Chapter 491

Tanya glanced at Jonathan, well aware of the tactics he was using. She had predicted the possible

strategies they might employ and had prepared reasonable countermeasures.

She stood up firmly, produced a new psychological evaluation report, and handed it to the judge and

jurors.

“Your Honor, this is the latest psychological assessment of my client. This evaluation fully demonstrates

her psychological stability and suitability for raising a child. Ms. Quill will also regularly meet with a

psychologist and can provide Mr. Warner with the latest psychological evaluation reports whenever

necessary.”

Bradley’s legal team had assumed that even if they could not win the divorce case, they would at least

secure custody of Felix. That would not be considered a loss. They never expected there would be so

many surprises during the trial.

To change the current situation, they would need stronger evidence in Bradley’s possession.

Jonathan said, “Your Honor, I’d like to make the final statement on behalf of my client. While we

acknowledge that Ms. Quill’s psychological condition requires more examination, her actions, such as

harming Mr. Thomas Warner and using deceitful tactics like faking her own death, demonstrate a

pattern of dishonesty and malice.

“This raises concerns about her suitability as Felix’s guardian. Your Honor, parents are a child’s first

teachers and role models, and their influence is vital.”

Esther had already anticipated they would attack her in this manner, so she showed no signs. of panic.

“Ms. Hill, this is the final piece of evidence. Please submit it,” Esther said.

Tanya knew that Esther had one last piece of evidence, but she hadn’t revealed it. Therefore, she

refrained from asking Esther about it. When Tanya initially mapped out her trial strategy, she hadn’t

taken into account Esther’s final evidence.

However, once Esther presented it, Tanya followed the proper procedure and submitted it.

“Your Honor, my client requests to submit the final piece of evidence.”

Jonathan’s face soured instantly. As a lawyer, he understood courtroom dynamics well. Even without

the last piece of evidence, Bradley’s chances of gaining custody of Felix seemed exceedingly slim. In

these divorce cases, a child’s preference held significant weight.

“Mr. Warner, if the final evidence turns out to be against us, then-”

Bradley shot Jonathan a cold glare, silencing him. A foreboding feeling settled in Jonathan’s chest.

“The evidence can be presented now,” the judge declared.

As the judge spoke, the large screen displayed a video of Esther removing an oxygen mask from a

patient in a hospital room.

This video had previously circulated widely on the Internet. To prove Esther’s innocence, Jasper had

offered a substantial reward for it.

When Bradley saw that Esther’s final evidence was this video, anger surged in his cold eyes.

Esther stood up and calmly addressed the court. “Your Honor, this video led to my conviction five years

ago. It’s also the same video the opposing lawyer claims shows malicious intent on my part. What I

want to emphasize is that the woman in this video is not me.”

Esther’s assertiveness during the trial made Bradley chuckle. Ignoring the courtroom atmosphere, he

spoke with great hostility. “Esther, do you think we’re all fools here?”

“Bradley, I can’t speak for others, but I do know that you’ve been misled.”

Esther pointed at the figure in the video, an elderly man lying in a hospital bed, and raised her question.

“Do you genuinely believe that the man in the hospital bed in the video is Grandpa Thomas?”

“Esther, what are you trying to say?” Bradley frowned, his expression tinged with mockery.

Esther gazed at Bradley with sincerity and innocence. “Bradley, the person in the video is not Grandpa

Thomas and the other individual is not me either!”
