Jay no longer insisted. He merely walked toward Angeline and whispered, "If my mother makes things difficult for you, there's no need for you to endure it. Find an excuse to come home." Angeline smiled and nodded. "Alright."

Then, Angeline, accompanied by Josie and Sis Shirley, went to Chloe's residence-the Fleeting Time Villa.

Chloe's villa was crowded with her childhood playmates every day. After her long absence, there seemed to be endless topics between the girlfriends.

When Angeline and her companions arrived, the room filled with women stared at her covetously. Their eyes were so sharp that they almost pierced countless holes into Angeline's soul as they checked out every single inch of her body.

Angeline's body instantly stiffened. She was like a child who had recently learned how to walk, her steps somewhat awkward and messy.

Chloe sat on the sofa with a teacup in her head. She was sipping the tea leisurely and did not bother raising her gaze.

Angeline walked up to her and called out timidly," Mom."

Chloe did not respond to her either, merely glancing at her dimly.

The whole atmosphere was extremely awkward.

Angeline hurriedly handed over the gift she had prepared and said with a flattering smile, "Mom, this is a small gift I prepared for you. I hope you like it."

Chloe took the box and opened it in public.

Everyone's gaze was fixed on the box.

Inside the box lay a set of jade jewelry. The color was clear, and the style was complicated. It exuded the charm of belonging to royalty.

All the women were stunned as they exclaimed, "This set of jewelry is indeed extraordinary."

Yorks Stronghold's women loved precious stones, so everyone had a basic knowledge of jewelry and its value.

This set of jade jewelry was originally polished from top-quality jade. Moreover, it was designed by Jay for Angeline as it symbolized good health.

It could not be more suitable for Chloe.

All the women started to envy Chloe. "The gift your daughter-in-law gave you was prepared so thoughtfully, Chloe. You're so fortunate to have such a generous daughter-in-law." However, Chloe showed a lack of interest. She raised her gaze to look at Angeline indifferently and said

somewhat languidly, "Where did you buy this set of jewelry?"

Angeline was startled. She never thought that Chloe would ask the source of the gift. After hesitating for a short while, she hesitatingly replied, "Jaybie made it."

Chloe then misunderstood that this was a gift prepared by Jay for her. She was delighted by her son's sincerity. "JJ is indeed thoughtful."

Chloe then shot a look filled with distaste at Angeline. "You sure are full of tricks. You're merely trying to win my favor using Jay's thoughtfulness."

Angeline lowered her head and said nothing in return.

Josie was outraged by this injustice toward Angeline. She walked forward and spoke bluntly, "This jade jewelry set was given to my sister-in-law by my brother. My sister-in-law treasures it very much, and she wants to give it to you now. It's her way of showing how much she respects you."

Sis Shirley hinted at Josie with a look, motioning her to stop talking.

Chloe's expression turned uglier. It turned out this set of jewelry was not made by Jay for her, but it was given to Angeline instead.

Even at first glance, it was clear that a lot of hard work had been poured into making this set of jewelry. Jay's love for Angeline was making Chloe feel inexplicably sour.

Chloe was suddenly in a fit and threw the jewelry box back to Angeline. She said, "You don't treasure the things that JJ gave you and you're even giving them to someone else. You're trampling on JJ's effort. A woman like you is not worthy of Jay's love."
