Chapter 1073


    “Sonny... Sonny is still a child. Besides, his custody was given to Liberty. Hank only needs to pay three


    thousand a month for child support, which will end when Sonny turns eighteen. Hank won’t need to pay


    if Sonny wants to buy a house or car in the future. He has no way of fighting for the family assets.”


    “People’s hearts change. The only way you’ll be sure that he won’tpete with your son for the family


    fortune is if he’s dead.”


    “But I don’t have a son… I don’t even have a daughter.”


    “Can’t you give birth to one?”


    Jessica choked.

    The other partyughed. “It seems that you’re just slightly morally reprehensible, but you still have


    humanity in you. I just told you about my n. I didn’t say anything about killing Sonny.


    “I want to use Sonny to lure Serenity over. She has a good rtionship with her nephew, so I believe


    she’ll be willing toe and see me alone.”


    What she wanted was for Serenity to meet her alone.


    Jessica sighed in relief.


    She only had the ability to steal another woman’s husband, not the ruthlessness to kill someone’s son.


    “Can you guarantee that you won’t touch a hair on Sonny’s head after you take him away?”


    “Sure, under the condition that he doesn’t cry or struggle. After all, he’s just bait. The person I want to


    take revenge on is Serenity.”


    Jessica thought in her heart, ‘How did Serenity offend such a ruthless woman?


    ‘Does this woman also adore Zachary? Maybe she wants to get revenge and kill Serenity because of


    jealousy after finding out that they’re married? Does she want to rece Serenity?’


    “How about it? Are you willing to cooperate with me, Ms. Yates?”


    Jessica asked carefully, “Can I refuse?”


    “You can, but you’ll have to bear the consequences... Ms. Yates, do you know what a woman’s greatest


    fear is?”


    Jessica’s already pale face turned ashen.


    “If you cooperate with me, the only person suffering would be Serenity.


    “By the way, I have people surveilling all the members of the Yates family. If you don’t do what I ask


    after agreeing to work with me, I’m afraid misfortune might befall your family.


    “Don’t think of this as merely an intimidation. I’m a woman of my word.”


    Jessica paused. “Can you give me some time to think about it?”


    “No!


    “Do you agree or not?”


    Jessica saw seven to eight burly men wearing ck masks and sunssesing out from other


    rooms. Her legs shook as she said in an unsteady voice, “I-I’ll do it.”


    “I knew you were a smart woman, Ms. Yates. The Hunt sisters are also your enemies.”


    Jessica did not dare say anything.


    ...


    “Achoo!”


    Serenity sneezed.


    The man beside her immediately asked with concern, “Did you catch a cold?”


    “No, I’m fine. I just sneezed because my nose felt itchy. No need to fuss about it.”


    Zachary reached over to embrace her, letting her lean in his arms. He said softly, “Don’t go back to the


    store after lunch break. Rest for the day.”


    After Liberty treated everyone to a meal, those who had to work went back to work. Liberty took


    Duncan’s car and went back to the rental ce with her son to rest.


    She was running a breakfast diner, so it was fine for her to close in the afternoon.


    Serenity leaned on Zachary’s firm chest. She felt a sense of security as he held her, and all the nerves


    in her body rxed. She yawned and closed her eyes, muttering, “I still have to go back to the


    bookstore in the afternoon to continue discussing the investment.


    “There’s also another banquet tomorrow night. This is the consequence of my asking Aunt Audrey for


    help. I have no choice but to go through with it.”


    Serenity felt that she was getting busier after bing the missus of the York family.
