Married at First Sight

“I’ll let you know when I feel uncomfortable, Sonny. I won’t be hesitant to tell you.”
After explaining, Duncan told Chelsea, “I’m fine, Chelsea. Sonny’s a child, but he’s very sensible. He would never sit on my lap
when my legs were in pain. I’ve long been discharged from the hospital and have done rehabilitation for some time. I’m still able
to hold Sonny.
“Don’t scare him, Chelsea.”
The Brown family did that to prevent Sonny from getting close to Duncan.
However, he had spent lots of time with Sonny. It was not something that the Brown family could stop from happening as they
wished.
Chelsea said, “Don’t dote on Sonny so much, Mr. Lewis. You’ll spoil him rotten.”
“Don’t worry. He won’t be spoiled rotten as his mom is strict with him. He knows what he can and can’t do. I like Sonny. He’s
sensible and clever. Even with so many people adoring him, he never became unreasonable.”
The Brown family did not feel good when they heard Duncan praising Sonny. However, they could not say a thing because they
knew Sonny was indeed a good child.
Hank, who was lying on the bed, glanced at Liberty. Then, he shifted his gaze away and smiled at Duncan. He said, “This is all
thanks to Liberty. She taught Sonny well.”
“It’s also due to our family’s good genes. Sonny inherited those good genes from the Brown family.”
Chelsea brazenly said her family’s genes were superior.
“How’s your business lately, Liberty?”
Hank changed the topic.
“The breakfast diner’s business is doing the same as before. I can’t get rich from it, but it’s better than working under someone
else. The new store hasn’t opened yet. It’ll be ready for opening soon.”
Liberty did not hide anything from them. They all lived in Wiltspoon and would surely cross paths regularly. Even if she did not tell
them, they would have ways to find out.

“Will you be hiring after your new store opens? Can you hire me? I’m unemployed now, and there’s not much income from the
store Lucas’s dad runs. Business is difficult. I’m thinking of going to work if I can find a job.
“I used to be a manager in my workplace. If you assign me as the supervisor, I can definitely do well. You can decide my salary. I
don’t dare to ask for a high salary since I’m getting older. I’m content as long as I get eight thousand to ten thousand dollars a
month with food and accommodation provided.”
Liberty’s expression remained unchanged. She said, “The new store hasn’t opened yet. I’m unsure whether I need employees,
but I think I won’t be able to hire you, Chelsea. Besides, I won’t be offering high salaries.”
Even if Chelsea had been grateful to Liberty and Serenity, Liberty would not hire her ex-sister-in-law to work at her restaurant.
She could not trust someone like Chelsea.
Besides, Chelsea was the most enthusiastic person in the Brown family about getting Hank to pursue Liberty again. Liberty knew
what she was planning.
She no longer wanted the Brown family to take advantage of her money again. She would not allow them to access her sister’s
money through her too.
Liberty was not strong enough to be her sister’s backing yet. Therefore, she was trying her best not to be her burden. She would
try to think of a way to solve problems herself. If Serenity came to know about the situation, only then would Liberty discuss the
matter with her.
“How much can you give? I can accept seven or eight thousand dollars too.”
Liberty smiled and said, “It’s a small store. I don’t even know how the business will turn out. The salary will be almost the same
as those offered by other restaurants in Wiltspoon. It might be the minimum wage in Wiltspoon. I’ll increase it based on how well
the business is doing and the employee’s performance.
“I don’t need a supervisor either. I’ll be doing most of the things myself at the start. It saves cost.
“I don’t think you’ll be able to work as a waitress either, Chelsea. After all, you’re a boss’s wife now.”
Upon hearing about the low salary and that she had to work as a waitress, Chelsea lost interest in the job.

After giving it some thought, she said, “You can let me manage the breakfast diner for you, Liberty. We used to be family anyway.
Won’t you be more at ease letting me manage the diner than someone else?”
