Chapter 980
Mrs. Brown went to pick Sonny up and planted kisses on Sonny’s cheeks, only giving it a rest when
Sonny frowned.
“Sonny, I couldn’t get you a toy since I came over in a rush. I’ll give you some money, so you can ask
your mom to take you out shopping. You can get whatever you want.”
Mrs. Brown then pulled out a wad of cash and stuffed a few hundred–dollar bills in Sonny’s hand.
“Mrs. Brown.”
Liberty immediately stopped her and took her son from Mrs. Brown. Liberty uttered, ” Don’t give Sonny
money, Mrs. Brown. He’s still young. He’ll get into the habit of asking for money to buy things if you
keep giving him money.”
Mrs. Brown replied, “Then you take the money. It’s for Sonny to buy things.”
She then handed Liberty the cash.
Refusing it, Liberty answered, “Mrs. Brown, Sonny has everything he needs. It’s okay. You can keep
the money for yourself.”
Since Mrs. Brown often dropped by for chatter, Liberty learned that Hank gave a lot less allowance to
his parents. Mrs. Brown mentioned that Jessica was stingy, cutting down on her parents–in–law’s
allowance now that she was holding the purse strings.
Jessica moaned to Hank that her parents–in–law had a state pension and were at the age of receiving
the pension. While the money was not a lot, the husband and wife got around five thousand dollars
from the government.
Her parents–in–law did not have to spend their money since they were living with Hank, so Jessica
refused to give a lot for their allowance. Jessica was concerned that her parents–in–law would give the
money to her sister–in–law instead.
“I have money. Besides, this is for my grandson. Take it.”
With Liberty rejecting the money from Mrs. Brown again, Grandma May jumped in. ” Liberty, this is a
token gesture by Sonny’s grandmother. You should take it. Sonny’s grandmother never brought him
any clothes before. You should take the money and buy some new clothes for Sonny.”
Mrs. Brown made a face.
Since Mrs. Brown knew what Grandma May was made of, she grimaced but said nothing and gave the
money to Liberty.
Jealousy was eating Chelsea up inside. Liberty’s diner was looking great and neat after the renovation.
The thought that Liberty was about to make money made Chelsea even more jealous.
Chelsea had dreams to be a boss of her own too.
Nevertheless, Jessica refused to lend her husband money to start a construction supply business.
Chelsea was reluctant to fork out a few hundred thousand dollars of her own money to set up a shop.
She could earn the interest by keeping the money in the bank. On the other hand, there was a chance
her husband’s business might fail…
“When is the grand opening of your diner, Liberty?” Chelsea asked with a forced smile.
She now believed Liberty was a lot nicer than Jessica.
“Your health is more important than work, Liberty. Look at you. You lost a lot of weight. You had it easy
with our family. You used to be skinny, but Hank provided for you well.”
Everybody glared at her.
Chelsea smiled embarrassedly. “I was just being honest.”
Liberty curtly uttered, “I’m on a diet.”
“Why go on a diet? You looked better and jolly before. Stop losing weight. You’re fine the way you are
now.”
It was not just Chelsea, but every member of the Brown family did not want Liberty to shed the pounds
too because they knew Liberty would become desirable once she regained her appearance from back
then.
The Browns, except Hank himself, hoped Liberty would get back together with Hank.
Hank would hold a senior position in York Corporation if they could rekindle their love and marriage. It
was said that the annual income of a senior executive at York Corporation was several million.
The money was secondary. Most importantly, the Browns would be living large due to their ties with the
wealthiest family in Wiltspoon.
