Chapter 276 I told Dorothy, "My ex-mother-in-law just called to tellI'm not good enough. She warnednot to even think about remarrying her son." Dorothy looked incredulous. "You're already divorced! Isn't it delusional of her to say things like that to you still?" "Who knows?" I shrugged. "She probably thinks I'm still the spushover..." I added slowly, "The kind who lets her play the overbearing mother-in-law." Dorothy frowned. "How did you put up with these people for so long?" "Honestly..." I wondered the sthing. "Back then, I was so in love with Steven that I thought any sacrifice was worth it to be with him. I kept telling myself things would get better if I just endured.

"Then, I fell out of love. After that, I stopped caring so much. I just wanted to keep my distance." I was surprised by my own growth as I said this. "They're not part of my life anymore. So, they wouldn't affect my mood." Dorothy turned her attention back to Willow. "I'm glad you've moved on." I nodded and agreed, "Me, too." Chloe stared at her phone in disbelief after hearing the dial tone. How dare Annalise hang up on her? That was so disrespectful of her! She had to demand Steven not to get back with Annalise!

Steven told her the truth, "She has no intention of getting back together." "She must be lying!" Chloe insisted. "You're handsand wealthy-she'll never find a better man!" She sounded so confident, but Steven felt lost hearing her words. Was he really as great as Chloe claimed? Probably not.

So what if he was wealthy? If Annalise had cared about that, she would have claimed her share in the divorce. After all, he had built his career during their marriage But Annalise had not asked for anything. All she had wanted from their marriage was love, and that was the one thing he had failed to give her. Steven felt nothing but guilt.

"She has her own career now, and she makes over six figures."
