Liberty had been merciless when she confronted Jessica.<\/div>\n<div>Liberty said coldly, \u201cI don\u2019t want to get my hands dirty by hitting her. Don\u2019t worry, I\u2019ll return her to you in perfect condition.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cLiberty, why can\u2019t I be present when it\u2019s our business?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Hank remained anxious.<\/div>\n<div>Liberty had fought back when he hit her and even chased him down a few blocks with a knife, making Hank realize she was capable of anything when angered.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cThis is a negotiation between a wife and a mistress, so a scumbag like you can f*ck off.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Hank was left speechless.<\/div>\n<div>He glared at Liberty, reluctantly stood up, and walked out.<\/div>\n<div>Once Hank left, Jessica brushed her hair back and asked, \u201cSo, what do you want to discuss with me?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cLiberty, Hank loves me now. If you don\u2019t want to make this worse than it is, I suggest you divorce Hank as soon as possible.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cDon\u2019t worry,\u201d Liberty replied calmly. \u201cI\u2019m not trying to take Hank from you. He doesn\u2019t care about me anymore, so there\u2019s no need for me to fight for him.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Liberty could thrive without Hank; life would go on just fine.<\/div>\n<div>In fact, Liberty might even be better off without him.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cMs. Yates, you\u2019re younger than I was and had just graduated from college when you met Hank. Do you really want to be a stepmother to a two-and-a-half-year-old boy?\u201d<\/div>\n<p>Jessica froze. After a moment, she reluctantly said, \u201cSonny is very cute. I\u2019ll do my best to build a good relationship with him. For Hank\u2019s sake, I\u2019m willing to raise Sonny.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Liberty replied sarcastically, \u201cMs. Yates, you really don\u2019t have to force yourself. Hank isn\u2019t here, so he won\u2019t know what you truly think. Being a stepmother is tough. Even if your intentions are sincere, people will still label you as a wicked stepmother. <\/p>\n<p>If you discipline Sonny, others will accuse you of bullying your stepson. If you don\u2019t show any concern for him, they\u2019ll say you\u2019re neglecting him since he\u2019s not your biological child. No matter what you do, you\u2019ll be the one blamed.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Jessica\u2019s expression was troubled. She didn\u2019t want to be a stepmother to Sonny. <\/p>\n<p>Still young, Jessica knew that Hank would eventually become her husband, and she would definitely want her own children in the future. She wouldn\u2019t have the time or energy to care for her own children, let alone someone else\u2019s. <\/p>\n<p>Liberty was right. Being a stepmother was challenging because, to outsiders, all stepmothers were viewed as cruel. <\/p>\n<p>Regardless of how well they performed, they were always the ones held responsible. <\/p>\n<p>Yet, Hank was determined to fight for Sonny\u2019s custody, and Jessica\u2019s future in-laws were unwilling to give him up. <\/p>\n<p>Since Jessica was not yet married to Hank and had no say in the family, she couldn\u2019t reveal her true feelings at that moment. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cLiberty, Hank is the one wanting to fight for Sonny\u2019s custody, so it\u2019s pointless for you to tell me this. Since I love Hank, I can also accept Sonny.\u201d<\/p>\n<div>Sonny would be cared for by her future in-laws and would not be living with her. <\/div>\n<div>At most, they would only need to provide him with a monthly living allowance of three thousand dollars. <\/div>\n<div>With Jessica\u2019s and Hank\u2019s combined income, three thousand dollars was insignificant; it was far more expensive to purchase a set of skincare products. <\/div>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 514 Hank was concerned that Liberty might become aggressive with Jessica in his absence.
