Filed to story: The Disguised Billionaire and His Accidental Wife Novel
While Sonny was asleep, Liberty left Mrs. Lane at home to look after Sonny, so she could wait for Hank and Jessica here.
Liberty only lay in wait here for them because she deduced through the information and evidence provided by Zachary that Hank often brought Jessica to dine at the Wilt spoon Hotel.
Although she had a falling out with Hank, it still hurt Liberty badly. After tying the knot with Hank, Liberty gave him a son, ran the household, and often attended to the needs of his parents and sister’s family. Yet, Hank would accuse her of financial dependence, spending money recklessly, and doing nothing at home.
Hank called her useless and a glutton because Liberty frequently asked Serenity for help even though she was only looking after a child.
Liberty would not be able to produce enough milk if she did not consume more food. Hank criticized her for trying to starve their son. Sonny was breastfed until a year old.
Hank was stingy toward his wife. On the rare occasion of a good mood, he would take her out to the food trucks. The place could fill her belly without costing a lot.
However, Hank would often bring Jessica to dine at the Wiltspoon Hotel, check on Jessica’s well–being, send gifts, and treat her like a princess.
Seeing that it was Liberty, Jessica tauntingly clung onto Hank’s arm.
Liberty did not miss her provoking gesture.
Hank stopped in his tracks before leading Jessica to draw close to Liberty. He asked coldly, What are you doing here? Where’s Sonny? Didn’t you say that Sonny couldn’t leave your side since he’s scared stiff?
“Your sister demanded fifty thousand dollars from my sister as compensation for Sonny’s mental anguish. What? Are you passing the buck on Sonny now that you have the money?
You‘re just using Sonny as an excuse to ask for more money, right?”
Solemnity was written all over Liberty’s eyes.
Raising her hand, she gave Hank a slap on the cheek.
Smack!
A vivid handprint emerged on Hank‘s face.
“Are you even human, Hank?”
Liberty resentfully had her finger up at Hank‘s nose as she yelled, “You don‘t even feel sorry that your son was beaten up by your nephew. Never mind that you didn‘t stand up for Sonny, but you were throwing out cynical remarks when my sister sought justice for Sonny. You‘re less than scum!”
Jessica tried to push Liberty and lashed out, “Fat cow! Who are you to touch my man?”
Liberty retaliated by shoving Jessica out of the way and slapping her too. She smirked. “He‘s the husband of a fat cow like me so long as we aren‘t divorced. Who do you think you are?”
Jessica wanted to hit back.
“Jessica.”
Hank pulled Jessica behind him to protect her before saying to Liberty, “Why were you waiting for us here?”
Liberty replied with an equally icy tone, “We need to talk. Come with me.”
She then turned on her heel and went off.
Spotting her sister‘s car by chance, Liberty paused her footsteps but soon continued her journey to her bike.
Her sister had enough trouble in the last two days because of her. Liberty decided not to bother her sister today.
Jessica gave Hank a tug and asked, “What does the fat cow want to talk to us about?”
“She didn‘t agree to my terms of the divorce. I guess it‘s probably to further talk about the divorce.”
The divorce proceedings would take some time.
Liberty probably did not want to wait for another second after what happened to Sonny.
Hank took Jessica to his car. Once they got into the car, Hank leaned over and heartbrokenly caressed Jessica‘s face. “Does it hurt?”
“What about you?”
Hank felt his own cheek. “It hurts, but the thing with Sonny got her riled up. I can take a slap from her so she could let off steam.”
Jessica touched where she was slapped and said, “Hank, since she‘s in a rush to finalize the divorce, the odds are in your favor to name your terms. It‘d be best if she gets nothing.
“Let her go to court to file for divorce if she‘s not willing to accept your terms. We have the time and money to drag this out.” .
Hank answered, “Sure. Let‘s go see what she wants to talk about.”
The pair believed they had the upper hand on Liberty as Liberty was in a hurry to divorce. They could make Liberty leave the marriage without a penny to her name.
With that in mind, Jessica stroked her cheek with her lips curling up smugly
Liberty picked a milkshake café to have the discussion with the scumbag and wh*re.
After taking a seat, Liberty asked for juice and watched aloofly as Hank entered the café arm in arm with Jessica
They were acting mushy to get to her head.
Liberty smirked. She should thank Jessica for showing her the nasty side of Hank. She was happy to give up this kind of man to Jessica.
As Hank and Jessica approached, they caught sight of a yellow envelope on the table.
With his eyes gleaming, Hank sat down and nonchalantly asked, “What is this?”
Liberty slid the yellow envelope across the table to Hank.
Hank thought it was the divorce papers signed by Liberty. However, he realized that was not the case as the envelope was heavy when he picked it up.
Curious, Jessica drew close to see what was inside the envelope.
“Hank, we can revisit our discussion regarding the divorce after you read the contents.” Liberty picked her glass of juice up for a sip. “The one you’re holding is a copy. The original file is with me. You can tear it up if you want. I can make more copies of it.”
Color drained from his face as he read the stuff inside the envelope.
It was proof of his cheating and transfer of assets. There was a record of the gifts and money spent on Jessica. Liberty knew about everything.
“Hank, do you think you can dismiss me with thirty thousand dollars if I file a divorce along with the evidence?”
Liberty was pleased to watch Hank’s expression turning black.
Picking his head up, Hank gave Liberty the evil eye.
Liberty showed no fear as she looked him back straight in the eye.
“Who gave this to you, Liberty?”
The content included receipts of his commissions and money saved in his father’s bank account. There was evidence that he saved all the money in an account under his father’s name.
Hank had only told Jessica about this. Apart from his father who knew a little about the secret stash, none of his family members was aware of the bank account. Although his father knew about the bank account, he had no clue as to how much was saved in there. How did Liberty collect the evidence?
