Beyond the Divorce

The Punishment He Deserves Several doctors were examining my daughter.

One of them said something while looking at the brain CT scan.

The others nodded in agreement, and then he carefully examined Ava again.

Standing outside, I could hardly breathe as I stared at what was happening.

After an hour, the doctor emerged.

He said to Atlas, “Mr.Atlas, it appears that there’s no damage to the intracranial nerves for now, so she should wake up soon.

“However, due to the concussion, there are multiple areas of soft tissue and subdural bleeding, and the subdural hematoma is extensive.

Anyway, I’ll stay here until she wakes up to run further tests.” Matthew kept thanking the doctor that Atlas had engaged for us.

Ava woke up from the coma after 28 hours, to everyone’s relief.

She obediently stared at me through the window while the neurosurgeon examined her.

I smiled and waved at her as I cried, pressing myself against the window to calm her.

After the tests, Atlas arranged to transfer Ava to a luxurious room where I could stay with her.

Ava tried to cheer me up when we were alone by saying she was born lucky.

I was greatly comforted.

Henry and Melanie didn’t show up at the hospital again because I didn’t want to see them.

Matthew and his mother brought us food in turns, but I tried to ignore them.

I no longer considered them family.

Even Ava did the same.

No matter how hard they tried to get her to talk, she held onto me and didn’t allow them to touch her.

Matthew tried to stop me from suing Henry by saying it was a family matter, but I wanted the old man to pay for his actions.

Henry had always been prejudiced against Ava simply because she was a girl.

As he had treated her like dirt, he didn’t deserve our respect, and I would never forgive him.

A week after Ava was released from the hospital, Henry’s case of intentional harm went to trial. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Adrian presented the court with compelling evidence, including the medical report.

As a result of the extensive media coverage, many netizens and Foswood residents gathered to show their support.

Ultimately, Henry received a five–year jail sentence for intentional harm.

He didn’t file an appeal.

After we exited the courthouse, Adrian suggested proceeding with the divorce case now that I had made up my mind.

Not wanting to have anything to do with that asshole anymore, I took his advice.

The summons was quickly issued, and my divorce case would go to trial a week later because he refused to agree to an amicable divorce..

Only then did Matthew realize I was serious.

He anxiously came to the apartment, but I refused to see him.

As it was the weekend, I asked Ivanna to look after Ava while I retrieved our belongings.

There were many things I could not bear parting with, and I did not want anyone else to get rid of my things.

Ivanna offered to go with me, but I turned her down.

She didn’t insist because she knew I wanted to bid the place farewell.

Due to Ava’s incident, I didn’t have time to get the car I had reserved, so Ivanna asked me to take hers and not stay there too long.

When I arrived and opened the door, I felt like crying as I looked around at my familiar surroundings.

It seemed deserted for a long time, and everything remained as it was the day I left, including the clothes I couldn’t pack back then.

I felt like I had just left the place yesterday, but things were different now.

There was no turning back for the marriage.

I could never accept sharing my husband with another woman.
