The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

Chapter 586

Steven's head throbbed, but it couldn't compare to the heartache he felt.

When Steven recalled the days he spent with Annalise, he suddenly realized that Annalise had been looking out for him all along. Meanwhile, he had never cared for Annalise. Even after Annalise gave birth to their son, he evaded his responsibilities as a husband and father, using work as an excuse.

Annalise was considerate of the pressure he was under. She never once asked him to take care of their son. As a wife, Annalise was amazing; as a mother, she was exemplary.

From the beginning until the end, Steven was the only person who failed.

At that realization, Steven let out a bitter laugh at himself. Suddenly, a distant memory rushed back to him.

Steven remembered the time Annalise had to deliver the baby when he had just made some money. He feared that paying for Annalise's childbirth would cause financial problems for the company. If the company didn't have enough funds, it could lead to unexpected crises.

Ultimately, Annalise had to bear the costs the childbirth alone.

Steven felt ashamed.

At that time, Annalise was pregnant. She came from a distant place, married him, and moved in with him. Annalise had no way to earn money.
