Chapter 290


    Chapter 290 “Seren, starting tomorrow, you can just pick Sonny up while I‘m going to jog to your shop. I


    want to lose weight!”


    Liberty was not getting fit to save her marriage. It was to present herself in a better light and find a


    better job in the future.


    “Okay.”


    Serenity had told her sister to keep up with the exercise before the weight became out of control.


    “Seren.”


    Liberty suddenly put her arms around her sister and cried. In fact, she bawled out loud.


    She was suffering inside. !


    All the years she devoted to the rtionship hade to this. Liberty would be lying to say it was not


    eating her up inside.


    She could only put on a brave face so her son did not see her cry.

    Holding her sister tightly, Serenity could not stop the tears in her eyes too.


    A


    It was like fifteen years ago when she first heard her parents‘ passing in an ident. Liberty went to


    fetch her from school to bring her home. Serenity had only walked out of the school gate when her


    sister held her and burst into tears. Serenity had no idea what was going on then.


    Her sister said that their parents were no more.


    Serenity‘s mind went ck, and then the world started spinning. By the time she came to, Serenity was


    staring at her sister‘s tearful face. She slid her hand across her face only to find that she was in tears


    just like her sister.


    “Liberty.”


    Serenity embraced her sister and choked in between sobs. “Let it out, Liberty. You‘ll feel better after


    letting it all out.”


    It was not easy for the sisters to get where they were today. They thought they could finally live a stable


    life, but God had other ns for Liberty.


    “How can he do that to me? We‘ve known each other for twelve years and in love for ten. He used to


    be so good to me. He had been there during our darkest moments, encouraging me and supporting


    me. He told me that he would always have my back.


    “He has already forgotten about his vows just three years into the marriage. Is it my fault because I


    didn‘t take care of myself, forsake myself after giving birth, and have nomon ground to talk about


    after quitting my job?”


    “It‘s not your fault, Liberty. Don‘t put all the me on yourself. It‘s not your fault.”


    Serenity consoled her sister, “It‘s his fault. Now that he has money, he‘s started looking for other


    women. That‘s what many men would do. Men go astray when they have money in their pockets. It‘s


    not your fault, Liberty. If you insist that you‘re to me, the only wrong you‘vemitted is falling in


    love with him and trusting his bullsh*t.”


    “I want to pretend that I don‘t care, but I feel hurt. Seren, he might have be a two–timing b*stard,


    but I can‘t act like nothing ever happened. I‘m not as strong as you think.”


    “I understand, Liberty. You‘ve known him for twelve years and been in a rtionship with him for ten


    years. How can you just let go?”


    People have a strong attachment with a dog after rearing it for ten years, much less lovers and married


    couples.


    Liberty bawled for a while longer and released all the pain within before feeling a little better. Seeing


    that Liberty‘s tears had stopped flowing, Serenity grabbed a tissue to wipe her sister’s face.


    “I’m going to ssh my face before Sonny catches me cryingter.” Liberty went into the loo and


    washed her face beforeing out.


    By the time she took a seat behind the cash register, she had gotten a grip on herself. Liberty said,


    “Seren, if you can learn anything from me, you should take care of yourself and treat yourself. Don‘t


    end up like me, pumping food into my body and bing a fat cow for my child. My husband can‘t


    even stand me.”


    “Liberty, a cheater will still cheat, even if you watch your figure. Otherwise, Hank would embrace


    whatever changes to your body. If his feelings for you were true, he would honor his marital vows


    despite the changes to your figure and looks.”


    At the end of the day, Hank was not that into Liberty.


    Not many women whom men cheated with were better looking and had better figures than their wives.


    L


    It was only a matter of time before Hank had an affair anyway, which only happened so quickly


    because her sister had not been keeping fit.


    “Zachary said that he has a friend who‘s an expert at gathering intel. He‘ll ask the friend to collect proof


    of Hank‘s infidelity.”
