A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 37

Blair and her duty solicitor, Edward, rushed to Peace City Intermediate People's Court with a group of assistants.

Recently, there was a TV drama, in which Blair played a supporting role, was being shown. A lot of fans of Blair were gathering at the entrance of Peace City Intermediate People's Court.

Upon seeing Blair, those fans screamed and continuously shouted Blair's name in excitement.

Some fans were holding up placards to support Blair, with some words such as "Knock the Two-timer Down", 'Seek Justice for Blair", and "Divorce Zachery and Give Him Nothing".

Blair was moved to tears when she saw so many fans supporting her.

"I feel a lot of pressure these past few days. Thank you for your support. I will work hard." Blair bowed low to the crowd.

Her sincerity moved the fans on the scene. Everyone shouted, "Support Blair!"

Blair was secretly delighted.

As they were getting divorced, Blair's fame was not reducing but growing.

The media and the audience felt great sympathy for her because she was weak. In addition, she played a pitiful woman betrayed by a two-timer in the TV drama, so everyone was immersed in the context. Therefore, her fame was growing.

As long as she won this divorce case, she would be going to be an A-list star.

She would owe it to Zachery.

Just as she was thinking, another car stopped.

Zachery, Audrey, and the others got out of the car together.

They appeared in a low profile.

From afar, Zachery saw Blair sadfishing in front of the media and onlookers and occasionally wiping her tears with a handkerchief.

However, there were no tears in Blair's eyes.

Zachery was tired of Blair's duplicity.

Zachery and Blair entered the courthouse at almost the same time.

They ignored each other, but their eyes were filled with hatred for each other.

...

It was court time.

Everyone entered the courtroom one after another.

Zachery and Blair sat in the plaintiff's and defendant's seats respectively. As soon as they sat down, they glared each other.

When the judges came in, Blair's expression suddenly changed. She looked depressed and sad, like a pitiful woman who had been injured.

Seeing Blair's expression, Zachery sneered.

He thought Blair was pretending again.

At the beginning of the trial, all the evidence was examined, and then the plaintiff presented his statement.

When the litigation materials were reviewed, the plaintiff and the defendant listed each other's mistakes.

Edward stood up and pointed out sharply, "Your Honor, the plaintiff and my client are husband and wife. However, the plaintiff has an affair with another woman and they were caught by my client on the spot. The evidence has been handed over to you, Your Honor, and you can have a look."

The judges examined the evidence and nodded.

Edward continued, "In addition, after the plaintiff hurt my client, he incited netizens to insult my client and even humiliate her family online. What he did seriously hurt my client mentally. My client has been in insomnia every night and she can't fall asleep without sleeping pills."

As Edward spoke, Blair's eyes turned red and tears welled up in her eyes. People felt distressed to see her sobbing.

Afterwards, Edward listed a few more pieces of evidence and invited a few friends around Blair to confirm Blair's mental state.

Edward concluded, "According to the second part of Article 246 of the Criminal Law, the plaintiff of this case has seriously infringed on my client's personal dignity and reputation. Therefore, the plaintiff must apologize to my client in the press and compensate my client for her mental damages. That's all, Your Honor."

Based on Edward's words, the testimony of Blair's friends, and on Blair's emotional state, the judges and the audience showed sympathy for this injured woman.

After Edward finished speaking, Audrey stood up with a smile.

"Your Honor, I have other evidence against the statement of defendant's defender just now."

"Plaintiff's Defender, present your evidence."

Audrey pulled out a dozen files from the folder in her hand.

The secretary at the scene presented Audrey's evidence to the judges.

The judges took turns reviewing the files with astonishment on their faces.

Blair frowned as she looked at the judges' expressions.

She didn't know what kind of evidence Audrey had presented to the judge.

She thought that Zachery had no or little useful evidence. And none struggling would be useful. Moreover, Mr. Edward was helping her.

She was sure that she would win today's case.

Audrey smiled after the judges finished reading the files.

"Your Honor, what I showed you just now is evidence of the defendant's transfer of property. Although the defendant's method of transferring property is very tricky, and she also used foreign banks to transfer it, my client obtained the evidence through some channels."

"In addition, the defendant accused my client of violating her right of reputation. My evidence includes some screenshots of their posts in the media. It can be seen that the defendant deliberately provoked my client before my client replied him."

"As for those provocative remarks, I investigated the IP addresses of those remarks through some channels. Unfortunately, I found some things interesting. Those IP addresses are all the same and indicate the address of a villa under the defendant's name."

Blair's face turned pale.

She couldn't believe that Audrey had such evidence. She was surprised that they found out.

Blair stood up and said, "I didn't. You're slinging mud at me. How would I do such a thing?"

Audrey looked at Blair and said calmly, "Defendant, I'm just stating the facts. His Honor is fair and decisive."

Blair panicked.

Edward stood up.

"Your Honor, the plaintiff is trying to confuse the public and intentionally obscure the fact that the plaintiff cheated on my client."

Audrey said, "Your Honor, although my client has made mistakes, their marriage has been dead to them. Furthermore ... the defendant was the first to be unfaithful, but he is unwilling to divorce my client."

Blair sneered and looked at Audrey with rage in her eyes. "Ms. Audrey, you have to focus on evidence. Can you prove that I was the first to be unfaithful? If you have no proof, what you said is equivalent to slander. I will sue you."

Audrey replied calmly, "Of course I do!"
