Chapter 25
Jessica took pleasure in her boss’ courtship and preferential treatment, accepting the flowers and gifts as they came. However, she refused to cross the line of making out with her boss.
This was not a matter of protecting her chastity, but rather a means for Hank to yearn for something he so desired.
Jessica’s eyes were not set on becoming a mistress, but rather the rightful woman next to Hank.
Nevertheless, Hank had been in a relationship with his wife for many years since college. Liberty used to be the finance director of the company, but she quit her job to be a full-time housewife by the time Jessica joined the company.
Jessica had never met Liberty, but through the mouths of old colleagues, she got to know that Liberty gave birth to a son a year into the marriage and became a stay-at-home mom since. It was said that Liberty became way out of shape after giving birth.
Hank had whined about his obese wife more than once.
Jessica muttered to herself, “Liberty is such a silly cow. She should’ve watched her figure even after marriage. No man’s going to stand by their overweight wife.”
It was not Jessica’s fault for going after Mr. Brown. Liberty was to blame for not putting in self-care and repulsed her husband. All Liberty did all day was waste away money.
Mi Hrown could spend a little more on Jenica if liberty cut down her spending
Hand scowled at the mention of liberty “Sho’s a pig I feel sick to my stomach every time I look at her. I would’ve divorced her a long time had she not given me a gon”
On the other hand, Serenity had a nice figure. She was younger and more beautiful than Liberty. Despite growing up in a rural area, Serenity carried herself with grace, standing out more than Liberty
Of course, Liberty had that certain charm too in the past. All those extra pounds took that away.
Liberty was in the dark about her husband’s little affair with his secretary. Since Liberty came to know that her husband had a secretary, she thought nothing about a woman’s sweet voice on the other end of the line. Putting her son back in the stroller, Liberty began to push and move forward.
With her head in the clouds, Liberty rammed the stroller into a stationary Maybach
The damage to the luxury saloon was not that bad, but it still left a scratch on the body of the vehicle. Liberty freaked out when she got a good look at the car’s logo.
It so happened the owner of the vehicle arrived at the scene. He came over quickly
“I’m sorry, Mister. I’m so sorry.”
Liberty apologized repeatedly.
The man, in his mid-thirties, was dressed in black and had a rather attractive face. However, a scar across the right side of his face added a menacing vibe to his presence. Sonny was so terrified by the man that he turned around and reached out to his mom, asking for hugs.
The scar-faced man checked his car before turning his attention back to Liberty and the child. Although looking upset, he did not lose his temper and yell at them. The man said sullenly, “Leave me your contact number. I’ll claim from you the repair and repaint charges.”
“I’m sorry, Mister.”
The scar-faced man fell silent for a while before uttering,” Things happen, but an apology doesn’t fix anything. Watch where you’re going next time. You can pay for the damage to my car, but what are you going to do if anything happens to your child?”
“I understand. It’s my fault. I’ll watch out next time.”
Liberty pulled out her phone. “Mister, can you share with me your number? I’ll call you, so you can save my number. I’ll pay for your car’s repair.”
The scar-faced man informed her about his contact number.
Liberty dialed the number and waited until she heard a ring before hanging up.
“What’s your name?”
“My name is Liberty. Liberty Hunt.”
After saving Liberty’s name, the scar-faced man waved her off. “ Alright then. You’re free to leave.”
Liberty apologized once more and pushed her son away from the scene.
She was going to get it from her husband when she returned home tonight.
