A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 192

Chapter 192 He Vomits Blood In Court

On the projector, everything that had happened continued to replay.

Darlene, who was in the ward, had a pale face and was held down by two tall and strong bodyguards.

She was begging Avery, “I will divorce you and let you marry Vivian. Let me take this child away. In the future, it will be mine alone and has nothing to do

with you.

“Avery, you have no right to kill my child. I have served you for three years, and I don’t owe you anything. What right do you have to let me abort the

child?

“If this child is gone, I will never be able to conceive again…”

Avery’s mind seemed to explode, but those voices continued to echo in his

ears.

His own voice, his own face, and Darlene, who was dragged to kneel on the ground with a pale face.

Avery was about to break down. His palms were tightly clenched and pressed against the table in front of him. Because he gripped his fingers too tightly,

his knuckles made a light sound.

He was unable to face such a cruel and nauseating past.

There was a sharp voice in his mind reminding him, “Stop it. Don’t look at the

screen. Turn off the projector quickly.”

However, Avery was completely out of control. Other than staring at the Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

screen, he could not do anything else.

After a long time, he asked the lawyer beside him again, “Mr. Lester, why is the person in the video me? Is it a fake video? Why is it so realistic?”

Although Micheal was not the most senior lawyer, he had been in the law profession for many years.

Regarding the evidence of a video, he would judge whether it was real or fake.

Videos were not photos, and they were very difficult to forge, not to mention that the faces on the screen were clear and the voices were also clearly

recorded.

When the people spoke, their mouth shapes and their emotions matched.

To put it bluntly, this kind of surveillance video involving so many parts could

not be fake.

However, Micheal was completely unaware of these facts beforehand.

Before he saw these videos, Micheal even thought that Avery truly loved Darlene and treated Darlene well, and Avery’s only mistake was that he had drunk too much and forced Darlene to have sex with him.

That was why he accepted such a simple divorce case. He never thought that in order to win this lawsuit, he would have to use more shameful methods or

techniques.

But at this moment, the man in the surveillance cameras was completely different from Avery, who had personally come to him a few days ago and wanted him to take on this divorce case.

When he found Micheal, Avery only said that Micheal just needed to defend him normally. Avery also said that other than drinking too much that night, he had indeed not harmed Darlene. On the other hand, Darlene had cheated on

him.

There were already people in the public gallery who were discussing and scolding Avery in a low voice.

Micheal stood there. He had defended many divorce cases, but this was the first time he felt ashamed of defending his client.

When he defended Avery, Micheal felt that on the screen, the man who scolded his wife for the sake of his mistress and who did not hesitate to kill the fetus

was himself.

This feeling made Micheal feel extremely embarrassed. For the first time, he felt ashamed to accept the case.

He was also a person with a wife and a child. The family of three was happy.

For so many years, as a lawyer, he worked hard to earn money, so that his wife and child could have a warm and happy family.

But this was the first time that Micheal saw with his own eyes that his client wanted to kill the child in his wife’s belly.

Micheal could not help but feel disgusted. He even forgot his position and responsibility. He immediately said in a low voice,

“Mr. Gallard, I don’t know if you really don’t know about this evidence. Or are you deliberately hiding it in advance? Or did they fake it?

“But I think I have to remind you that if this evidence is true, even if I have to bear the liquidated damages of the lawsuit, I will give up the case. There is no chance of winning.

“I’m sorry. If the evidence is true, I choose to give up defending you in court.”

No matter what the reason was, a man couldn’t kill his own child and punch

and kick his wife.

If the judge still disagreed with the divorce, it would truly be a disgrace to the

law.

Cyrus heard Micheal’s words and said coldly, “Mr. Lester, do you know what you are saying? Since you have accepted this case, you should know that it’s taboo for a lawyer to break the contract.”

Avery seemed to have not heard what they said at all. After a long time, his

eyes turned red and he looked at Cyrus in a trance. “Cyrus, is the person on the screen really me? Did I do something like that?”

There was a hint of begging in his eyes. He hoped that Cyrus could tell him that those videos were fake.

Avery looked at his palm. How was this possible? How could he have done such a cruel thing to his wife? How could he kill his child?

Avery remembered that he wanted to have a child with Darlene even in his dream. They had been married for two years and they were in a good

relationship.

Why?

Cyrus hesitated and did not answer for a moment.

This short hesitation had explained everything.

Avery understood that if those things were fake, Cyrus should be shocked and

angry

and blame Hank and Gustave for having forged the evidence.

However, Cyrus did not. He was at a loss and worried about Avery’s emotional

reaction.

The main judge knocked the gavel and said solemnly, “Please be silent. If the defendant has any objections or doubts regarding the evidence presented to the court, please refute and defend yourself. The court is not a place to chat. Please take the court seriously!”

On the dock, Avery did not explain, and Micheal was silent.

When such sound evidence was released and the defendant did not explain, the trial process immediately became simpler.

In less than twenty minutes, the judge knocked the gavel and announced, “Based on the above situation, the defendant has serious domestic violence, cheating, and indirectly killing the biological child of the couple.

“The defendant had a serious error, and according to marriage law, the court declares that the divorce is granted.”

When the gravel was hammered, the case was settled.

Micheal and Cyrus had pale expressions on their faces. Micheal regretted that he had taken the case too hastily.

He had chosen to defend Avery, but he was ashamed of knowing what Avery had done. Once this case was spread out, his reputation would probably be

ruined.

In addition, he had offended the Gallard family, and he would definitely be suppressed by the Gallard family afterwards. His career would be ruined as

well.

Meanwhile, Cyrus was worried because he noticed that Avery’s mood was terrible to the extreme, and something was wrong with him.

The moment the judge made the final verdict, Avery, who had been unresponsive, suddenly fell back into his chair and vomited.

Avery had always been a person who paid great attention to his image. This was the first time he vomited in court under the watchful eyes of the public.

His violent mood swings made him vomit violently, and he even spat out a

mouthful of sour water stained with blood.

Cyrus hurried over, his face flustered. “Mr. Gallard, please calm down. You need to go to the hospital immediately.”

Avery’s face was pale, and he was in a sorry state.

He raised his eyes to look at Cyrus and was unable to tell what kind of person

he was. “Cyrus, what’s wrong with me? Why am I…”
