Chapter 386<\/div>\n
Zachary acted on his plan. He stealthily moved around Serenity\u2019s room, rummaging through her belongings like a thief. After searching all the likely hiding spots for the agreement, he still couldn\u2019t find her copy. Where could it be?<\/div>\n
Standing in front of the dresser, he stared at it, trying to recall any corners he might have overlooked.<\/div>\n
He had searched through all the drawers. Finally, his gaze fell upon a piece of paper on the table featuring a drawing of a golden hairpin. He picked it up.<\/div>\n
Serenity\u2019s drawing was exceptional.<\/div>\n
Why did she draw a golden hairpin?<\/div>\n
Zachary couldn\u2019t decipher Serenity\u2019s reason for sketching a golden hairpin. He turned it over and discovered it was the agreement he had been seeking.<\/div>\n
Serenity had doodled on the back of her copy of the agreement.<\/div>\n
No wonder he hadn\u2019t found it after tearing apart her room.<\/div>\n
Zachary folded Serenity\u2019s copy of the agreement and tucked it into his pants pocket. He then walked over to the bed and sat on the edge, gazing at Serenity\u2019s sleeping face for a moment before reaching out to gently pinch her cheek.<\/div>\n
With a sly smile, he said, \u201cSerenity, you\u2019re stuck being my wife for life!\u201d<\/div>\n
If Grandma May were present, she would have slapped him.<\/div>\n
Zachary, who once claimed he would never pursue his wife, was now sneaking around Serenity\u2019s room.<\/div>\n
After successfully obtaining Serenity\u2019s agreement, he returned to his room, feeling pleased. He retrieved his copy of the agreement, grabbed a lighter, hid in the bathroom, and burned both copies to ashes, which he then flushed down the toilet.<\/div>\n
Unless Serenity could turn back time, she would never find that agreement again.<\/div>\n
It was midnight when Liberty woke up.<\/div>\n
She had yet to shower.<\/div>\n
She wanted to\u2026<\/p>\n

tried to coax her son to sleep before taking a shower, but she didn\u2019t anticipate dozing off. Liberty got up and went to check if the front door was locked. Noticing that it wasn\u2019t double-locked from the inside, she realized that Hank was still out. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s not back at this hour, which means he\u2019s either pretending to be dead or avoiding me,\u201d Liberty muttered to herself. She didn\u2019t believe for a second that Hank was unaware of her actions. In fact, it might even be part of Hank\u2019s plan. <\/p>\n

Hank looked upset when he discovered that Liberty was working at Lewis & Co. He probably thought she wouldn\u2019t be able to find a job after being away from the workforce for more than three years and due to her weight. However, her success in securing a position at Lewis & Co. was likely a blow to his pride.<\/p>\n

Hank was probably the last person who wanted Liberty to go back to work. After causing a scene that afternoon, Hank\u2019s mother did not return to Bright Boulevard; instead, she took Lucas home, likely fearing that Liberty would confront her after work about the incident.<\/p>\n

Liberty attempted to call her mother-in-law, but she didn\u2019t answer. Frustrated, Liberty sent a scolding message, but her mother-in-law chose to ignore it, pretending as if nothing had happened. Hank was no different.<\/p>\n

Returning to her room, Liberty took a shower. Afterward, she picked up her phone and called Hank. This time, someone answered. <\/p>\n

\u201cHank Brown! What time is it that you\u2019re still not back?!\u201d she yelled. <\/p>\n

After a brief silence, the person on the other end replied, \u201cHank is taking a bath. Why are you calling him? You can leave a message, and I\u2019ll pass it on later.\u201d <\/p>\n

It was Jessica Yates. Hank had gone out for business entertainment, and Jessica, his secretary, was the one answering his calls.<\/p>\n

He accompanied her. Since they had consumed some alcohol and Hank may have been planning this for a while, he hugged Jessica tightly and wouldn\u2019t let go. Jessica initially resisted, but eventually, they ended up on the bed together. After spending the night with Hank, Jessica had a change of heart. She decided she wanted to publicly confront Liberty and take Hank from her. Jessica aimed for Hank to divorce Liberty so she could marry him and become a manager\u2019s wife.<\/p>\n
