My [21F] boyfriend [27M] suspects me of being a gold digger even though we met when he had nothing

When we met he didn’t have any money, a job or even a house. He just separated from his wife (still not divorced) and my parents don’t want to see him anymore. I have a good job, go to university and work hard.

I have always defended him against my parents and fought for us, despite having a history of always doing what they say. This was extremely hard for me.

Despite everything I stayed with him and am now seeing him flourish. He’s getting a good job, losing weight (he was overweight as well) and has found an apartment. He has admitted before that I am a little and used to be very much out of his league. But I honestly love him for the quirky, nice guy he is.

He has had a rough childhood and was raised by a single mother. The stories are long and complicated and he’s not a very good story teller. I find out new things every time he tells it again. So naturally I ask about the same story multiple times.

One of the story is about his dad not having contact with him anymore. His father is the board member of a very big company tech and is very wealthy. He ended up giving him some money and taking my boyfriend out of his will. I ask about that specific part a lot because I still don’t get it (when, how, why).

He just now got mad at me for asking again. And very suggestively said I “sure ask about the money and will a lot”. This really hurts me, how could he think that I care about that... I just sent him away to walk the dog because I just don’t want to talk to him right now.

I’ve talked to him about the money before, because right now it’s stowed in a way where he can only access it with his wife’s permission. And I don’t think that’s right since things can go sour quickly. But I’m doing that for his best interest, I have a high education and will make a nice amount of money with or without him, a gold digger is the opposite of what I am. I work hard to have my own cash... I am devastated

TL;DR my boyfriend thinks I’m a gold digger because I ask about his rich dads will too much even though I met him when he had nothing.

update We just talked and he clarified that he doesn’t want to talk about it is because I just want to hear a juicy story. I then said I’m just interested in him and he can ask me things about my life that are difficult as well. He then said I never experienced anything difficult in my life. Completely ignoring the fact that I was suicidal, am autistic and my brother is mentally disabled. No, it wasn’t as hard as his, but his just hurts. It’s not a game who has it worse.
