By the time court was in session again, Kiki had already dried her tears. She didn't want Leonard to look down on her.
Once again, she explained to the court how Xavier and Yvette's marriage was broken and how he asserted cold violence. Without any new evidence, the judge was ready to conclude the trial. Suddenly, Yvette said, "I would like to say something." The judge looked at her and allowed her to speak. She looked at Xavier before turning to the audience.

"Mr. Lane and I never had anything real between us. Mr. Cook mentioned how I had sexual intercourse with Mr. Lane in the past few months, and I admit that is true.
"However, I just wanted revenge. Mr. Lane looked down on me previously, and he never cared for me as his wife.
"I hate him, and I've had countless nightmares during the five years I was away from Tirion. He was in every one of them, and I would always dream of him leaving me for another woman. I do drink, but that's only because it's the only thing that can numb the pain for me."

At that moment, he was certain that she really wanted to get a divorce. She would never be with him. again.
His eyes
turned a little red. He wanted to cruelly fight back, but he couldn't say anything at all. Leonard knew that even if they won the lawsuit, Xavier would still suffer a loss.
Meanwhile, Kiki was tearing up behind Yvette. She knew the latter had been waiting for this moment for far too long.
Due to the sudden turn of events, the judge didn't make a judgment in the end. Instead, the verdict would be made the next day.
When they came out of the courtroom, Xavier's men had already cleared out the reporters outside.
Xavier came out of the room first, but he didn't leave. When Yvette and Kiki came out, he blocked their path. "Let's talk, Yvette."
She shot Kiki an assuring gaze before leaving with him.
