    After walking Serenity to the door and seeing her drive away, Mrs. Stone turned on her heel and


    returned to the house.


    No sooner had Serenity returned to the shop than Jessica barged in.


    Serenity was surprised by Jessica showing up.


    “Where’s your sister, Serenity?” Jessica shot the question the moment she walked into the shop..

    “What business do you have with my sister, Mrs. Brown?” Serenity put away her car keys and faintly


    asked Jessica.


    Jasmine kept her eyes peeled, ready with a broom for when Jessica got out of line.


    Jessica was ck and blue in the face. With that ck eye, she appeared rather gaunt.


    She was only twenty–five years old, a year younger than Serenity. Yet, Jessica looked a lot older. than


    Serenity right now.


    It was probably because Hank did want to foot the bills for her expensive skincare products now that he


    got the girl. Liberty had a better skincare routine than Jessica currently.


    Serenity had no sympathy for Jessica despite how she looked now. In fact, Serenity believed Jessica


    deserved it.


    “I need to have a talk with her.”


    Jessica was ck and blue from getting beaten up by her sister–inw and parents–inw. Although


    her face was no longer swelling, the bruises were still apparent. She did not want to go. back to her


    parents as her parents and brothers would only jump down her throat.


    She secretly eloped with Hank, causing her parents to miss out on getting a substantial financial gift.


    Her parents mentioned that Jessica could forget crying in their arms when the Browns mistreated. her


    since she hastily jumped into marriage with Hank.


    However, she was down in the dumps and needed to spill her guts to someone.


    Jessica looked at the contact list on her phone and found no one to talk to. Her real friends left her


    when she came between Hank and Liberty’s marriage.


    Besides, Jessica did not want anybody else she knew to find out that she had a hard time with her in–


    laws.


    She immediately thought about Liberty.


    It was ironic that the mistress wanted to confide in the first wife.


    Yet, Liberty was the only one who had firsthand experience of the Browns‘ craziness.


    “My sister has nothing to talk about with you. You can leave if it’s about the Browns. My sister is not


    rted to the Browns. Don’t worry about my sister going back to him. It’s your husband’s problem if he


    finds another woman. My sister has nothing to do with it.


    “My sister has known Hank for over a decade, and he’s her first love. They were so in love and were


    happy after the wedding. In the end, he ended the marriage because of you. It’s clear this man can’t be


    trusted. Just look at what happened to my sister. One day, the same will happen to you.”


    Jessica peevishly snapped back, “Hank and I are getting along fine, I’m not here to talk about that. I’m


    just… Where did Liberty go? I went to her diner, but it was closed. She’s not at her rented ce. I


    called her, but she didn’t pick up. She won’t even reply to my texts.”


    “That means my sister doesn’t want to give you the time of the day. Whatever you want to say, you can


    go back and talk to your husband. You and your inws should note looking for my sister over


    every little thing. Why does my sister have to lend an ear?”


    Mrs. Brown would often moan to Liberty whenever she had a fight with Jessica.


    Now Jessica was doing the same thing. Serenity had no words about the family.


    Her sister was not an emotional dumpster to listen to the Browns‘ints. Serenity was tempted to


    tell her sister to charge these people the next time they came to pour their feelings again.
