Chapter 118
Serenity listened intently to Liberty’s response. It was clear to her just how furious Hank must be, especially after having enjoyed Liberty’s royal treatment for so many years.
After a moment of silence, Liberty spoke up, “Since I’m the one who made this decision, I’m not afraid to confront him.”
“Seren, if I ever decide to get a divorce and need your support, I hope you’ll be there for me. But don’t worry—I’ll find my way back on my feet again,” she added.
Liberty realized she would need her sister’s financial assistance. However, she intended to borrow the money and not simply accept it as a gift. Once she regained her independence, she planned to pay Serenity back.
“Liberty, don’t say that. Your troubles are my troubles. I’ll be here for you, no matter what you choose. Zachary also mentioned that you can reach out to him if you need help. He just prefers to avoid dealing with Hank,” Serenity reassured her.
“Zachary is a good man. You should appreciate him and nurture your little family. Don’t make the same mistakes I did. The biggest regret I have is listening to Hank’s nonsense and believing he would always support me. That’s why I left my career to be a housewife. In the end, it was all a lie!” Liberty exclaimed.
“I’ll definitely cherish him,” Serenity promised.
Afterward, Serenity took Liberty home and insisted on escorting her upstairs. If Hank dared to mistreat Liberty, Serenity was ready to stand up for her sister.
A few minutes later, Liberty opened the door and walked inside with Serenity and her son, who had dozed off during the trip.
“Where have you been? Why did you take so long? I thought… Oh, Seren! You’re here too!” Hank grumbled, emerging from the kitchen wearing an apron and holding a spatula. His expression was dark and brooding. He had intended to scold his wife, but seeing his sister-in-law made him hold back his harsh words.
“Hank, have you eaten lunch yet?” Serenity inquired, her tone knowing.
Hank shot a glare at Liberty, but
Liberty chose to ignore the situation as she picked up her son and took him back to the room.
Meanwhile, Hank voiced his frustrations to his sister-in-law, Seren. “Look at your sister!” he complained. “All she does is take care of Sonny and neglects everything else at home. When I get back from work, I’m left to cook for myself. What’s the point of having a wife?!”
Serenity felt a surge of anger upon hearing Hank’s words. It became clear to her that he had married her sister expecting her to act as his unpaid nanny!
