Chapter 437 Avery and Betty Were Alike

Avery sneered. "His ex-wife, Maya Hernandez, is my good friend."

Edgar looked at Avery and swallowed.

"When she was thirteen, Maya immigrated to Country M with her parents. Although we rarely saw each other, we kept in touch every day. Five years ago, she told me she got married, arranged by her family." Avery's voice carried sadness.

"Three years ago, Maya suddenly called me. She cried, saying she wanted a divorce."

Avery looked down at the man on the ground, his face covered in blood.

"She said her husband was abusive, and if she stayed, she would die."

"She filed for divorce, but it was rejected. A year ago, she said she finally got free and received the divorce certificate, but because they had a child, they still met."

"Half a year ago, Maya went missing. I couldn't reach her."

"I asked my friends in Country M to help investigate, and I found out that Maya was abused by Dennis, beaten to the point of being unable to take care of herself. She's still in the hospital. She suffered severe harm both physically and mentally."

Avery frowned and spoke again. "When I went to see her, she had already gone mad."

Because Maya went mad and had mental issues, Dennis ultimately escaped legal punishment.

In the past six months, Avery had her aunt contact this man, luring him back to the country under the pretense of marriage, all for today.

"I didn't see anything." Edgar raised his hands. "I saw nothing. I only saw him trying to hurt you. You acted in self-defense."

Several waitresses also nodded. "We all witnessed it. He tried to assault you. You acted in self-defense."

Avery smiled and called the police.

In fact, she was sure that this man wouldn't pursue the matter because he feared provoking the Hawthorne family and embarrassing himself.

Most likely, this matter would end here.

"Let's go." Avery signaled Edgar to leave before the police arrived to avoid trouble.

"Can you handle this alone?" Edgar didn't leave.

"He wouldn't dare offend my family." Avery was sure.

Edgar thought for a moment and then took Avery's phone to call his own number. "Let's save each other's numbers. If you can't handle it, call me, and I'll help you."

Avery raised an eyebrow. "You're quite righteous."
