You\u2019ve instilled in him a lack of respect, friendship, and a spirit of sharing with his cousin! I mentioned buying him some toys, and he said he didn\u2019t want to share them with Lucas.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Liberty\u2019s anger flared after her husband\u2019s tirade. She responded coldly, \u201cWhat do I teach Sonny? Is it his fault? Lucas constantly tries to take Sonny\u2019s toys and even hits him! Do you think Sonny is just some plaything for others to manipulate?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cIt\u2019s clearly Lucas\u2019s fault. As a father, you don\u2019t protect your own son\u2014fine! But blaming Sonny for not being understanding? Should we really let Sonny give up all his toys to Lucas and allow Lucas to hit him again?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cLucas has been spoiled by your sister and your parents. He\u2019s always bullying Sonny. Are you all blind? Can\u2019t you see it? Hank Brown, Sonny is your son. Your own son! Lucas is your nephew. Can\u2019t you even tell which is more important\u2014your son or your nephew?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Hank was left speechless by Liberty\u2019s accusations. He quickly replied, \u201cI can\u2019t discuss this with you right now. I\u2019m busy. Let\u2019s focus on this: where did you take Sonny? It sounds noisy where you are.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cAnd where are you? You\u2019re not at the office, are you? It sounds noisy on your end too. We\u2019re out of formula for Sonny and nearly out of diapers as well. I took him out to buy formula. You didn\u2019t go halves on our son\u2014we didn\u2019t each carry him for five months. So you need to transfer me the money for his formula right now.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Her sister had advised her to fight for what she needed.<\/div>\n<div>Liberty still had enough money to buy formula for her son, but she was also\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Hank had the responsibility of raising the child, so it was entirely reasonable for Liberty to request money for formula. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cDay in and day out, all you do is ask me for money! I\u2019m not a bank, and I certainly don\u2019t have a money-printing machine! Where am I supposed to get that much money? If you can, you should earn your own! All you do is eat and eat. You\u2019re so overweight, you look like a ball, and you\u2019re as unattractive as a monster.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDo you think it\u2019s easy for me? You depend on me for everything at home. I can barely manage to spend my meager earnings, and yet you ask me for money every single day! You\u2019re just adding to my stress.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Liberty pretended not to hear his complaints and insisted, \u201cTransfer the money for the formula to me right now. If I don\u2019t receive it in the next few minutes, I\u2019ll bring Sonny to your office to get the money from you. While I\u2019m there, I\u2019ll ask Mr. Hackett if your salary is sufficient to support a family.\u201d Hank continued to curse into the phone, but eventually relented, saying, \u201cFine. How much do you need for the formula?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ever since he convinced Liberty to resign and leave the company, he hoped she would never return to their former workplace, especially now that she had become overweight and unattractive. Many employees there had worked with Liberty before, and he felt embarrassed by her appearance. <\/p>\n<p>He was also concerned that Liberty might hear rumors while at the office, and he wasn\u2019t ready for a divorce yet. For now, he had to keep his relationship with Jessica a secret from Liberty.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI usually buy seven cans at once, and they\u2019ll give me two for free. It\u2019ll cost two thousand four hundred dollars,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Hank muttered, \u201cWhy is it so expensive? What kind of\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat formula are you feeding Sonny? Is it imported?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s locally produced. The imported options are even more expensive.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sending you $1,200. We\u2019re splitting this cost. You also have a stake in raising our son. Besides, I don\u2019t have anything more to give you. This month\u2019s salary has gone towards the house loan installment and I\u2019ve fully paid off the car loan. I\u2019m planning to get a better car, so I need to save for the down payment.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>As a manager, he noticed that many employees in less prestigious positions were driving better cars than he was, prompting his desire for a more expensive vehicle. <\/p>\n<p>This way, when he took Jessica out on dates, she would be more comfortable. <\/p>\n<p>She mentioned she had been in a Mercedes-Benz SUV and found it much more comfortable than his sedan. <\/p>\n<p>With Hank\u2019s current salary and savings, he could afford a Mercedes-Benz SUV. <\/p>\n<p>He intended to transfer ownership of his current car to Jessica so she wouldn\u2019t have to rely on public transport after work.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"text-chapter-toolbar\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#\"><i
