The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 630

I never intended to ask for the money, but I couldn't deal with Chloe's frequent disturbances and claims that I spent a lot of Steven's money.

A wicked thought crossed my mind. I wondered what Chloe would do if she found out that Steven had been using my money instead.

Chloe said proudly, "Sure. Let's see how much Steven spent on you! Now that you've found another rich man, if you had even the slightest bit of dignity, you should return all the money Steven's ever spent on you."

"Sure. But if I had been spending on Steven, you should tell him to pay me back, too," I replied.

In response, Chloe nodded and said, "Sure."

But as Chloe examined the transaction histories, she began to frown. She noticed that every cent was spent on Steven; I hadn't even spent on Zachary. Above all, I had been generous to Steven. I bought him expensive things, and none of them were cheap.

When Chloe looked up at me, I said, "You've abandoned Zachary, so I won't ask you for the money I spent on him."

Chloe was still in disbelief after going through the transaction records. She asked, "Did you really spend over two million dollars on Steven across six years?"

Without answering her question directly, I said, "If you question any single one of these transactions, you may point them out. I can explain every expense to you, and I can tell you exactly when I spent this on him."

However, Chloe didn't need any explanation because they were detailed in the records. Frowning, she shifted her gaze between Annalise and the transaction histories. She couldn't accept the fact that Steven had been so stingy with Annalise while she had been generous with him.

On second thought, Chloe realized that Annalise must have made a lot of money as a housewife. Steven had earned even more money; even if he hadn't spent them on Annalise, he would've bought her many expensive items.
