It was a cruel act from Jarrod’s side against Nicole.


    Jarrod hadn’t seen thising because he believed he had erased that video across the Inte.


    Yet, Nicole still possessed the original.


    A slight smile crossed Jarrod’s face.


    It looked like Nicole was reallymitted to thiswsuit and had done a lot of preparation.


    Roscoe, who was there too, watched and found himself clenching his fist, feeling a sudden wave of anger he couldn’t quite exin.


    Even though the video was blurry, he felt the urge to jump into the scene and start beating Jarrod.


    His own reaction surprised him.


    He wasn’t typically impulsive or quick to anger.


    After the video concluded, Rhett stated, “Your Honor, as depicted in the video, it shows my client and the defendant in an incident of abuse where the defendant forces my client into submission.Property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    While my client initially consented for justifiable reasons, the footage clearly shows unteral harshness, which suggests that this individual is not suitable to be a father.


    Additionally, we have evidence that Mr.


    Schultz has been under treatment for mental health issues.


    ”


    Rhett then introduced a pharmacological report that detailed Jarrod’s medications.


    After reviewing the evidence, the judge scrutinized it and asked Jarrod if he concurred with the intiff’s allegations.


    “I do not agree,” Jarrod quickly rebutted.


    Nicole shivered at his reply, and even Rhett noticed it.


    Rhett swiftly wrote “Rx” on a note and showed it to Nicole.


    Nicole gradually regained herposure and nodded at Rhett.


    Jarrod didn’t defend himself but deferred to his attorney.


    His attorney was also highlypetent.


    “Regarding the video, my client Mr.


    Schultz and the intiff Miss Lawrence were single back then.


    People have their own tastes in rtionships.


    Also, it’s obvious from the video that Miss Lawrence wanted the encounter with my client.


    They were just engaged in role-ying.


    There was no force.


    ”


    Nicole went pale as she listened to these audacious ims, her fingers pressing into her palms.


    This shameless guy actually imed they were just engaged in role-ying.


    Rhett quickly countered, “I disagree with the defense attorney’s interpretation.


    The video clearly involves a third party.


    This isn’t merely a consensual role-y between a couple but obvious coercion.


    ”


    The defense attorney calmly asked, “Could the third party testify that this was an instance of coercion or abuse?”


    Rhett looked troubled.


    He had previously asked Nicole if the third party could testify.


    The person in the video could have been excellent proof.


    Regrettably, Nicole had indicated the third party would not testify.


    The defense attorney continued, “Clearly, the intiff cannot substantiate this.


    Shall we consider that the third party’s involvement was part of a consensual act?”


    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 appearedpletely helpless and pitiful.


    Nicole wanted to nce 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 intiff’s report aren’t the ones my client uses.


    He’s fit and fine, proven by histest medical check-up and the mental evaluation we got from the court.
