Billionaire's Match

Chapter 851

"So, you went to beg Uncle Oscar, and he threatened you into divorce?" Khloe picked up where Charlotte left off.

She had calculated everything, yet never imagined that Winnie would sacrifice so much for her.

It was one thing for Winnie to act on impulse, but how had Michael agreed to go along with it...

"No.This all happened because of me.You can't get divorced."

Seeing Khloe grow anxious, Michael quickly added, "Khloe, don't blame yourself.Our divorce isn't just because of you."

"But Michael..."

"That's right, Khloe.We've given this a lot of thought.The divorce is a decision we made after careful consideration."

Winnie echoed his words.She looked at Michael, the corners of her lips lifting into a faint smile once more.It was true.

While their decision to divorce had been prompted by Khloe, the deeper reason was that neither of them wanted to make things harder for the other.
