Chapter 760
Married at First Sight
âYou got it wrong, Mr. Brown. Iâm the one buying the gifts for my inâlaws, not my sister.â
Serenity offhandedly added, âEven if my sisterâs buying gifts, sheâs not spending your money. Nobody wants your two cents.â
To think Hank expected her sister to make a note of every expense for Sonnyâs upkeep.
Hank was a loser for sure!
Mrs. Brown had the nerve to persuade Liberty to get back together with Hank. Did Mrs. Brown think her son was the last man left on earth?
It was freaking hilarious.
âYours? Why are you getting your inâlaws so much?â
Hank was surprised.
He thought the sisters would be preparing gifts for the Stones.
It never crossed his mind that Serenity was getting gifts for her inâlaws.
Tch. Serenity turned out to be quite generous.
Come to think about it, where did Serenity get the money from? Did she ask her sister for money to buy Christmas gifts?
âI can get as many as I want. Itâs none of your business. You can let the lady next to you know if youâre jealous. Tell her to learn from me and be generous to spend some cash on the inâlaws. Only the best for the inâlaws, am I right?â
Hank turned to Jessica.
Jessica was fuming.
She had a bit of savings since she had been in the workforce for many years. Her parents and brothers knew nothing about it, and Jessica wanted to keep it that way in case her parents would take her money to give to her brothers.
Jessica would not even spend her money on her family, so why would she splurge on the Browns?
âHank and I arenât married. Iâm not part of the Brown family yet.â
As Jessica was reluctant to present her inâlaws with gifts, she stuck to her story that she had not married into the family yet.
Liberty glanced at Hank and curled a fake smile. âIâd give your parents and sister expensive gifts even before we were married. Your parents praised me, calling me sensible and wellâmannered.â
In other words, Jessica was not sensible and wellâmannered to skimp on the gifts.
Jessica felt a rush of blood to her head.
The fat cow was taunting her.
She snapped a biting remark, âWell, you may be sensible and wellâmannered, but Hank dumped you anyway.â
Unfazed by the sarcasm, Liberty smiled. âI wasnât dumped. I asked for a divorce because he was tainted. Ms. Yates, I should thank you. I wouldnât be able to get rid of him if you didnât take over. You got him, and I got a wad of cash out of it. Iâm living the life now.
âLife has never been better!â
Liberty had it easy after leaving Hank. At least, she no longer had to wait on Hankâs hand and foot or deal with her parents-in-law. She escaped her motherâinâlaw and sisterâinâlawâs nitpicking.
With the Brownsâ characters coming to mind, Jessica had to admit that Liberty did the right thing by leaving Hank and staying away from his family.
âHank and I are getting married on Valentineâs Day.â
Changing the topic, Jessica began bragging to Liberty about getting her happy ending with Hank.
âHankâs giving my parents a lump sum of 777,777 dollars. You tore the previous house down, but itâs a good thing because I didnât like the design. Iâm going to have our marital home renovated. Hank said my name will be on the title deed. âIâll have access to his bank account too, unlike you who had to split everything.â
