and could not earn money anymore, so he could only use the money he already had. Their family also lost their peace ever since she appeared.
Back then, Liberty renovated their house with her savings and was devoted to their small family. On the contrary, Jessica had been reluctant to spend her savings, so Hank had been paying for almost all of their family’s expenses. His parents felt that he suffered a huge loss.
However, they did not know it was Serenity and Liberty who had caused everything as a form of revenge on him.
“Hank, there’s no point talking about that now. Liberty’s sister has such a good life. Many women failed to conquer Mr. York, and yet she unknowingly became the Yorks‘ missus. Comparisons are odious.”
Jessica was also envious.
She thought the same as Hank. If Serenity had not married into a rich family and used Mr. York’s power to suppress and take revenge on her and Hank, they would be living a free and easy life at the moment.
Hank and Jessica’s combined monthly income would have been six figures. Some people could not even earn as much money in a year. Would they not have lived a good life?
Jessica could have accompanied Hank to various business receptions and made friends with many elites and heads of companies. She would not need to fight with her in–laws every day as she did now.
The Browns were all about money.
Whoever had money was good.
Liberty did not have an income in the past, but Jessica did, so the Browns thought that the latter was better than the former.
Now, it was the other way round as Liberty had an income while Jessica did not. The Browns then thought that Jessica was a bearer of bad luck whereas Liberty would bring good luck to her husband. They kept urging Hank to divorce Jessica and remarry Liberty, which infuriated Jessica.
“Hank, let’s go.”
Jessica took Hank’s arm. The couple went downstairs together and left Liberty’s rented unit. “Hank, can you send me back to my mom’s house?”
Married At First Sight Chapter 1358
Chapter 1358
Jessica was not able to complete the task given to her by the unknown woman. She was worried that the other party would act on her family again, so she wanted Hank to send her home.
Her family was also in the countryside.
Hank was not too fond of visiting his mother–in–law. Every time he went, his mother-in-law would say that she was feeling unwell and that she lacked some things at home. Whenever he heard her, he would give her some money as he felt sorry for her.
Although he did not give much, this happened every time he visited. He felt uncomfortable about it as if his mother–in–law was taking him as an ATM.
Luckily, Jessica truly liked Hank and wanted to spend her life with him. When his mother–in–law demanded a high amount for bride price, Jessica stood by his side and went ahead to get their marriage license behind her parents‘ backs. There was nothing his mother–in–law could do.
In the end, the bride price was reduced to tens of thousands of dollars.
Even so, it was still a high figure in Wiltspoon’s countryside. After all, they were ordinary and not. rich families, so they could not be compared to those wealthy people.
Nevertheless, after receiving the bride price, the Yateses explicitly said that the Browns would have to pay for the wedding reception, or they would not hold it at all. If that happened, the Yateses would bring a group of relatives to the city to have a wedding dinner at the Browns‘ residence instead.
Hank discussed it with his parents and agreed to the Yateses‘ request. On the day of the wedding, both families and their relatives would get together to celebrate.
The reception was set in a restaurant, but they did not dare choose a classy hotel as they could not afford it.
The Yateses would not give Jessica dowry and would only give her a few bedding sets.
If she felt that her dowry was shabby, she could ask her husband to pay for her dowry, or she could pay for it out of her pocket.
Whether it was the Browns or the Yateses, they knew Jessica had some savings.
The Browns wanted her to pay for the renovation of their marital home, while the Yateses wanted her to help improve her family’s lives. Jessica’s mom even scolded her and said that she was raised for nothing. Her education was provided for, but she did not give back to her family with the money she had earned. Instead, she saved a lot of money for herself.
When Jessica worked, part of her monthly salary was for her family, and she saved the rest for herself.
No matter what her in–laws and family said about her, she did not touch her savings.
This was her bottom line after marriage.
She did not want to be like Liberty, who emptied her savings and had to ask for money from her husband after marriage.
Jessica’s mom had always said that a son was not as good as pocket money, and a lady needed money to stand on her own.
If she expected Hank to support her, she would only follow in Liberty’s footsteps.
Once the wedding was done and Sonny’s matter was over, Jessica would look for a job. Even if she could not find a secretarial job, she would work as an ordinary clerk or open a store as Liberty did. If she was the boss, whatever she earned from the business would belong to her.
“I’ll send you to the entrance of your housing area and you can walk home. I’m not going in. I’m scared of your parents. Every time I visit, they say they’re unwell and need money to see the doctor. They just want my money.
“Otherwise, they’ll say they lack certain things at home and ask me to buy those things for them. After that, they’ll say they don’t have the money to pay me back and will owe me first. How can I ask them to pay me back?” Hank said while getting into the car.
He disliked his in–laws very much.
Jessica said, “My parents are getting older, so they’re often unwell.”
“If they’re unwell, what about your brothers? Why won’t they pay for your parents to see the doctor? Besides, do your parents have no money? They have the bride price I gave them, and they’re not giving you dowry. Isn’t that money?”
Married At First Sight Chapter 1359
Chapter 1359
“Your parents treat me as a dupe. Do they think I’m rich? I’m just an Uber driver now!” Hank said to Jessica.
He had been in a bad mood since Liberty hung up on him.
As such, he took it out on the Yateses.
Jessica agreed that her parents were covertly asking for money. Her mom used to do the same. when she went home to visit in the past. In any case, Jessica had always given half of her salary to her family. No matter what her mom said after that, she did not give more. Over time, her mom stopped trying.
Even so, Jessica could not stand Hank complaining about her family. As bad as they were, they were her parents, her brothers, and her sisters–in–law.
“Don’t complain about my parents. They’re my parents, and it was hard for them to raise me. Now that you’ve married me, you’re their son–in–law. A son–in–law is like half a son. What’s wrong with giving them some money for them to see the doctor?
“Have your parents not asked you for money before? Also, your outrageous sister is extremely shameless. I’ve never seen such a shameless person. She has been married for over ten years and still intervenes in her maiden family’s affairs.
“Your parents and your sister are the same. Hank, I’m telling you, I’m only putting up with your family because I love you. Do you think some other woman can tolerate it?”
Hank had started the car, but he turned off the engine after hearing Jessica accuse his family. He refuted, “What’s wrong with my parents asking me for some living expenses? You were raised by your parents, but I wasn’t?
“Was it easy for my parents to raise me? You say that a son–in–law is like half a son, so I should. honor your parents. Since you married into my family and became a daughter–in–law of the Browns, shouldn’t you honor my parents too? My sister has always been like that. What can I do about it? I can’t cut ties with her–she’s my only sister!”
Jessica replied, “Do you think your sister is family for life whereas your wife can be replaced at any time? Is that why you keep helping your sister and siding with your family? The money your parents received from you has always been used to subsidize the spending of your sister’s family.
“Your sister’s children were all raised by your parents. Their pensions and the living expenses you gave are all used to support her family’s spending What did your sister give back to your parents? What has she given back to you?
“You always say that my parents only think about helping my brothers, why don’t you
criticize your parents for helping your sister? My brothers aren’t rich, but is your sister not? Her savings are definitely more than yours! When your brother–in–law wanted to open a hardware store, they even wanted to borrow money from us. Only someone as thick–faced as Chelsea could do something like that.
“If she’s so capable, she should ask Liberty for money and ask for her breakfast store. Liberty’s
diner is doing so well and rakes in money every day. If she’s so competent, she should go to Liberty instead!”
Jessica became angrier as she spoke.
She must be crazy to think that marrying Hank could change her fate.
Jessica did not come to a realization after seeing Liberty’s fate and thought she could control the Browns. She thought Hank would always listen to her and be on her side for the rest of her life.
Once she changed from being his lover to his wife, she realized that she was too naive.
“Can you stop bringing Liberty up? My sister is thick–skinned? Is your family not? How dare they ask for a bride price of 777,777 dollars? Did they think I own a bank that prints money? Are they marrying their daughter or selling her off? If I had met their requirements, they would’ve used the money for your brothers anyway.
“Your mom sold her daughter and used the money she got to help someone else’s daughter. She doesn’t care about what happens to her daughter after the marriage,” Hank retorted with a darkened expression.
Neither Hank nor Jessica wanted to take a step back. They sided with their respective family and had a big fight in the car.
When Hank could not win the fight anymore, he got out of the car abruptly and went around to the passenger seat to pull Jessica out of the car. He said furiously, “You can walk back to your biased family.
“I, Hank Brown, won’t be your family’s ATM. My money doesn’t fall from the sky!”
Following that, Hank returned to his seat and quickly drove away.
Jessica shouted and cursed at the distant car. In the end, she even yelled, “Hank Brown, let’s get a divorce!”
The wedding had not even taken place, but she felt she could no longer go on with Hank.
Hank drove away and did not hear Jessica asking for a divorce.
Tears of aggravation streamed down.

Jessica could not help but squat on the ground. She covered her face and cried.
After crying for a while, she stood up and took out a piece of tissue to wipe away her tears and snot. She then walked forward.
Divorce? She would not divorce for the time being.
If she did, what would she do if she could not complete the task given to her by the unknown. woman?
What would happen to her family?
Besides, Jessica had snatched Hank from someone else. If she simply separated from him, would be laughed at for getting what she deserved.
Jessica gritted her teeth and told herself that she could not bow down or retreat. She must teach the Browns a lesson.
She definitely would not follow in Liberty’s footsteps!
Liberty was clueless about the conflict between Hank and Jessica. She had only hung up rudely because she did not like the tone of Hank’s speech.
She did not want to care about her ex–husband anymore.
If he truly wanted to buy clothes for Sonny, he should be able to buy suitable clothes for his son since she had informed him of Sonny’s size.
In any case, Liberty would not let her son go out with Hank and Jessica–unless she had time to tag along.
The zoo incident was still hovering over her head like a big shadow, giving her lingering fears. whenever she thought about it.
Liberty dared not imagine the consequences.
By the time Serenity was done eating, Duncan had finished assembling the small bicycle for Sonny. Sonny was overjoyed and wanted to ride it immediately.
Duncan accompanied him to the courtyard outside to ride his bicycle and Liberty followed suit.
By the time Serenity went outside, Sonny had learned to ride a bike. He was cycling fast on the concrete road. The windmill that Duncan bought him was attached to the front of the bicycle. It moved with the bicycle and spun in the wind.
It was beautiful.
The yard was filled with Sonny’s laughter.
Liberty took out her phone to record a video.
Duncan walked over and stood by her side. He said with a smile, “I was afraid the bicycle was too big for him. Luckily, it fits nicely. If it was slightly bigger, Sonny wouldn’t be able to reach the pedals and couldn’t ride it.”
“Mr. Lewis, thank you.”
Liberty stopped recording the video and thanked Duncan.
Duncan looked at her. At this precise moment, the sun shone on her face and painted her skin a
bright glow. Her face looked fair with a hint of scarlet.
‘She’s beautiful!‘ Duncan praised internally.
This was the first time he realized that Liberty was captivating.
