This had been a major issue between you and your Dad. It caused a major strife in your already strained relationship. There was some bad blood between Ben and your Dad. It happened years before when you and Peter were kids. You didn’t even know your families knew one another until that day. Your Dad assumed Peter was like his father which was far from the truth.
After you and Peter got married and had kids, they at least tried to get along for your sake and for the kids.
A couple of years before you and Peter got married, you broke up for a short time, about three months. The two of had a huge fight that started over something stupid. Peter had an affair during that time with a woman named Joan, who was separated from her husband. (I’m using part of a storyline from Chicago Justice.) Peter told you about the whole thing when the two of you started talking and working things out. You were hurt but glad he was honest with you.
Almost two years ago, the affair was going to be made public by a journalist that Peter was going to subpoena to testify. While you knew the truth, Joan never told her husband. Your Dad was concerned about your reputation and that you’d be humiliated. That was a whole other fight between you, your Dad and Peter.
Peter’s recent drinking is not sitting well with him.
The upcoming issue that Peter is being accused of sexual harassment is going to just add to the tension.
