After Divorcing my Captain Husband

"I know. The 'accident' I'm referring to wasn't your mother willingly sleeping with the Miller."

Wendy had always loved her husband deeply, even after he cheated on her with Tiffany. She never truly let go of him; otherwise, she wouldn't have suffered a mental breakdown from the shock. Chloe frowned. "Then what do you mean?"

Amanda sighed deeply, "Back then, your father was doing business and needed the Miller family's investment. But they didn't see any potential in the project and turned him down. So your father had to find another way." Chloe didn't understand what she meant.

She knew her father had always been in business but had never heard Wendy mention this.

"Your father offered your mother to the head of the Miller family to secure the deal."

The implication was clear.

Chloe was filled with shock.

Although her memories of Charles were hazy, she remembered him being a devoted father when she was young.

He would bring her gifts every time he returned from a business trip and was always considerate towards Wendy.

If it weren't for his affair being exposed after his death, she would have always believed her parents had a loving relationship.
