First Sight Novel Serenity And Zachary
Married at First Sight Gu Lingfei Chapter 1046 – It was after Zachary had lost weight and started having gastric problems again that Serenity felt pity for him and that was how their relationship got better. Thus, his deception and concealment of his identity had come and gone with the wind.
Serenity came out of the bedroom with a jacket on and she had helped grab one for Zachary too. “It’s really windy tonight and the spring chill is still lingering. You should puton a jacket before we go out.” Serenity walked over and thoughtfully helped Zachary put on his jacket.
His face was full of smiles. Grandma May looked away, unwilling to look at her silly grandson. The couple left for their walk, hand in hand.
Meanwhile at the Browns’ rented house, Mrs. Brown came to the door.
She was anticipating greeting her son when she heard the door open. Once she saw that it was really Hank, she asked in concern, “How was it? Was it
open? Where did Liberty bring Sonny? Did she hide with Sonny somewhere else because we kept disturbing her?”
Mrs. Brown was hoping that her son would separate from the Yates woman and remarry Liberty, but she knew deep down that was a slim chance. So,
Sonny had become the one thing she was most afraid of losing. If Liberty went into hiding with Sonny, where would they go to look for them?
Hank first asked quietly, “Mom, is Jessica home?” “She’s gone out to buy some takeout. I asked her to cook, but she said there were too few ingredients in the fridge and decided to pack some food home. She can’t make concessions at all.
Now that the two of you are unemployed and your sources of income are gone, she still doesn’t know how to cut back on spending.”
Mrs. Brown was extremely displeased with her new daughter-in-law.
Hank breathed a sigh of relief and after entering the house, he first went to take a look at the kitchen. Other than vegetables, there were only three eggs left in the fridge. Indeed, the ingredients left in the fridge were too few.
“Mom, you and Dad do nothing at home all day but you don’t even help by doing groceries at the market. Even I can’t stand eating just vegetables and
eggs every day, let alone Jessica.”
As long as it was his parents doing the cooking, the food would only consist of a plate of plain lettuce and three boiled eggs.
Yes, just three boiled eggs-one for him and one for his parents each. Jessica had no share of it.
Jessica could tolerate it once or twice, but after many times of this happening, Jessica could no longer endure it. “We’re just helping you save money.” Mrs. Brown answered as if it was a matter of course. “You guys still have to renovate the house and holding a wedding needs money too.
Why don’t you discuss it with the Yates woman and call off the wedding? You guys have already registered your marriage anyway and the wedding gift has been given to her parents. “We’re all one family now anyway, so why hold a wedding? It’s a waste of money and it’s your second marriage.
There’s no real need to have another wedding.” Hank came out of the kitchen and uncompromisingly said, “I promised Jessica to hold a grand wedding for her. I can’t disappoint her. This is my second marriage, but it is her first. Women mostly only wear the wedding dress once in their whole life.”
He had no way of resolving his mother’s resentment for Jessica, but he would not yield on the things he had decided to stand firm on. He still had some money left. The money he provided Jessica with for the renovations and for holding the reception only made up half of his savings.
After having lost his job as punishment by Zachary, who knew when he would be able to find a job next? How could he dare spend all his money? He mentioned to Jessica that the marital home needed renovations and that they should furnish it simply because they only had that bit of money.
If Jessica wanted to furnish it with classier stuff, she would have to fork out the money herself. “If you had been as thoughtful toward Liberty back then, my grandson wouldn’t have left my side either. Hurry up and tell me-did Liberty hide away with Sonny?”
Hank walked to the sofa to sit down, asking, “Where’s Dad?” “He’s playing chess at the opposite neighbor’s. He’s having a good time-he doesn’t seem to be worried about anything.” “Liberty did not hide away with Sonny. Maybe she closed the shop because they had something urgent came up.
I brought Sonny to the park to play for a while. Sonny’s very happy.” “That’s good then.” Mrs. Brown sighed in relief. Then, she continued, “You need to spend more time with Sonny to nurture your relationship with him. Or else, you’ll feel frustrated when he calls someone else ‘dad’.”
