Chapter 258

I had waited for over eight months, only to have my request denied!

The court's decision stated something about how being married for twenty years isn't easy and that we should weather the storms together...

After the woman finished speaking, she broke down into tears.

Those around her, moved by her distress, began to comfort her.

"If he abuses you again, just call the police and have him arrested. Once there's evidence, the court is more likely to grant a divorce."

"Exactly, if the first trial doesn't work out, apply for a second one. As long as you're determined, the second trial should rule in your favor."

The woman sobbed, her face streaked with tears and mucus.

"An appeal for a second trial can't be filed for another six months. I want to call the police and have him arrested, to give him a criminal record. But he threatens me with our child's future. If the child's father has a record, it could ruin his chances of a stable career. In this tough economy, having a secure job is everything... I've endured him for our child's sake for so many years. But this year, he's gone too far, breaking my ribs. I can't endure it any longer. I decided to leave with nothing, giving him all our assets, while I take care of the child without demanding alimony. Only then did he reluctantly agree. Yet, it took me two months just to schedule the divorce cooling-off period... If I wait any longer, the second trial will start."

Hearing this, the crowd sighed in sympathy.
