Chapter 1689
Married at First Sight
Chelsea smiled awkwardly. After glancing at Sonny, she said, âAfter all, Sonny needs a father.â
âDoesnât he have a father now? No matter how my relationship with Hank turns out, Hank is still Sonnyâs father. This is a fact.â
âNo, no. I didnât mean that. I think Sonny will only be happy if he grows up in a complete family.â
âI think Sonny is happy now. Heâs always happy. In the past, when his father was busy with work and spending time with other women, he hardly spent time with Sonny. Even now, his father only came to visit him occasionally. How is it different from before?
âSonny has long since gotten used to not having his fatherâs company. With Seren and I spending time with him, heâs carefree. Heâs living happily and healthily.â
Chelsea was at a loss for words.
She knew that settling the issue by involving Sonny would not work.
The Browns were unwilling to give up. They had tried to persuade Liberty countless times, but it was fruitless.
Hank regretted it, but he knew Liberty well. Even if he backslid and pursued Liberty again, it would not stand him in good stead.
âIf you sincerely want to help your brother, youâd better not meddle in his affairs. Donât badmouth your sisterâinâlaw in front of your parents and sow discord. This way, Hankâs life will get better. Otherwise, Hank will still end up in the same situation no matter how many different wives he gets.
âI donât understand your mindset. You only have one brother. Your parents are slowly aging. By the time your parents pass away, who will entertain you when you return to your hometown? Itâs your brother and your sisterâinâlaw. Now that you keep causing trouble for your sisterâinâlaw and turning against her, are you planning not to return to your hometown after your parents pass away?
âAs Jessicaâs sisterâinâlaw, itâs best you avoid meddling in your brotherâs marriage. Do watch your mouth. Donât band together with your parents to turn against your sisterâinâlaw. Are you happy to have caused your brother to divorce once? Do you want to make him divorce a few more times?â
Liberty continued, âYou have children yourself. Your daughter is in her teens, and sheâll get married about a decade later. What would you think if your daughter always returns and tears your son and your daughterâinâlaw apart?â
Chelsea said, âLiberty, are you standing up for Jessica? She is so spiteful and evil. She nearly snatched Lucas away. I hate her to the core. I swore that Iâll torture her.â
âIâm not standing up for Jessica. Iâm just pointing out the root cause. Hank and I ended in a divorce because of your family too. It was Jessicaâs choice back then that ended her in this situation.â
You reap what you sow. Jessica had no one but herself to blame.
Chelseaâs face turned red. She was speechless.
After a while, she said, âLiberty, Iâll buy something and get back to the hospital. I told my mom that I left the hospital to get something. No one looks after that spiteful woman now. Who would care about her apart from my mom and I?â
With that, Chelsea left hurriedly before Liberty could say anything.
After watching Chelsea leave, Sonny walked to Liberty and asked, âMom, why did Aunt Chel come?â
âNothing much. She came to visit you.â
Sonny hummed in acknowledgment without doubting his motherâs words.
Chelsea treated him very well. At least she would not bring Lucas over to snatch his things.
With Jessicaâs miscarriage, she would soon be punished again. Liberty did not pity Jessica at all.
Although Liberty tried to advise Chelsea just now, she was not sure if Chelsea would listen to her.
Based on Chelseaâs personality, Liberty supposed that Chelsea would not listen to her. When Jessica went back to jail, Liberty was quite certain that the Browns would force Hank to divorce Jessica.
Previously, Jessica chose to be with Hank, who was already married, and came this far little by little.
She could not return to her hometown as her family was angry with her.
She could not stay in her inâlawsâ house either. Her life was miserable.
In fact, Jessica was capable at work since she was young and pretty. She had chosen the wrong path by ruining Hank and Libertyâs marriage and becoming the other woman. If she had chosen to stay away from Hank and marry a single man, her life would definitely be different.
Jessica was targeting Hankâs status and identity earlier, fervently hoping to settle down in the city. She didnât sleep with Hank at first, and only did so after he had a bitter row with Liberty.
