Chapter 80 The family gathered together and enjoyed the watermelon in front of the TV. Soon, the Browns retired to their roomsfor the night.
The Browns were sticking around for a few days.
Now that Serenity had moved out, there was an extra room for the whole Brown family to stay.
However, without Serenity helping around the house while Liberty took care of the child, groceries, and cooking, the house did not seem as clean as before.
Before retreating to bed, Chelsea discreetly pulled Hank to a corner and said, “Serenity and her husband brought a lot of stuff tonight.
Liberty was so angry she carried the bags into her room just now.
I took a look inside the bags.
There was some good stuff.
“I saw cigarettes and alcohol.
Give some to your brother in-law.
Liberty doesn’t smoke or drink.
You also don’t need the stuff anyway.
Your brother – in-law can’t bring himself to get the good cigarette brands.
Ah, Dad hasn’t tried that alcohol.
Give the spirit to Dad.”
Hank burst into laughter.
Hank burst into laughter.
“Just take what you like, Chelsea.
Give your baby a bath and get to bed.
I’m not working late tomorrow so I will take all of you on a drive.”
“Alright.”
Beaming, Chelsea happily went to her room.
Sonny was asleep by the time Hank entered his bedroom.
As she was getting out of the shower, Liberty gave Hank the cold shoulder and saton her side of the bed to turn in for the night.
“There’s something I need to discuss with you, Liberty.” Drawing comparisons to Jessica’s waistline, Hank stared at Liberty’s fleshy figure in disgust.
Hank drew close and took a seat by the bed.
He caressed his son’s face with tender eyes.
Regardless of everything, Hank loved his son.
“What do you want?”
Liberty’s tone was flat.
“My sister wants to send her eldest two to a school here.
They’ll be living at our place.
You’ll help with the cooking, pickups, and drop-offs.
You have to cook every day anyway, so what are a few extra mouths to feed? “I’ll add a thousand dollars to your monthly allowance.
The kids won’t take up much of the expenses, so a thousand bucks is more than enough.
“We’re in the catchment area for Wiltspoon Wood High.
We can either take guardianship of Chelsea’s kids or transfer the title deed to my sister’s name.
Once the kids have graduated, the house comes back to my name.
“It’s my sister we’re talking about.
We can trust her.
There’s no concern about her refusing to give back the house.”
Liberty had kept her resentment bottled up inside the whole night.
Liberty had kept her resentment bottled up inside the whole night.
She was ready to put the matter behind her and saved herself from another fight with herhusband, but Hank’s words brought out the worst in her.
