Chapter 770 The Real Culprit 

“I suppose you wouldn’t want everyone to know about your father’s past affairs,” Patricia said, meeting. Damien’s gaze sincerely. “My husband has always been aware of my infidelities. This is all he asks of you, so don’t push him to expose the scandal to force your cooperation.”
