Chapter 717<\/div>\n
\u201cJessica wants the reception to be at Wiltspoon Hotel. How much is that going to cost? We\u2019re covering the reception expenses. Instead of marrying for love, Hank is marrying into debt.\u201d<\/div>\n
Mrs. Brown complained, \u201cIt\u2019s not like she can lay a golden egg.\u201d<\/div>\n
Liberty picked up a cloth and wiped the table while listening to Mrs. Brown\u2019s grievances without offering her opinion.<\/div>\n
Her former mother-in-law had come to vent about Jessica, who was being demanding and extravagant.<\/div>\n
If Jessica were foolish like Liberty\u2014paying for renovations and refusing to let the Browns contribute to the wedding and family support\u2014Mrs. Brown would likely brag about Hank marrying someone younger and more attractive right after the divorce.<\/div>\n
Mrs. Brown would probably mock Liberty for being overweight and unattractive, insisting that no one would want her once she left Hank.<\/div>\n
\u201cLiberty, have you been cutting back and skipping meals lately? You seem to have lost quite a bit of weight.\u201d<\/div>\n
\u201cMrs. Brown, I\u2019m no longer married to your son. You\u2019re not my mother-in-law anymore, so you don\u2019t need to worry about me,\u201d Liberty replied, uninterested in continuing the conversation.<\/div>\n
Mrs. Brown laughed awkwardly. \u201cI\u2019m just used to it; it\u2019ll take some time to break the habit. Don\u2019t be too frugal. You can save the money from Hank in the bank to earn interest, but you have lost a lot of weight. Sonny is getting heavier, making it harder to carry him.\u201d<\/div>\n
\u201cLiberty, is your aunt financially supporting you in setting up the shop? Your aunt is wealthy and could offer you better assistance than we could.\u201d<\/div>\n
Mrs. Brown had come today not only because she missed her grandson but also to gauge how much support Mrs. Stone was providing to Liberty and her sister. Would the family benefit if her son and Liberty rekindled their relationship?<\/p>\n

What about Hank\u2019s marriage to Liberty? Hank had been complaining about work-related stress lately. He felt someone was out to undermine him, as his boss seemed to be nitpicking every mistake. This constant scrutiny left Hank worried about losing his job. He had plans to submit his resignation after marrying Jessica the following year and intended to start looking for a new job after their honeymoon. <\/p>\n

Stone Group was a close second to York Corporation, and it would be ideal for her son to secure a position there. \u201cI have the skills and the startup capital. Why would I need my aunt to finance me?\u201d This statement effectively silenced Mrs. Brown. <\/p>\n

After a moment, Mrs. Brown regained her composure. \u201cThat\u2019s quite foolish, Liberty. Your aunt has been searching for your mom for decades. You\u2019re her only surviving relative now that your mom is gone. She\u2019s wealthy and would be delighted to help you financially now that you\u2019re part of the family. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I can\u2019t believe you didn\u2019t reach out to your aunt for assistance.\u201d Liberty paused in her task of wiping the table and softly responded, \u201cMy aunt offered to give Seren and me a villa with front and back gardens. She also suggested giving us a lump sum to start a business.\u201d <\/p>\n

Mrs. Brown\u2019s face lit up. \u201cI told you your aunt wouldn\u2019t offer anything less.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cWe declined her generous offer. We don\u2019t want our aunt\u2019s money. We\u2019ll buy a house on our own, and if that isn\u2019t feasible, we can always rent.\u201d <\/p>\n

Mrs. Brown was left speechless. Liberty was being utterly foolish! How could she turn down a free villa? Yet, she still desired a share of her son\u2019s two-million-dollar assets. <\/p>\n

\u201cLiberty. Sonny.\u201d <\/p>\n

Just then, Serenity and Mrs. Lane entered the shop, and upon seeing Mrs. Brown, Serenity quickly lost her smile and approached the elderly woman.<\/p>\n

As she rolled up her sleeves, Serenity confronted Mrs. Brown, saying, \u201cWhat are you doing here? I warn you, I\u2019ll break your arm if you\u2019re looking for trouble.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m here to see Sonny, Serenity. I\u2019m not looking for trouble,\u201d Mrs. Brown replied. <\/p>\n

Aware of Serenity\u2019s skill in self-defense and her tendency to resort to violence out of resentment towards the Browns, Mrs. Brown quickly clarified her intentions. <\/p>\n

\u201cIf you don\u2019t believe me, you can ask your sister. I came to visit Sonny and even brought him a new toy,\u201d she explained as she handed Sonny over to Serenity. \u201cI\u2019ve been here long enough; I should head back now.\u201d<\/p>\n
