ReadGoodChapter 578 Steven felt a piercing pain in his chest. He said, "In the past, I was an obedient son. When you toldthat Annalise was bad and Jessica was good, I believed in you. I distanced myself from Annalise and got closer to Jessica, but look at how things have become." After barely propping himself up to a sitting position, Steven gazed at Chloe.
He snarled, "In the end, Annalise leftand found a better man. Meanwhile, all I can do is sit at hin misery and think about her!" Chloe hadn't expected Steven to suddenly lash out.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe said awkwardly, "Well, I didn't know you liked Annalise. It seemed to us that you were reluctantly living with Annalise and that you only had eyes for Jessica. If Annalise wasn't your wife, you would've reunited with Jessica. I thought you loved Jessica..." Hearing that, Steven laughed at himself mockingly. That meant he was fully responsible for how things had become, and there was no one else to blame. Steven looked away.
However, Chloe continued nonchalantly, "You're unhappy now because Annalise found a better man and is living a better life after divorce. If she didn't meet Zane Huxham and could only work as a waitress or kitchen assistant, would you still be so regretful?" Steven tried to imagine what Chloe described. He imagined himself driving an expensive car to dinner, only to encounter Annalise who was working at the restaurant as a waitress. He also imagined Annalise painstakingly washing stacks of dishes.
At that thought, Steven felt a sharp pain in his chest again. He knew full well that a woman like Annalise would never fall into the kind of misery as Chloe described.
Annalise was a university graduate; she was emotionally stable and had good character. Even when she was a housewife, she took good care of the family. If Annalise had any intentions to do so, she could work as a housekeeper, and she would still be highly sought-after.
Even if Annalise was not interested in working as a housekeeper and chose to work in other industries, she wou do her best to excel.. Regardless of whether she met Zane, she would live a good life.
Steven didn't dare to dwell longer on it. In every version of Steven's imagination, he realized that Annalise could thrive without a man. Ultimately, she would give up on him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChloe got up and said, "Just you wait. I'll go to Zane Huxham's office and tell him to break up with Annalise. That would do the job, right?" Steven found it funny how confident Chloe was. It sounded as if Zane would obey her; Zane was not related to Chloe, so there was no reason for him to do as she said. Not wanting to waste more twith Chloe, Steven said, "Go ahead." Chloe patted Steven on the shoulder and said, "Look. Annalise married you after graduating from university. After getting a divorce, she's now with Zane Huxham. What does that mean? That means she cannot live without a man." enk As Chloe continued, she began to walk out. She said, "Annalise claims to be independent and made a living for herself, but all of that is done on the condition that there is a man to protect her. Without a man, she is nothing."

Steven stared at the ceiling blankly. He felt something was wrong with him. No matter what he looked at, he would see Annalise's face.
