Various major media reporters were stationed outside the courthouse, eager to obtain firsthand.

scoop.

In the courtroom, once Vivian had managed to calm herself down, she first handed over the documents

pertaining to the dissolution of their marriage to the judge..

Subsequently, she posed a question to Nathaniel, “Mr. Rainsworth, my client has been married to you for three

years. Have you ever been intimate with my client?”

Nathaniel furrowed his brows slightly. “Yes,”

“Mr. Rainsworth, after marriage, did you deliberately give my client the cold shoulder?” Vivian asked again.

Nathaniel cast his gaze toward Cecilia, who was standing beside Vivian. Without even trying to lie, he replied,

“Yes.”

Vivian then produced sphotos of Nathaniel and Stella at a bar. “Mr. Rainsworth, here are sphotos. Ever

since your first love. Stella, returned, you've been staying out every night, haven't you?”

She had thoroughly prepared herself this time. Even if the opposing lawyer was Ernest, she wouldn't let her best

friend lose.

Because she wasn’t sure if Nathaniel spent the night with Stella, she simply stated that he had been staying out

every night. However, those present during the trial would automatically asshe was with Stella.

Without any hesitation, Nathaniel replied, “Yes.”

Vivian hadn't expected Nathaniel to admit it so easily. She continued to question him by asking, “My client and

you were engaged in a marriage alliance. After the death of my client's father, your didn’t receive the agreed-

upon assets from the alliance. So, out of frustration, you not only harmed my client physically and emotionally

but also suppressed Smith Corporation in secret, even going as far as acquiring it. Is that correct?”

“Indeed.”

Nathaniel’s gaze remained fixated on Cecilia, never once leaving her.

He admitted that he was in the wrong regarding those matters.

Cecilia shouldn't be blamed for the mistakes her mother and brother made.

“Mr. Rainsworth, my client has been separated from you for over five years, hasn't she?”

Nathaniel fell silent for a moment before replying, “Yes.”

Vivian had asked everything she needed to. “Your Honor, | believe I've made myself clear. Nathaniel and my

client were in a marriage alliance, which was devoid of any emotional foundation. Furthermore, Nathaniel’s

actions were utterly reprehensible, making him thoroughly unfit to be her husband.

In the documents | submitted, there were also records from over the years. After my client. Cecilia, got married,

she visited the hospital and was diagnosed with major depression, worsening hearing problems, and so on.”

Vivian's forehead was covered in a sheen of delicate perspiration. After saying everything, she returned to

Cecilia's side.

She had initially thought that under such circumstances, Ernest would surely lose the lawsuit. Yet, unexpectedly,

he remained extraordinarily composed.

During the presentation of evidence, he calmly stepped forward. “Your Honor, the evidence that the opposition

just presented all pertains to events that took place five years ago. It does not prove that my client and her

client do not have an emotional foundation for their marriage. Moreover, it couldn’t prove that the two had been

living apart for five years.”

After he had finished speaking, he presented a piece of supporting evidence.

“This serves as evidence of the relationship between Mr. Rainsworth and Ms. Smith over the past six months. The

legal definition of separation probably doesn’t include occasionally staying at each other's place, right? Ms.

Smith, during this period, you and my client have been intimate more than once, isn’t that correct?”

A sudden tightness gripped Cecilia's chest as she looked at Nathaniel, her eyes reddening at the

corners.

Nathaniel never expected Ernest to be so straightforward. He coughed softly, only then did Ernest stop pressing «

her with relentless questions.
