Chapter 454
Author: Gu Lingfei
Jasmine did not put on makeup or dress up for the date. She looked the same as usual. Actually, she usually had light makeup on, but at that moment, she was barefaced.

“Ms. Sox, I’m sorry to keep you waiting.”

Jasmine smiled. “I didn’t wait long, Mr. Bucham. Please take a seat.”

Josh sat down opposite Jasmine and handed the rose to her, but Jasmine did not take it from him.

“Mr. Bucham, this flower came from your mouth…”

She did not need to say more.

Josh took the hint and replied, “Next time, I’ll buy a bouquet for you and hold it with my hands. I won’t bite it again.”

“Is your mouth so big that you can bite a bouquet of flowers?”

Josh replied, “No…”

He threw the rose that he had bitten into the trash can under the table.

Seeing that Jasmine had already ordered her coffee, Josh beckoned to the waitress and asked for a cup of coffee.

The waitress brought him his coffee and lingered. Josh smiled and said to the waitress, “I’m on a blind date.”

The waitress blushed and wanted

    Jasmine smiled and said, “If you don’t have any admirers, I’ll think there’s something wrong with you.”Josh said, “I’m absolutely healthy in every way!”“Mr. Bucham, you look healthy on the surface.”Josh opened his mouth but did not know how to answer her.He could not possibly say that she could give him a go to see if he was healthy, right?It was inappropriate to flirt with someone like this on a blind date, so Josh decided to shut his mouth.Josh, who had always been articulate, was suddenly speechless when he was with Jasmine.He thought, ‘This lady who made her name by passing out at a banquet is really something!’…...Grandma May, Mrs. Lane, and Liberty rushed to the hospital as soon as they heard what happened.The police finished taking down the statements and left. Chelsea, George, and Matthew were summoned to the police station.That was when Chelsea found out that her eldest son had caused such big trouble.Chelsea did not dare to tell her brother but told he

    Liberty said, “How could Matthew be a good kid if he has a mother like Chelsea?”Serenity said coldly, “Liberty, we’ve reported this to the police. Although we can’t make Matthew go to jail, we can ask Chelsea and her husband to compensate us. No matter who tries to intercede or apologize, don’t accept it and insist on getting the compensation.”Liberty said fiercely, “How else can we make them pay in addition to the compensation? He beat up my son! Seren, did you break his hands when you saw him?”“Callum and the rest forced George to teach his son a lesson. George beat Matthew to a pulp and slapped him with a belt. Callum said that Matthew was covered in wounds and looked quite wretched after the beating.“They also trashed the Reptons’ house.”Liberty said furiously, “I really want to kill that monster.”Serenity thought the same.However, they had to be rational. They did not touch Matthew but only let George teach Matthew a lesson as a father.After going through so much,

    Zachary was silent and let his brothers make way for Hank.Hank immediately took his parents into the ward.Liberty hugged Sonny, removed the ice pack, and let Hank take a look at Sonny’s face. Sonny’s face was still red and swollen even after having applied ice for some time now.A child’s skin was tender, so it would not heal so soon after being beaten, especially when Matthew pounded him so cruelly.Seeing his son’s swollen small face and fearful eyes that used to be clear and bright, Hank was so distressed that he cursed Matthew. Hank had rarely spent time with his son, but he was heartbroken at the sight of this.“How could Matthew do this?! I really wasted my time raising him.”Mrs. Brown wanted to touch Sonny’s face, but Sonny was so frightened that he immediately turned around and buried his head in his mother’s arms. He clutched his mother’s shirt tightly with both hands and screamed in fear. “Mommy! Mommy!”Liberty slapped away her mother-in-law’s hand and said coldly,

    Sonny did not want Hank to touch him and firmly grabbed onto Liberty’s clothes.Liberty hugged Sonny and avoided Hank’s outstretched hands.“Hank, if you still feel sorry for your son, please take your parents and leave now! I don’t expect you to stand up for Sonny, but don’t scare him anymore. He’s frightened enough…”Liberty choked up again.Hank looked at his son.Mrs. Brown wanted to say something but was held down by her husband. She looked at her husband and saw that his face was gloomy, so she shut her mouth.After a long time, Hank said, “We’ll go back then. Liberty, take good care of Sonny. I promise that I won’t take Sonny away again before his custody is decided.”Even if Hank took Sonny, he had no time to take care of his son. He could not rest assured even if he handed Sonny over to his parents either, not unless his parents moved in with him.However, Jessica said she did not wish to live with her in-laws in the future.Although Hank and Liberty did not agree on

    Hank said, “Chelsea, you’re…”Before Hank could finish, his father, who was sitting in the passenger seat, reached out and snatched Hank’s phone.“Hank, focus on driving.”Mr. Brown instructed his son in a deep voice before he said to his daughter over the phone, “How dare you ask Serenity for compensation?!”Chelsea heard her father’s voice and shouted aggrievedly, “Dad, George was forced to beat up Matthew.”“Your son made a mistake. So what if his father beat him up? I hit you too when you were young and disobedient.”Chelsea said, “Dad, are you alright? Why does it sound like you’re siding with Liberty and her sister? I’m your daughter!“Even if Matthew made a mistake, he’s still a child. How bad of a mistake can he make? He didn’t kill or rob anyone. He just hit Sonny a few times. Matthew said that Lucas was crying because Sonny beat him. He was standing up for his younger brother and kicked Sonny a few times. How could Sonny end up in the hospital? I think they’re just mak

    Mr. Brown added, “So what if they trashed your house? I want to thank Serenity for venting anger on my behalf as well. Chelsea, if you dare ask Serenity for compensation, your mother and I will cut all ties with you. Also, I’ve kept a tab of all the expenses your mother and I have spent on your family, so you have to pay me back!“Since your younger brother had a job, he gave us monthly living expenses that we spent on your household. But look what he got in return! His son was sent to the hospital because of your son!“Don’t accuse Serenity for making a fuss. I’ve asked around myself. Sonny was sent to the emergency room and was treated for a long time. The doctors were cursing the abuser for being ruthless, and I saw how badly Sonny was injured!“We just came out of the hospital. We’re going back to your house to pack our things. Your mom and I will stay in our own home from now on and will no longer babysit your children. Ask your in-laws to babysit them. If not, you can take car

    Serenity and Liberty were unaware of the rare occasion that Mr. Brown sided with Sonny. Sonny’s swollen face subsided slightly after applying the ice pack.He kept crying and wanting to go home.Serenity asked the doctor if they could leave, and the doctor said he could be discharged from the hospital. However, they had to be careful because Sonny might get a fever at night.In the evening, Zachary and his brothers sent Liberty and Sonny home.Serenity was still worried about Sonny, so she brought Zachary to the balcony and said, “Can I stay over with my sister and nephew tonight?”Zachary was reluctant to part with Serenity as he started to have feelings for her and wanted to cling to her 24/7 if he could.However, Serenity was Sonny’s aunt, so he understood that she would want to stay back with Sonny at this time.“Zachary?”Serenity saw his deep eyes that were staring straight at hers. His thin lips were pressed into a straight line, and he did not speak. Thus, she asked c

    Zachary gently let go of Serenity, bowed his head, and looked at her.Serenity gulped.Every time she looked at him, she could not overlook his attractiveness and always wanted to take advantage of him.If he had always been so gentle, she would have jumped him in less than a week.If she was more courageous, she could even try different moves every day.When Serenity was thinking about various ways to sleep with Zachary, Zachary’s deep voice resounded in her ears. He asked, “When did we sign an agreement?”Serenity was speechless.She looked dumbfounded as she was in disbelief that Zachary would say such a thing.“Back when we got our marriage license, you drafted the agreement and asked me to sign it. The contract period was half a year.”Zachary looked calm and said blankly, “Why don’t you recite the content of the agreement for me?”Serenity opened her mouth but could not say a word.After so long, she could not remember much about the contents of the agreement. She only

    Even Corey dared not do anything to Liberty, let alone the relatives. They were not fools.They would not incite arguments like Chelsea. Moreover, Liberty had the backing of the York and Stone families. The Wiltspoonians knew how much Serenity cared about her sister. Serenity would fight anyone who dared harm Liberty. If Serenity wanted to fight, Zachary would not sit still either. “I’m not my past self. I won’t get bullied.“Now that I think about it, I don’t know why I was so stupid back then. I was a housewife whose world revolved around my husband and baby. Even so, I was mistreated.”Liberty did not take care of her health as well. She let herself overeat to the point her weight became unhealthy. At that time, she thought she could afford to gain some weight since she was already married and had given birth. She also stopped dressing up. After the divorce, Liberty realized that women, especially married women, should love themselves. How could a woman expect oth

    “You must come pick me up with Mom, Dunc. Okay?”“Of course.”Duncan could not bear leaving Sonny. He was already missing Sonny even though the little man was still right before him. Sonny slid down and returned to Hank’s side. Hank held his hand. He was about to say something to Duncan but ultimately decided against it. “Sonny and I shall head up now. His grandparents are waiting for him.”Liberty hummed in approval.She and Duncan stood and watched Hank walk away with Sonny. Sonny kept looking back and waving at them. Duncan tried his best to restrain himself from running forward to hug Sonny. He kept chanting mentally, ‘Hank is Sonny’s biological dad.’Letting the father and son reunite once in a while was perfectly normal. As a stepfather, he could not stop Hank and Sonny from hanging out together. Luckily, it was only for two days. Duncan was thankful that Liberty had brought Sonny to FC Manor right after winter vacation started instead of letting the Browns t

    “Dad.”Sonny ran toward Hank when he spotted his father. Hank stepped forward and bent over to lift his son. He then kissed Sonny’s cheeks several times and rubbed his face against Sonny’s. They seemed close.Indeed, Hank had been treating Sonny well. Liberty only pushed Duncan over after Hank and Sonny were done.Hank’s gaze landed on Liberty’s face. She had a rosy complexion and charming eyes. Her expression was gentle, and she had a slight smile. However, it was not because she was being friendly toward Hank. She was simply in a good mood because she and Duncan finally got married and just had their wedding night. “Sorry for making you bring Sonny over, Liberty.”They initially agreed on having Liberty drop Sonny off at the neighborhood’s entrance, where he should have been waiting. However, he missed the timing because he was quarreling with Chelsea. Liberty had no choice but to bring Sonny inside. Hank knew she did not really want to return to the neighborhood, h

    Liberty’s old neighbors even told her how terrible life had been for the Brown family for the past two years. A lady who used to be close to Liberty and Serenity pulled Liberty’s hand. She said, “The Brown family is unfortunate. Your living a better life than them is the best revenge.”Liberty smiled. “I don’t want to get revenge. I just want to live my own life. Whether they’re doing well or not doesn’t concern me.”“Of course. You’re kind and generous. There’s no need to stoop down to their level.”The lady caressed Sonny’s face. “Sonny has grown so much. He’s in preschool now, right? Getting more handsome as he grows. He looks just like you, Liberty.”“Hello,” Sonny greeted the lady. She smiled. “What a good boy.”Sonny had always been an obedient child as she recalled. The residents loved to tease the boy whenever Liberty or Serenity brought him out to play. What was the Brown family thinking? How could they not love such an adorable kid?Mr. and Mrs. Brown would rather

    Sonny nodded. “I know, Mom. I’ll tell Dad to hide the box so Aunt Chel can’t find it. Why does Aunt Chel like taking stuff from Dad’s house?“Lucas used to take my toys too. I even cried. Grandmom said Lucas would return my toy after some time, but he never did.”Although Sonny was only two years old two years ago, he still remembered how his grandmom sided with Lucas. “About Chelsea… That’s something for the adults to think about. You’re still young. Don’t pay any mind to it.”Chelsea’s parents were to blame for her selfish behavior and habit of leeching off her family. Hank also played a part by allowing his parents to spoil his sister. Even he helped her out a lot in the past. Whenever Chelsea visited, he would get Liberty to prepare whatever dishes Chelsea wanted to eat, no matter how expensive they were. He also specifically asked for large portions to be made so that Chelsea could have her fill. Chelsea loved seafood. Her favorites were pricey ones like lobsters and crab

    “Dunc picked me up. He’ll take me to Dad’s place afterward.“Are you feeling unwell, Mom?”Sonny got up and touched Liberty’s forehead, then his own. He even stuck their foreheads together. His mother and Aunt Ser always did the same thing whenever he felt sick. He simply copied what they did.“I’m fine.”Liberty could not tell Sonny that her waist and legs were sore. Instead, she glared at Duncan, who was sitting at the bedside. It was all his fault. He was insatiable. Duncan smiled apologetically. He could not help but indulge himself once he got a taste of pleasure after being single for so long. Liberty was the victim of his hunger. “Then why did you wake up this late? It’s already eleven. I wanted to wake you up, but Dunc didn’t let me. He said you were tired and that I should let you rest,” said Sonny.Liberty lied. “I was on an extended business trip and worked night and day. The things I had to do were endless. I’m too tired. Now that I’m finally on vacatio

    Liberty smiled. “Not yet. Maybe you can continue sleeping in the car until the sun rises.“We’re home. Let’s get out of the car. Even if you’re sleepy, you should still take a bath first. The year is ending in a few days. The weather isn’t that cold now. I checked the weather forecast. It says it’ll rain a little on New Year’s Day, so the temperature might drop slightly.”Duncan sat up and touched his forehead. Indeed, there was some sweat. “It really isn’t cold. I’m even sweating.”Liberty did not turn on the car’s air conditioning. In that weather, it would be cold if the air conditioning was turned on and hot if it was turned off. Thanks to the wind, it was still cooling when the car was moving. However, once the car stopped, it became stuffy inside. Liberty got out of the car and went to the passenger seat to help Duncan. Duncan declined her help and insisted on doing it himself. Then, he held her hand and walked into the house slowly. After heading upstairs, he belatedl

    Liberty did have a fatty liver back then. However, that was resolved after she lost weight. Indeed, having an unhealthy weight could bring about health issues. Purchasing plus-sized clothes was also a problem. Once she started maintaining a healthy weight, she looked fantastic in whatever she wore and often received compliments for having a great figure when shopping for clothes. Most people marveled at her healthy and youthful complexion. She did not look like she was already in her thirties with a four-year-old son. “Do you want to take a nap? There’s heavy traffic ahead.”Liberty saw a stretch of road highlighted in red on the navigation app, signaling slow traffic. “Aren’t most people on holiday and traveling? Why is the traffic still congested?”Duncan muttered, “Maybe there was a car accident.“I don’t need a nap. I’m energetic now. I won’t be able to fall asleep.”He was extremely excited. “If you think I’m too talkative, you can play some music. We can liste

    Since Audrey would take care of Sonny, Liberty and Duncan were in a good mood as they exited the Stones’ residence. Duncan’s bodyguards were to return home instead of following him around. He had Liberty anyway. Besides, it was his and Liberty’s wedding night. They even left Sonny with the Stones, so there was no way he would be letting his bodyguards follow him home. Liberty was the one who drove as Duncan’s legs were still recovering. She would glance at him from time to time. She said, “You’ve been staring at me the entire night. Haven’t you seen enough?“It’s not our first time meeting each other. What’s there to look at?”“You’re beautiful. You’re the most gorgeous woman I’ve ever seen.”Duncan was particularly generous with sweet words that night. To him, his wife was the most beautiful woman in the world. “I can’t get enough of watching you. I controlled myself in Aunt Audrey’s house because I didn’t want her to laugh at me.
