Married at First Sight Chapter 1038

Chapter 1038

Liberty had no regrets either.

Duncan frowned. “So why is he always here looking for you? That scumbag treated you poorly back then. Every time I see him, I want to give him a beating to vent some of my anger for you.”

“He wants to use Sonny to improve the hostile relationship between us,” Liberty replied.

Duncan thought for a moment and said, “Their main goal is to get Zachary to forgive them at night. Don’t forgive them; let them remain unemployed forever. Once they’ve spent all their savings, we’ll see if Hank and his wife can continue being as loving to each other as they are now.”

Poor couples have a lot to lose, and Hank and Jessica’s tough times are still ahead of them.

“Now that you have your diner, you can’t and shouldn’t move. Just let them watch as your business grows and thrives. In the future, you can open a large hotel, become a strong independent woman, and a billionaire—let’s see how frustrated they get.”

Liberty laughed. “I also want to open a big hotel in the future and become a billionaire, but let’s see how the diner performs first. My primary goal is to earn back the capital I invested in opening this diner.”

“My second goal is to open a branch.”

Her life goal was to expand her business step by step, ultimately aiming to open a large hotel and succeed in the food and beverage industry.

“When we first divorced, I wanted to cut all ties with the Browns, but my ex-mother-in-law stalked me and discovered that I was opening a diner here and where I’m living now. I couldn’t escape them. Then I realized that cutting all contact isn’t really possible since Sonny is still caught in the middle.”

“Regardless, I won’t let them trample on me again. I’m—”

“I’m not afraid of them coming over occasionally to remind me of their presence,” Liberty said. Duncan pinpointed the issue perfectly when he replied, “They regret their decisions because you have a wealthy aunt and your sister is married to Zachary. They simply want to take advantage of that.”

He continued, “Moreover, you’ve been putting in a lot of effort since leaving the Browns and truly living your life. God rewards hardworking individuals. Your future will be brighter than theirs could ever be.”

“Now, they not only regret their choices but they’re also envious of you,” he added.

Liberty chuckled, “That’s why I say that even divorce isn’t daunting when you encounter a scoundrel. The best revenge is thriving more than he does.”

Even if she hadn’t discovered her rich aunt and her sister wasn’t Zachary’s wife, her life would continue to improve.

“Mr. Lewis, I’m going to prepare dinner for myself and my son. Would you like to join us? Although our meals are usually quite simple.”

“No, thank you. I promised my mother I would have dinner with her tonight. By the way, where have you been all day? When I went to work this morning, your shop wasn’t open, and it was still closed when I got off work this afternoon.”

Duncan passed by this street daily on his way to and from the office, so he didn’t need to pay special attention to notice that Liberty hadn’t been around all day.

“Seren and I took a trip back to our old home. We just returned this afternoon,” she explained.

Duncan nodded with interest and asked, “What was the purpose of your visit?”

“To claim our inheritance and pay our respects to my parents,” Liberty replied.

Duncan nodded again. “Did you succeed?”

He knew that Liberty’s grandparents had completely taken over her family home and even planned to pass it down to John. Liberty paused for a moment.

Before stating, “We’ll take the matter to court. They won’t willingly return the house to us,” Duncan reflected on the Hunts’ recent troubles, which included attempts to extort money from Zachary and efforts to undermine Zachary and Serenity’s marriage. He remarked, “That shameless group certainly won’t return it to you honestly. There’s no reason to spare their feelings. Just sue them and resolve this through the courts.”

“If you need legal assistance, just let me know. I have a legal advisor,” he offered. Although Liberty did not require Duncan’s help, she appreciated the gesture and thanked him.
