Married at First Sight Chapter 249

Chapter 249

“Liberty is unattractive and overweight. If I take her there, I’ll just end up embarrassed. Everyone will laugh at me,” Hank said. As he finished speaking, he playfully pinched Jessica’s pretty face and added, “How can she compare to you, Jessica? You’re my pride and joy now, and I’ve moved on from her.”

“I can’t forgive her for chasing me down the street with a kitchen knife. Even though she’s apologized and treated me better since then, I just can’t overlook what happened. If I hadn’t run fast enough that day, she might have actually killed me!”

“She’s truly dangerous. After knowing her for so many years, I only realized how vicious she could be that day. If it weren’t for Sonny, I wouldn’t want to return to that house at all. Plus, my mother and sister have mentioned that I bought the house before marriage, covering the down payment and mortgage, so why should I let her live there?”

“Her relationship with my family is not good. Jessica, you’ve met my parents and sister. What do you think of them?”

Jessica considered this and replied, “They’re decent people. Your parents, sister, and brother-in-law are all friendly and polite.”

She was particularly attentive to Hank in the presence of the Browns, ensuring he was well cared for. The Browns were perceptive, so it was clear they recognized her relationship with Hank.

While the Browns weren’t overly enthusiastic about her, they also didn’t show hostility, as she was Hank’s girlfriend. They remained courteous.

Later on, when Mrs. Brown noticed Jessica’s extra kindness toward Hank, her attitude toward Jessica improved significantly. Chelsea even took Jessica shopping, treating her to some expensive new clothes.

“My family is really nice. They typically treat Liberty well, but she doesn’t get along with them. She speaks ill of my parents and…

about it anymore. It sounds like Liberty is a real piece of work.”

In brief, she believes that everyone in my family is terrible and that she is the best person in the world. If Liberty were to hear this, she would be furious.

The Browns excel at pretending. Liberty had been in the workforce for several years and was not naive, yet she was deceived by Hank and his family. Before their marriage, Hank’s family treated her kindly, and this continued into the first year of their union.

Liberty thought she had married the right person. After Sonny was born, the Browns likely believed that having a child would stabilize Hank and Liberty’s marriage, which led them to reveal their true nature.

“Your family is so nice. Is Liberty still not satisfied? She’s asking for too much,” Jessica remarked, striving to outdo Liberty in every aspect.

“Perhaps it’s because of her sister. After Liberty and I got married, her sister moved in with us. Although my sister-in-law contributed some living expenses, it was only $2,000 a month. What good is that? Everything is so expensive now!”

“I grew impatient after she had been living with us for a long time. My sister-in-law was sensible and decided to move out on her own, but Liberty threw tantrums. I previously mentioned that we fought because she was upset, thinking I kicked her sister out, and as a result, she refused to cook for me.”

“She didn’t do my laundry and only completed half of the household chores, expecting me to handle the rest. I’m so busy at work, and I have to deal with her attitude when I come home. That’s why we argued, and I hit her in a moment of anger. Who would have thought she’d go so far? She grabbed a kitchen knife and chased me down the street. If I hadn’t run as fast as I did, you might have been speaking about me at my funeral.”

After hearing this, Jessica felt a pang of sympathy and said, “My dear, you’ve certainly had a hard time. Let’s not dwell on it any longer.”

I don’t want to talk about her anymore to avoid spoiling your good mood. What time is the reception tonight? I don’t have a gown…”

“It begins at half past seven. Don’t worry. I’ll take you out now to buy two outfits. We might need to attend such events more frequently in the future, so it’s best to have two options.”

Hank was frugal with Liberty. After recovering at his parents’ house following his confrontation with Liberty, he requested that she reimburse him for his share of the living expenses. In contrast, he was extremely generous to Jessica.
