Chapter 128 — Laura’s POV

After listening to both sides, the judge adjusted her glasses and looked down at the files in front of her. The courtroom had grown quieter compared to earlier. The tension was still there, but it had shifted. It was no longer loud. It was heavy.

She finally spoke.

The court would be adjourned.

Some of the evidence presented by Kayla’s lawyer needed proper verification. Until then, no final decision would be made.

I nodded slightly. That was fair. In fact, I expected i

  • I Didn’t Mean to Divorce You    Chapter 132

    Chapter 132 — Michael’s POVWhen Laura stood in front of me outside the station and calmly questioned how an animal could kill my worker inside a city office, I felt something close to fear crawling up my spine.I felt the fear of what she might discover.The way she analyzed the situation, the way her eyes sharpened when she sensed something impossible, made my chest tighten. When she said she would conduct her own investigation, I honestly felt like the ground should open and swallow me whole.Because if Laura investigated deeply enough, she wouldn’t just uncover inconsistencies.She would uncover the truth. And the truth was something the human world was never meant to see.I watched her drive away after we parted ways.I stood there for a few seconds longer before getting into my car.My hands were cold on the steering wheel.The wounds on my employee’s body were not fabricated. They were real. Real claw marks. Real tearing. Real damage that no ordinary animal in the city could ha

  • I Didn’t Mean to Divorce You    Chapter 131

    Chapter 131 — Laura’s POVBy the time I arrived at the station, my mind was already working ahead of me. I had gone through the possible angles during the drive. A masked lawyer with a personal grudge. A murder investigation hanging over Michael’s head. None of it felt isolated anymore.Everything felt connected.I stepped out of my car and walked straight into the station beside Michael. The officers at the front desk recognized me immediately. A few of them straightened in their seats. One even stood up properly.“Good afternoon, ma’am.”I gave a brief nod. “Good afternoon.”There was a subtle shift in the atmosphere which is respect. Not because I demanded it, but because I had earned it over the years. I didn’t waste time on the pleasantries.“I’m here as Mr. Michael’s legal representative,” I said clearly. “I need a full update on the current status of the investigation.”They exchanged brief looks before leading us toward the office of the officer in charge. The same one who had

    Chapter 130 — The Masked Woman’s POVI stormed out of the courtroom, my mask tight against my face, but it didn’t hide the fury boiling inside me. Every step I took felt heavy with frustration, as if the floor beneath me were conspiring against me. When I reached my office, I slammed the door shut, and everything on my desk, the files, the papers, even the cup of coffee were scattered across the floor. My hands trembled, not from fear, but from rage.My partner stepped back, eyes wide, and cautiously approached me. “Take a breath,” he said softly, trying to calm me.I wasn’t having it. Calm? How could I calm down after being humiliated in a courtroom I had meticulously planned every detail for? I clenched my fists on the edge of the desk, gritting my teeth so hard I thought they might crack. “No,” I snapped. “No calm. I don’t want calm. I want… I want justice. I want revenge!”I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself, but the anger wouldn’t settle. I felt like a storm trapped in a

  • I Didn’t Mean to Divorce You    Chapter 129

    Chapter 129 — Michael’s POVI still didn’t understand why Laura agreed to follow me.After everything that happened between us in the past, after the mistakes I made, I didn’t expect her to stand beside me like that. Especially not in something as messy as a murder investigation. She was already carrying the weight of the divorce case. That alone was exhausting.Yet she didn’t hesitate.As I drove toward the station, I kept checking my rearview mirror. Her car followed closely behind mine. I sighed.Part of me felt relieved. The other part felt guilty.What happened in court earlier kept replaying in my head. The masked woman’s confidence. The fake evidence. The way she spoke as if she had already decided my fate. Even Kayla looked shocked at some of the documents presented. She tried to hide it, but I saw it clearly.That woman wasn’t just trying to help Kayla win a divorce case.She wanted to destroy me and I was sure of it now.Because she was the reason I got to court late in the

That was fair. In fact, I expected it. The so-called evidence her lawyer brought forward had too many gaps. The dates did not align. The signatures looked questionable. The financial statements lacked official stamps. If the court verified everything thoroughly, most of it would collapse on its own.Still, I did not relax.Adjournment meant time. And time could be used wisely or dangerously.Kayla’s lawyer gathered her documents slowly. Even under the mask, I could feel her stare. It was intense and personal not just professional

  • I Didn’t Mean to Divorce You    Chapter 127

    Chapter 127 — Laura’s POVThe courtroom felt hot, not because of the weather but because of the tension. Every word spoken carried weight. Every sentence felt like a weapon. It was no longer just a divorce hearing. It had turned into a battlefield.Kayla’s lawyer stood up again, her voice sharp and dramatic. She kept waving documents in the air as if that alone would make them believable. The way she spoke irritated me. She lacked structure. She lacked professionalism. Yet she was cunning. She twisted her words carefully, playing with emotions instead of facts.If I had not handled cases like this for years, I might have fallen for it.She tried to paint Michael as unstable. As irresponsible. As a man who wanted to escape accountability. She exaggerated minor issues and tried to make them look severe. She leaned heavily on tone rather than substance.I listened quietly, taking notes of all her accusations.When it was my turn, I stood and addressed each claim calmly. I did not raise m
