Then, Hank said to his mother, “Mom, go shopping with Chelsea. If you see anything you like, just buy it.”He took out his phone and transferred five thousand to his mother for her shopping spree.“Okay. I’ll shop with your sister later and buy some new clothes. Hurry back to work and remember to come home early afterward.”Olivia sent her son out and winked at him to remind him to buy some gifts for Liberty when he got off work.Liberty pushed the stroller over and placed her son into it before saying faintly, “I’ll take Sonny downstairs for a stroll.”“Go ahead,” said Olivia, smiling lovingly.Liberty immediately put her guard up.‘If my mother-in-law is acting like that, she must be planning something against me. More accurately, my mother-in-law and sister-in-law are trying to trouble me again, right?‘No matter what they ask, I won’t agree.’With that thought, Liberty could not be bothered to deal with them anymore and pushed the stroller out of the house.On the other h

Serenity understood why her mother-in-law pretended not to know her and did not take it to heart.After walking back to her parking spot, she unlocked the car and placed the clothes she bought for Zachary on the passenger seat before driving away.A short while later, she arrived at Brynfield. Zachary had yet to return, so she fiddled with her small garden on the balcony.The roses were blooming in overabundance, so she took a pair of scissors to cut a few off. However, she was reluctant to throw them away, so she took them back to the hall to trim them and arranged them into a vase.Ring ring ring...Her cell phone rang.She answered and it was from her neighbor at the store. It was inconvenient to take the pets with her since she was going to shop for Zachary’s clothes, so she asked the neighbor to look after the pets for her.“Mr. Charles, I’m so sorry. I completely forgot. I’ll go over and pick them up now.”Serenity would have forgotten about the pets if she had not receiv

“A surprise for you.”Zachary took the bag and looked at it. “More clothes?”He took out the clothes and looked at them. This time, she was much more generous. All of them were branded goods.“I have no experience in giving gifts to men, so I can’t prepare a big surprise. Small surprises are all I can do. The clothes I gave you last time weren’t expensive. They were just a thousand or so each set, but this time, I bought you something branded. Each set costs more than ten thousand dollars.“Wearing it is like being decked out in money. Isn’t it a surprise? Even at my age, I could never bring myself to wear such expensive clothes.”Zachary smiled. “With your temperament and financial ability, it really is a surprise that you’re willing to buy such expensive clothes for me.”These new sets were many times better than the clothes she gifted him last time.Yes, it was a pleasant surprise indeed.“Thank you for helping my sister collect the evidence of Hank’s infidelity.”“Don’t me

The husband and wife did not mention anything about the cold war they had and reconciled in silence. Serenity originally thought of getting through the six months and forgot about it, but she could not help but feel moved by his concern for her. She wanted to break that half-year agreement.However, she was afraid it was nothing but her own wishful thinking. She feared that if they divorced once the agreement expired and she ended up falling in love with him whereas he did not, she would suffer the pain of losing him and spend a long time forgetting him, all while he lived his new life happily.Falling in love with someone was easy, yet the same could not be said about letting go of someone you love.“Don’t worry, my sister and I will definitely ask for your help if we can’t solve a problem.”Since he was kind, she would respond in like.She added, “I called my sister when she got home, and she’s fine for now. She’s good at enduring, so she won’t act impulsively if she thinks it’s

Hank twisted the door handle but failed to open the door. Liberty had locked the door.He knocked.“Liberty, open up.”Liberty came to open the door, but she blocked the doorway to keep him from entering the room. She asked, “What?”“I have something I want to discuss with you. Let me in.”This was originally the couple’s master bedroom, but now it was occupied by Liberty.Hank was a little displeased, but in order to coax and persuade Liberty to help with the school run for his sister’s children, he held back his temper.“Can’t it wait till tomorrow? It’s already late now.”“It’s only 11. I usually come back during this time after dinner parties.”Liberty guessed that Hank wanted to talk to her about something having to do with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law. She was curious too, so she stepped to the side and said, “Go back to your room to sleep when you’re done.”Hank cursed in his heart, ‘I just couldn’t hold it in that night because I drank... Do you really think I
