His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 882

Sprague was among her pursuers, relying not on his own charm, but on the immense assets of the Thomas family. At the time, the Kane and Thomas families had numerous business dealings, and out of all his daughter's suitors, Eleanor’s father chose the one who could bring the most benefit to their family and company: Sprague.

Eleanor, however, refused. At the engagement party hosted jointly by the two families, she publicly tore Sprague apart, declaring him worthless and thoroughly humiliating the Thomas family. Enraged, Sprague confronted her, coldly stating that he was only interested in her superior genes, not her as a person.

Eventually, Eleanor married Sprague. She couldn't defy her father. But at their wedding, she told Sprague in no uncertain terms that she did not love him.

In truth, Sprague did love Eleanor, but her rejection of him was so absolute that it was clear they could never have a happy life together. After the wedding, Eleanor grew increasingly irritable, depressed, and mentally unstable.

Unable to continue, Sprague made a new offer: give him a child, and he would agree to a divorce. Eleanor refused to carry the child herself. After much negotiation, they settled on surrogacy, and the surrogate they chose was Marigold.

Later, Eleanor and Sprague divorced as planned. But the Kane family, disappointed by Eleanor’s willfulness, disowned her. Alone, Eleanor left for Blackspire and was never heard from again.

“So your biological mother… she lived in Blackspire all by herself?” Niamh asked, sensing a dark turn in the story. She watched Jonathan carefully, afraid of touching a raw nerve.
