OH PLEASE, MY EX-WIFE

"Judge, please let me ask the defendant a few questions." The lawyer who is hired by those men stands up. It will be better to let the lawyer speak up for them. The judge nods.

"Alice Roberts, now the judge is holding the examination report from a hospital. Do you think the reports are made-up?"

The lawyer who is questioning Alice must be eloquent since he has got long and narrow eyes with his mouth inset.

"I didn't say that. But they know exactly whether the reports are false or not. I am not the one who made the reports. All I know is that they came to my clinic and I prescribed them some medicine based on what they told me."

Alice isn't afraid and it is obviously that those three men have colluded with others so as to frame her. As long as she doesn't admit that, they can't do anything to her.

That is the scheme of Janet and Joanna. But Alice isn't someone who can be defeated that easily.

"You are so straight. But I want to ask that do you have any evidence to prove what you said just now is true and what my clients said is false?"

The lawyer walks backward and puts down his briefcase, then walks forward to Alice and asks her. The smile on his face seems like teasing that Alice is such a fool.

"I don't have any evidence. But what I said is true! There are only two of us. What he said just now is totally different to mine!"

Alice has a bad feeling and she recalls that at that day when those men came to her clinic one after another, there were only two of them in the clinic when she was diagnosing the condition. No one else was there. So now, no matter what she tells to the judge, it is pointless since she doesn't have any evidences to prove she is wrongly accused.

Besides, they have their examination reports in hands. Janet is so tactful.

"Since you don't have any evidences, so my clients can produce evidence to support their allegations. And what you said is false. My clients have their examination reports from the hospital, those are the facts! You did prescribe them the wrong drugs so that my clients get injured. Do you have anything to say?" The lawyer sneers.

It can be seen that he is a very experienced lawyer. When he is talking in the court, there is no flaw. And he doesn't give ant chance to Alice to refute at all.

"But you can't prove that their words are true. What if they want to frame me? They lied to me in my clinic and misled me to prescribe them the wrong medicine. Then they went to the hospital and had a check-up so that they got their examination report." Alice doesn't shrink back but straightens her back and argues with him.

Because she is in hurry, she doesn't have time to hire a lawyer. Obviously, it is a long-planned plot of Janet.

Janet finds them the lawyer earlier and they've prepared the reports in advanced. Or they can't prepare so well in such a short time.

"It's ridiculous. Why do my clients frame you? According to the information I have, they don't know you at all! How can you prove that they are planned to frame you?"

The lawyer is composed when facing Alice's questioning.

"I didn't say they are my enemies. But no one knows whether they are instigated by others or not. Besides, how can I be that bold to harm them in succession if I just want to make money?" Alice was a bit perverse.

"I have no idea. But I can accuse you of slander if you can't prove what you said just now. Please show us the evidence to prove you are innocent. Or, what my clients said is all true!"

He is talking with a defiant look and he seems like saying, "I am well-prepared! You can't convince me easily."

"I don't have evidence, but yours can't prove that I have the motive."

Alice turns around and faces the judge, "Judge, if I do want to murder them for their money, I don't need to do it so late and harm them in succession. And it's unnecessary for me to make a big deal out of it. Please scrutinize the case!"

"What you have said is out of thin air. I don't care whether you have the motive or not, my clients have got the evidences! You can't lie!"

The lawyer is a bit mad and he doesn't expect that the case will be that difficult because Alice refuses to admit her guilt and comes up with lots of excuses.

The judge knocks with the wooden hammer and shouts out loud, "Quiet!"

The lawyer isn't convinced but he can do nothing but step back to his seat and keep silent.

What Alice said is not without reason. The judge thinks over what they have said and sees that both of them are a little excited, he knocks the table with a hammer and announces, "The plaintiff's evidence is conclusive, but the defendant has no evidence. However, the evidence that the plaintiffs have can't prove that the defendant has the motive. So, I decide to adjourn the hearing."

After the judge leaves, Alice walks out of the court among the discussions.

Outside the court, those three men don't even give a look at Alice and even their lawyer looks at her disdainfully.

Alice doesn't want to argue with them then she frowns and leaves.

She can do nothing at all for the case. They have got evidence, but she doesn't. So, it will be so hard for her to win the case.

More importantly, no one was there when she was talking with those men in the clinic. That is a serious problem that she can't prove her words.

Alice stays at home for a few days since she can't find any job. Every afternoon, she has to hide what's happening to her from her son and daughter.

She has been trying so hard to find any evidence for days, but she can't. When Albert and Rebecca are back from school, she has to hide her feeling.

Actually, they've already known that the clinic is closed and what is happening to Alice. So, they begin to investigate it and send the information they get secretly to their dad.

The second lawsuit is coming soon. Alice receives the notice from a lawyer and goes to court again.

There is little progress on either side.

But those men do have some evidence while Alice can't prove herself. Therefore, she loses the case the same as last time.

It is already the second joint trial; if she still fails to prove herself, not only will she have to close the clinic, but also cancel the doctor's license and bear the punishment of law.
