Chapter 1557


    Angeline stubbornly said, "Everyone’s heart is made of flesh. Perhaps if I cook a meal for her, it''ll


    soften her heart."


    Sis Shirley and Josie could not hold Angeline back, so they could only help her with the cooking


    process.


    After working up a sweat the entire day, a meal consisting of in tea and simple dishes was


    presented. When Angeline brought the food to the table, Chloe incessantly chided, "You sure took


    your time to cook up a whole meal. It shows how infrequent you''ve cooked in the past. Angeline, do


    you often starve my Jay?"


    Angeline wiped the cold sweat off her forehead and smiled in a good-tempered manner. She


    replied," Mom, even if I can''t cook, there are servants at home who can. Don''t worry, your darling


    son won''t starve to death."


    Hearing Angeline talking back, Chloe threw the utensils in her hand to the ground and retorted, "You


    truly are maniptive. Do you think I’m not aware of how much Jay doesn’t like the servants''


    cooking? Jay has been the one waiting upon you for the past few years, isn''t it?”


    Angeline drooped her head, feeling slightly at a loss.


    "Mom, the marriagew doesn''t stipte that husbands aren’t allowed to cook, right?" she muttered


    i n dissatisfaction. Angeline had been cooking the whole day and she barely received any words of


    approval. She gave up and stopped bothering altogether now. Even her temper was showing.


    Chloe snorted coldly. "So, this is your true color? The squeamish Miss High and Mighty who can’t


    seem to d o anything and merely depends on men. Are you Jay’s little parasite?”


    Angeline felt her self-esteem being trampled to bits by Chloe, and she felt slightly aggrieved. Her


    heart was getting sore and swollen, and this wave of sentimental sorrow had not passed before


    Chloe hit her with a more brutal attack.


    "I’m not expecting you to do anything. But since you’re not capable of taking good care of Jay, then


    stop trying to keep him to yourself. Let Judy, who’s younger, more beautiful, more virtuous, and


    more capable than you, marry Jay. You shouldn''t be hindering him."


    Monogamy was Angelina''s final bottom line.


    Chloe was provoking her bottom line, and this made Angeline fume instantly. She stuck out her


    chest and sulked. "Mom, I''m in charge of my marriage. Monogamy is the one thing that I''ll abide by


    and it’s m y base limit. If you want your son to marry Judy, then request for him to divorce me


    beforehand."


    After saying this, Angeline left without looking back. Josephine and Sis Shirley hurriedly chased


    after her. Chloe’s girlfriends, who were watching the bustling scene unfold, immediatelyunched


    fierce criticisms against Angelina''s revolt.


    "Goodness gracious, how rebellious! The daughter-inw went as far as to give an attitude to her


    mother-inw. This is truly unprecedented in Yorks Stronghold."

    Chloe clenched her fists in anger and said in a pique, " Hmph, Angeline Severe, don’t you for a


    second think that Jay wouldn''t divorce you just because he spoils you. I''d like to see if he’ll choose


    me, his biological mother, or a useless daughter-inw like you."


    Once Angeline returned to Green Plum Town, she sent Josie and Sis Shirley home. "You guys


    should head back."


    Josephine said, "Should I go in and keep youpany, Sis Angeline?"


    Angeline replied, "There''s no need. Your brother''s inside, and I don’t want him to know about the


    little spat I had with my mother-inw. It’ll put him in a difficult situation."


    Sis Shirley said thoughtfully, "Lil Angeline, call us if anything is going on. Remember that we''re your


    strongest supporters.” "Okay." After Josie and Sis Shirley left, Angeline stepped on the hazy


    moonlight that shone on the ground and opened the door to enter Green Plum Town’s courtyard.


    The house was dark, which meant Jay and the children had not returned home just yet.


    After Angeline entered the house, she was too dispirited to switch on the lights and dragged her


    weary body to the edge of the bed. Then, shey on it and slept in her current attire.


    Her fatigued body felt as if there was a colossal whirlpool enveloping her. The harsh words Chloe


    spat out were still ringing in Angeline''s ears, and there was a burst of sadness in her heart.


    For the first time, she despised her uncontroble mortal flesh so much. It failed to endure any


    hardships, making her live her life like a piece of garbage.


    Her body’s weariness was getting more severe, and Angeline''s mind was like a flood. As she


    indulged in her imagination, she seemed to have foreseen her future.


    Mom was reducing her to nothing more than trash day by day, while Jaybie was caught between the


    two of them. She had failed to meet her mother-inw’s requirement of wishing she was like any


    other daughter-inw who was healthy and could take good care of their family.
