Since you\u2019ll already be cooking, preparing meals for two more kids won\u2019t be much of a burden. They\u2019re still children, so their appetites aren\u2019t that large.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cConsider it a favor for me. We\u2019ve been married for so many years. Surely, you want to help, right?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Hank spoke gently, maintaining eye contact with Liberty as he tried to tug at her heartstrings.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cMy sister won\u2019t ask you to work for free. She\u2019ll pay you a thousand dollars each month, and as I mentioned before, I\u2019ll give you an additional fifteen hundred for living expenses. With the thousand from my sister included, you\u2019ll be making twenty-five hundred a month. That\u2019s quite reasonable.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Liberty felt a laugh bubbling up inside her.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>She was so enraged that all she could do was laugh at Hank and his sister\u2019s proposal. One thousand dollars for taking the two children to and from school, preparing three meals a day, and tutoring them? \u201cHank Brown, do you honestly believe a thousand dollars is sufficient?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cYou won\u2019t spend any money on living or food here. My sister is giving you a thousand for nothing, which you can save entirely for yourself. Isn\u2019t that generous? If you think it\u2019s not enough, I can offer you an extra thousand.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Liberty cut him off, saying, \u201cDidn\u2019t I make myself clear last time? I told you I won\u2019t take responsibility for children who aren\u2019t mine. Furthermore, I have some news: I\u2019ve found a job and will be starting tomorrow.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cI\u2019ve asked Serenity to help me with Sonny. I need my sister\u2019s assistance for my own child, so how could I possibly find the time to care for someone else\u2019s children?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Hank\u2019s expression<\/p>\n<p>Her expression darkened upon hearing that. \u201cWhat do you mean you\u2019re going to work? How old is Sonny? He still can\u2019t live without his mother. Do I not provide you with enough food or clothes? Why do you want to work?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m free to work if I choose, and my sister can help take care of Sonny. Yes, you don\u2019t give me enough food and clothes. I\u2019ve had enough of this, Hank! Do you really think I can\u2019t earn enough money to support myself?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou and your family believe that all I can do is eat and that I can\u2019t make money, right? Your mother and sister even scolded me, calling me useless despite all my education. They said I\u2019m worthless unless I can earn money! If it weren\u2019t for Sonny, do you think I\u2019d let you all walk over me and oppress me?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was really foolish, Hank. I was foolish to think you would support me. Look at my hair\u2014it\u2019s still dark and shiny. I don\u2019t have a single gray hair. I\u2019m still young. You haven\u2019t supported me for life yet, but after just three years, you want to split everything equally.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know very well that I used my savings to renovate this house. You know I\u2019m raising the child at home with no income, yet you still want to go Dutch with me. Weren\u2019t you just trying to push me into working? If that\u2019s the case, I\u2019ll fulfill your wish and start working!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI will never believe anything you say for the rest of my life!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hank\u2019s expression darkened as he replied, \u201cYou were the one who forced my hand. You spend money without any restraint\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat are you talking about? What have I bought with your money? All my skincare products were gifts from Serenity, and all my jewelry and bags were purchased by me before I got married. When was the last time I bought new clothes since the wedding? I only bought new clothes for the three of us as a family to make a good impression on Zachary last time. I spent just over a thousand dollars, but your\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>My family continues to berate me about this issue even now. They claim I\u2019m spending money carelessly and damaging our family. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince our marriage, all the money I\u2019ve spent has gone toward this small home, you, and Sonny. I cut back on my own expenses but am generous when it comes to you and your son. Yet now you\u2019re accusing me of spending without restraint and insisting we split costs to control my spending? Hank Brown, are you blind or is your heart devoid of compassion? Doesn\u2019t it bother you to speak this way? Has your conscience been devoured by a dog?\u201d Hank was left speechless by Liberty\u2019s questions. After a lengthy pause, he replied, \u201cLiberty, I\u2019ll stop splitting expenses with you. You should focus on caring for Sonny instead of working. You can return to your job when he starts preschool.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe we should continue splitting costs. There\u2019s no need to change anything. We can keep things as they are, and you don\u2019t need to say anything further. Even if you were to give me ten thousand a month for living expenses, I would still choose to work.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>She wanted to secure a job to achieve financial independence for the sake of gaining custody of her son after the divorce. <\/p>\n<p>She vowed never to listen to his nonsense again.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"text-chapter-toolbar\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#\"><i class=\"icon ion-md-settings\"><\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 331 \u201cPlease just help my sister by managing her children\u2019s daily meals and their school drop-offs and pick-ups.
