Jessica made a long face.
A while later, she turned on her heel and walked out.
“Mrs. Brown.”
With Serenity calling after Jessica, Jessica turned around and looked at her, waiting to get an answer about Liberty’s whereabouts.
Serenity played nice and reminded her, “The bruises on your face are obvious. You might want to get something to cle them away. I heard that your wedding with Mr. Brown is coming up. The black and blue would not go well with the theme of your wedding.”
Jessica’s wrinkles deepened with a grimace.
Without a word, she cocked her head back and strutted out of the shop with her chest out.
It was as if by doing so, she could prove her life could not be any better.
A delivery person arrived.
Jasmine ordered milkshakes to the shop.
She took the milkshakes and gave a cup to her best friend. Jasmine gloated, “The Browns must have abused her. I thought she was all that, and her mother–in–law and sister–in–law had nothing on her.”
Sipping on the milkshake, Serenity replied, “She got a whole family up against her. That’s hard to beat.”
“Either domestic violence happens, or it does not. Now that she lost her first physical fight with the Browns, things will only get worse for her unless she and Hank divorce.”
Serenity had no sympathy for Jessica.
She wished Jessica the worst luck in the world.
Jessica was abused before the wedding even happened.
Things would only go downhill for her.
“Liberty fought back when she was attacked at home. She ran after Hank with a knife and scared the Brown family. Although they were mean as ever, none of them, ever dared lay hands on Liberty again.”
The Brown family preyed on the weak.
“I thought the Brown family had changed for the better when they came to say thank you.” Jasmine enjoyed a mouthful of milkshake and said, “I guess a leopard can’t change its spots.
“Who cares what they do? Jessica wanted the man, so now she can live with the consequences. She deserves it!”
Serenity commented with a smile, “I should thank her. It wouldn’t be so easy for my sister to get
out of hell and gain Sonny’s custody if it wasn’t for her.”
Jasmine uttered, “I bet Hank and Jessica will be jealous when your sister finds a better man.”
Serenity merely grinned without continuing the conversation. Marriage was not in the cards for Liberty right now.
Meanwhile, Callum put his weight on his hands against the cash register at Spring Blossoms and stared into Camryn’s eyes. He asked, “How was it? The business opportunity must have brought. you a lot of profit.”
Taking the Marshall family’s instructions, the Wiltspoon Hotel ordered a lot of flowers from Spring Blossoms to set up the venue. novelbin
Instead of talking about the profit, Camryn said, “I’ll buy you dinner tonight.
“But not at Wiltspoon Hotel. It’s expensive there.”
The last time she treated him to dinner, it cost several hundred dollars. For a small–time business. owner, several hundred dollars on a dinner was a lot.
The money could have covered her employees‘ and her expenses for three days.
Callum did not order anything fancy in consideration that she did not carry much cash with her back then. Hence, the bill only came up to a few hundred dollars.
Camryn would be spending more if he ordered the more expensive dishes.
