Chapter 533 “Chelsea said she’s having problems at work. I wonder what happened. I thought she was doing well. What changed?” Mrs. Brown mumbled as she swiftly tapped the call button to connect to her daughter. During the call, Chelsea restlessly uttered, “I don’t know what’s going on, Mom. I have a feeling the people at work are out to get me. They have a bone to pick in everything I do. Not one good thing happened the whole day. Just let the divorce go through if Hank wants it, Mom. Your son is a great man. He’ll have no problems finding another wife.”
“God knows where Liberty found dirt on your brother, and she got enough to threaten your brother to meet all her demands. Liberty gets over a million bucks in alimony, full custody of Sonny, and three thousand dollars a month for child support.” “Does Hank have that much money to give her?” Chelsea was shocked. “Hank had transferred his assets out, but Liberty somehow got proof of the transfer. Never mind. Since trouble at the workplace is putting you down, you don’t have to go with me. Your dad and I will go into the city first thing tomorrow morning to have a chat with Liberty and her sister.” Chelsea replied, “Go for Serenity, Mom. Convincing her is basically convincing Liberty.” “I think so too.” The mother and daughter chatted for a while over the phone before they disconnected the call.
Serenity popped over to Liberty’s place after work to discuss the latter’s housing following the move out of the Browns’ residence.
As expected, Liberty turned down the offer to move into her little sister’s place. She said, “I will have enough money so long as Hank pays up, so I won’t need to move to your place. I’ll rent a place and look around for a property. The money should cover the deposit for a slightly smaller house.
“With the rest of the money, I’ll see if I can continue working at Lewis & Co. In the event I can’t work there anymore, I‘ll quit and run a breakfast place as you’ve suggested.”
Serenity stopped the persuasion and instead said to her sister, “Let me know whenever you’re in need. I can lend you the money.”
“Don’t worry. I won’t hesitate to ask you.”
Serenity stroked her nephew who was nestled in her sister’s arms.
