Chapter 761
Curling her lips, Liberty said, “I heard things aren’t going well for both of you at work. One of these days, you might just find
yourselves without a job. You’ll only have access to an empty bank account. What’s there to brag about?
“Although we paid for our half of the expenses, I got a million bucks off him during the divorce. My life with my son won’t be
affected even when he’s out of employment.”
Jessica was lost for words.
Hank pulled a sour face. “What do you mean by out of employment? We’re doing fine at our jobs, thank you very much.”
Serenity chimed in, “Your mom said otherwise. She’s been at my sister’s place nearly every day to rant about a mistress having
you under a spell. She said Ms. Yates’s a prodigal who doesn’t care that money doesn’t grow on trees. Your mom even
commented that Ms. Yates’s parents are selling their daughter instead of marrying off their daughter. Apparently, her family is
money hungry.”
Jessica scowled.
Agreeing that the Yates family was demanding a lot, Hank did not refute it.
Hank could afford the Yateses‘ wedding demands, but he was reluctant to give in to all their terms because the total cost was
rather high. Hank still needed to pay for the home renovation.
Plus, the wedding and reception cost a lot. It made Hank think twice about offering additional financial support to the Yateses.
As mentioned by his mother, he could marry into prestige with 777,777 bucks, but could Jessica bring him prestige?
His mom also talked about Jessica’s integrity. Jessica was cognizant that he was married with a son, yet she got involved with
him anyway. Even though Hank fell for Jessica first, it took two to tango.
Jessica would have handed in her resignation and stayed away unless she got her eye on him too.
His mom said it was cheap of Jessica. She may be pretty, but it did not change the fact that she was a wh*re. Jessica could not
compare to Liberty.
“Liberty, I need to get a lot more stuff. Let’s carry on our shopping.”
With her attempt to drive a wedge a success, Serenity called her sister and pushed the cart away.
Hank came over to give his son a cuddle, but he was so preoccupied with criticizing Liberty that he did not manage to hold
Sonny.
“Hank, you should tell your mom off when we get back home. She shouldn’t be going to Liberty. I thought she didn’t like Liberty.
“Also, your mom shouldn’t be telling the world about us and airing dirty laundry. She should know that. I wouldn’t be that angry if
she told an outsider, but she went to Liberty. Liberty must be laughing at us. How embarrassing is that for me?”
Jessica always thought herself to be a winner before Liberty.
Hank treated her so much better than Liberty, and it gave Jessica something to brag about when she ran into Liberty.
However, Mrs. Brown went to speak ill of her to Liberty, and it undermined Jessica.
Liberty must be gloating.
Pushing the shopping cart ahead, Hank uttered, “My mom has nothing better to do. She just wants to pour her feelings out to
someone, but she only knows Liberty in the city. That’s why she went to her.”
