After Divorcing my Captain Husband (Chloe and Michael)

Chapter 523 Is He Gay?

Seeing the situation unfold, Felipe confidently turned to the judge. "Your Honor, I believe the case has become quite clear at this point."

The defense lawyer had no additional evidence or new witnesses to bring forth.

After consulting with the jury, the judge upheld the charges of defamation and slander against the defendant. She was ordered to publicly apologize to Chloe that evening and to pay damages.

Given her influential online presence, the court also prohibited her from logging into that account to post false information, which would be suspended immediately.

As they walked out of the courthouse, Chloe turned to Felipe with gratitude in her eyes. "Mr. Moore, you were incredible today! Thanks to you, everything went so smoothly."

Felipe smiled modestly. "It was the solid evidence that made the difference; I can't take too much credit."

He was so humble, but Chloe knew that the confidence and ease he displayed in court couldn't be faked. No wonder Candy claimed his win rate was a hundred percent.

With a lawyer as stable and competent as him, anyone would struggle to keep up.

However, there was still one thing Chloe didn't quite understand. "Mr. Moore, when did you find out that woman knew Lucy?"Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

A hint of regret flashed in Felipe's eyes. "I'm sorry, Ms. Nelson. To gather more evidence, I had to do a bit of digging into your past. That's how I discovered her connection with Lucy. If that feels intrusive, I apologize." Chloe shook her head vigorously. "No, no, I should be thanking you for finding that crucial evidence."

She was just curious about why Lucy would have any ties to this woman.

What benefit could spreading rumors about her have for Lucy?

Just then, another man approached from behind. It was the lawyer representing the woman.

He regarded Felipe with a cold stare before scoffing, "You haven't changed a bit. Always so aggressive."

Felipe's expression darkened instantly. "It's my duty to fight for my client's case."

"Of course. It's clear that your only concern is your cases and your identity as a lawyer. No matter who's sitting across from you, you attack without mercy. Leaving you was the best decision I ever made."

Chloe blinked in disbelief, eyes wide as she processed the exchange between the two men.

She couldn't quite believe what she was hearing.

Among those who had come to the hearing today, besides Michael, were Candy and Quinn. Only Jessica had missed out due to classes.

So when Candy approached, she caught the tail end of the conversation.

past What's the point of bringing it up now?"

The man let out a disdainful laugh. "You're right. It's pointless. You'll never learn how to love, will you? You're destined to be single for life."

With that, he turned away, clutching his folder as he walked off without a backward glance.

Candy shot Chloe a glance, and Chloe felt a wave of awkwardness wash over her.

"Ms. Nelson, I have some other matters to attend to. If you need anything in the future, feel free to reach out," Felipe said, already moving down the stairs before Chloe could respond.

Candy elbowed Chloe lightly. "Wait, is he... gay?"

Chloe blinked, pondering for a moment. "I think... maybe?"
