Chapter 597 Calculated Schemes

• Jolene Hamilton had sworn not to disclose anything, but she would occasionally use it as leverage against me. I was feeling miserable at that time, worried that you would discover my affair with Jolene Hamilton, and resentful that you didn't have feelings for me. So, I maintained a relationship with Jolene Hamilton as lovers.
• My parents had always wanted a child, and coincidentally, Jolene Hamilton became pregnant. My parents were thrilled and reached an agreement with her. She would give birth to a child for our family, and in return, I would provide her with a substantial amount of money.
• As for Jolene Hamilton entering our home, it was not my intention. She somehow convinced my parents without my knowledge, and by the time I found out, she had already moved in. I was afraid she would take advantage of the situation, so I made mistakes. But Lily, I have always loved you. I never wanted to divorce you, nor did I ever want Jolene Hamilton to become a part of our family.
