Nicole's face went pale. This question had to be Jarrod's idea. He was confident Roscoe wouldn't testify because Roscoe remembered nothing. How could he?

Nicole's face looked miserable. From Roscoe's perspective, she appeared completely helpless and pitiful.

Nicole wanted to glance up at the gallery several times but held herself back. Roscoe was no help. He remembered nothing.

The defense attorney added, "Furthermore, the drugs mentioned in the plaintiff's report aren't the ones my client uses. He's fit and fine, proven by his latest medical check-up and the mental evaluation we got from the court."

The defense attorney carefully read each word of the report, saying, “This report conclusively shows that my client has no mental disorders."

Nicole's face turned utterly pale. Jarrod had even anticipated her move, having applied for a court evaluation beforehand. This meant he knew she had accessed his psychiatric medications, intending to use them against him. All her meticulous preparations... Jarrod had anticipated them all!

Nicole felt like she was suffocating.

Rhett was confused. Wasn't it confirmed that Jarrod had a mental illness? How come suddenly he did not?

The credibility of a judicial evaluation was high.

Moreover, the fact that the defendant had requested it in advance indicated the knowledge of their cards.

The defense attorney kept pressing, "Clearly, all of this is merely the plaintiff's speculation. The plaintiff has a history of several years of medical consultations, which indicates that the plaintiff's physical and psychological conditions are unstable."

Jarrod's lawyer brought Nicole's recent medical records from international and local consultations.

By comparison, Nicole appeared to be the one with a mental disorder.

The proceedings moved swiftly. Clearly, Nicole was utterly defeated.

Even Jarrod, by simply stating his disagreement, had easily bested her.

"It's not like that..." Nicole struggled to speak. “It's not like that. That man is a monster, a lunatic! He forced me to have the child, and now he wants to drag me back to continue a shameful relationship. He is ill. Trust me, he really is!"

Nicole became increasingly distraught toward the end.

Rhett had to intervene.

The court valued evidence highly, and such emotional outbursts only made the judge perceive Nicole as a psychologically unstable one.

“Plaintiff, please remain calm and respect the decorum of the court," the judge instructed.
