After Divorcing my Captain Husband (Chloe and Michael) novel Chapter 571

Although Aiden didn't know why they were there, he recognized Michael. The moment he saw Michael, he walked over excitedly, extending his hand for a handshake.

After all, being in business, who wouldn't know the Shawn family?

Michael graciously shook his hand, and the group entered the house. Ava then asked everyone what they would like to drink.

But William didn't waste any time and spoke in a severe tone, "Mom, Dad, I'm here today because I have something to ask you."

Both of his parents froze. The last time William was this serious, he had announced he wanted to become a chef, so they were instantly on edge, fearing he might say something equally shocking.

"Mom, Dad, did you have another son when you were younger?"

As soon as he said this, both of them held their breath.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You've been our only son all our lives. Where would we get another one from? You really have some wild ideas!"

William frowned. "I already know, so there's no need to hide it from me anymore!"

Ava was so frustrated that she turned to her husband. "Aiden, say something to him! What kind of nonsense is he spouting?"

Aiden's face grew stern, a deep furrow forming between his brows, making him appear intimidating without even trying.

"You rarely come home, and now that you do, you say things like this. Are you deliberately trying to upset your mother and me?"

Even though the Clarks' reaction was one of shock and anger, Chloe noticed they showed panic when they heard the question.

She handed the surveillance footage in her hand to William, who passed it to his parents. "Take a look at this. I'm not making things up; the evidence is right here."

After watching the video, the Clarks' faces turned extremely grim.

Before they could say anything, Michael spoke up, "The video has been verified, and there's no sign of tampering. You don't need to doubt its authenticity."

Hearing this, Ava suddenly lost all strength in her legs and collapsed onto the sofa behind her.

She clutched her chest as if deeply shaken.

William blinked. "I just want to know the truth. Didn't it ever cross your minds that I would find out one day?"

Aiden sat down, but his legs were trembling uncontrollably, revealing his inner turmoil.

As the seconds ticked by, Michael's patience was wearing thin.

"If you choose not to speak, I'll have no choice but to involve the police. If this person is arrested and sentenced, don't come asking me for leniency."

Ava, who had been silent up until now, suddenly stood up upon hearing this.

"I knew that child wasn't up to any good. I'm done with this! Aiden Clark, this mess from your younger days is for you to clean up!"

With that, she stormed upstairs, slamming the bedroom door shut with a loud "bang".

Seeing this, William realized the situation was even more complicated than he had imagined.
