Chapter 409
Married at First Sight
Mr. Brown continued to say, âItâs fine even if you give a little more money to Liberty. We shouldnât be too unrelenting and should leave a way out for ourselves. Then weâll be able to meet amiably in the future, but Sonny must return to us!â
Sonny was a Brown, after all!
âDad, I guarantee you that Iâll definitely get custody of Sonny.â
âBefore the two of you are divorced, I donât believe your guarantee. Itâs better if you get Sonny to come and stay with us and let your mother and I take care of him. Iâll only stop worrying then.â
Hank said helplessly, âDad, you and Mom have never taken care of Sonny. If I bring him over, and he canât get used to it and makes a fuss, what then?
Olivia rallied. âThatâs exactly why we have to take him in now to nurture the bond. In the future, when you get married again, will that Yates woman be willing to take care of him? Sonny will definitely end up with your dad and I. Weâre his biological grandparents, after all.â
âHow many kind stepmothers are there out there? And anyway, you and that Yates woman are both still young. Youâll very quickly have your own kid between the two of you. Sonny wasnât born by the Yates womanâshe definitely wonât treat Sonny well.â
Never having taken care of Sonny before was one thing but Hankâs parents were still more concerned about their grandson being abused by his future stepmother.
In recent years, there had been a lot of news about stepmothers abusing kids borne by the husbandâs previous wife. Some had only been a few years old when the stepmothers abused. them to death.
Once there was a stepmother, there would be a stepchild. Who knew how their own child would treat Sonny in the future?
Sonny was their first grandson. Hankâs parents viewed him with great importance.
âYour father and I have some retirement funds, and weâre not too old yet. As long as our bodies are healthy, we can still raise Sonny. In the future, youâll only need to pay for his living expenses and his school fees.â
Hank thought for a moment and said, âFine. Iâll go home tonight and bring Sonny over tomorrow for you guys to take care of him.â
Hankâs parents only then felt relieved when he agreed.
Serenity and her sister knew early on that the Browns would put up a fight when it came to a divorce.
Serenity slept for almost half the day at the shop to recover her mental strength. It was already past eleven when she woke up.
Seeing Jasmine play with Sonny and Sonny laughing uncontrollably, Serenity felt a little sad in her heart. Once her sister were to go through with the divorce, Sonny would no longer have a complete family.
Divorce, no matter who it came to, whether adult or child, was a form of harm.
âYouâre up,â Jasmine said as she smiled.
âIf youâre still sleepy, you can sleep for a little while longer. Once Mrs. Laneâs done making lunch, Iâll wake you up to eat.â
âI feel much better already after sleeping for half a day.â
Sonny walked over. âAnt Swer.â
Serenity picked him up, and he asked, âAnt Swer, are you sick? Why are you always sleeping?â
He even mimicked the way his mother normally felt his forehead and touched Serenityâs forehead.
He then touched his own forehead but did not know what to say.
This action of his made Serenity laugh and hug him tightly. Once Serenity loosened her grip, she said while smiling, âIâm not sick. I didnât sleep well last night, so Iâm making up for it now. Thatâs why I was sleeping so much.â
âWhy didnât you sleep well last night?â
Sonny felt that once he climbed onto the bed, as long his mother was by his side, he could sleep extremely well.
Was Ant Swer unable to sleep well because she did not have her mother by her side?
He had never seen Ant Swerâs mother before.
His mother said Ant Swerâs mother was his maternal grandmother.
âBecause I was thinking of how to make money, make lots of money and become a rich woman! Thatâs why I didnât sleep well.â
Sonny blinked, and wanted to reply, but was kind of stumped on what he should say. The torn look on his face was incredibly hilarious to witness.
âHas Sonny eaten?â
Sonny rubbed his tummy and replied, âJazz fed me! Sonnyâs full.â
Serenity laughed and put him down. âThen Sonny can keep playing. I need to make a call.â
âOkay.â
The little kid obediently walked back to Jasmine and let Jasmine play with him. Serenity placed a call to Zachary.
