Her mother thought Jasmine had better conditions than Serenity, but Serenity got married before her.
Even if Serenity and Zachary got married at first sight, Zachary seemed like a decent man.
On the other hand, Jasmine still did not have a boyfriend, and her blind dates fell through time and again.
That was why Jasmine’s mother was so anxious.
Fortunately, Jasmine’s mother stopped urging her to get married these days.
That was because Jasmine was willing to go all out for some peace and quiet.
Serenity giggled.
She often saw Jasmine’s mother and knew that Jasmine’s mother was only anxious about Jasmine’s marriage after seeing that she was married.
“Your mother is relentless, but that’s normal with mothers.
I want to have a mother to encourage me like this, but I can’t even rememberwhat my mother looks like now…” Serenity’s parents did not take many photos while they were still alive.
Smartphones were not popular at that time, so the only photos of her parents left behind were a few which were kept by Liberty.
Serenity had to look at the photos every time to remember what her parents looked like.
Jasmine comforted her friend while she drove.
“Your parents must be up in heaven, blessing you and Liberty.”
Serenity was silent.
If her parents were in heaven blessing them both, the viral incident on Twitter would not have happened.
Serenity and her sisters also would not have suffered through such a tough and pitiful childhood.
Jasmine knew that parents were a heavy topic for her friend, so she quickly changed thesubject.
It took a while to revive the mood.
Jasinine and Serenity went to Liberty’s apartment.
Serenity got out of Jasmine’s car. Her face stiffened when she saw a familiar car parked there. “What’s wrong?”
“That car belongs to Liberty’s sister-in-law. She must’ve come to trouble my sister again. Liberty’s sister-in-law is definitely one of the worst people I know. She’s comparable to the relatives from my hometown.” !
Jasmine said, “Let’s hurry up, then. If she bullies Liberty, we’ll kick her out together!”
Serenity had already grabbed her things to head inside.
Jasmine quickly followed. The Browns visited again. As usual, it was just Chelsea and Mrs. Brown. They came to persuade Liberty to take Hank back from their house.
Hank went to live at his parents’ house but ate his meals at his sister’s house because his parents took care of Chelsea’s children and cooked at her place.
Fortunately, both his parents’ and sister’s houses were close by. They were in the same neighborhood but opposite blocks.
Chelsea watched as her parents bought loads of delicious food for her brother every day. Although her family also ate them, Chelsea was jealous of her parents’ partial treatment of buying expensive food for her brother. Fortunately, Chelsea had a sense of propriety even though she was money hungry, so she did not express her discomfort.
After enjoying the help of her parents for so long, Chelsea was used to the benefits of monopolizing her parents.
Hank was at his parents’ house for a few days, and Chelsea took the most initiative in trying to reconcile Hank and Liberty so he could return to his own home as soon as possible. “Liberty, it’s inevitable for a couple to quarrel and fight. There are only a handful of couples who had never quarreled or fought before. You should get over this after cooling down for a few days. Life has to go on, don’t you think?” Chelsea said. “Hank is a big man with a strong self-esteem, but he actually feels remorseful for hitting you that day. We’re also wrong for taking his side. You should compromise and bring him back. Forget that it ever happened and continue to live a happy life like you always have.”
As soon as Serenity opened the door, she heard Mrs. Brown persuading her sister.
Chelsea said, “Liberty, you should watch out for another woman stealing your husband if you keep giving Hank the cold shoulder. Hank is young and has a promising future. He’s quite handsome and looks like a bachelor. Many young women have a thing for mature men like him with a successful career.” Hank was a manager with a five-figure basic monthly salary. He also made extra money from
commission, which would add up to nearly a hundred thousand dollars a month. . To Chelsea, Hank was considered a man with a successful career. Therefore, Chelsea always looked down on Liberty, thinking that Liberty was not worthy of her brother.
Moreover, Liberty still had yet promised to help take care of Chelsea’s children, which greatly displeased Chelsea.
Chelsea’s oldest child was starting junior high school the next year. Her child’s school pick-up and drop-off problem must be solved quickly. Naturally, Chelsea had to coax Liberty into agreeing. Otherwise, Chelsea would not willingly soften her stance and accompany her mother to persuade Liberty.
Liberty was feeding her son some porridge and did not seem to have not heard her in-laws. “Sonny.”
Mrs. Brown went to play with her grandson when she saw that her daughter-in-law remained silent. “Sonny, do you miss your dad?”
Instead of answering whether he missed his father, Sonny only said, “Daddy work!” Liberty and Serenity raised Sonny, and Sonny only got to see his father on weekends.
When Sonny woke up, his father had already gone to work, and when Sonny fell asleep at night, his father had not come home. Thus, Sonny did not have much of a bond with his father.
Even when Hank was at home, Hank would not play with Sonny and rather play with his phone. “Liberty, look! Sonny grew distant from his dad after being apart for a few days. That’s not good for his growth. A boy can’t grow up without fatherly love. There are many things that fathers need to teach their sons.” Mrs. Brown initially thought that her grandson would say that he missed his father, so she could use it as an excuse to make Liberty compromise for Sonny’s sake.
However, to her surprise, Sonny did not miss Hank.
