Chapter 110
I didn’t even bother hiring a lawyer. Instead, I calmly laid out a stack of documents and receipts, my face unreadable.
During our marriage, I covered the cost of her mother’s medical treatment, household expenses, travel, and more- totaling 3.2 million.
Sabrina’s education, private dance training, competitions, overseas studies, designer clothes, and beauty treatments? 5.68 million.
Her salary? Thirteen thousand a month. Yet not a cent of it went toward the family. Only she knew where it all disappeared.
year.
Including the house I bought for her mother, I had spent over 10 million dollars in the past decade–nearly a million a
No wonder the furniture factory had barely broken even for more than ten years. I had been blindly financing Sabrina’s extravagant life without realizing it.”
I presented records proving that both the factory and my old home were inherited from my father–premarital assets that had nothing to do with Sabrina.
So if we were to settle based on marital assets? She owed me five million dollars.\
The judge carefully examined the documents and financial records before suggesting mediation.
Sabrina turned to me, tears brimming in her eyes.\
“Zach… I really know I was wrong. Can’t you help me one last time?“!
She sobbed, her voice trembling.
“I’ll do anything… I can be your servant for life if that’s what it takes.“”
I stared at her coldly.”
No wonder they say that behind every pitiful person, there’s a reason to despise them.
I had pulled her out of that grim, desperate life, yet she had willingly thrown herself back into the mud.
At first, I loved her for her determination, her resilience. I never realized that the influence of her broken upbringing ran so deep–so deep it had become part of her very soul.”
Selfish. Unable to distinguish right from wrong. Greedy, ignorant, and narrow–minded. No principles. No bottom line.” Mickey scoffed and stepped forward, standing beside her.
“Giving money to parents is called filial piety,” he declared. “Spending money on your wife? That’s a husband’s duty! Why the hell should he take it back?“”
He sneered and turned to the judge.”
“Sabrina gave him ten years of her youth. That alone deserves compensation! Think about it–those high–end hostesses out there make at least 200,000 to 300,000 a year. Counting just 3 million for ten years is nothing!”
A murmur rippled through the courtroom. The presiding judge’s face darkened, and the audience whispered among themselves, casting looks of disgust at Mickey.”
But Mickey, utterly oblivious, smirked triumphantly.”
Then, as if that weren’t enough, he sneered, “Besides, Zach can’t even have kids. It was me who gave Sabrina a child. That means my son is entitled to inherit his assets, too!“\
The courtroom fell silent.
The judge. The clerk. The entire audience.\
They stared at him, eyes wide in shock.”
I had seen shameless people before, but this–this was something else entirely.
Mickey had the audacity to wear his filth like it was a badge of honor, parading it proudly for all to see.”
Sabrina’s face burned red with humiliation. Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at me, silently pleading.”
I checked the time. It was perfect.
Clearing my throat, I spoke loudly and clearly.”
“Your Honor, I am filing a fraud case against Mickey for scamming Ms. Sabrina, using children as leverage to extort four million dollars from her.“&
The air in the room froze.
All eyes were on me.
Then, with deliberate precision, I placed the paternity test reports on the judge’s desk.}
“These triplets Mickey keeps talking about?” I said, pausing for effect.”
12:05 PM N
“They are not Sabrina’s children.“}
A collective gasp filled the room.
“They are the biological children of Mickey and Faith Knox–a hostess he has been involved with for years.“”
The courtroom was dead silent.
I took a step forward.”
D
“The DNA results prove it. The triplets have zero genetic relation to Ms. Sabrina, but they have a direct parent–child match with Mickey and Faith Knox.”
Whispers erupted. Shocked gasps. A few people even turned to look at Mickey in sheer disbelief.
I continued, my voice unwavering.”
“This wasn’t an accident. This was deliberate.“\
Mickey had never been able to marry properly. He had spent years frequenting nightclubs and hostess bars.”
Eventually, he met Faith Knox–a woman who worked in those places, someone who knew how to play the game.”
When Faith Knox found out he had a child bride–one who had grown up to be a professional dancer, married into wealth -she saw an opportunity.
She and Mickey plotted together.”
First, Mickey manipulated Sabrina, pressuring her to have a baby, making her believe it was for love.
Then, behind her back, Mickey and Faith Knox arranged for IVF treatments in a secret underground clinic.
And when were triplets born?”
They passed them off as Sabrina’s children–so they could use them to demand money.”
