Chapter 429 – The Disguised Billionaire and His Accidental Wife Novel Free Online

Liberty stopped wiping the table and faintly replied, “My aunt wanted to give a villa with a front and back garden to me and Serena each. She also proposed to give us a lump sum of money to start a business.”

Mrs. Brown beamed. “I told you your aunt won’t give you anything less.”

“We turned down the kind gesture. We don’t want our aunt’s money. We’ll buy a house with our own means, and if we can’t, we can just rent.”

Mrs. Brown was speechless.

Liberty was a fool!

An utter fool!

How could Liberty say no to a free villa?

Yet, Liberty wanted a piece of her son’s two–million–dollar assets.

“Liberty. Sonny.”

Serena and Mrs. Lane pushed the door and entered the shop.

Seeing that Mrs. Brown was here, Serena put away her smile and came at the old lady while rolling up her sleeves. Serena questioned Mrs. Brown, “What are you doing here? I’m warning you. I’ll break your arm if you come here for trouble.”

“I’m here to see Sonny, Serena. I’m not here for trouble.”

Mrs. Brown knew that Serena was adept in the art of self–defense, and she was not afraid to turn violent due to her resentment toward the Browns. Mrs. Brown wasted no time explaining herself.

“You can ask your sister if you don’t believe me. I came to visit Sonny and even brought Sonny a new toy.”

Mrs. Brown remarked as she handed Sonny to Serena. She uttered, “I’ve been here long enough. I should head back.”

“Liberty, I got to go. I’ll visit you and Sonny some other time.”

Mrs. Brown left these words before making the run for it.

Serena carried Sonny out the door as they watched Mrs. Brown get into a taxi. Serena clicked her tongue once it was confirmed that the old lady had left the building.

She shot off. “She’s never been so eager to see Sonny before, so why change now?”

Sonny was holding the toy car that Mrs. Brown stuffed in his hands before leaving. Taking the toy car from Sonny, Serena asked, “Do you like the toy car, Sonny?”

“No.”

Shaking his head, Sonny replied, “I have a lot of toy cars.”

All of them could move whereas the toy car that Grandma gave him could not.

“Why don’t we throw it away?”

After much thought, Sonny answered, “For Lucas.”

He believed Lucas would not go after his toys if he had his own toy car.

“Sonny, Lucas will never fight with you over your toys anymore. If you don’t want to throw the toy car away, we can give it away to other children but not to Lucas.”

“Um… I want to give it to Jenny.”

Serena carried her nephew into the shop and asked her sister, “Who’s Jenny, Liberty?”

“My neighbor’s little girl. She has play dates with Sonny.”

Serena put the toy car from Mrs. Brown on the table. “Sonny said that the toy car is for Jenny.”

Liberty would not make the decisions for her son.

Since Sonny did not like the toy car given by his grandma and did not want to throw it away, Jenny could have it.

It did not matter to Liberty.

Her son had a pile of toys at home anyway. Elisa was generous, showering Sonny with toys every time she dropped by.

Elisa doted on Sonny.

Afraid that everybody might spoil Sonny too much, Liberty became stricter at raising him.

“Liberty, what did the old hag want?”

Serena did not buy it that Mrs. Brown was here to see Sonny.

Liberty smiled sarcastically, “Do you think her story about visiting Sonny was legit? She came to whine about Hank and Jessica’s wedding. The family has to pay for the wedding, family support, and jewelry for the bride. It’s always about money.”

“They deserve it. Jessica better steps it up and spends all of the Browns‘ money.

Liberty was considerate of the family and never demanded anything excessive. The only thing she asked for was for Serena to live together with her.

What did Liberty get in return for her understanding?

Betrayal.

“I hope for a lot of drama in the Brown family. I hope Hank and Jessica’s wedding will be ruined. Liberty, find a better man to marry. The happiness and success of your next marriage will be the best revenge on them yet.

“I can let Zack’s nana and Aunt Audrey know if you’re looking for a second chance in love, Liberty. They’ve been there. They know a good man when they see one. They can check out the man for you.”

Liberty remarked, “Another marriage is not on the table.”

All she could think of now was to make money to buy a car and a house. She would be happy if she could raise her son well to get into a good college and find a good job.

Serena said, “I understand that another marriage isn’t on the table now, but I’m speaking in terms of the future. You’re young, Liberty. Are you planning to be single for the rest of your life?”

“Why not? I think I’m doing fine. I don’t need to wait on my in–laws hand and foot or deal with any issue with a mother–in–law and a sister–in–law. I can do whatever I want and spend on whatever I want. I feel free.”

Thanks to her newfound freedom, it dawned on Liberty why more and more women did not want to take the marriage route.

Serena was speechless.

“Don’t worry about me, Serena. My life can’t be better. Don’t you think I’m happier now that I’m divorced?”

Serena nodded her head.

“Don’t you wish I’ll always be happy?”

“Of course.”

“Don’t bring up the possibility of a second marriage. I just escaped from hell, but Serena, this shouldn’t be a reason for you to be afraid of marriage. Yours is different from mine. Zack seems like a reliable guy.

There was no guarantee that people would not change down the road.

“Has Zack gone to work?”

“Yes.”

Liberty grabbed a wrap to strap her son on her bag while speaking, “Remind Zack to put on layers when the weather is cold. Don’t let him work too hard. Health is most important, and the rest comes second.”

“He’s a grown–up. He should know how to take care of himself. He must have gotten the flu from overworking himself. Stress doesn’t go well with building body immunity. The viral flu comes around this time of the year.”

Serena did not have the guts to say that Zack got a cold from taking cold showers and that the cold showers were because of her.
