After a few chews, her eyes lit up. "This is incredible! The best braised beef I've ever tasted." It really was delicious. Even better than what Connor made.
A smile spread across Ann's face. "Lisa never liked my cooking. She always said no matter how good it looked, it still tasted like poverty." Ann sighed, realizing too late how inappropriate her words were. Her face flushed with embarrassment, but Chloe just smiled. "I've eaten at all the fancy restaurants in Riverbrook, but none of them compare to your cooking." A warm feeling spread through Ann's heart. They began to eat. Ann was clearly cautious around Chloe, not daring to serve her more food, but occasionally urging her to eat a bit more. Chloe ended up having two bowls of chicken soup. Today, she was truly full.

Was it really because of old grudges? Was it revenge on Leah? Or did she want her daughter to have a luxurious life? Chloe had considered many possibilities.
Ann lowered her head, silent for a while, struggling to hold back her tears. Just when Chloe thought she wouldn't get an answer, Ann finally looked up. "You might not believe me, but I never thought of switching you and Lisa. I had no idea about any switch." The weight on Chloe's heart lifted. She had considered this possibility as well. "Was it John then? John switchedand Lisa and never told you," Chloe said.
