Married At First Sight Chapter 3889 
Chapter 3889 
Jessica sat silently for a moment before asking, “So you cried so hard because Liberty remarried? You know there’s no chance for you to remarry her now.” 
“Jessica, no,” Hank stammered, his voice rising slightly. “I’ve never even thought about remarrying Liberty. That’s impossible. I’m going to wait for you to get out, no matter how long it takes. I’ll wait for you.” 
Jessica didn’t blink. She simply stared at him as he rushed to explain. 
“I’m sad about Liberty’s remarriage, yes, but it’s because she took Sonny with her. My son will live with another man now. What if Sonny starts calling Duncan ‘Dad’? I barely get to see Sonny as it is—I’m terrified he’ll grow closer to Duncan than to me, his real father.” 
Jessica’s cold gaze lingered on Hank before she finally responded. “Then spend more time with Sonny when you’re free. Even if he’s your son by blood, your bond won’t mean much if you don’t nurture it.” 
She paused before asking, “Who did Liberty marry? The fourth young master of the Lewis family?” 
“Who else?” Hank said bitterly. “Duncan Lewis. He’s been hovering around Liberty for years. Anytime a man so much as looked her way, Duncan made sure to scare them off. He’s been waiting for this.” 
Jessica’s lips twitched into a faint, sardonic smile. “Well, good for them. Lovers becoming a couple—it’s poetic, really. Duncan Lewis is reliable. Liberty made the right choice. She’s far luckier than I am.” 
Without waiting for a response, Jessica placed the receiver back on its hook. She stood up, her chair scraping the floor, and turned her back on Hank. 
“Jessica, wait—” Hank called after her, standing up, but she didn’t look back. 
“Jessica, I’ll wait for you! I promise! You’re all I have. Please, focus on reforming yourself. I’ll be here when you get out.” 
Jessica didn’t react. She walked away with the guard, her posture rigid, her face unreadable. 
Hank sat back down, his hands trembling. Did she hear him? Did it matter if she did? 
As Jessica walked away, her thoughts churned. Wrong person. Wrong choice. Wrong life. 
If only she had ignored Hank’s advances back then. If only she’d left the company when she noticed his interest. None of this would’ve happened. 
Liberty, on the other hand, had escaped. She had clawed her way out of the toxic grasp of the Brown family and into a better life. Jessica had done the opposite—she’d walked straight into the fire, and now she was burned beyond repair. 
Liberty’s remarriage to Duncan Lewis felt like the final nail in the coffin of Jessica’s envy. Liberty, like her sister Serenity, had become a phoenix. They had both risen from hardship to claim lives that others could only dream of. 
For Jessica, it was hard to accept how fate seemed to favor those two sisters. God, she thought bitterly, must play favorites. 
Liberty had no idea that Hank had been waiting outside the Civil Affairs Bureau, watching her and Duncan sign their marriage certificate. She didn’t know about his tears or his swollen eyes. 
For her, life moved forward. She, Duncan, and Sonny returned to the Lewis family’s home, where a small celebration was in full swing. Relatives and friends gathered to congratulate the newlyweds, filling the house with laughter and joy. 
After spending the afternoon at the Lewis home, the little family visited the Stone family. As night fell, Liberty’s aunt, Audrey, gently suggested something to Sonny. 
“Sonny, why don’t you stay with me tonight? Keep your Grandma Audrey company. You haven’t visited me since winter break, and I know you love playing with your little brother. Wouldn’t it be fun to spend the night here?” Sonny hesitated, clearly tempted by the offer. 
He turned to Liberty, his eyes wide. “Mom, can I? Please? You can come get me tomorrow before we go see Dad.”
