The Revenge of the Mute Wife Chapter 32
Amid scandals and rough times for both families, the dreaded day of the trial arrived.It was the moment of truth, and everyone had one thing on their minds: getting revenge on Deborah. They swore that as soon as they saw her in court, they’d make her regret her stupid actions that had caused them so many problems. Isabelle was most upset because her friends were ignoring her, frustrating her to no end. “Son, as soon as you see that mute, don’t hesitate to punish her for what she did,” Isabelle instructed Roger as she got out of the car. The entire family had accompanied Roger to the trial. “You’re not going to do anything,” George scolded as he shut the car door. “Mom, it’s embarrassing to hear you talk like that,” Elliot said, standing beside his father after getting out. “Don’t you dare judge me. Show me some respect,” Isabelle declared angrily. “Then behave yourself, woman. God… it’s true what they say: a woman’s worst enemy is another woman,” George commented, glaring

Roger stared at her, puzzled for a moment, before noticing that Caroline was looking to her left. Her words also caught the attention of everyone else in the room. When they turned to look in the same direction as Caroline, they were surprised to see a beautiful brunette woman with short hair approaching them. Roger felt as though he was in some sort of dream or a prank show because it wasn’t possible that this beautiful woman before him was Deborah, his mute wife. This woman was well-groomed, wearing makeup, and dressed in new clothes: a white long-sleeved blouse and a black pencil skirt that accentuated her slim, well-formed body. As she walked past him, he wondered if Deborah had always been this beautiful. In his memories, she had always worn the same clothes since they got married, which he found disgusting and unattractive. [Hello, Roger.] Deborah stood next to Christian. Roger was now certain it was Deborah. He recognized those same blue eyes and saw her signing at him,

[I want a divorce.] Roger was momentarily relieved that she couldn't speak, thinking that no one would understand her. But then he heard some reporters repeating Deborah’s words, indicating there were translators among them. "Deborah, you ungrateful wretch," Isabelle declared as she marched toward them, fed up with the mute’s complaints. She refused to tolerate anything Deborah did and intended to help her son put her in her place. "Ma’am, step back. Only those involved in the trial should be here," Christian said. "Mind your own business, you insolent man," Isabelle snapped at Christian before turning to her daughter-in-law. "And you, end this charade. Can't you see you're hurting my poor son with your irrational complaints?" "Well, we'll see about that 'poor' part," a deep voice declared, revealing that the judge had arrived. He had a deep frown as he looked at the crowd. Roger grimaced, realizing he could no longer avoid the trial. Still, he had several plans to ensure t

"What…? That's ridic—" "But I'm glad you brought up that point, counselor. Now, I'd like to ask, why do you claim my client has no money if she is Mrs. Peterson?" Christian turned his gaze to Roger. "Tell me, why does the wife of a multi-millionaire CEO not have a single cent in her pocket to hire a lawyer?" Everyone in the courtroom began murmuring, suddenly intrigued by this detail. "Um… well..." John struggled to respond, feeling foolish for not wondering about this himself. "In fact, your statement is quite absurd, counselor," Christian continued. "How can you claim your client is a faithful husband while proudly stating his wife has no money? Did he treat her worse than a slave? Even a domestic worker gets paid for her services of taking care of the house." John and Roger scowled, realizing they were losing ground with this simple argument. "Order," the judge demanded, banging his gavel when the audience's voices began to echo louder. "Counselor," he addressed John, "I

"In that case, we will need to adjourn this trial." ‘Gotcha, you idiot,’ was what Roger thought, smiling maliciously. Thanks to his connections, he found out the name of the trial's translator and bribed him not to show up. This meant that today’s trial would be postponed, forcing Deborah to return to the apartment with him. Roger and John were pleased because, without an interpreter, the trial had to be postponed until further notice, giving them time to prepare their counterattack or seek to nullify the trial altogether. Christian noticed their smiles and deduced that they were behind the interpreter’s absence, but Christian wouldn’t give up so easily. "Without an interpreter, I'm afraid I will have to..." "Your Honor, if I may, my wife can act as Deborah's interpreter," Christian interjected quickly. "Objection," John said, standing up. "That cannot be allowed because she is Deborah’s friend. How can we trust she will be impartial in her interpretations?" [Your Honor, p

“That’s not true. I need Deborah by my side,” Roger declared, standing up. “To have your maid cook and clean for free?” Christian retorted sarcastically. “The evidence of your infidelity is overwhelmingly clear. It’s obvious this started right when your marriage began. You’ve never respected Deborah, so why not separate? It’s clear you neither love nor respect her as a person.” Christian handed the judge a folder containing more evidence of how poorly Deborah had been treated at home. Roger scowled and clenched his fists, wanting nothing more than to punch this meddling fool, but he had to restrain himself. John was also worried about the situation. The video alone was a bombshell against them, and he realized that all the arguments and evidence he had prepared were now useless. Roger had flaunted his affair so openly that everyone in the company knew the mistress was the favorite. She was always at the office, taken on shopping sprees, and showered with all the new jewelry relea

"You can't do that, Your Honor," Roger exclaimed, seething with rage. "Then tell me, why shouldn't I approve the divorce?" the judge demanded. Roger glanced at John, allowing the latter to react and speak, as the humiliation was unbearable. "Apologies, Your Honor..." John stood, trying to appear confident as he approached the judge with a folder in hand. "The dramatic and tragic story painted by the opposing counsel is a fabrication," he declared, locking eyes with Christian before handing him a copy of the documents. "As you’ll see in these statements, my client deposits $19,000 monthly into Mrs. Peterson’s account to cover expenses. If she claims she only used a thousand, it was by her own choice." "Interesting, but I notice the account numbers are different," the judge pointed out. "Which means someone is lying." "It's obvious Mrs. Peterson is trying to play the victim. The account with the $19,000 deposit is with the bank where all the Peterson family accounts are managed

"Mrs. Isabelle Peterson, please proceed to the stand," the judge instructed. Isabelle approached the stand, took the oath, and sat down. "Mrs. Isabelle Peterson, could you tell us how your son has suffered at the hands of—" "Objection," Christian interrupted. "If he loves Deborah, how can she be cruel and abusive towards his mother? Isn’t that contradictory?" "Not at all. She bewitched my son, making him fall hopelessly in love, but in secret, she mistreated and insulted me," Isabelle replied melodramatically. "I’d like to know how some hand movements could insult you to the point of causing such offense," Christian said, glaring at the older woman. "Do not interrupt my questioning," John retorted angrily. "Counsel, wait your turn." "Tch..." [Calm down, Christian.] Deborah signed. "So, Mrs. Isabelle Peterson, can you tell us what you know?" John asked. "Of course, Deborah appears very kind and all that, but she’s actually very cruel and rude. In fact, even her own
