Chapter 119
“Hank, you want to go Dutch with my sister when she doesn‘t have a job. She‘s at home raising your kid, yet you have the nerve to go halves with her. What‘s the point of my sister having a husband then?
“You always say that my sister doesn‘t do anything at home, so she fulfilled your wish and did nothing today. Oh, wait… My sister still did half of the work. At least, she bought the ingredients, measured the pasta, and prepared a pot of water for you. All you need to do is cook it yourself.”
Hank opened his mouth and wanted to say something , but Serenity did not give him a chance to speak. She continued , “Hank, do you think that your house cleans itself every day? Sonny is still young, so when he plays with his toys, he likes to put them all over the floor and he can‘t pick up after himself.
“You don‘t think that those toys put themselves away, do you? Also, who do you think takes care of your meals every day? Isn‘t my sister doing your dirty laundry too?
“Didn‘t my sister make three meals a day for you?
“You only resent my sister for not having a job and income. If it wasn‘t for my sister taking such good care of the household, would you be able to concentrate at work?
“This home is shared by the two of you. My sister is in charge of household matters while you‘re the breadwinner of the family. You can‘t say that my sister doesn‘t do anything for your family just because she doesn‘t have a job. In fact, my sister has it harder than you at work. Why don‘t you and my sister switch roles? You can do laundry, cook, take care of the baby, and clean up the house while my sister goes to work.”
Liberty‘s income before marriage was not much lower than Hank‘s.
Hank opened his mouth several times after being refuted by Serenity, but he was speechless. After a while, he said sheepishly , “Serenity, I only said one sentence, but you gave me such a long lecture as if I‘ve abused your sister. Aren‘t you busy at the store? If your business isn‘t good and you don‘t make much, just close your business and work for someone.
“Isn‘t Zachary working in a big company ? You can ask him to pull some strings so you can join his company. It‘s better to get a few thousand dollars a month than to sustain a business.”
Serenity said coldly, “You don‘t have to worry about my finances. I make enough for my expenses and have some spare change.”

你能用英文写一下角色的名字吗?中文名字很难跟上剧情。谢谢。 Nǐ néng yòng yīngwén xiě yīxià juésè de míngzì ma? Zhōngwén míngzì hěn nán gēn shàng jùqíng. Xièxiè....
请改一下名字。这本小说很难理解。 Qǐng gǎi yīxià míngzì. Zhè běn xiǎoshuō hěn nán lǐjiě....
I hope you’re reading all the comments. Sorry we can’t write the comment in Chinese...
Maybe they have the new english interpreter who do not even check the previous names of the character in the story. The story now is repetetive and not in order. Sometimes, the first to happen came in last. Attention, author and interpreter, kindly take to heart your readers comments....
Please correct the names… it is hard to keep up....
I hope after chapter 4359, next chapter will be Serenity and Zachary which is the famous and interesting novel. If it continues to be a Chinese character you loss your reader. Thanks...
Please use the English names as it is difficult to read and connect....
I am very greatful of your hard work in translating the novel in English, is there any chance you could use the character’s name in English please, it’s hard to follow the story with Chinese names. Thanks...
Please use correct names and watch the repeating of pages....
Thank you for the story, its going on well, however the changing of names somehow makes it difficult to follow. Even learning the new ones that you have tried to match, it is extremely difficult to follow and enjoy the drama while trying to go back to rechecking who we are talking about. The title is still Married at first sight (Serenity and Zachary) but they no longer exist in the whole picture. You created a dynamic community which I am sure everyone felt they lived and travelled with. We appreciate all the effort and your insight. I am very grateful for this novel is very captivating....
