Although Edward White was also very angry at his daughter-in-law's actions, he did not agree with Gabriel White divorcing her for the sake of the bigger picture.
At least not for now.
Because the drawbacks of divorce were too great, firstly, Sophia Parker would have to get a share of the property, and White Group was in no condition to bear that now; secondly, Sophia Parker was now the backbone of White Group, what if she left? What would happen to the company?
Her son was incapable, and her grandson lacked experience. Wouldn't it be a mess then?
Sophia Parker's tears fell even harder upon hearing this, she really wanted to agree, wanted to say she was willing to stay, as long as she could stay in the Whites and watch her son establish his career, she would be willing to work like a horse to atone for her sins...
But she couldn't.
