Married at First Sight Chapter 505
“Is Shawn gone?” Zachary had not forgotten about his love rival. “I didn’t see him when I came back. Are you still jealous?” Zachary fell silent for a while before replying, “Well, you said that’s how I am. I guess jealousy might become a habit of mine.” Josh and Grandma May would be throwing shade at him if they were around. Serenity chuckled. “I should make you eat your greens every day then.” Since he enjoyed turning green with envy, she might as well serve up all the greens he could eat. “I love to eat whatever you make me.” “Zachary, you sure have honeyed lips. What’s up with all the sweet talk recently?” Zachary twitched by the corner of his lips. Nana often complained about his lack of sweet nothings to Serenity. Now that he had given it a go, Serenity fussed about his honeyed lips. She probably did not like sweet talk. “I don’t want to take up more of your time.” “Okay.” Serenity was the first to end the call. Zachary moved the phone away from his ear
Married at First Sight Chapter 506
With tears running down Mrs. Stone’s face, Serenity handed her a tissue and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, Mrs. Stone.” “Serenity.” Mrs. Stone held her hands, choking in sobs. “I’m sorry about your childhood. I didn’t find you quick enough. Maybe your mom wouldn’t have died if I tracked you down sooner.” Had her sister been located sooner, Mrs. Stone would have brought her to live in the city. Then, her sister would never have lost her life, together with her husband, in a tragic car accident in the little town. Although the DNA test had not been done, Serenity felt a lump in her throat and her eyes welling up after listening to what Mrs. Stone had to say. It would be great if her mom was still alive. “Stop crying, Mom. Dad told me to keep an eye on you and not to let you cry. You had been crying all day yesterday.”Elisa took the tissue from Serenity and patted her mother’s tears dry while consoling her, “Mom, you can take the DNA test with Serenity. If it comes back po

While on the way to the DNA testing center, Serenity received a wired transfer from Zachary for fifty thousand dollars. Afraid that she might not accept the money, Zachary included a text message to her. “Seren, I’ll take it as you don’t see me as your husband if you don’t accept the money. The husband is supposed to make money for the wife to spend.” Serenity read the text message and had a big smile on her face. Zachary had learned to guilt her into accepting things. She was not in a hurry to accept the transaction. Once at the DNA testing center, she waited until Mrs. Stone’s and her blood were drawn before accepting the fifty thousand dollars. With the money her husband gave, Serenity generously took Mrs. Stone and her daughter to have lunch at a five-star hotel. The five-star hotel Serenity was most familiar with in all of Wiltspoon was the Wiltspoon Hotel. The Wiltspoon Hotel was a hotel under York Corporation’s flagship. The Yorks and the Stones were not on good

“Alright. I got it. Carry on with your work.” Catching up to the group, Callum approached his cousin and said, “Zack, Mr. Zen told me that he saw your wife with Mrs. Stone and Miss Stone a few minutes ago. They picked the supreme lounge for lunch.” The lounge was the most exclusive private dining room at the Wiltspoon Hotel. Those with thin wallets would not pick the supreme lounge to dine in. Nevertheless, Serenity had to pick the supreme lounge to wine and dine with Mrs. Stone. “Got it.” Zachary was not at all surprised by the news. “We won’t run into each other,” Zachary commented in a husky voice. He would normally take the clients to the presidential suite on the top floor which was on a different floor from the supreme lounge. Zachary had a private lift that was not available to hotel guests unless he brought them in himself. There was no chance for the couple to meet unless it was at the lift. Callum kept his mouth shut, seeing that his cousin was confident.

“Do you think we’d turn out fine if Serenity’s husband was related to the wealthiest Yorks? Your sister-in-law would’ve trampled all over us with the help of Mr. York.” Thinking about the bad things he had done, Hank believed Jessica had a point. Hence, he quickly let go of the matter. Mr. York was way up there while Serenity was not even worth the mention. She was not blessed in life to become Mr. York’s wife. The pair were lovey-dovey as they walked out of the hotel. Hank and Jessica came across Liberty at the hotel entrance. Liberty was alone. 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 Wiltspoon 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

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 abo

Liberty said, “It’s none of your business where I got these, Hank. If I showed your boss all the commissions you’ve been taking, do you think you can still be a manager at Waltham Electronics?”Serenity reminded Liberty not to show Hank the evidence but to scare him verbally.Liberty knew Hank well enough and felt that Hank would not feel threatened if there was no evidence. So, she made a copy of the evidence that Zachary’s friend had collected.Even if Hank tore it up, she could still make a lot of copies.With such evidence, Hank was willing to give in and discuss the divorce terms with Liberty just so he could keep his job.Liberty had no idea that Zachary had instructed Josh to suppress Waltham Electronics and what awaited Hank and Jessica was an employee termination letter.Hank’s expression was extremely distressed as he stared at Liberty.Liberty used to work at Waltham Electronics as a finance director. At that time, she was more capable than Hank and he could not admit

However, her beauty faded as she gained weight.Hank was responsible for Liberty's deterioration.“Liberty, what do you want?” Hank softened his tone and asked.“Give me the original copy of this evidence and I’ll try to meet your request as best as I can. Then, we can part on good terms.”Now, Hank had nearly two million dollars in savings.If he did not talk it out with Liberty, she would sue him, and the evidence she had was to her advantage. Hank was at a disadvantage, and the court would most likely force him to share half of his assets with Liberty.If Liberty handed over the evidence of Hank accepting commissions to Hank’s boss, Hank would not be able to keep his managerial position even if his boss did not fire him.Besides, Hank received commissions from his customers and helped them do things that cost the company losses. If his boss investigated him and found out about this, Hank would not be able to keep his job.His boss might even spread the word about his behavio

“Sonny is still a child. As his aunt, you didn’t even prepare a Christmas gift for him, and you have the nerve to ask him for one?! Have you even prepared gifts for your mother and me?“Liberty is rich now because of her capability. Now that she’s well-off, you expect her to prepare Christmas gifts for you, her former sister-in-law? Who do you think you are?“She treated you so well in the past that she would buy and cook whatever you wanted when you visited. Though the money came from Hank’s earnings, if Liberty hadn’t been willing to do it, do you think Hank could have done anything about it?“She shouldn’t have been so good to you and allowed you to get used to it. You’re always trying to take advantage of others when she doesn’t owe you anything. Hank and Liberty are divorced now! But even if they’re still married, how do you have the gall to take so many things from us when you come home empty-handed?“Let me ask you—have you ever left empty-handed from here? Even a roll of to

If it were not for the fear that his mother would scold him when they got home, Lucas would have rushed over to have a go at Sonny. He would just wait until the adults were busy and their attention diverted settling the score with Sonny. It was just a two-day visit, but Sonny made it seem like he was the crown prince back from winning the war.“Sonny, didn’t you bring any Christmas gifts for your dad or Granddad and Grandmom? I’m really craving steak. Your mom knows I love steak, but she didn’t even prepare a big box of prime Kobe beef cuts for you to bring back.”Chelsea opened Sonny’s small suitcase and looked through it. Besides Sonny’s clothes, there were only a few toys. She was about to open the three gift boxes to check what was inside, but Hank quickly smacked her hand aside.“These are the supplements Sonny brought for me and our parents,” Hank said. He then hurriedly took the boxes back to his room. Chelsea was like a thief—if the things were not locked away in his roo

Luke and Olivia came over as well. Luke pushed Chelsea aside and said, “Move to the side. Don’t scare Sonny.”The old couple was all smiles when they turned to face Sonny. They fought over who to carry Sonny, but the little guy ultimately chose Luke. To him, his grandmom was the same as Aunt Chel. Granddad was much better. Luke sat on the sofa with Sonny in his arms. Lucas was also sitting on the sofa and eating snacks.Hank had bought those for Sonny when he returned. When Lucas saw Sonny, he did not greet or hug him like brothers usually do. Instead, he quickly took the plate filled with snacks away and said, “These are all mine.”Sonny frowned. Lucas was still as bossy and gluttonous as before. Whenever Lucas came to his house, he snatched his toys or food. ‘Oh, it’s Dad’s house,’ thought Sonny. It could not be considered his house. The place where he and his mother lived was his home. “Lucas.”Chelsea scolded her son, “Your uncle bought those snacks for Sonny.

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
