Grandma May patted his shoulder. “Go get her! You have my moral support in chasing after your wife!”Zachary said, “Nana, I sense the sarcasm in your tone.”Grandma May’s eyes twinkled, but she denied it and said, “Do you, now? How am I being sarcastic?”“I said before that I won’t pursue my wife...”“Ah, now that you’ve reminded me, you did indeed mention… Either way, haven’t you been eating your words recently? Once you get used to it, nothing would come as a surprise anymore the more you eat your words.”Zachary was speechless.Was she his nana or not?After bickering with Nana and listening to her reminisce about the past he was not privy to, Zachary somewhat understood why she insisted that he marry Serenity.It was because of his grandfather’s last words and that nameless fortune-teller, who said that Serenity and he were destined to be husband and wife, so his nana stubbornly insisted on him marrying Serenity.Of course, Zachary was grateful to that fortune-teller now.
Chapter 858
“Daddy,” Sonny called Hank.Hank took two steps forward, picked his son up, and teased him for a while. When Liberty parked the e-bike, he said, “Your granddad took some of your cousins to my office to look for me.”Liberty frowned. “What for?”She already divorced Hank.Right before the divorce was finalized, her granddad even took a sum of money from her ex-mother-in-law amounting to several tens of thousands.She wondered if her ex-mother-in-law managed to get the money back.Probably not.There was no way money that went into her granddad’s pocket could come back out again.Both parties were brazen and shameless. It would definitely be fun watching them tear into each other. It was a shame she could not witness it.“I’m guessing they came to town to find Serenity after finding out that she’s Mr. York’s wife. They couldn’t find her—Serenity’s store wasn’t open, so they went to Brynfield, but they couldn’t enter. Serenity isn’t answering their calls either.“They wanted to
Chapter 859
As Jessica was not yet pregnant, Hank was afraid that his relationship with Sonny would become increasingly distant.That was especially so when he saw Liberty and Duncan together. Even if he felt that Duncan could not possibly like Liberty, he was still worried that his son would call another man “father”.He wanted to take the opportunity to take Sonny with him and raise him for a period of time, so as to cultivate their relationship as father and son.He wanted to let Jessica get along with Sonny too. If Jessica could not get pregnant, and Liberty wanted to remarry, he would fight for Sonny’s custody and take him back.Hank was still Sonny’s father, after all. In no way Hank could allow Sonny to call another man his father.“They already know we’re divorced—why would they pester me? Even if they come, I’m not afraid of them. Sonny isn’t close enough to you all. Besides, you just married that Yates girl. What will she think if you take Sonny back with you?“You’ll have a child

“Yeah.”Sonny wrapped his arms around Serenity’s neck and returned her kisses with several of his own on her cheek, making Serenity’s heart burst with joy and love for this little cutie.“Why are you back so late, Liberty? I finished making dinner long ago,” Serenity asked her sister while hugging her nephew.“The interior designer finished work late, so I had to leave a little later as well. I was thinking of coming back to cook for you, but you already did.”Serenity said, “I just suffered some emotional hurt. It’s not like I’m sick. You don’t need to cook for me.”Liberty walked over and looked at the painting Serenity made. It was a hairpin.“Your drawing sucks when you’re not in a good mood. Stop drawing for now.”Liberty helped her sister put the drawing board away. “Did you go out for a walk today?”“I didn’t want to move, so I slept all day.”“Take a walk tomorrow. You’ll just feel worse if you stay cooped up at home all day.”Serenity hummed. “I’ll go back to work to

The moment Serenity opened the door, a palm swung toward her.She reacted quickly and caught the hand.It was Jessica.Jessica thought the person who came to open the door would be Liberty and raised a hand to slap the moment the door opened. She did not expect it to be Serenity instead. Serenity learned kickboxing and had quick reflexes, so she did not get hit.“It’s you?“What are you doing here?”Jessica saw that it was Serenity.Serenity shoved Jessica and her hand aside, resulting in her taking a few steps back and creating space between them both.“Where’s Liberty? Tell her to get out here. She seduced my husband!”After work, Hank left her behind at the office in a hurry.Jessica was already furious when the Hunt family came to the company to find Hank and called him brother-in-law.Hank and Liberty were divorced. How did they get the nerve to call Hank their brother-in-law? Did they want Hank and Liberty to remarry?Her in-laws thought that way, and so did the Hunt

Jessica knew she was being ridiculous. Whatever she was spouting was nonsense.She was just angry.In the past, Hank used to say that he would lose his appetite when he came home and saw how fat Liberty was.After the divorce, Hank kept looking for Liberty, and Liberty kept losing weight. She had lost tens of pounds in just two months but Liberty was still a fat woman if she were to be compared to a supermodel.However, for an ordinary person, Liberty just looked slightly chubby.Jessica felt that Hank came looking for Liberty because the latter lost weight and looked much better than when she got divorced.Liberty walked over.When Jessica saw her, she looked at Liberty with resentment and fury, and shouted fiercely, “Liberty, I’m not afraid just because you have a rich aunt. I’m not afraid that your brother-in-law is Mr. York either. I’ll tear you apart if you dare seduce my husband.”Liberty was highly amused and said, “Ms. Yates, are you feeling insecure because you stole s
Chapter 863
“Ms. Yates, you can go back and question your husband if you don’t believe it. Why are you here to question my sister instead? You need to get this into your head. It was your husband who came to my sister, not the other way around.”Serenity could not help but add, “If you’re that insecure, cut off your husband’s legs to make sure he can only stay by your side in the future.”“Move out, Liberty. Move far away from here and don’t let my mother-in-law find out. That way, Hank won’t come to see you.” Jessica ignored Serenity’s mockery. Right now, the person she was most jealous of was Serenity.She was prettier and younger than Serenity, but it was Serenity who married Mr. York.Serenity’s life was too good to be true.Just what did Mr. York see in her?It was not just Jessica who had those thoughts. Many people did not understand what it was about Serenity that moved Mr. York’s heart and how she became his most beloved.Before Liberty could say anything, Serenity got furious and

Serenity hung up the video call.Zachary muttered, “She won’t even let me see Sonny.”If he had known, he would have kept teasing Sonny. That way, he could let Serenity hear his voice.Liberty looked at her sister but remained silent. She did not ask a single question since she brought her sister home. Serenity would naturally talk to her when she wanted to.When she saw her son’s mouth covered in gravy, she laughed and wiped the gravy from his face.Serenity wanted to go out after dinner.“Where are you going?” Liberty asked while washing the dishes.“I just want to go out for some air. I’ll use your e-bike.”“Stay close. The battery might not last. If you go too far and run out of battery, you’ll have to push the bike the rest of the way. Put on a jacket. It’s windy outside.”“Got it.”“Don’t ask Jasmine out for drinks. Zachary is worried about you, and I promised him I won’t let you drive recklessly or go drinking.”Serenity’s mood soured again at the mention of Zachary’s
