The Divorce That Brought Us Back novel Chapter 33

Parker was the sole heir to the Quincy family.

Raised with sky-high expectations, his parents had poured everything into grooming him.

Unfortunately, he was a disappointment. Lacking talent, drive, and decisiveness, he was entirely unfit for the role.

Thankfully, Parker had married Cassidy.

Cassidy was capable, ambitious, fiercely loyal, and fiercely driven. The Quincy parents absolutely adored her as a daughter-in-law.

They were equally invested in the child she was carrying.

Parker would never be capable of running the company in this lifetime.

He was destined for a useless figurehead position.

His parents planned to pass the family empire directly to the child Cassidy was carrying.

That way, for the sake of her baby, Cassidy would have no choice but to dedicate her life to the Quincy legacy.

The Quincy parents were ruthless.

On one hand, they offered Cassidy massive incentives; on the other, they threatened to cut off Parker's allowance, forcing him to salvage his marriage.

Parker resented the hell out of it.

From beginning to end, he genuinely believed he hadn't done anything wrong.

But for the money, he had to compromise.

Reassigning his understanding secretary, chauffeuring Cassidy to and from work every day, buying her endless gifts to win her over, coming home on time every night to take care of her...

Parker hadn't done a single one of those things.

Even though he had to bend the knee, he opted to fake it rather than actually submit.

Cassidy already had a dominant personality and blew minor issues out of proportion. If he yielded to her now, she would rule his life forever.

That wasn't a life he was willing to live.

Knowing exactly what kind of man their son was, Parker's parents kept a close eye on him.

When his mother found out Cassidy was attending a party tonight, she texted him the address and ordered him to go pick her up.
