Jessica put out her cigarette and said, “Your parents and your sister are your family. They’re the ones who want the best for you. You should consider their suggestions more.”
The next moment, she said coquettishly, “We’ve already gone this far, Hank. Shall I rent out my apartment and move into your house?”
Hank kissed her and said placatingly, “Not yet. We’ll live together when I finish the divorce procedure with Liberty.”
He also promised, “Don’t worry, I won’t give the house to Liberty. I’ll keep the house and the car and just deposit some savings to her superficially. Jessica, I’ll make sure our future life is worry–free. I’ll marry you in an honorable manner.”
Jessica was relieved. “My parents are always asking when we’ll get married. They say you’re too good, and others will snatch you away.”
She did not dare let her parents know that she was actually interfering in someone else’s marriage. She lied to them that Hank was still unmarried.
Hank was only thirty and had a successful career, so her parents believed her when she said he was single. They bragged about how she had found a capable boyfriend in front of their friends and relatives.
“We’ll get a marriage license immediately after I get divorced, and then we’ll hold a grand wedding.”
Jessica kissed his face and said softly, “I’ll wait for you.”
The two billed and cooed for a while, then Hank rolled out of bed to draft the divorce agreement.
After writing it, he gave it to Jessica to read.
Hank only thought of himself, so the divorce agreement was quite satisfactory to Jessica. The only thing she was unhappy about was that he wanted to keep Sonny.
In her heart, Jessica hoped that Hank would give up custody of Sonny and let Liberty take him away. That way, she would not have to see that eyesore.
Who wanted to take in and raise a child that was not their own?
She was still young, and Hank was not too old either. They would have their own children after marriage. When they did, Sonny would become even more of an eyesore.
Jessica was upset but did not show it. After all, she was not his wife yet, so she could not say too much lest Hank resent her. Her future husband’s family might also have a problem with her.
Sonny was just over two years old. He was not sensible yet and could not take care of himself. If he lived under her hands, she had plenty of opportunities to deal with him, so there was no hurry.
“No problem.”
Jessica handed the divorce agreement back to Hank. “I’ll print two copies for you. Take them to Liberty tomorrow and have her sign them, one for each of you. On Monday, hurry and go to the City Hall to file for divorce.”
Hank laughed. “I’m more impatient than you are.”
“I’m not impatient.”
Jessica laughed as she helped Hank print the divorce papers.
That night, the two people dreamed beautifully, thinking about their happy life after marriage.
The night passed without a word.
The next day, Serenity woke up and saw the note Zachary left on the dresser. She quickly picked up her phone and called Jasmine.
“Seren, I’m still sleeping.”
Jasmine’s eyes were not even open yet. She yawned while saying, “I slept late last night.”
Serenity laughed. “I figured you’re not up yet. You wouldn’t be able to read if I sent you a message, so I called you instead. Zachary left me a note saying his colleague will be waiting for you at Beans and Cream at 10 this morning. He’ll be holding a red rose in his hand.”
“I would’ve forgotten about the blind date if you didn’t remind me.”
Jasmine opened her eyes and sat up. “Beans and Cream again? Okay, I got it. I won’t be late.”
At most, she would leave early.
“Set your alarm and go back to sleep for a little longer. I won’t bother you.”
“You’re not coming with me?”
Jasmine was always accompanied by Serenity every time she went on a blind date.
Serenity’s relaxed tone turned heavy, and she said, “My sister will be discussing the divorce with Hank today. I’m my sister’s only family, so I have to be there.”
“You’re right. You need to help Liberty out. Don’t let her be bullied by the Browns. Yesterday evening, your scumbag brother–in–law went to our shop and wanted to pick Sonny up, saying that Sonny’s grandparents missed him.
“I couldn’t be bothered with him. When he didn’t see Sonny in the shop and I kept ignoring him, he left resentfully. You were on a getaway, so I only told Liberty.”
Serenity sneered. “They miss Sonny? If they really miss him,
they wouldn’t have tried to make him sick. I think he just wants to take Sonny away to blackmail my sister into making concessions or leaving without a penny to her name.”
Hank had an affair and was caught by Liberty. He was at fault.
When a divorce lawsuit was filed and properties divided, he should give her more money.
However, how would jerks like the Browns be willing to give money to Liberty? They just wanted to use Sonny to blackmail her into giving in.
Serenity hated people like Hank the most. He neglected his child but wanted to fight for custody during the divorce, as if he would die if he lost the child. In fact, he was just using the child as a bargaining chip.
If he really won custody, he would just turn around and send the child away, neglecting them again.
“Seren, will Sonny be in danger? Why don’t you discuss it with your sister and send Sonny to a safe place to live for a few days? Send him somewhere the Brown family can’t find or won’t dare to go to, lest they threaten your sister with him.”
Serenity asked, “Where can we send Sonny to?”
Hank knew where Serenity lived.
They did not have anyone they could depend on in their hometown either. Not to mention Liberty, even Serenity would not be at ease.
Jasmine reminded Serenity. “What about Elisa? You can ask Elisa for a favor. She’s the Stone Group’s heiress and lives in a large villa with high security. Moreover, with the Stone Group’s prestige, the Browns wouldn’t dare go and make a scene.
“They wouldn’t expect Sonny to be with the Stones. Elisa likes Sonny very much too, so she’ll definitely take good care of Sonny.”
Love this story. Waiting for more.
