Chapter 103 The Punishment He Deserves
Several doctors were examining my daughter. One of them said something while looking
at the brain CT scan. The others nodded in agreement, and then he carefully examined
Ava again.
Standing outside, I could hardly breathe as I stared at what was happening.
After an hour, the doctor emerged. He said to Atlas, “Mr. Atlas, it appears that there’s no
damage to the
intracranial nerves for now, so she should wake up soon.
“However, due to the concussion, there are multiple areas of soft tissue and subdural
bleeding, and the subdural hematoma is extensive. Anyway, I’ll stay here until she wakes
up to run further tests.”
Matthew kept thanking the doctor that Atlas had engaged for us.
Ava woke up from the coma after 28 hours, to everyone’s relief.
She obediently stared at me through the window while the neurosurgeon examined her. I
smiled and
waved at her as I cried, pressing myself against the window to calm her.
After the tests, Atlas arranged to transfer Ava to a luxurious room where I could stay with
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇther. Ava tried
to cheer me up when we were alone by saying she was born lucky. I was greatly
comforted.
Henry and Melanie didn’t show up at the hospital again because I didn’t want to see them.
Matthew and
his mother brought us food in turns, but I tried to ignore them. I no longer considered
them family.
Even Ava did the same. No matter how hard they tried to get her to talk, she held onto me
and didn’t
allow them to touch her.
Matthew tried to stop me from suing Henry by saying it was a family matter, but I wanted
the old man to
pay for his actions.
Henry had always been prejudiced against Ava simply because she was a girl. As he had
treated her like
dirt, he didn’t deserve our respect, and I would never forgive him.
A week after Ava was released from the hospital, Henry’s case of intentional harm went to
trial. Adrian
presented the court with compelling evidence, including the medical report.
As a result of the extensive media coverage, many netizens and Foswood residents
gathered to show
their support. Ultimately, Henry received a five–year jail sentence for intentional harm. He
didn’t file an
appeal.
After we exited the courthouse, Adrian suggested proceeding with the divorce case now
that I had made
up my mind. Not wanting to have anything to do with that asshole anymore, I took his
advice.
The summons was quickly issued, and my divorce case would go to trial a week later
because he refused
to agree to an amicable divorce..
Only then did Matthew realize I was serious. He anxiously came to the apartment, but I
refused to see
him.
As it was the weekend, I asked Ivanna to look after Ava while I retrieved our belongings.
There were many
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthings I could not bear parting with, and I did not want anyone else to get rid of my things.
Ivanna offered to go with me, but I turned her down. She didn’t insist because she knew I
wanted to bid
the place farewell.
Due to Ava’s incident, I didn’t have time to get the car I had reserved, so Ivanna asked me
to take hers
and not stay there too long.
When I arrived and opened the door, I felt like crying as I looked around at my familiar
surroundings.
It seemed deserted for a long time, and everything remained as it was the day I left,
including the clothes
I couldn’t pack back then. I felt like I had just left the place yesterday, but things were
different now.
There was no turning back for the marriage. I could never accept sharing my husband with
another
woman. 2
As I packed my stuff and was about to leave, I suddenly heard someone unlocking the
door…
