Chapter 517
Author: Gu Lingfei
Hank was waiting outside, but he kept staring at the two women in the café for fear that Liberty would suddenly go mad and beat up Jessica.

He was relieved when he saw Jessica coming out and hurried over to meet her.

“Jessica, she didn’t do anything to you, did she?”

Jessica touched her face and said, “Just the slap from earlier. After you left, she didn’t touch me again.”

Hank was slapped by Liberty too.

He was distressed as he said, “Jessica, I won’t let her touch you ever again.”

He then asked, “What did she say to you?”

Jessica looked around. The two of them were standing on the sidewalk with many passersby, but no one paid any attention to them.

When she saw Hank’s concerned eyes, she asked, “Hank, do you want to see me suffer?”

“Why would I want to see you suffer? I want to divorce Liberty because I don’t want you to suffer anymore.”

Hank took her hand. “Jessica, did she yell at you? I’ll go in there and settle this with her.”

“No, it’s not that.”

Jessica pulled Hank

    Jessica pouted and said, “Anyway, I don’t want Sonny to share too much of your fatherly love with my future child.”She did not want Hank to spend his money on Sonny.Jessica hoped that Hank’s future income would be spent on their small family–her and her children.“Liberty gave birth to Sonny, so she’ll definitely do her best to raise him and educate him well. It’ll be better for Sonny’s development. If you fight for Sonny’s custody, your parents will take care of him. Do you think your parents can educate Sonny well?“A lot of grandparents spoil their grandchildren. Of course, if you want to see Sonny become someone who achieves nothing in the future, then forget what I said. I just think it’s better for Sonny to follow Liberty. You’re so busy with work, so how can you have time to teach Sonny?“Children need a lot of attention and care. It takes a lot of effort to educate and nurture them. If Sonny didn’t turn out to be successful, others will put the blame on you and me. They’

    Liberty heard what Hank said. Although she was disappointed that they could not finalize the divorce right away, she still agreed to his arrangements since it was only another day’s wait.She handed the two signed divorce agreements to Hank and said, “Take a look. If there’s no problem, just sign your name.”Hank took over the divorce agreement.In addition to the conditions she stated earlier, Liberty also promised that she would destroy all the evidence she had on the day of their divorce and promised that she would not take revenge on him.Hank was fine with it. He was just sad that he had to give Liberty more than a million dollars and his son’s custody.However, after some thought, Hank knew that he would earn the money back, so he just had to put up with it.“I’ll sign it.”Hank said in a deep voice, “See you tomorrow.”Liberty nodded.Hank looked at her deeply for a moment before he hugged Jessica and prepared to leave.After taking two steps, Hank stopped and turned h

    Liberty’s tears suddenly streamed down her face.Her mother was unaware that her sister never gave up looking for her when she was alive.She did not get to reunite with her sister before she died.“Seren, spend some time with Mrs. Stone. I’m going back to see Sonny.”Liberty said as she suppressed the pain and quickly hung up the phone.She then squatted on the ground and covered her face to cry.Many passersby looked at her, but no one stopped for her.The owner of the café saw Liberty and knew that Liberty had borrowed her laptop to print out a divorce agreement. She thought Liberty was upset because of the divorce, so she came out with a box of tissues.“Miss…”The café owner patted Liberty on the shoulder. When Liberty looked up at her, she handed the tissues to Liberty and comforted her. “He doesn’t care about you anymore, so you should let him go. That way, you’ll feel better, and you can start a new life.“If you’re sad, cry it all out. You’ll feel better afterward.”

    Liberty nodded and answered, “I took a few days off. Sonny was frightened, so I wanted to stay with him.”“Then what are you doing here? Where’s your son?”Liberty was speechless.Should she tell the truth?Duncan looked around, but he did not see the strong and smart little boy.However, the boy was afraid of him. Every time he saw Duncan, he was so afraid that he would burrow into Liberty’s arms as if Duncan was the devil.“Sonny is taking a nap at home. Mrs. Lane is watching him, so I came out to run some errands.”Duncan hummed and asked, “What kind of errands?”When Liberty hesitated to speak, he laughed and said, “If you can’t tell me, then forget it. I was just being nosy because I happened to see you passing by and remembered that you took leave.“Well, carry on with your business. I’ll leave now.”Duncan retracted the large hand that was on Liberty’s bike, turned around, and left.“Take care, Mr. Lewis,” said Liberty.Duncan did not look back but raised his hand in

    He could still act.“Josh and Callum, you two accompany the clients back to the company. I’ll go over and talk to Serenity.”Zachary instructed the two in a low voice then walked toward Serenity in large strides.The bodyguards naturally did not dare follow him.“Did Mr. York see someone he knows?”The few clients watched in amazement as they saw Zachary walk toward an unfamiliar woman.After all, unless it was family, he usually kept women at least three meters away from him.“Yeah, they’re acquaintances.”Josh smiled and ushered the clients toward their cars.Seeing that Josh did not plan to elaborate, they knew their place and stopped asking.“Seren.”Zachary walked up to Serenity and stretched out his arms to straighten her jacket. “What are you doing here? Did you come here just to wait for me because you knew I was meeting clients for business here?”The rain stopped at noon but it was still cold.Serenity saw the throng of men in suits getting in their luxury cars a

    Earlier when the entourage appeared, Serenity did not notice Jim leaving to the back of the hotel to hide.She also had no idea that the man sitting beside her, who had been caring for her and gave her all the tingly warmth in the cold, was actually a superb actor. She said to Zachary, “My sister called earlier. She and Hank had agreed on the conditions for the divorce.”“How did it go?”“All the properties under Hank’s name will be divided equally with my sister. She’s not asking for the house and car, but he has to compensate an additional sum of money to her. Sonny’s custody will belong to my sister, and he has to pay three thousand per month for child support.“His request is that my sister will give him the evidence against him, including all copies she made. He also made her promise not to retaliate against him after the divorce.”“What did your sister say then?”“She agreed, but she only promised that she would not retaliate against him herself.”“She’s giving us the ch

    “Liberty is still going through the divorce and hasn’t completely secured her job yet. Let’s help her pay for the rent in the meantime.”Zachary was more than willing to simply hand over a house for his sister-in-law and her son to live in. Liberty was the person closest to his wife, so he would not mistreat her.However, he could not do that now.Thinking of the sisters’ characters, even if he gave Liberty a house, she would not accept it.“My sister will get more than one million dollars worth of assets from Hank. She won’t let us pay the rent for her.”The sisters supported each other, but they would not take it for granted.Both the sisters would not pluck the moon from the sky for each other to go overboard in providing help; they simply respected and supported each other where necessary.Zachary did not say anything.Soon, they arrived at York Corporation.Zachary stopped the car and looked sideways at Serenity.Serenity was looking at him too and grinned. “We’re at you

    Feeling Serenity’s concern for him, Zachary said in a warm voice, “I have a dinner party tonight, so I won’t be home early. You don’t have to wait for me. Go to bed early, but sleep in my room.”His handsome face turned slightly red as he said the last sentence.That was because he remembered how he was the one who told her that his room was off limits and had forbidden her from entering his room.Now, he was the one asking her to enter his room.Serenity smiled. “Sure. I’ll leave the door unlocked for you. Hurry up and go in. Don’t stand here in the cold wind.”Zachary turned around reluctantly and went into the building.Serenity watched his handsome figure walk farther away before driving away.After entering the office building, Zachary saw Josh standing there, looking at him with a smile.Zachary was speechless.‘This gossiper!’He shot a side glance at Josh and walked straight ahead.Josh did not care about how Zachary looked at him and he followed suit.

    “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?

    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
