It was unpalatable and sweet.
How was it sweet? Did he take sugar for salt? Hank immediately went into the kitchen and picked up the box of s eeasoning to see if it was sugar, salt, or monosodium glutamate. Th ey were all placed in the same box, so he must have mistaken sug ar for salt just now.
Before Hank got married, his mother cooked for him at home. Afte r marriage, the Hunt sisters cooked for him. He did not have to co ok all his life. It was no wonder the dish he cooked was unpalatabl because he mistook sugar for salt.
Then, he looked at the pasta in the pot. Since Liberty had measur ed everything for him, the pasta was edible.

Hank turned hot —
tempered when he thought how hard he had worked for the first h alf of the day and came back without food on the table. He went in to the room angrily and became more infuriated when he saw Libe rty sitting on the bed, looking at her phone.
He suddenly stepped forward, slapped away Liberty's phone, grab bed Liberty's hair. He dragged her to the floor and started throwing punches and kicks at Liberty. He did not yell at Liberty for fear of waking up his son who was fast asleep.
Liberty was unprepared for Hank's sudden attack and was dragge d to the ground by her hair. When she came back to her senses, s he retaliated immediately.
Hank was a man, and he caught her by surprise, so Liberty was st ill at a disadvantage even when she fought back.
However, Liberty would not admit defeat even if her face and nose were swollen and bruised because of Hank's beating.

Hank threw another punch at Liberty. Although she was in pain, sh e grabbed his fist tightly and bit down hard on his arm, so much so that Hank cried out in pain. Hank used his other hand to pull Liber ty's hair, but the more he pulled, the harder Liberty's bite was.

He let go of his hand that was pulling Liberty's hair and used that hand to push Liberty away.
The moment he let go of Liberty, Liberty pounced at him.
In the past two years of being a mother, Liberty did not watch her f igure and put on at least thirty to forty pounds after marriage. She pressed her full body weight o n Hank, who felt like he was crushed by a boulder.
This time, Liberty had the upper hand. She took a deep breath an d slapped both sides of Hank's face with all her might.
Liberty fought back just as hard as how Hank hit her earlier. She o nly stopped and got up from Hank's body when he cried and how! ed with blood at the corners of his mouth.
After gasping for a few breaths, Liberty turned around and went to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife.
By then, Hank got up from the ground and called his parents and s ister, telling them that he had taught Liberty a lesson, but Liberty r etaliated. When he saw Liberty charging at him with a knife, Hank was horrified and did not bother to complain anymore. Hank was chased around the room a nd finally took the opportunity to run outside.
