The Billionaire CEO Wants to Marry Me Every Day

Chapter 175: Biological Father

Summer Monroe saw this part, and her temples throbbed with tension.

Could this "he" be her biological father?

Summer Monroe couldn’t wait to turn to the next page.

The date on the next page was much later, a full two months had passed.

August 17, clear skies.

I bumped into him again today. When I mustered the courage to ask for his contact information, he spoke first... and even agreed to a dinner tomorrow night. Strangely, though, I’ve been investigating his identity for the past two months, and I found nothing. Who exactly is he?

Summer Monroe skimmed through the diary quickly, watching as two people went from chance encounters to profound love in just a month.

Sometimes, Summer Monroe couldn’t help but smile with a knowing aunt-like grin as she read.

In the diary, she saw her mother as a young girl.

But Summer also noticed that her mother always held doubts, particularly about his identity.

Almost three months together, and she still didn’t know who he really was, only that he had a noble background, so much so, that she might not even be worthy of him.

So during this time together, her mother didn’t forget to better herself. Not only did she expand the company overseas, but she also elevated the Monroe Group to the stature of The Four Great Families of Crestfall.

This was also the time when the Monroe Group developed the fastest.

Summer Monroe read through her mother’s love diary during those three months, and then suddenly, the diary skipped two pages.

Summer quickly flipped past the blank pages, and when the entries resumed, five months had passed—

April 15, overcast.

"I finally know his identity, and I finally understand the distance between us. It’s a distance I’ll never be able to reach... Just like his mother said, I’m not worthy of him. I don’t want to hold him back, but... I’m pregnant. The child is innocent, what should I do?"

Summer Monroe felt her heart clench at this point.

As expected, this "child" was her.

Summer hurriedly continued to turn the pages.

April 18.

He was taken away by his family, and he’ll never come back. I understand him, but I also hate him, and at the same time, I still love him. The child is innocent, I won’t deny the child the chance to be born, even if this is a mistake, I’ll take the mistake to the grave.

April 27.

I’m getting married, and the groom is not him. I want to give the child a legitimate status and a complete family. Even if... it means a lifetime of unhappiness.

Summer Monroe’s tears spilled over.

So this was the truth.

For her sake, her mother hastily married someone unworthy of her, whom she didn’t love at all.

However, the diary didn’t end there.

Summer cried for a while, wiped her tears, and continued reading.

The subsequent diary entries were fragmentary, no dates, showing her mother’s state of mind was no longer at peace.

"I had a simple wedding today, and I feel guilty towards Henry Stanton, but still, I can’t find it in myself to love him... However, I will compensate him in other ways. When the child is born, I’ll tell him the truth. Whatever blame he has for me, I’ll accept it."

"A month into marriage, and Henry Stanton is a completely different man from when we met during the matchmaking. His narrow-mindedness, snobbery, and shortsightedness are unbearable. But... I’ll persevere."

"Henry Stanton’s brutality was beyond my expectations, today he was drunk and hit me... the child is, fortunately, safe."

"Married for six months, Henry Stanton has completely depleted all my guilt. Once the child is born, I’ll divorce him! With a father like this, the child doesn’t stand a chance."

"Today my precious baby girl finally arrived into the world. This is the happiest day of my year."

"His family came knocking, perhaps suspecting my Sadie... I can’t let them take her away! But, this also means I can’t divorce Henry Stanton..."

The subsequent diary entries were spaced far apart and only recorded trivial matters.

Until—
