Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 119

Chapter 119

“Hank, you want to go Dutch with my sister when she doesn‘t have a job. She‘s at home raising your kid, yet you have the nerve to go halves with her. What‘s the point of my sister having a husband then?

“You always say that my sister doesn‘t do anything at home, so she fulfilled your wish and did nothing today. Oh, wait… My sister still did half of the work. At least, she bought the ingredients, measured the pasta, and prepared a pot of water for you. All you need to do is cook it yourself.”

Hank opened his mouth and wanted to say something , but Serenity did not give him a chance to speak. She continued , “Hank, do you think that your house cleans itself every day? Sonny is still young, so when he plays with his toys, he likes to put them all over the floor and he can‘t pick up after himself.

“You don‘t think that those toys put themselves away, do you? Also, who do you think takes care of your meals every day? Isn‘t my sister doing your dirty laundry too?

“Didn‘t my sister make three meals a day for you?

“You only resent my sister for not having a job and income. If it wasn‘t for my sister taking such good care of the household, would you be able to concentrate at work?

“This home is shared by the two of you. My sister is in charge of household matters while you‘re the breadwinner of the family. You can‘t say that my sister doesn‘t do anything for your family just because she doesn‘t have a job. In fact, my sister has it harder than you at work. Why don‘t you and my sister switch roles? You can do laundry, cook, take care of the baby, and clean up the house while my sister goes to work.”

Liberty‘s income before marriage was not much lower than Hank‘s.

Hank opened his mouth several times after being refuted by Serenity, but he was speechless. After a while, he said sheepishly , “Serenity, I only said one sentence, but you gave me such a long lecture as if I‘ve abused your sister. Aren‘t you busy at the store? If your business isn‘t good and you don‘t make much, just close your business and work for someone.

“Isn‘t Zachary working in a big company ? You can ask him to pull some strings so you can join his company. It‘s better to get a few thousand dollars a month than to sustain a business.”

Serenity said coldly, “You don‘t have to worry about my finances. I make enough for my expenses and have some spare change.”

At this moment, Liberty only felt disappointment toward Hank. She was only getting by for the time being for Sonny‘s sake because she was not capable enough to gain custody. Hank would not be able to threaten her ii she got

back on her feet.

Serenity left under Liberty‘s urging.

When Serenity left, Hank had just finished cooking a dish and brought it out from the kitchen. Seeing that Serenity was about to leave, he asked perfunctorily, “Serenity, have you eaten?”

“Yeah.” Serenity casually responded and left.

Hank did not cook all the dishes that Liberty prepared and only made one dish. He forked a piece of his vegetable , put it into his mouth, tasted it, and spat it out immediately.
