Gu Lingfei: Married at First Sight Chapter 589
“Old Mr. Hunt, you clearly received sixty thousand from me. I gave it to you in cash. That was my private. funds which I saved for a long time. You took the money and said you would convince Serenity, but your failed. My son still ended up divorcing Liberty.
“Please hurry up and return the money to me, or I’ll call the police.”
When the old man refused to admit he took the money, Olivia was so angry that her face turned scarlet..
Old Mr. Hunt said with a cold face, “If you want to call the police, then be my guest. I’m not afraid. I already said that I didn’t take your money, but so what if I did? Take it as making up for the betrothal gift that you failed to give us when your son married my granddaughter.
“You’re having it easy by paying just tens of thousands for the betrothal gift. You have a daughter yourself too. When your daughter got married, were you willing to give your daughter away to your son–in–law’s family without receiving a single penny in return?”
Olivia said furiously, “Betrothal gift? You never even raised Liberty! What right do you have to receive a betrothal gift? They’re already divorced. I’d be an idiot to give you a betrothal gift. Hurry up and return the money!”

Old Mr. Hunt looked like he had nothing to fear, infuriating Olivia so much so that she wanted to march over and tear into him.
Chelsea hurriedly pulled her mother back. “Don’t touch him, Mom. He’s old. We’ll be in trouble if he ends up on the floor.”
“Oh, I feel so uncomfortable. I can’t breathe. They’re so noisy in here that it’s affecting me. I’m going to die…”
On the hospital bed, Old Mrs. Hunt suddenly looked utterly uncomfortable, holding onto her chest and breathing heavily.
Old Mr. Hunt immediately rang the bedside bell to notify the doctor and nurse to come over.
He said viciously to Olivia and the others, “If something happens to my wife because she’s angry at you, you’ll be responsible for her medical expenses in the future.”
“She’s clearly faking it.”
Chelsea pulled her mother back along with her husband toward the entrance of the ward as she cursed, ” If you don’t pay back the money, we’ll come again.”
“What money? There’s no money? If you want money, go to Liberty and her sister instead.”
Olivia still wanted to scold them, but the doctor and nurse had arrived, so they withdrew. They were afraid that they would really be made responsible for the old woman’s medical expenses if they stayed on.
After leaving the hospital, Olivia continued to curse, “That old fox. He clearly took my money but refused to admit it. I’d rather my money be used to buy medicine and then a coffin for him to lie in.”
“You’re at fault too, Mom. Why did you come to them for help? It’s not like you’re unaware of the relationship between Liberty and her family, but you still gave them money. How are we going to get back the money they’ve pocketed?”
“I was just anxious and wanted to keep Liberty. I wanted to keep that one million.”
Olivia was in tears. What have I done to deserve this? When other people’s sons divorce, the house, car, and savings still belong to them, but when my son did, everything had to be divided in half.”
George smoked a cigarette in annoyance.

They have numbers on their side and Old Mr. and Mrs. Hunt are getting on in years. That old woman can casually say she’s not comfortable and then pin the blame on us.”
People like them were troublesome if provoked.
Olivia wiped a tear and said hatefully, “It’s all Liberty’s fault. She’s so vicious. Let’s go, Chelsea. We’ll settle the score with Liberty. Hank knows which company she works for. We’ll wait for her in front of her company.”
When George heard they were going to look for Liberty, he said, “You guys go ahead. I won’t go. Liberty. and Hank are already divorced. What are you going to do with her even if you find her?”
Liberty threatened Hank to divorce, shared their assets equally, and smashed the renovations. All of this told George that Liberty would not be merciful to the Brown family. Meddling with Liberty would only bring shame to themselves.
“You don’t have to go. Mom and I will be able to set her straight.”
Chelsea felt that if she teamed up with her mother, they would be able to stand up to Liberty.
Thus, George took a cab back to the hotel by himself, Chelsea called her brother and found out that
Liberty was working at Lewis & Co. She drove her mother straight to the office building, and stood guard by the entrance.
