Chapter 406
Married at First Sight
âIs Sonny alright?â
Olivia was indeed a little concerned for her grandson after doing something like that and coming home.
Her other grandson, having fallen sick this time, had made it so that the whole family could not have peace. Just having a recurring fever alone was enough to worry everyone.
Sonny was younger than Lucas by a year. If he had fallen sick too, who knew how much suffering the family would have been put through?
âHe should be fine, I didnât go home and didnât see Sonny. I saw Liberty near the neighborhood going to work like normal.â
After a whole night of suffering and having beaten up both him and Jessica, Liberty could actually still go to work like nothing had happened.
He was alright. Jessica was still cooped up in the hotel, too scared to leave and meet anybody because the handprint on her face had not faded away.
Last night, after Liberty and her sister left, Jessica hugged him and cried for a very long time, saying it was all his fault she had to suffer such humiliation and making him feel pity for her.
This strengthened his will to divorce Liberty.
âThatâs good. I donât have to worry then. I donât feel so good having done something like that either. No matter what, Sonnyâs still my biological grandson. Itâs that mother of his thatâs cruel. Heâs still so young, but she abandons him to go to work.â
Olivia placed all the blame on Liberty.
âHank, tell me why you want to divorce her right away.â
Hank took two puffs of his cigarette, then raised his head to look at his parents. He said feeling a little embarrassed, âJessica and I stayed the night at a hotel last night. Liberty called me, and because Jessica thought Liberty had something urgent to tell me about, she took the call on my behalf.â
âLiberty actually found the hotel. She brought her sister along and the two of them blocked me and Jessica on our way outâ¦
âWe fought very fiercely, and Liberty hit Jessica really badly. Until now, she doesnât dare leave the hotel and meet anyone! Mom, I donât want to be with Liberty anymore. I canât do it even just for another day! I want to divorce her!â
Hankâs parents were speechless.
Mr. Brown suddenly stood up and swung his fist at Hank.
Hank didnât expect his father would hit him, and he so squarely met the fist headâon.
âOld man, what are you doing?!â
Olivia hurriedly set Lucas down and got up to pull her husband away. She stopped him from continuing and explained, âLast time, Hank already said that he no longer loved Liberty and just hadnât brought up the idea of divorce for Sonnyâs sake. With her in that state, Libertyâs no longer a match for Hank either.â
âAm I wrong in disciplining him for turning his back on his family?!â
Mr. Brown added angrily, âWhat will happen to Sonny if they divorce now? Sonnyâs our darling grandson!â
That punch he gave his son was not out of blame for Hank having had an affair, turning hist back on his family, and betraying his marriage. Instead, he was angry that his son had been so impatient and had not been considerate of his grandson.
âSonny will definitely fall to me. Thatâs my son! Liberty isnât capable of raising our son anyway. Dad, donât worry, I wonât let you lose your grandson. When the time comes, if you guys donât want to live with me, Iâll send Sonny over. You guys are raising Lucas anyway, so raising Sonny will be the same, and the cousins will have each other for company.
âOnce Sonny can start kindergarten, he can go with Lucas. Dad, Mom, set all of worries your down. Liberty definitely canât get custody of Sonny.â
Even if Liberty had a job now, she had only started working for a few days. She had not even gotten her first paycheck. How could she measure up to him?
He had already asked someone to help him go to Lewis & Co. to find out what Libertyâs position was and think of a way to get her colleagues on his side to help him punish her, by her making a mistake at work and getting fired.
Although Serenity would help her sister, Serenityâs earnings could not help Liberty fight for Sonnyâs custody.
Hank was not concerned at all that Sonnyâs custody would end up in Libertyâs hands.
Even if he did not have the time nor the thoughtfulness to be involved in his sonâs care, he would much rather send him to his old home for his parents to raise than let Liberty take him
