Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Chapter 213
Hank turned his head to look in the house. He returned by himself last night.
He only made his way back home because he was persuaded by his parents and sister. Otherwise, he would have chosen to
stay at his parents’ house for a few more days and go out with Jessica unscrupulously. Liberty would usually not go to her in-
laws’ house since she would be nitpicked by her mother-in-law and sister-in -law. She grew annoyed after so many times, so she
refused to visit her in-laws unless absolutely necessary. That was the only reason Hank was audacious to shamelessly go out
with Jessica.
During the few days he took leaves of absence to recuperate at home, Jessica would come over to take care of him when she
got off work. She bought him plenty of supplements and delicious food, and their relationship improved by leaps and bounds. If
Jessica were to insist on him divorcing Liberty because she wanted to be with him officially, they would have rolled around in the
sheets already.
Although Hank did not manage to eat Jessica up, that only made him feel that she was better.
The things he could not obtain would always be the best.
Jessica knew that very well. Even though she and Hank were intimate like husband and wife, she kept the last line of defense
because she did not want to let him have her.
Hank: (She apologized to me and promised not to hit me anymore.)
He lied.
In truth, the couple slept in separate rooms when he returned home yesterday. It was not because Liberty chased him out, but
because he was feeling guilty and afraid. He was worried he would be chopped into a hundred pieces if he fell asleep. Liberty did
not apologize to him either. Instead, she warned him that if he dared get violent with her again, she would chase him down a few
blocks with a kitchen knife so he would lose all his dignity.
Hank was genuinely frightened by how tough Liberty was. Before coming back, his parents reminded him that Liberty would fight
back fiercely, so he should not hit her in the future. That was because no one knew who would emerge victorious in a fight
between a husband and wife. Jessica smiled. ‘Liberty really is a wretch. She was beaten by her husband, yet she apologized to
him.
‘She must still have deep feelings for Hank. Furthermore, she doesn’t have a job and is completely dependent on Hank for
support. ‘Who knew that the Liberty Hunt who everyone in the company once praised as being an exceptional woman would end
up like this one day?’ Jessica thought of how Hank was completely devoted and submissive to her. He often gave her gifts to
make herhappy, but the living expenses he gave Liberty went from three thousand to one thousand five hundred ever since the
couple decided to split costs.
Jessica knew how much Hank earned.

He had such a high income. He only gave his wife one thousand five hundred for living expenses, but he was so generous to
Jessica. This greatly satisfied Jessica’s vanity.
Hank: [I’ll see you at the office, babe.]
Hank heard his son’s cries and ended his chat with Jessica. He put out the cigarette and entered from the balcony. He then said
to his wife who had just walked out of the kitchen, “Don’t worry, Liberty. I’ll go get Sonny.”
Liberty did not refute and let him go to the room to take Sonny.
After Hank clumsily changed his son’s clothes, he carried Sonny out and said to Liberty, “Liberty, go prepare the milk formula. I
don’t know how to do it.”
He had no idea how much water or milk powder to mix. Serenity came out from the kitchen. “I’ll go.”
“Ant Swer.”
As soon as Sonny saw Serenity, he reached out to her, wanting her to carry him. Serenity had no choice but to take him.
Hank was a little embarrassed. He felt as if his son thought Serenity was better than him.
Serenity carried her nephew into the room to prepare the
milk formula.
Hank seemed to have nothing to do.
He could not stay at home, so he said to his wife, who was still busy in the kitchen, “Liberty, I’m going to work. The traffic is
usually the worst on Mondays. I’ll leave early so I don’t get caught in one.”
