Matthew never thought that Tessa would be so fierce. Up until now, he had believed she was just a soft and gentle woman.

By the time he snapped back to his senses, Tessa had already left.

Yanis was enraged and ready to charge after Tessa. However, Matthew quickly stopped her and said, "Alright, stop making a scene now. This is the entrance to the courthouse!"

She immediately burst into tears and sobbed. "Matthew, you're just a heartless bastard! Your wife was being bullied, yet you just stood there and did nothing! Fuck off! Don't touch me!"

Annoyance filled Matthew's eyes as he said, "Alright, now. Stop making a fuss. Let's go back together."

"What's wrong? Mom, what happened to your face?" Zachary, who had just come out of the restroom, walked toward them in confusion.

"That bitch, Tessa, slapped me!"

Matthew's expression darkened as he said, "Zachary, take your mom away. She's embarrassing us all by making a scene here."

"Dad, what happened?" Zachary asked with a frown.

Matthew explained, "Your mom rushed at Ms. Yates just now, wanting to hit her. However, she didn't manage to hit her and got slapped instead.

"She's the one who started it, so you can't blame Ms. Yates for slapping her. Alright. Let's just go home."

Zachary reproached her for her actions and said, "Mom, I know you aren't happy with the court's decision, but that doesn't mean you can hit someone. Tessa is Dad's lawyer and was just doing her job. You shouldn't have taken out your anger on her."

Yanis' eyes turned red as she screamed, "You're supporting that bitch instead of your own family now, are you? I am your mother! How could you support that bitch over me? Do you even see me as your mother anymore?"
