The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

Chloe responded indignantly, "Exactly."

Jessica said pitifully, "Yesterday, Steven stood up for me, and Annalise scolded him. Looks like I'll have to avoid Annalise from now on. Otherwise, no one will come to my defense if she bullies me. She'll definitely try to pick a fight with me. If I keep my distance, I can avoid a lot of trouble." Chloe was furious to hear that Jessica was suffering. "No way! I'm going to confront her right now. She really has some nerve to offend everyone. Has she forgotten how I taught her a lesson back home?"

"Mom!" Jessica exclaimed, touched. She covered her mouth with her hands, revealing only her tear-filled eyes.

"I'm so moved that you're willing to stand up for me. Honestly, I feel so much better now. I think the baby in my belly will be happy too. His grandma cares so much about him."

When Jessica realized Chloe couldn't see her over the phone, she pouted. She wiped away her tears, revealing a disdainful smile.

Chloe thought about Jessica's pregnancy and smiled with satisfaction. "Wait for my good news!"

...

After hanging up the call, Chloe got into her car and had the driver take her to Huxham Corporation. She didn't intend to go upstairs, knowing the company had strong security measures. In any case, Annalise was in the wrong. So, Chloe didn't mind making a scene.
