Chapter 23 Isn't Your Husband the Best?
"Mia, you don't know that..." Stella chuckled. "He's very nice to me..."
"Nice?" Mia raised her brows and showed disapproval.
On the second day after their wedding, Stella went to a store to get a refund for the wedding dress. But
the salesperson humiliated her. Hence, Liam bought the most expensive wedding dress for her in a fit
of anger and asked the salesperson to kneel and get her body measurement. Mia had once heard
Stella mention that.
At that time, she felt that Liam was a very unreliable, vain, and irritable man who cared too much about
his dignity.
The most important thing was that he used Stella's savings to enjoy a great life.
"Stella, you're too naive and don't know much about marriage if you think he's nice to you just by how
he stood up for you in the wedding store and gave you his family treasure."
"Both parties have to work hard together for their marriage. You can't work alone while he does nothing
and enjoys life by spending the money you earn."
Mia became angry since Stella let her down. She then poked the latter's head once.
Stella was a virtuous woman, but she was too honest.
She would remember it forever even if others bestowed a bit of kindness on her, and she would try her
best to repay that kindness for the rest of her life.
Liam was a gangster who frequented prisons. Hence, he would find it very easy to fool a naive and
pure woman like Stella.
"He's a man, but he doesn't work at all. He just spends his wife's money. Can he still be considered a
man?"
Mia added. However, Stella's face sank. Her eyes were no longer gleaming with the previous light. She
looked at Mia solemnly. "You can't say that about my husband."
Mia was struck speechless for a while.
"Yes, I take his side and spoil him!" Stella sounded fierce when she became angry. "He's my husband.
Shouldn't I protect and spoil him? I know that he has a lot of flaws and these flaws are serious to you."
"But I'm the one who lives with him. I know best what kind of a person he is!"
"I think that he's not a bad guy even if he fought against others and got locked up. Besides, he's a man
of indomitable spirit. And I'm the one who lied to him in this marriage. He doesn't know about my
identity up until now. If I didn't marry him, the Taylor family wouldn't have paid to cure my mother's
illness. So, I have to thank him!"
"So..." Stella swallowed. Her face flushed. "Please don't condemn my husband in front of me again. I
don't want to hear that."
Mia stared at Stella with a wide-eyed gaze.
She had known Stella for many years, and she always felt that Stella was a gentle but reserved
woman. Unexpectedly, Stella had such a glib tongue when she argued with others. She sounded like a
talented lawyer. Besides, her stubbornness and power made her look quite adorable.
Mia regained her wits and gave a few self-mockery laughter. She then heaved a sigh and gave in.
"Okay, fine. I'll never dare to scold your husband in front of you again. Alas, you guys are a couple who
sleep in the same bed. I can't be compared to him..."
However, the rosiness on Stella's face grew deeper when she heard that statement.
Mia misunderstood the reason for Stella's blush, so she purposely smiled mischievously while looking
at him. "Speaking of sleeping in the same bed... Is your husband very good at that and he bewitch
you? If not, why do you side with him so loyally? And you desperately let him spend your money?"
"Mia, you..." Shyness and awkwardness enveloped Stella. "What are you talking about?"
"All right, don't be shy around me." Mia smiled more joyfully. "It's fine. You have a pretty boy with you
from another perspective. He's handsome and good in bed. Well, this money you spend is worth it."
