Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 3899

Married At First Sight Chapter 3899 
Chapter 3899 
Mrs. Lewis, as a mother-in-law, knew better than to meddle in Liberty’s life. Even her extended family, though not particularly close-knit, had the decency to steer clear of unnecessary drama. 
Unlike Chelsea, they didn’t cause trouble just to stir the pot. 
Besides, Liberty had strong support behind her—the York family and a powerful network of businesspeople. Everyone in Wiltspoon knew how fiercely Serenity protected her sister. 
Anyone foolish enough to mess with Liberty would have to deal with Serenity. And if Serenity was ready to go to war, Zachary wouldn’t just sit back and let it happen. 
Liberty exhaled softly, reflecting on her past. “I’m not the same person I used to be. Back then, I let people walk all over me. Looking back now, I can’t believe how naïve I was. I gave up my career to be a full-time housewife, dedicating every moment to my husband and child. And what did I get in return?” 
Her gaze turned somber as she added, “Even my health suffered. I didn’t take care of myself, and I let myself go. I became overweight, and I didn’t care because I thought, I’m married now. I have a son. What does it matter?” 
Liberty shook her head, her voice firmer. “But after the divorce, I woke up. I realized that if I didn’t love myself, how could I expect anyone else to?” 
She straightened her shoulders, her resolve clear. “But it’s all behind me now, Duncan. 
Let’s not dwell on the past. What matters is the life we’re building together.” 
Duncan smiled at her determination. “You’re right. Let’s focus on the future.” 
Meanwhile, Chelsea stood on the balcony of Hank’s apartment, squinting as Liberty and Duncan walked away. Even at a distance, Duncan’s wheelchair made him easily recognizable. 
George stepped outside and joined her. “Didn’t Liberty go upstairs?” he asked quietly. 
Chelsea scoffed. “Of course not. She’s married to that cripple, so she has to keep up appearances.” 
George frowned. “Duncan may be in a wheelchair, but he’s filthy rich. Liberty hit the jackpot. Even as a second marriage, she’s going to live a life of luxury. Some people have all the luck.” 
Chelsea rolled her eyes but couldn’t argue. “It’s all because of Serenity. If her sister hadn’t married into the York family, Liberty would never have met Duncan or had the chance to marry into wealth.” 
George nodded thoughtfully. “Duncan’s legs may be injured, but that doesn’t mean he can’t fulfill his duties as a husband. If Liberty marries him, she’s set for life. Honestly, she’d be a fool not to.” He lowered his voice. “And have you heard the rumors? Liberty and Serenity are supposedly descendants of the Farrell family in Jensburg. Their mother was the Farrell family’s eldest daughter before she passed.” 
Chelsea sighed heavily, a bitter edge in her tone. “Our family really missed the boat. If we’d known Liberty came from such a powerful lineage, and if we’d known Serenity would marry into money, I’d have stopped Hank from divorcing her. I’d have kicked Jessica to the curb myself.” 
Her voice rose with frustration. “We had a goldmine right under our noses and didn’t realize it. Now people mock us for being so blind.” 
Their conversation ended abruptly when Hank returned with Sonny. Chelsea darted inside from the balcony, eager to make a show of her affection. 
As soon as the door opened, she rushed over, dramatically throwing her arms around 
Sonny. “Sonny! You’re finally home! Auntie missed you so much. Did you miss me?” 
Sonny wriggled uncomfortably in her embrace. He knew Auntie Chelsea was the one who always badmouthed his mom and Uncle Duncan. 
“I missed you too, Auntie,” Sonny replied flatly, pulling free from her grip and retreating to Hank’s side. 
Hank picked him up protectively and shot Chelsea a stern look. “Don’t scare him.” 
Mr. and Mrs. Brown soon joined them. Mr. Brown gently pushed Chelsea aside, smiling warmly at Sonny. “Let Grandpa hold him.” 
Sonny hesitated but eventually let his grandfather carry him to the sofa. 
Lucas, meanwhile, sat nearby, stuffing his face with snacks. The table was covered in treats Hank had bought for Sonny’s visit, but Lucas had claimed most of them. 
When Lucas saw Sonny, he didn’t bother saying hello. Instead, he grabbed a plate loaded with snacks and glared at Sonny. “These are all mine,” he announced. 
Sonny frowned, annoyed. Brother Lucas is still as bossy as ever. 
Whenever Sonny visited his dad’s house, Lucas either snatched his toys or hogged the food. 
Sonny glanced around and sighed inwardly. This isn’t really my home, he thought. The house where I live with Mom is my real home.
