Chapter 11 - The Courtroom Showdown

Three days later, Room 402 of the County Family Courthouse was packed to capacity.
Vincent sat at the defense table in a rumpled suit, looking haggard, dark circles weighing heavily under his eyes. His court-appointed public attorney looked overwhelmed, shuffling through thin manila folders.
Across the aisle sat Sabrina.
She looked stunning. She wore a tailored cream coat over a dark navy dress, her dark hair pinned back elegantly. Beside her sat her sister Clara and a team of top financial litigators. Sabrina was calm, poised, and utterly serene.
Judge Harrison, a veteran magistrate known for her zero-tolerance policy toward spousal misconduct, presided over the bench.
"Your Honor," Sabrina’s attorney stood up, placing a thick leather-bound binder on the judge’s desk. "We present Exhibit A through F: bank records, hotel security footage, and emergency hospital logs proving that Mr. Vance engaged in systematic fraud and extreme spousal abandonment while Mrs. Vance was undergoing life-saving surgery."
