A Divorce After My Rebirth -
Chapter 900
Chapter 900 They Haven't Divorced / Yet The courtroom session lasted for several hours. Everyone waited anxiously for the outcome amidst exhaustion and tension.
Both sides engaged in intense confrontation, and Bianca was surprised to replace out Malcolm had such powerful verbal skills in this field.
Of course, she wasn't weak either. She countered his arguments each time. The two sides battled fiercely until the afternoon, when it finally ended! No verdict was announced. They would be informed of the results by mail in a week.
As they exited, John roughly dragged Nancy away. Bianca instinctively wanted to intervene, but Nancy's clear gaze stopped her in her tracks.
Nancy and John left.
Malcolm stood behind Bianca, his warm
© breath brushing against her neck like a demon.
"Didn't disappoint you, did I, Ms: Lawyer?" Bianca, already worried about Nancy, was further incensed by this man's provocation entering her world. In a swift motion, she slapped Malcolm across the face. Thinking about Malcolm's defense and support of that scumbag during the trial made Bianca's blood boil.
She sternly said, "You better not tamper with the outcome, or else..." Or else what? Once, when this man strutted around in her life and did as he pleased, she couldn't do anything about it.
It was the same now, wasn't it? But Bianca still angrily warned, "Enough of your tricks!"
With that, she turned and stormed off.
Malcolm watched her furious departure, and his lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile.
Horatio appeared behind Malcolm, holding a bag. "Lord Malcolm." "Is Zane still in town?" "Yes. He's been looking for you and Ms.
Sanders." "Looks like it's no longer a secret." Malcolm's tone turned dangerous.
Previously, their whereabouts were somewhat concealed. Although Natalie knew, she would never spill a word because she knew Bianca didn't want to see him, nor Zane! Horatio glanced at Malcolm through the rearview mirror and eventually reminded him, "They haven't divorced yet!" Malcolm fell silent.
They haven't divorced? His aura became even more intense at that moment. — "Didn't they divorce already?" Given Bianca's temperament, she wouldn't leave with any lingering issues back in Simeria. But regardless of what happened, there was no denying that Bianca and Zane were married! They were legally husband and wife.
"Since Lord Zane isn't letting go, the divorce isn't possible," Horatio explained.
P . . .
When Bianca urgently left Simeria, any remaining issues there probably didn't matter much to her. At that time, Bianca just wanted to leave! Malcolm was silent. At Horatio's words, the heaviness in Malcolm's chest grew even more pronounced.
He closed his eyes to conceal the
dangerous glint in them, but it did nothing to conceal the perilous air around him. X Did Bianca think that by leaving everything in Simeria behind, things between Malcolm and her would also come to an end? She was mistaken.
How could some things end so easily? After it was all over, Nancy found an opportunity to talk to Bianca. During today's trial, Nancy couldn't believe how ~ strong and articulate Bianca was. But since they didn't get a verdict today, they still felt a bit disappointed.
"Don't worry, it'll work out," Bianca reassured Nancy.
Nancy nodded. Everything had already begun. However, she wasn't sure if this beginning would lead to the outcome she
desired. But after this experience, she had more faith in Bianca. Seeing Bianca's determination gave her hope that Bianca 4 could indeed help her.
Bianca noticed the bruises on Nancy's hand. They were new marks. How many I times had this happened in such a short span of time? "Did he hit you again?" Bianca asked.
Nancy nodded. "Yes." "How have you been enduring all these years?" Bianca didn't dare imagine what kind of torment Nancy had experienced over the years.
$ ; "nyt But Nancy simply replied, "I've gotten used to it." Those words were heart-wrenching, revealing Nancy's despair and I helplessness.
Nancy had thought about leaving before.
But every time she tried, she faced even worse consequences upon being caught. ~~ % So, over time, she didn't dare to leave anymore. She had sought legal help, but replaceing someone who could truly help her was difficult as someone penniless.
After repeated disappointments, it seemed like she had resigned herself to her fate.
"You're the first person to step up and help me," Nancy said, expressing her gratitude to Bianca.
Bianca was taken aback. The village wasn't small, and John was infamous there. Surely, everyone knew about his abuse of Nancy. Bianca had visited Nancy's home, which was arguably the poorest in the village.
Did the villagers just stand by and watch that scoundrel abuse Nancy without ever lending a hand?
Nancy saw what Bianca was thinking.
"When John forcibly took me home, some people looked at me with pity but didn't * dare to help," she said. "Later, I found out that he had deceived most of the neighbors in this village. Over time, everyone avoided him." The fact that the entire village steered clear of him showed just how despicable this scoundrel's behavior was. Bianca couldn't imagine what those villagers had truly suffered because of John. But their instinctive avoidance spoke volumes about the severity of their experiences.
"If it weren't for you, I probably would never have known what hope feels like in my whole life," Nancy confessed.
Her world was shrouded in darkness, with no glimmer of light. "That's enough," Bianca replied. She had heard enough expressions of gratitude. Helping someone wasn't about seeking gratitude but using her power to help them stand
up.
She couldn't bear to see someone with py hope for the future crushed by cruel reality.
"I'm really grateful to you," Nancy said tearfully.
"I hope this situation will be resolved soon," Bianca replied, hoping that nothing would go wrong.
But since coming out of court today, she had a sense of unease. She felt that things wouldn't end so easily. It was like when she was in Simeria; she had a similar premonition back then, too.
"Right," Nancy agreed, hoping this ordeal would end soon.
