Divorce Failed My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 425

When Maeve dropped the name Colter White, it took a second for everyone to process it.

Even Andres was momentarily thrown off.

Then it finally clicked for Andres. His much older half-brother, the one old enough to be his father, was Colter.

If he started recounting his turf wars with Colter, he'd be talking for three days and three nights.

Andres had eventually exiled Colter to the countryside to live out his retirement.

Colter's sons didn't meet great ends either.

And the root cause of it all was the brutal war for succession.

It was a chapter of his life Andres hated looking back on.

He never expected to hear Colter's name come out of Maeve's mouth today.

Confused, Andres asked, "Maeve, what does this have to do with Colter?"

Maeve replied casually, "When I was running some background checks, I stumbled across a few interesting little secrets."

"I wasn't sure if you knew about them or not."

"And since I usually try to stay out of other people's family drama, I didn't bring it up."

Her words were vague, but Andres understood perfectly.

When Maeve said "running background checks," she wasn't just Googling things.

As a legendary hacker, a few keystrokes from her could unearth explosive secrets buried deep in the dark.

Andres cleared his throat, looking slightly uncomfortable.

"What kind of secrets?" he asked humbly.

He had fought Colter for years but had never outright killed him.

That was because, when he was a kid, Colter had actually treated him like a real younger brother.

Thinking back, Andres remembered why they were so close as kids: they both lived at the White Manor.

Back then, Caden White refused to acknowledge Colter as his son.

But Colter's mother died early, so Caden had no choice but to take the boy in.

He brought the unwanted child back to the manor and unceremoniously dumped him on Kayden.

And the ones who suffered the most catastrophic losses were Colter and his three sons.

Kayden had never said a word, but he must have been harboring a venomous hatred for Andres all these years.

Faced with Andres's absolute dominance, Kayden couldn't touch him directly.

So, he went after the person Andres loved most.

And Sofia became collateral damage in a war she had nothing to do with.

Seeing Kayden completely unfazed by his realization, a cold fury ignited in Andres's chest.

"I still called you Uncle White out of respect for our past."

"But in your mind, I was just some ruthless bastard who stole the throne, and you were willing to use twisted black magic to wipe out my entire bloodline."

"Since you clearly don't care about our history, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Andres turned to Butler Tanner.

"Send word to Colter upstate. Tell him his adoptive father is dead, and tell him to come back to Aethelburg to pay his respects."

Andres's final sentence was delivered in a deadly whisper.
