Married at First Sight Chapter 1217

Chapter 1217
They resided in a small community where paths frequently crossed. Eventually, their paths would intersect.
Liberty was a divorcee, and Mrs. Lewis mentioned her only briefly. Lily recalled a little about Liberty, mainly because she was Serenity’s sister.
“Yes, she divorced recently. Her husband had an affair, and I heard he was also violent toward her. He wanted to split living expenses, even though Liberty stayed home to raise their son and was considered a housewife. It was clear his desire to go Dutch stemmed from his dislike for her, but she didn’t see it.”
“I heard she discovered his infidelity only after receiving proof of his affair. He was very stingy with her, yet he purchased luxury items for his mistress.”
“Women, especially those who are married, need to practice self-love. If you don’t know how to love yourself, you can’t expect your husband to love and cherish you. It’s important to strive for financial independence. If that’s not possible, at least try to take control of the family’s finances.”
“There’s no need to manage your husband’s money for him. If you save excessively, he’ll likely just spend his money on someone else. If you attempt to save for him while neglecting to buy new clothes or cosmetics for yourself, he may think you don’t care about your appearance. He could perceive you as unattractive and refuse to take you out because he feels embarrassed.”
Mrs. Lewis criticized Liberty for ending up divorced because she didn’t know how to love herself after marriage. Then she addressed Lily, saying, “Don’t worry, Lily. Duncan isn’t that kind of man.”
“If you marry Duncan, we will be very open-minded and won’t prevent you from working. You’ll still have the freedom to do as you please.”

“We all support you,” Mrs. Lewis reassured Lily, one of the pivotal figures at Harmon Corporation. She recognized that someone like Lily was unlikely to become a traditional housewife after marriage, so she wanted to ease any concerns Lily might have.

As Lily drove, she laughed, saying, “Mrs. Lewis, Duncan keeps avoiding me. I think it’s going to take a long time for me to win him over.”

“I agree with you,” Mrs. Lewis responded. “Was Liberty even heavier in the past? She still looks quite chubby now.”

Liberty had not fully shed her excess weight, and in comparison to someone like Lily, who had a great figure, Liberty seemed overweight. Lily thought little of Liberty’s divorce; she believed there was no chance Duncan would marry a divorced single mother, and the Lewis family elders would certainly disapprove.

Moreover, Liberty’s extra weight didn’t fit Duncan’s high standards. He was so selective that he didn’t even show interest in Lily, so it was hard to imagine him being attracted to someone like Liberty, who was overweight, divorced, and already had a child.

Lily felt that Duncan only spoke to Liberty out of consideration for Zachary, who was, after all, her brother-in-law. Zachary spoiled his wife, prompting Duncan to show respect towards her sister-in-law, especially since Liberty cared for Serenity like a mother.

“Duncan is very kind to Liberty’s son,” Mrs. Lewis noted, surprised to see how fond her youngest son had become of a child.

Lily commented, “Little kids are adorable; everyone loves them.”

Mrs. Lewis cast a glance at Lily but remained silent.

Lily was convinced that Duncan would never be interested in a divorced woman, so she dismissed any thoughts about Liberty. However, Mrs. Lewis, as a mother who knew her son well, sensed that Duncan’s attention towards Liberty and her son was a bit more than just polite concern.

After some contemplation,

She took out her phone and called someone to ask about Liberty’s current situation.
