Married at First Sight Chapter 409

Chapter 409

Mr. Brown continued, “It’s perfectly acceptable to give a little extra money to Liberty. We shouldn’t be too rigid; we should leave ourselves some options. This way, we can have amicable interactions in the future, but Sonny must return to us!”

After all, Sonny was a Brown!

“Dad, I promise I will definitely gain custody of Sonny.”

“Until you two are officially divorced, I can’t trust that promise. It would be better if you brought Sonny to stay with us, allowing your mother and me to care for him. Only then will I feel at ease.”

Hank responded with exasperation, “Dad, you and Mom have never taken care of Sonny. If I bring him over and he struggles to adjust, causing a scene, what then?”

Olivia chimed in, “That’s precisely why we need to take him in now—to strengthen the bond. When you remarry, will that Yates woman want to care for him? Sonny will certainly end up with your father and me. We are his biological grandparents, after all.”

“How many kind stepmothers are out there? Besides, you and that Yates woman are still young. You’ll likely have your own child soon. Sonny wasn’t born of the Yates woman—she certainly won’t treat him well.”

While Hank’s parents had never cared for Sonny before, they were still primarily concerned about the possibility of their grandson being mistreated by a future stepmother.

In recent years, there had been numerous reports of stepmothers abusing children from their husband’s previous marriages. Some of these children were only a few years old when they suffered fatal abuse.

With a stepmother comes a stepchild. Who knows how their own child might treat Sonny in the future?

Sonny was their first grandson, and Hank’s parents held him in high regard.

“Your father and I have…

Some retirement funds are in place, and we’re still relatively young. As long as we stay healthy, we can continue to care for Sonny. In the future, you’ll only need to cover his living expenses and school fees.”

Hank paused for a moment before responding, “Alright. I’ll head home tonight and bring Sonny over tomorrow for you to take care of him.”

Only then did Hank’s parents feel a sense of relief after his agreement.

Serenity and her sister anticipated that the Browns would resist the divorce.

Serenity slept for nearly half the day at the shop to regain her mental strength, waking up well past eleven.

Watching Jasmine play with Sonny, who was laughing uncontrollably, stirred a bit of sadness in Serenity. Once her sister proceeded with the divorce, Sonny would no longer have a complete family.

Divorce, regardless of whether it affects adults or children, inflicts a certain level of harm.

“You’re awake,” Jasmine said with a smile.

“If you’re still feeling sleepy, you can rest a bit longer. I’ll wake you up for lunch once Mrs. Lane is done cooking.”

“I feel much better after sleeping for half the day.”

Sonny approached and said, “Aunt Swer.”

Serenity picked him up, and he asked, “Aunt Swer, are you sick? Why are you always sleeping?”

He even imitated how his mother usually checked for fever by feeling Serenity’s forehead.

He then touched his own forehead but was at a loss for words.

His actions made Serenity laugh, and she hugged him tightly. When she finally released him, she smiled and said, “I’m not sick. I just didn’t sleep well last night, so I’m catching up on rest now.”

“Why didn’t you sleep well last night?”

Sonny felt that as long as he climbed into bed with his mother by his side, he

She could sleep very well.
Was Ant Swer unable to sleep because her mother was not by her side?
He had never seen Ant Swer’s mother before.
His mother mentioned that Ant Swer’s mother was his maternal grandmother.
“I couldn’t sleep well because I was thinking about how to make money, lots of money, and become a wealthy woman!”
Sonny blinked, wanting to respond, but he was unsure of what to say. The confused expression on his face was quite amusing to see.
“Has Sonny eaten?”
Sonny rubbed his tummy and replied, “Jazz fed me! Sonny’s full.”
Serenity laughed and set him down. “Then Sonny can keep playing. I need to make a call.”
“Okay.”
The little boy obediently walked back to Jasmine and let her play with him. Serenity then called Zachary.
