Married at First Sight Chapter 924

Chapter 924
Hank shot his sister a disapproving glance.
“Clean up my room, Chelsea. You need to keep an eye on Lucas next time. Don’t turn the place upside down every time you visit. Lucas used to bully Sonny and take his toys. He even lied and hurt Sonny so badly that he ended up in the hospital. I know he’s young, but you should start disciplining him now. You’ll regret not addressing his behavior when he grows up.”
Despite her desire to express her thoughts, Chelsea was reminded of her purpose for being there. Reluctantly, she replied, “Got it. I’ll tidy up your room. That’s just how Lucas is. What can I do about it?”
After calming his wife, Hank turned to his sister and asked, “What brings you here, Chelsea?”
“Your brother-in-law and I are currently unemployed. We haven’t had much luck with job opportunities, and our age isn’t helping either. Employers are looking for candidates under thirty-five, while we’re both in our forties.”
“So now your brother-in-law is considering starting his own business in construction supplies. Many people are buying homes and will need to remodel. I think it’s a promising venture, but we don’t have much capital. We were hoping to borrow some money from you.”
“You have a well-paying job and savings exceeding a million dollars. I believe three hundred thousand dollars would be sufficient for your brother-in-law to launch his business. We’ll pay you back with interest once the business is successful.”
While a hundred thousand dollars would be adequate to establish the business, Chelsea requested more to allow for some budget flexibility.
Since her brother had money, Chelsea aimed to borrow as much as possible.
Upon learning the reason for her sister-in-law’s visit, Jessica let out a long sigh.

Jessica remained silent, awaiting Hank’s response.

Hank said, “It’s great that my brother-in-law wants to try making it on his own, but is it really that costly to start a business? You and my brother-in-law have worked for over a decade, and Mom and Dad have been covering your household expenses. Your savings from that time should exceed three hundred thousand dollars by now.”

Chelsea gasped, but it didn’t take long for her to regain her composure. “My brother-in-law and I have been without an income for months. We’ve been depleting our savings, so there isn’t much left. Plus, I have three children to care for. I can’t exhaust our savings all at once.”

“We haven’t earned much anyway. How much can we save in a year? You’re in a far better financial position than we are.”

“I’m not exaggerating about our finances, Hank. It’s the truth. Your annual income surpasses the combined total of my brother-in-law’s and my salaries over the past decade.”

Hank didn’t believe her words.

While Chelsea may have started with low wages, their salaries had significantly increased in recent years. The couple could easily save over a hundred thousand dollars in a year.

It wasn’t as if his sister couldn’t afford to start her own business.

“Chelsea, you should talk to Jessica. I wouldn’t mind if she wants to lend you the money. She manages our household finances and handles the budget for our home renovation. It simplifies things.”

“I should also mention that Jessica and I lost our jobs today. Since Serenity is married to the heir of the York family, Mr. York is out to get us. The evidence Liberty used against me was given to my boss, who fired us both without any severance.”

Mr. and Mrs. Brown were

Chelsea was speechless. She stared at Jessica, bewildered. Was her brother really that foolish? Why had he given Jessica full financial control? With Jessica now managing the finances, it was obvious that she would never lend Chelsea any money.
