Billionaire's Unforgettable Ex-Wife-Chapter 882 - 551: Can a Marriage Without Blessings Be Happy?

Chapter 882: Chapter 551: Can a Marriage Without Blessings Be Happy?

Damian Sullivan sighed, knowing that the perfect couple had ended up in such a situation because of his own wife, leaving him with no face to say anything.

Russell Miller also kept silent, as he was usually strict with Ivy Miller.

If Ivy had been unreasonable and insisted on a divorce, he definitely wouldn’t agree and would have scolded her.

But now... this matter had nothing to do with his daughter, and he couldn’t wrong her.

Damian Sullivan looked at Russell Miller, "Old Miller, can I have a talk with you?"

"Sure, Damian, let’s go downstairs and sit for a while."

Damian nodded, saying to Paisley Golden, "In-law, it was our family that was in the wrong.

Don’t worry; our Sullivan family will definitely give your family an explanation.

I hope you can hold off on the divorce for a bit, as it’s not a trivial matter.

Henry is now so downcast that he even submitted a request for a transfer from his career.

If this continues, I’m really afraid he’ll..."

"That’s a matter for your family. Since you have such a capable wife, let her take full responsibility for this."

Paisley Golden said and turned away from Damian Sullivan, crossing her arms.

He was Russell Miller’s old commander but not hers.

She had no reason to be subservient to these people.

Russell Miller was in a tough spot, "Damian, let’s go downstairs first, and I’ll try to persuade my wife later."

Damian Sullivan nodded and bowed to Paisley Golden, saying "I’m sorry," before going downstairs with Russell Miller.

The two stood at the bottom of the stairs, smoking, and Russell Miller sighed, "Damian, maybe we should just let this go.

I’ve known that Henry is a good kid, and I really like him, but to have come this far... I can’t say it was a suitable marriage.

Just now, Paisley said something right upstairs; my daughter Ivy has always been lively, hardly ever in such a state.

She’s truly heartbroken to be like this.

Paisley told me about that post in your company.

No matter what others say, I know my daughter well.

She wouldn’t do something so shameless, absolutely not.

Actually, you and Director Rhodes are supposed to be her parents too, but perhaps none of you really believed in her.

Her grievance comes from her family’s mistrust, from not feeling any sense of belonging in your family.

Ivy said Director Rhodes has another favorite candidate for a daughter-in-law.

No matter how hard Ivy tries, it won’t help because of her fondness for that girl.

Given that, I’ll take back my useless daughter.

We’ll remain friends in the future, but let’s drop the in-laws thing."

"Old Miller, look at you, acting so childishly.

Henry and Ivy are truly compatible, and I came here because I genuinely like Ivy."

"But what good is compatibility? This is marriage, not romance.

How many marriages without a mother-in-law’s blessing are truly happy?

Actually, Ivy should count herself lucky that Henry is not a man who only heeds his mother’s words.

If he didn’t stand by Ivy, this marriage would have ended long ago.

That’s why I said I know Henry did his best.

But having tried his best and still unable to change anything, it really should just be let go."

Damian Sullivan felt a bit distressed, "Tonight I returned home to find Henry drunk and smashing everything in the house, saying he’d submitted a transfer request.

At that moment... you probably couldn’t understand my feelings.

Years ago, for Nathan Rhodes’ dream, I went into business with him, but my own dream was to be a soldier.

My son, Henry, was the same; he never liked dealing with company affairs, so we let him join the army.

All these years, he never gave up on his dream, but today he did.

He said that as a soldier, not being able to protect his own wife and children made it shameful to continue.

I actually understand my son’s feelings.

Nathan... from a young age, she’s always been strong-willed.

Back then, I didn’t want to transfer, but her transfer allowance by herself wasn’t enough, so she argued with me at home.

After a month and a half, I finally gave in because I couldn’t bear her nagging; I wasn’t going to divorce her over it, after all.

Back then, I was still a soldier, and so I compromised.

After the transfer, I regretted it for many years, but there’s no regret medicine in this world.

Now, my son is also facing a transfer he doesn’t truly want.

He’s a technical core in the army, and if he leaves like this, I feel really uncomfortable inside.

I know Nathan was wrong in this matter, but only Ivy can soothe Henry.

I hope Ivy can help me."

"Damian, let’s do this: I’ll go home and discuss it with Ivy. If she agrees, I’ll give you a call. How about that?"

Damian Sullivan nodded. It had to be this way since it was the Sullivan family that owed the Miller family, so how could they have the face to force the child?

After Damian Sullivan left, Russell Miller returned home and found Ivy coming out of the living room.

Her face didn’t look good, and she was drinking millet porridge while Paisley Golden was comforting her.

As Russell Miller entered, Paisley Golden spoke coldly, "Don’t come in with nonsense to shake my daughter."

Russell Miller glanced at her and sat across from Ivy Miller, "Ivy, Dad knows you’ve been wronged in this matter. I’m supporting you this time; if you really feel you can’t live with Henry anymore, I won’t blame you for a divorce."

Ivy was a bit taken aback, not expecting her father to say this.

"Dad..."

"When I was working under your father-in-law, I dealt with Nathan many times.

She’s indeed hard to deal with, but what can I do? I’m a soldier, following orders is my duty.

It’s not like I can ignore my boss because I don’t like his wife."

Paisley Golden was extremely unhappy, "Then why did you let my daughter marry into that family?"

"Henry is indeed a good kid, and I’ve inquired about him at his workplace.

He’s a technical core there and usually doesn’t have any ambiguous relationships with women.

Though he’s a bit stern, he surely can make our daughter feel secure.

That’s why I wanted them to meet; at the time, I thought if they liked each other, then ultimately it’s their life to live.

How was I supposed to know they’d end up like this because of Nathan?

Honestly, when Damian told me that Henry was going to transfer, I really felt it was a pity.

It’s really not easy for the army to cultivate such a talent."

After Russell Miller spoke more mildly, Paisley Golden was less angry, and thinking about Henry Sullivan also made her sigh helplessly.

"Actually, I have nothing against that kid; he’s great, but why was he burdened with such a mother?"

Ivy Miller set her spoon in the bowl, her brow furrowed. What was Henry thinking, wanting to transfer? Wasn’t this just unnecessarily worrying her?
