Chapter 67 Nothing good ever cout of Zachary’s mouth, to be honest.

Perhaps Zachary should show his apology through his actions.

“What’s the matter? Were you wrong about your wife? What did you do to warrant an apology gift?”

Josh was in the mood for gossip. “None of your business. Get back to work. You’re going to be speaking with Mr. Williams about the partnership tonight. I’ll be busy tonight.”

Zachary had dinner plans with his wife at his sister-in law’s.

“Why are you busy? Where are you going?”

“You should know that a married man shouldn’t spend all his ton work, or else it’ll give his wife an excuse to cheat on him.”

Josh, “…”

He was speechless.

At least Josh found out that the work was pushed to him so his boss could spend stwith his wife.

Zachary sure thought he was all that just because he was married.

Josh could get married too. He could then skip social engagements and overtto go hto his wife. Alas, he did not have a girlfriend. There was no one in the picture even if Josh wanted to tie the knot any tsoon.

After taking the blow, Josh dejectedly retreated.

Under the sblue sky, different individuals were engaging in different activities at various places.

After telling Serenity to cfor dinner tonight, Liberty fed Sonny and pushed him in a stroller to get groceries.

She took one step out the door when her husband’s call cin.

“What’s the matter, Honey?”

“Have you gotten the groceries?” Hank asked through the phone.

“Not yet. I’m on my way out. Do you fancy anything for tonight?”

“Get extra groceries today. My parents and sister are coming. My sister enjoys seafood, so get more of that. Oh, my mom’s favorite is beef. Get that too.”

Liberty replied, “Seafood is expensive. Your sister always asks for salmon and oysters whenever she comes. She

could finish the whole plate. The price of beef is high now. It costs sixty bucks a pound. I can’t even spend that kind of money for Sonny.”

She did not relish in hosting her in-laws. They would demand the best food and often criticize her in Hank’s presence. Liberty and Hank would get into a big fight and there would be silent treatments for days after their visit.

Liberty’s sister-in-law was the worst. She loved to meddle and instigate trouble between the couple. “Just do as you’re told. What’s with the insolence ? You spent more than a thousand bucks on clothes last time. You’ve got to payback for that, so don’t use the household account to pay for the groceries today.”

Liberty’s heart sank. She was furious too. She thought her husband only demanded to go halves to kick Serenity out. It never occurred to Liberty that Hank meant what he said.

“Hank, I might not be working, but I’m taking care of your son at hand managing the household so you can be committed to your career. You’re only the man you are today because of me. “You’re determined to go Dutch withwhen I can’t go to work. Are you trying to driveup the wall or push me to work? Fine. Get your parents to take care of their

grandchild, so I can start looking for a job tomorrow.”

“You gave birth to the child. Why should my parents look

after the kid? I mean, the child is our responsibility as parents. We should take care of our son. My parents had it hard raisingand my sister. It’s tfor them to relax and enjoy life. Let’s not take that away from them.

“It’s not like you don’t have the money. You could even pay for the damages to an expensive car. Don’t lie tothat you have nothing. You could ask sfrom Serenity. You can return to work and repay Serenity’s money when Sonny starts school.”

Hank insisted on dividing the expenses.

He believed he had it hard as Liberty sat and did nothing at home. She was only caring for a child while Hank had to pay for the living expenses and loans. Liberty had no use for money.
