honestly chloe dad and mao mao dad isnt that bad.
chloe dad didn't neglect nor abuse chloe, while he never save up for chloe future he's taking care chloe in his own way by teaching her how to gamble. mao mao dad is different case, he is in love with the courtesan but got forced to separate from her. he looked for her but got chased off. mao mao hated him because he never exist in her life. both dad but fate just screw them over. chloe dad got I assumed ganged upon because he keep winning and mao mao mother got sick trying to make a living, went insane holding to a promise all because her father forced to be somwhere. both of them are shit dad but not like they wanted to
