Chapter 146 Serenity‘s sister was her rock. Now that Serenity was all grown up and had the means, it was her turn to protect her sister.

“Seren.”

Liberty held onto her sister and said, “Don‘t go. The injury is only superficial. Plus, I didn‘t let him get away with it. I chased him down a few streets with a knife and scared him out of his wits. I trust he won‘t be violent to me anymore.”

“If he has done it once, he will do it again, Liberty. He won‘t know fear if you don‘t fight back when he lays his hands on you. He’ll only assault you again.”

Liberty pulled her sister back firmly, keeping Serenity from getting even with Hank. “He‘s back at his parents‘ home. You‘ll be facing his entire family if you go there. It won‘t go well for you. Don‘t go. I won‘t tolerate his

behavior anymore. I‘ll fight back if he screams and raises his hand at me.”
