Hank twisted the door handle but failed to open the door. Liberty had locked the door.
He knocked.
“Liberty, open up.”
Liberty came to open the door, but she blocked the doorway to keep him from entering the room. She
asked, “What?”
“I have something I want to discuss with you. Let me in.”
This was originally the couple‘s master bedroom, but now it was occupied by Liberty.
Hank was a little displeased, but in order to coax and persuade Liberty to help with the school run for
his sister‘s children, he held back his temper.
“Can‘t it wait till tomorrow? It‘s already late now.”
“It‘s only 11. I usually come back during this time after dinner parties.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLiberty guessed that Hank wanted to talk to her about something having to do with her mother–in–law
and sister in-law. She was curious too, so she stepped to the side and said, “Go back to your room to
sleep when you‘re done.”
Hank cursed in his heart, ‘I just couldn‘t hold it in that night because I drank… Do you really think I
wanted to touch you?‘
However, his mouth said, “Wait, I‘ll go get something.”
He turned around and quickly headed to the room where he now slept. He picked up a small brocade
box containing a pearl necklace he bought specially for Liberty after work earlier. However, it was not
an expensive pearl necklace. It only cost a couple hundred dollars.
He then brought the small brocade box into the master bedroom.
Serenity sat on the loveseat in the room, waiting for him.
Hank entered the room and went to see his son first. Seeing the little boy sleeping soundly, his heart
softened and he leaned down to kiss the boy‘s cheek. He caressed his son‘s face before standing up
straight and turning around to sit next to Liberty
“Honey.”
“Say my name.”
Liberty corrected his term of address indifferently. She did not want to hear him call her “honey”
anymore. It made her sick.
Hank chuckled sheepishly and handed the small brocade box to her. “Liberty, I apologize to you. I was
wrong to hit you last time. No matter what, I shouldn‘t have gotten violent with you. I know I was wrong.
Will you forgive me? “I bought this for you. Open it and see if you like it.”
Liberty looked at him and took the brocade box to see what was inside. She took out the pearl necklace
and looked it over for a while, then put it back into the box and closed it.
“Was this necklace expensive?”
“It was quite expensive. I went to a jewelry store to buy it. Goods in jewelry stores are all of high quality
and rather expensive.”
Liberty laughed.
‘Is he looking down on me for not knowing how to appraise jewelry?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm‘If this pearl necklace was sold at a roadside stall, it would be priced at a few dozen at most. If it‘s sold
in a large supermarket or jewelry store, it would cost several hundred dollars. In my estimate, this
necklace cost less than five hundred dollars.
‘His gift to me was no more than five hundred dollars.
‘However, if he‘s buying it for his lover Jessica, it‘ll be something no less than five thousand.‘
Liberty suddenly felt like she was a joke for thinking about him, saving money for him, and helping him
manage this family!
“Let me put it on for you.”
“No need. Just say what you want to say.”
Liberty stopped Hank‘s move to help her put on the necklace.
Hank smiled sheepishly again and said, “Liberty, my sister came this time to ask about the matter she
mentioned to me before. She asked if we had a thought about it. She said we should act early and get
it done before the year ends.” “What are you talking about?” “Transferring the ownership of our place to
my sister so her children can go to a better school. Also, there‘s the matter of picking up, dropping off,
and cooking for her children. We‘re all busy at work and have no time. Only you are free at home with
Sonny.”
