Chelsea’s youngest son was right behind Sonny, wailing and demanding, “I want the plane Sonny got.” Gripping thetoy plane against his chest, Sonny nervously looked back at his cousin and murmured, “Huggies, Mama.
Huggies, Mama.” Liberty picked her son up.
“Liberty , tell Sonny to give the plane to my son.
We’re your guests.
Sonny should be nice to my son.” Chelsea came over and wiped away her son’s tears before standing up to grab the toy plane from Sonny.
Seeing that Sonny refused to let go, Chelsea was about to snatch the toy right out of Sonny’s hand when she caught aglimpse of Serenity and her husband.
Zachary had his hands full with bags.
She immediately withdrew her arms and greeted Serenity with a smile.
“Long time no see, Serenity.
Is this your husband? Why, he’s a handsome and striking man, isn’t he?” Not only was the man attractive, but he also carried himself with a presenceand grace that even Hank, despite being in a managerial position, could not beat.
Chelsea was envious of Serenity.
Chapter 76 2/4 “Long time no see, Chelsea.
This is my husband, Zachary.” Chelsea exchanged greetings with Zachary.
Aloof as ever, Zachary gave a nod without a word.
Zachary took an instant dislike to Chelsea after witnessing the woman snatching Sonny’s toy for her son.
Sonny was younger than his cousin, and most importantly, the toy belonged to him.
Why should Sonny give in to his cousin’s demand? As someone who has his people’s best interest at heart, Zacharywas not going to stand by and let one of his own get the short end of the stick.
Zachary adored the little man and could not bear to put Sonny in that position.
Liberty asked Serenity and Zachary to come in as Chelsea picked up her son.
Her son must be spoiled silly because he was still fussing over Sonny’s toy.
Hank’s parents were all smiles, seeing that Serenity and her husband came bearing gifts.
They were not fond of Serenity before, but those feelings changed now that the latter was married and had moved out.
Mr. and Mrs.Brown heard that Serenity’s husband owned a house at Brynfield debt-free and was in a senior position in a major company.
These were good enough reasons to get on Serenity’s good side.
Everybody took a seat.
Zachary put the shopping bags on the coffee table.
Spotting a new toy among other stuff, Chelsea opened the shopping bag and took out anew toy set to give to her son.
She said, “Don’t cry, bubs.
Let’s play with the new toy.
We don’t like Sonny’s old toy, do we?” Zachary clenched his jawline and gave Chelsea a grimacing look as tension rose in theroom.
Mr.Brown nudged his wife, hinting her to hold down their daughter from going too far.
Serenity’s husband brought these new toys for Sonny.
Chelsea was only embarrassing herself for claiming things without permission.
Feeling awkward, Chelsea’s husband, George Repton, got up immediately to grab the new toy set from his son and putit back on the coffee table.
George carried his son and settled him down.
“Be a good boy now, bubs.
I’ll get you a new toy later.” Chelsea could not read the room to save her life.
Zachary blurted, “Let him play with the toy.
I bought a lot of new toys for Sonny.
He won’t be missing that.” Having noticed the dirty hands of the Repton’s child, Zachary regarded thetoy that was touched as soiled and tainted.
Hence, the kid could have the toy for all he cared.
He gestured to Serenity to give the new toy set to the Repton kid.
Not wanting to make things harder for Liberty than they already were, Serenity picked up the toy and gave it to Chelsea’sson.
Then, Serenity noticed the little guy’s soiled hands and understood the reason behind Zachary’s sudden generosity.
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.
