Are 'which' and 'might refuse to' correctly used in the sentence?

Jerry could narrate what had actually happened at the party, which his parents might refuse to believe.

The underlined parts are correct in themselves, but for me the sentence as a whole does not work tremendously well. Some contrast is missing or something. If it reflects what you want to say, I suggest something like this: Jerry could narrate what had actually happened at the party, even though his parents might refuse to believe it.
