Divorce to Destiny: Reclaiming My CEO Husband by Anney GW

My CEO 98

When it's Gordon's turn, he stands confidently, presenting our case with precision.

He begins, his voice clear and assertive. "Your Honor, the affidavits we've presented testify to Ashlyn's past behavior raises serious concerns about Abby's safety."

Gordon paces the floor, his footsteps echoing in the tense silence. He continues speaking, his tone unwavering. "Until Ashlyn's accusations against my client are proven to be the truth, we cannot overlook the possibility that Ashlyn herself poses a significant risk to Abby Joseph."

Jayden's lawyer jumps to his feet, his face flushed with indignation. "Objection, Your Honor! This is speculative and slanderous. There's no concrete evidence to support these claims."

Gordon doesn't back down, stepping closer to the bench. "Your Honor, if I may. Ashlyn's character is as much in question as my client's. We have reason to believe that she may have put her own unborn baby at risk on purpose."

He turns to Ashlyn and Jayden and stares at them as he speaks.

"These are not baseless accusations. The affidavits provide substantial evidence of her unstable behavior concerning my client."

The judge raises a hand to silence them both, her expression stern. "Approach the bench," she says firmly.

Gordon and Jayden's lawyer walk up to the bench, their voices lowering to a murmur as they lean in towards the judge. I can't make out what they're saying, but their animated gestures and intense expressions speak volumes. Gordon's hands slice through the air emphatically, while Jayden's lawyer shakes his head vigorously, his face a mask of frustration.

I glance over at Ashlyn, and the look of pure hate on her face rocks me to the core. Her eyes are cold, filled with malice, and it takes everything in me to hold steady.

My stomach churns, but I force myself to not react, refusing to let her see any sign of weakness. I need Abby away from her.

Jayden, noticing the intensity of Ashlyn's stare, nudges her. She breaks the stare, but the impact of her gaze lingers. I can see the tension in Jayden's face as well, a mixture of anger and confusion.

He grips the edge of the table, his jaw clenched.

The judge finally nods, dismissing the lawyers back to their tables. Gordon returns to our side, giving me a reassuring nod, while Jayden's lawyer looks equally determined.

The room feels charged, the stakes higher than ever. Gordon gives me a look of steely resolve, and I know we're still in the fight, no matter how tough it gets

"Please continue, Mr. Brown," the judge instructs, her voice carrying an air of finality.
