Chapter 860
“Yeah.”
Sonny wrapped his arms around Serenity’s neck and returned her kisses with several on her cheek, filling Serenity’s heart with joy and love for the little cutie.
“Why are you back so late, Liberty? I finished dinner a while ago,” Serenity asked her sister while holding her nephew close.
“The interior designer finished late, so I had to leave a bit later too. I thought about cooking for you, but I see you already did.”
Serenity replied, “I just went through some emotional pain. I’m not sick, so you don’t need to cook for me.”
Liberty walked over to examine the painting Serenity had created, which was a hairpin.
“Your drawing isn’t great when you’re not in a good mood. Maybe take a break from it for now.”
Liberty helped her sister put the drawing board away. “Did you go out for a walk today?”
“I didn’t feel like moving, so I slept all day.”
“Make sure to take a walk tomorrow. You’ll only feel worse if you stay cooped up at home all day.”
Serenity hummed in agreement. “I’ll get back to work tomorrow. I need to rush the orders from the online store I received before the holidays.”
The students wouldn’t start school until next Monday.
Today was Friday, so she could use the weekend to catch up on her orders.
Having something to focus on would help her avoid constantly thinking about Zachary’s lies.
If that weren’t on her mind, she wouldn’t feel angry, which would help improve her mood.
“Sounds good.”
Liberty didn’t discourage her sister from returning to the store, but she did remind her, “I ran into Hank downstairs. He came by just to tell me that our granddad went downtown again with his class of grandsons.”
Serenity frowned at that. “Why did they come here? Do
They believe we have plenty of money for them now that they know Zachary is the heir of the York family and that I’m his wife,” Liberty said quietly. “Do you really think they won’t assume that?” Those people had faces thicker than walls; their remarkable shamelessness gave them the audacity to think and do anything. “So what if they do? They can go directly to Zachary.” Serenity’s conflict with her family was intense. “They might actually consider that.” Serenity fell silent. Would they genuinely approach Zachary for money? She had no idea. “They’re struggling right now. If they don’t try to get money from Zachary after learning his identity, the sun might rise in the west.” Serenity’s tone was icy. “Even if they lose their jobs and their businesses fail, they have more than enough savings. It’s unlikely their quality of life will be affected for now, but they constantly think about asking us for money. They are utterly shameless!” They couldn’t bring themselves to spend their own money but had no qualms about wanting to use someone else’s. Who owed them anything? “They even wanted a share of the money I received from the divorce. They called me to ask for money, but I refused.” After Liberty helped her sister tidy up the drawing board, she went into the kitchen to bring out the food her sister had prepared. Meanwhile, Serenity took her nephew to wash his hands. Soon, the three of them were seated around the small table for dinner. Sonny could feed himself now, and although he dropped food all over the table, Liberty still let him eat independently. He would be starting preschool in September. Ding dong… Ding dong… The doorbell rang. “I’ll get it,” Serenity said as she got up.
She set down her spoon. “I suppose they may have made their way here.”
