The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

Chapter 258

I retorted, "So do you think every meal Zane and I have together should be paid for by me?"

The surrounding crowd began to murmur, clearly disapproving of Rowena's shamelessness.

Nearly losing her composure in anger, Rowena snapped, "That's not the point! The point is, Zane won't support us because of you."

Zane stood up and took out the bank statements that he had asked Eric to print earlier, showing the monthly transfers to his family. "Why don't you tell everyone how much you've been spending every month?" Rowena froze on the spot. She had always relied on her tactics to work without resistance. It never occurred to her that Zane would counter her so directly.

Zane unfolded the statements, and, seeing that the crowd was paying attention, he made sure to distribute copies for everyone to see.

The onlookers gasped when they saw the monthly expenses. It was over 500 thousand dollars every month.

They turned their gaze to Rowena.

Suddenly, it became clear that it was Rowena who was in the wrong. Zane had been giving her such a large sum every month, and yet, she didn't even try to save a little and instead chose to cause trouble. Zane continued, "The 500 thousand dollars is just the amount I've transferred to you. It doesn't include the extra amounts you've demanded.
