Chapter 531\u00a0\u201cThe fight was simply kids being kids. Additionally, it was an accident. We will take good care of Sonny and protect him from harm once we gain custody.\u201d<\/div>\n
Mrs. Brown said with a heavy heart, \u201cHank, please don\u2019t go through with the divorce. I can\u2019t handle it.\u201d<\/div>\n
It never occurred to her that fights among children could affect custody decisions.<\/div>\n
Despite her age, Mrs. Brown had never witnessed anyone taking their divorce to court. In the separations she had observed, women would pack their belongings and leave, leaving the house, car, and children with the men.<\/div>\n
\u201cSure, it was just a fight between kids, but others might question whether living with us is beneficial for Sonny\u2019s growth and well-being,\u201d Hank patiently explained to his parents. \u201cMom, I don\u2019t love Liberty anymore. It\u2019s not like she would take me back either. You can\u2019t force things to work. It would be difficult for both her and me at this point. Besides, Liberty is willing to settle. The divorce is going to happen. I\u2019ve made up my mind, and I only came back to inform you.\u201d Jessica was right; it was best for Hank to handle the situation with Liberty himself. It was sufficient that he kept his parents informed. As tears flowed, Mrs. Brown slapped her husband. \u201cSay something, old man! No, I need to call Chelsea and have her talk some sense into you.\u201d She was about to call her daughter when her husband stopped her. \u201cInforming Chelsea will only complicate matters,\u201d he said irritably before turning to his son. \u201cIs divorce really the only option? Are those pictures such a significant threat to you?\u201d<\/div>\n
He understood his son well; Hank wouldn\u2019t choose Liberty\u2019s path unless he felt threatened. \u201cDad, my career would be ruined if Liberty shows that stuff to my boss. Ending a loveless marriage doesn\u2019t seem like a bad deal to me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMarriage is essential to safeguard my future,\u201d Mr. Brown said, falling silent afterward.<\/p>\n

Mrs. Brown reacted with frustration. \u201cLiberty has gone too far. What does she gain by ruining your future?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s retaliating because I didn\u2019t go easy on her. I have far more to lose than she does\u2014she has nothing to lose,\u201d he replied.<\/p>\n

Mrs. Brown expressed her anger vehemently. She shifted from criticizing Liberty for her extreme actions to chastising her son for his lack of self-control, and then to blaming Jessica for being the other woman and disrupting her son\u2019s marriage. Now, her son and daughter-in-law were separating and dividing their assets.<\/p>\n

\u201cMom, it\u2019s not Jessica\u2019s fault. I was the one who fell for her first.\u201d Hank couldn\u2019t tolerate his mother speaking poorly of Jessica, as his feelings for her developed before hers for him.<\/p>\n

\u201cMom, Dad, consider this: I wouldn\u2019t be earning this kind of income if I worked elsewhere. Although I\u2019ll feel the sting of giving Liberty a million dollars, I can recover that amount and more as long as I keep my job.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLiberty will file for divorce if I don\u2019t comply with her demands. She\u2019ll get what she wants regardless, but I risk losing my job and my reputation in the industry. Finding another job will be difficult. After careful thought, I agreed to Liberty\u2019s terms.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t worry about Sonny. He\u2019ll still be your grandson after the divorce. Just let Liberty know when you want to see him; she\u2019s okay with visitations.\u201d Mr. and Mrs. Brown remained quiet, recognizing that their son\u2019s career was the priority. They understood how hard he had worked to rise from an entry-level position to his current managerial role. His monthly side income was equivalent to the yearly earnings of many. After a moment of contemplation, Mr. Brown finally said, \u201cThere\u2019s nothing more we can say since\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou have already made your decision.\u201d<\/p>\n
