Basically what I read was that the mc mom was blackmailed by the empress brother threatened to assault the father. The mc father was drugged at a party. And basically they both did the deed without wanting to. His wife didn't divorce him because she despised the child it was because her husband who was loving turned to a monster she didn't recognize to the point of hurting his own child

Okayy, I read some spoilers from the comment section. In my pov I blame the the royal family.
