Hearing this voice, the woman slowly turned around and her gaze fell on Arabella, her vacant eyes gradually came into focus. "Arabella......my daughter." Grace stood up slowly, her shaky voice calling out Arabella's name. Arabella went up and jumped into Grace's arms, and the tears could no longer be stopped and kept flowing down her cheeks. Grace looked at Arabella in her arms and stroked her cheek heartily, her eyes full of heartache, and said softly, "Arabella, you've lost so much weight, it's really been hard for you lately." "I'm sorry, Mom, for making you suffer here, I'll find a way to get you out." Arabella said guiltily as she fell into Grace's arms. She lay in her mother's arms, as she always did, and whispered softly to her mother. "Let's go see dad together later. He hasn't seen us for so long, he should miss us......" Arabella spoke off and on, and at first Grace would respond to her, but the later she got, she stopped
In the days that followed, Arabella, after waiting anxiously, finally received a call from Noah, bringing the news that the lawyer wanted to meet with her. After Ezra leaves the house, Beth uses a ruse to call off the caretaker of Arabella, as she did last time. Arabella left the villa as she wished and went to the cafe to meet Noah. When Arabella arrived at the cafe she had agreed to meet Noah. Noah was already waiting for her. Beside him sat a mature male in a suit and neatly coiffed hair. Arabella guessed that this was probably Noah's classmate, the lawyer who was about to introduce her to him. Arabella gave Noah a grateful look before taking her seat. Noah pointed to the man next to him and said to Arabella, "This is Charles, a good friend from my college days. I told him about your situation and he's willing to take on the case." Arabella restrained her inner excitement and politely extended her hand towards Charles, "Hello, nice to meet you. Thank y
It will soon be time for the court date. On several occasions during this time, Ezra tried to find Arabella to vent, but was blocked by Arabella. Arabella also did not step out of the room for a long time, she just quietly waited in the room for the final verdict to come. And the night before the trial, Ezra was once again at the door, knocking on Arabella's door. "Arabella, I'll wait for you in the study. I have something very important to tell you." No mood swings could be heard in Ezra's tone. Arabella sat in the room for a long time hesitating and finally decided to go see what else Ezra had to say. When Arabella arrives in the study, Ezra is looking at the papers on his desk. Seeing Arabella enter, Ezra put down the paper in his hand and rubbed his forehead a little tiredly. Arabella just looked at Ezra indifferently and waited for him to speak. Ezra lifted his head, his eyes looked deeply at Arabella, and he spoke in an unmistakably husky voice, "
The judge's expression was very complicated at this point. He glanced at Arabella and then at Ezra, unable to decide the question that arose before him, waved his hand and let Beth go down first. Arabella, on the other hand, was completely frozen, including Emma, Noah and Wyatt on stage, all of whom were frozen. Beth, as the person who gave Arabella the evidence of domestic violence and the pregnancy report form, as well as the person who encouraged Arabella to sue for divorce, now surprisingly overturned all her previous statements and betrayed Arabella by helping Ezra to testify in court. Arabella only felt that the sky was dark, and the hope that had just been kindled had almost been dashed by now. Arabella looked helplessly at Charles, and there was no longer any hope in her eyes. "Your Honor, we have one more witness here, may we take the stand." Charles gave Arabella a reassuring look and raised his hand again to the judge. "Call the witness to testify.
Arabella stood up violently, she grabbed Charles vigorously, her eyes overflowing with tears, and cried, "Those photos are forgeries, they must be forgeries, you have to explain them to the judge, let them verify them! The judge will be able to prove my innocence!" Charles shook his head, he looked at Arabella heartbreakingly and spoke with difficulty, "Miss Arabella, the divorce case is only a civil case, no one would purposely go for scientific identification for a divorce case, and there is audio and video evidence in addition to the photos." "No, how could this happen! I don't believe it!" Arabella covered her head in pain and shook it frantically, muttering and whispering as tears rolled down her face. Noah looked at Arabella with heartache and just felt his whole heart stop beating. If he could, he really wanted to bear so much hurt instead of her. Noah asked Charles in a trembling voice, "Charles, think again, there must be another wa
Arabella looked at the video that was playing on her phone and stared at it, "How, how did this happen?" It turns out that Ezra somehow moved Grace from the mental hospital, the whole room is very dark, and the picture of Grace's hair disheveled, eyes full of panic. She grabbed the clothes, cowering in the corner, as if something in front of her was threatening her. He threatened her with her mother again! Arabella looked at Ezra indignantly, clenching her lower lip. "Go back with me." Ezra didn't care about the look Arabella gave him as he continued to say insistently. Arabella's eyes had long been overflowing with tears and she fell to the ground without any reaction. Ezra gave a cold look at Noah, who was lying on the ground, grabbed Arabella's arm and headed outside. Noah, who had somehow gotten up, stared angrily at Ezra and yelled, "Ezra, you know she just got sober and you're doing this to her!" Ezra paused for a moment, wanting to s
When Arabella woke up, all she felt was a splitting headache and the smell of disinfectant in the air. She knew she was now lying in a hospital, having escaped the cage that had trapped her. Arabella blinked and looked at the ceiling, the corners of her mouth pulled out a mocking smile, she had been coming to the hospital so often these days that she was on the verge of becoming a regular visitor to the hospital. "Doctor, she seems to have woken up." "Got it, you go out first." Arabella heard Noah's voice and struggled to get up, but her body didn't have any strength and she could only lie on the bed. Noah dismissed the nurse and walked to the bedside, looking worriedly at Arabella. "Arabella, you're awake, why do you always have to torture yourself like this?" Noah held Arabella's wrist painfully and looked at the already bandaged wrist with a pang of pain in his heart. Arabella saw Noah's haggard face and had some internal remorse, "
"I'll go back with you so I can get the chains off, right?" Her voice sounded less emotional and more heartbreaking. Ezra received a compromising answer from Arabella, but his mind was not relieved, and he still felt a great deal of tightness in his chest, which annoyed him greatly. "Arabella, don't do this, don't go back with him!" Noah's voice was full of detainment as well as pain and self-recrimination. He blames himself for the fact that, instead of helping, he became a bargaining chip for Ezra to threaten Arabella, which devastated him. "Noah, don't blame yourself, I don't have much time left anyway, and I don't want my last time to bring you guys so much trouble." Arabella looked tenderly at Noah, her tone full of comfort. In doing so, she caused Ezra's already suppressed emotions to erupt again, and looked angrily at Arabella. Suddenly, Ezra's cell phone rang, which broke the immediate stiff atmosphere. "What, you said Grandpa
