Chapter 155
“Of course, I have no problem if you want to be a slave to your husband, Chelsea. However, my sister i
s not one. Men and women are both equals in this day and age. There should be equality between spo
uses. No one is better than the other.
“It‘s your choice to be under your husband‘s thumb, but don‘t force your values on my sister.
“Hank struck my sister first and bashed her real bad. My sister only
retaliated to stay alive. She was acting out of self–
defense. There‘s no way my sister will apologize with gifts! You should be talking sense into Hank to ap
ologize to my sister.”
Serenity reflected indifference and assertiveness on her face without fear of offending Liberty‘s in–
laws. She added. “You can send my sister back here if you think my sister spends money like water rat
her than earning it. Don‘t ever use force on her. You might care about your son and
brother, but I cherish my sister too.
“And one more thing My sister spent over a thousand bucks oli dothes the other day because I was brin

“It has been a while she my sister has anything new to
wear after marrying into your family. Yet, you refuse to let the matter go. Sure, your family
has been kind, but if that‘s considered kind, the rest of us must be Mother Theresa then.”
Serenity‘s words got under the mother and daughter‘s skin. Of course, they were livid beyond measure.
They stood firm that they were right while Liberty was in the wrong
“God forbid my sister didn‘t cook for one day. You
were all over her, saying that it was like Hank didn‘t have a wife. Well, if you think about it on the flip sid
e, it‘s like my sister doesn‘t have a husband either. What‘s the point of marriage when the husband can‘
t support his wife? He should marry his own family instead.
“Besides, it‘s not like my sister doesn‘t do anything. Mrs. Brown, you work your *ss off at your daughter‘
s place. Do you think managing a home is easy?”
Mrs. Brown opened her mouth. Yet, no words escaped her lips.
She and her husband handled the chores, looked after the young ones, and
tutored the kids with their homework at their daughter‘s place. Truth be told, it was no walk in the park. I
t was rather annoying, especially when the kids were so little. The children did not know any better and
were naughty to mess up the house,
Mrs. Brown could be tidying up at one corner while the
kids scattered toys in another.
The young children often cried and rolled on the ground fussing at every little thing that did not go their
way. Caring for toddlers was the most challenging job ever. To be frank, Mrs. Brown would rather get a
cleaning job than look after the children and run a house if she did not feel for her daughter. “Mrs. Brow
n, don‘t play dumb. You can‘t expect my sister to give her everything unconditionally when you know it‘s
tough work. What makes you think my sister has it easy? Marriage requires effort from both the husba
nd and the wife. It‘s all about
give and take. It doesn‘t make sense for my sister to do all the giving while Hank just takes it.
“As I said, you can send my sister back to me
if you don‘t feel she‘s good enough for you. I can support her, but you can‘t raise your hand at my sister
. I‘m willing to move past the matter since my sister fought back this time, but I won‘t be so nice next ti
me. That reminds me. You should know that I practice self–
defense, so I know to hit where it hurts the most. You can forget what I just said if you think Hank can h
andle the consequences.”
Serenity would not stop until Hank ended up in the hospital if she was fighting Hank!
Hank should think twice before striking her sister again!
“Do you think anyone would want your sister after she
leaves Hank? She‘s lazy, fat, and a glutton. Hank can‘t stand the sight of her. Ha! A divorce? Not even a
“Chelsea!” Mrs. Brown cried before giving her daughter a slap on the face.
With Serenity giving her a death stare, Chelsea cowered
and stopped yakking. However, nothing could stop Chelsea from rambling in her mind.
“Serenity, Chelsea was simply saying stuff without thinking. Of course, we don‘t want to go down the div
