Chapter 513
Married at First Sight
After a long silence, Hank said, âLiberty, if I agree to your condition of dividing the property, will you really give me all the evidence you have and promise not to report me to my boss?â
âAs long as I get what I deserve, I promise that I wonât take any revenge against you.â
However, Liberty could not guarantee that Serenity or Zachary would not do anything.
After pondering for a while, Hank said, âI can give you the money, but canât give you Sonnyâs custody.
Sonny is my flesh and blood, and my parents love Sonny.â
âI wonât give up on Sonnyâs custody.â
Hank was afraid that if he gave Liberty the custody of Sonny, his parents would kill him when he returned home.
Besides, Sonny was his son and his only child at present, so he was reluctant to give up Sonny.
Liberty raised her hand and splashed her unfinished juice on Hankâs face.
âHank, how do you still have the nerve to fight for Sonnyâs custody? How dare you claim Sonny as your flesh and blood and your parentsâ grandson. Just look at how you all treated Sonny.
âSonny still cries a lot, and the bruises on his face havenât subsided. Didnât you cause enough harm to Sonny? Will you only be satisfied when Sonny dies because of your family?â
Hank looked pathetic with his face stained with juice.
He was also irritated by Libertyâs actions.
Jessica hurriedly took out a tissue and helped him wipe the juice off his face. She then said to Liberty, âDidnât you say you want to talk properly? Why did you splash Hank with juice and stain his suit? Will you pay for his dry cleaning?â
âMs. Yates, I think you havenât figured out the situation yet.â
Liberty said sarcastically, âBefore our divorce is finalized, Hank is legally still my husband, so whatâs his is also mine. Ms. Yates, what right do you have to ask me to pay for his dry cleaning? Who the hell are you?â
Jessica was so angry that her face turned red.
âJessica.â
Hank said gently, âIâm fine. Donât get mad because of her. Otherwise, Iâll feel bad for you.â
Jessica said softly, âBut I feel bad for you.â
Liberty looked with mocking eyes at the two people showing off their affection for each other.
Hank was completely dead to her. Did Hank think that Liberty would get agitated if he and Jessica acted loveyâdovey?
That would just make Liberty nauseous.
âLiberty.â
Hank suppressed his anger and said, âWhat happened with Sonny was an accident. Matthew and Lucas are still young and arenât sensible. Weâve already dealt with them and taught Matthew a lesson.
Matthew apologized to Sonny, and my sister paid fifty thousand dollars for Sonnyâs emotional damage.
âSo, just let it end here, okay? I can guarantee that this wonât happen again. My parents have moved out of my sisterâs house and into my house, so theyâll take care of Sonny wholeheartedly in the future.â
âSonnyâs custody belongs to me.â
âIf you promise to give up on Sonnyâs custody, Iâll transfer half of my savings to you right now. Then, we can go to the City Hall to finalize the divorce.â
It happened to be a Monday, so the City Hall was open.
It was also just after lunch, so they still had time to go through the formalities.
Transferring money to Liberty would also be easy since Hank was a VIP customer in the bank. Thus, he could get the transfer done quickly.
âHank, I want to have a chat with Ms. Yates alone. Please give us some privacy.â
Hank and Jessica looked at each other. Jessica said softly, âDonât worry, I wonât let her bully me. You should go out first. Iâm curious about what she wants from me.â âLiberty, talk properly. Donât use your fists!â
