Chapter 113<\/p>\n

\u201cI brought all the gifts that Serenity and Zachary bought for me last time into my room because I was so upset about this whole going Dutch situation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Liberty was seated on a chair, visibly distressed. Meanwhile, Serenity entered the small kitchen, grabbed some fruit from the refrigerator, washed it, and offered it to Liberty. Jasmine, on the other hand, poured a glass of warm water for her.<\/p>\n

After taking a few sips of the water, Liberty felt the urge to share her family troubles. Today, she had come over feeling both aggrieved and frustrated, seeking solace in her sister\u2019s company.<\/p>\n

Liberty knew that if she didn\u2019t find someone to confide in, she risked falling into a deeper depression. Having known Jasmine for many years, she trusted that Jasmine would keep her secrets safe. Liberty continued, \u201cWhen I woke up the next morning, I was relieved to see that Hank had sent his family away. However, before they left, they took all the gifts that Serenity and her husband had given me.\u201d<\/p>\n

She paused for a moment, her anger bubbling beneath the surface. \u201cMy sister-in-law even took some of Sonny\u2019s toys! I was furious when I found out, but Hank just brushed it off, saying that we didn\u2019t need those things, so he gave them all to his sister.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBut does his sister really need those items?\u201d Liberty exclaimed. \u201cShe and her husband both have jobs and a steady income. My parents-in-law are helping them take care of their children, and their combined pensions are more than sufficient to cover their expenses. Yet, they still expect Hank to give them an allowance. Isn\u2019t that just Hank subsidizing his sister\u2019s family?\u201d<\/p>\n

She shook her head in disbelief. \u201cTheir income remains untouched because they\u2019re relying on Hank\u2019s parents\u2019 and Hank\u2019s money. If Hank didn\u2019t have his own family to support and chose to spend his money on his sister, that would be one thing. But he has us to think about, and we still have a mortgage to pay off! How can she have the audacity to use her brother\u2019s money to support her family?!\u201d<\/p>\n

Liberty struggled to comprehend her husband\u2019s actions, feeling increasingly frustrated with Hank.<\/p>\n

Liberty was fully aware that her parents were using her financial contributions to support her sister\u2019s family, yet each month, she dutifully sent money to them without any hesitation. In contrast, Hank was incredibly tight-fisted with her. This situation caused her significant distress.<\/p>\n

She often chastised her in-laws for the charade they maintained before her marriage to Hank. For years, everyone had pretended to be kind, successfully deceiving her. However, once she married Hank, became pregnant, and gave birth to Sonny, their true nature emerged.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s expected for a son to support his parents, but why should he also support his sister\u2019s family? I\u2019m not suggesting he shouldn\u2019t help at all, but he should contribute less and save more for Sonny\u2019s education. He disregarded my advice and even proposed splitting expenses as if he were spending a fortune,\u201d Liberty lamented.<\/p>\n

Reflecting on her choices, Liberty regretted leaving her job early to become a full-time housewife. When a woman lacks her own income and has to ask a man for every dollar, she often finds herself diminishing her self-worth and losing her standing in the home. Liberty intimately understood this feeling.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, she had her sister to lean on for support, alleviating her concerns over finances. Jasmine was taken aback and remarked, \u201cMost parents typically support their sons. Why do Hank\u2019s parents expect their son to subsidize their daughter? It would make sense if their daughter was struggling, but she\u2019s doing just fine. She owns a house, drives a car, and has savings.\u201d<\/p>\n

Serenity, familiar with the dynamics of her brother-in-law\u2019s family, took Sonny from Jasmine\u2019s arms and reassured her sister, \u201cLiberty, it\u2019s time for you to start job hunting. You can leave Sonny with me during the day. This way, if you ever decide to get a divorce, you\u2019ll have the confidence to fight for what\u2019s yours.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sonny\u2019s custody was a pressing concern. \u201cIf you don\u2019t have a source of income, how will you fight for him?\u201d one person pointedly asked. <\/p>\n

Jasmine felt a wave of surprise wash over her. Yet, contemplating Hank\u2019s money-hungry family, she sensed that Liberty would ultimately face divorce sooner rather than later. After all, no one could endure such a husband and in-laws indefinitely.<\/p>\n

Turning her gaze to her son, Liberty replied, \u201cI\u2019ll manage for a couple more months. The New Year is approaching, and then Sonny will start kindergarten. You can just help by picking him up in the afternoons.\u201d <\/p>\n

Liberty knew it was crucial for her to start job hunting soon. Even if she couldn\u2019t secure an executive position like she held before her marriage, her skills would surely land her a respectable job.<\/p>\n
