Chloe stole a glance at Steven before lowering her head and saying hesitantly, "Didn't you used to buy jewelry
for Jessica all the time?"
She quickly looked up again, watching him closely. This had already been exposed online-there was no way
Steven could hide it from her.
Steven raised an eyebrow. "And?"
Chloe muttered, "Back when you were still married to Annalise, | didn't dare ask you for anything to set a good
example.
"I was afraid that if | bought something, Annalise would make a fuss about it. She'd ask why | was always
dressed in gold and diamonds while she, as your wife, got nothing. She'd question why you never spent money
on her."
The more Chloe spoke, the more aggrieved she felt. If only Steven had married Jessica from the start, she
wouldn't have had to endure all this.
She continued, "Since you've divorced Annalise and are with Jessica now, isn't it tyou bought something for
me, too?"
Steven frowned. "Aren't you a little too old for this?"
Chloe felt infuriated. Without thinking, she snapped, "So just because I'm getting older, I'm not allowed to have

at least a few sets of fine jewelry?"
The more she thought about it, the more she felt wronged. Had all her years of sacrifice been for nothing? Her
son didn't even acknowledge her efforts.
She pressed on. "All of them except me! Do you really wantto look like a joke in front of my friends?"
Steven stared at Chloe, and for the first the felt like he was looking at a stranger. His mind was suddenly
clear. How had he never
realized before? His mother was just as selfish as the rest.
Steven replied calmly, "To be honest, after | got married, | was extremely stingy with Annalise and wouldn't even
spend an extra cent on her. However, | was always generous with you.
"Your monthly allowance is probably more than any of those other wealthy ladies. If you want jewelry, you can
buy it yourself. And yet, you're still askingfor more?"
Chloe muttered, "But the money isn't enough."
Steven scoffed like he had just heard
something ridiculous. "Not enoygh?

Steven suddenly felt exhausted—not physically, but mentally. It was a deep, suffocating kind of fatigue.
He realized no matter how much he gave, it would never be enough for her. Chloe snapped, "How is that the
same?"
Steven didn't want to listen to her anymore. He was just about to tell her to leave when Chloe, sensing his
impatience, blurted out.
