My Aloof Husband, Mr. Drexler, Dotes Me Excessively

Chapter 672: Chapter 672: So He Was Just Afraid of Divorce?

"Not long after the young master was born, the master was only happy for a few days before the lady requested a divorce! The master was furious, and in his rage, he drove both the lady and the newborn young master out of The Drexler Family." As he spoke, Butler Ye sighed repeatedly.

Summer Shawcross was stunned; she hadn’t anticipated that things would turn out this way...

When the butler had told her about Master Drexler’s many cruel acts, she had always thought that Master Drexler must be a heartless person!

"We all understood that the master’s actions at that time were just out of anger, wanting the lady to soften. If the lady had shown even a little softness, the master would have surely changed his mind out of pity. But who could have imagined that instead of expressing any dissatisfaction, the lady thanked the master for setting her free." Butler Ye said as he recalled.

"The master was sick with anger for several days, but the lady was truly determined. Not only did she never mention returning to the Drexler Family, but she also never contacted the master."

"The master’s character was stubborn, and he held onto his grudge, so he left the mother and son outside. However, the truth was that he sent people regularly to check on their situation, and upon learning of their financial struggles, he secretly sent them money. But when the lady found out, she didn’t appreciate it at all, and instead, she gave the money to the beggars on the street. The master was even more furious upon hearing this."

"So, did Master Drexler ever go to see the mother and son?" Summer Shawcross couldn’t help but interject and ask.

"Of course he did, but he always went secretly, not daring to let the lady know." At this point, Butler Ye pondered for a while before answering.

"Thinking back now, it was probably because the master was worried that the lady would serve him divorce papers. After all, at that time, the lady was determined to divorce, and every chance she got, she sent the divorce papers to The Drexler Family. The master’s current heart condition stems from the stress he endured back then!"

"..." Listening to Butler Ye’s words, Summer Shawcross was at a loss for words. It seemed that the situation was completely different from what she initially imagined?

She had thought that Master Drexler was so ruthless and powerful, leaving his wife and child to suffer outside. But it turned out he was just afraid of divorce?

However, when she thought about the old man’s stubborn and sharp-tongued demeanor, it indeed didn’t seem like he was someone who would pursue and win over a woman. So... being abandoned by his wife was understandable!

Now she finally understood why Master Drexler was so twisted!

To be hated by his wife for so many years and never forgiven—it would be strange if he were psychologically normal.

"For so many years, the lady never forgave the master until later, when news of her critical illness came... The master couldn’t bear it anymore and secretly went to see her. After returning, he locked himself in the small courtyard for several months..."

Summer Shawcross couldn’t help but sigh, feeling a bit regretful in her heart.

Even though it was just the butler narrating, it always felt like there was no need for Master Drexler and the lady to end up the way they did.

Because at least from what it sounded like, even if the lady didn’t love Master Drexler, she might have been able to live in harmony with him, and having children for him at least showed some affection towards him.

Unfortunately, both of them seemed too stubborn, too strong-willed, and neither was willing to back down. The result... a lifetime of regret.
