Sister decided to pursue a career in the food and beverage industry.
“Seren, I’ll talk to you later this afternoon when I’m free.”
Liberty was so busy that she had no time for a phone conversation with her sister.
“I shouldn’t keep you then. Bring Sonny over for lunch later, and I’ll prepare your favorite food.”
Liberty happily agreed to the lunch date, as she needed to discuss taking their relatives to court.
Serenity chose not to mention last night’s incident to avoid worrying her sister.
After ending the call, Liberty returned to her work.
Mrs. Lane was also swamped with tasks. No one was looking after Sonny, but fortunately, he was well-behaved. He was sitting behind the cash register, playing with his toy bricks.
Hank entered the diner and surveyed the tables filled with customers. Some patrons were enjoying their breakfast while others were on their phones, waiting.
It seemed that business was booming.
He felt both stunned and frustrated.
Deep down, Hank hoped Liberty would fail in her business, wishing she would lose her source of income just as he had.
“Sonny.”
Hank was lost in thought but quickly snapped back to reality when he noticed his son sitting alone behind the cash register. He walked over to the boy.
“Dad.”
Sonny felt bored playing by himself while his mother was busy. She had told him that she needed to earn a lot of money to send him to school, so he had to behave and not bother her over minor issues.
However, seeing his dad made Sonny incredibly happy.
He extended his arms for Hank to pick him up. With his eager little eyes fixed on his father, Sonny excitedly asked, “Dad, are you taking me to the zoo to see the tigers?”
His father had mentioned taking him to the zoo to see the tigers the other day.
Despite the day’s events, Sonny decided to accompany his aunt. However, the little boy did not forget his father’s words. Hank replied with a smile, “I’m busy today, son. Can we plan for another time?”
