Chapter 1355
Hank said on the other end of the line, “Sonny is three years old and is my son, so what’s wrong with him being my flower boy? Where are you and Sonny? I’m at the door of your rented unit and have been hitting the door but nobody is answering. You’re not inside, right?”
Jessica was standing next to him as she listened to his conversation with Liberty.
She rested for a few days after her fight with her sister–in–law the other day, so the bruises on her face were gone.
Hank bought two more sets of skin care products for Jessica and reluctantly gave her a jewelry set to coax her.
Moreover, Hank told his parents and sister that he and Jessica had gotten their marriage license and that Jessica was set on living the rest of her life with him. Since their wedding was approaching, he asked his parents and sister not to pick on Jessica anymore.
He also blamed them for his divorce from Liberty back then. He asked his parents, “Do you want me to divorce again? Think about the cost of my divorce from Liberty. Do you want me to do it again?
“If I divorce again, I’ll be a laughing stock. People will say that I deserve it and that it is karma. They’ll say that I’m a twice–divorced man. Also, if you keep fighting with Jessica and causing trouble, who would still want to let their daughter marry me? You’re my family, and yet you always think of dragging me down instead of thinking for me. Are you only going to be satisfied if I live alone for the rest of my life?”
Hank’s parents stopped after hearing what he said. They also began cooking Jessica’s share of meals.
As for Hank’s sister who kept stirring up trouble, she was kicked out by their father. She was ordered not to come to the city before the wedding and could only come on that day to attend the wedding.
“Tell Liberty that we’re going to pick up Sonny,” Jessica said softly.
When she went for her morning run earlier, she received another note from that unknown woman. The woman asked her to find a way to take Sonny away from Liberty as soon as possible without choosing a location. As long as Sonny was taken away from Liberty, someone would “snatch” him from Hank and Jessica.
