My Mute Bride

My Mute Bride Chapter 341

Chapter 341 She Has Lost a Baby Before

Charlotte’s arrival marked a turning point in the court hearing. After all, civil cases like child custody battles were the hardest to adjudicate on. There were no black-and-white rules on this, but it was almost common practice that the child’s wishes would have a huge impact on the court’s verdict.

Justin frowned at once. “Miss Carter, who let you bring my daughter here? Frankie, take Charlotte out of here now!”

Hernandez stood up at once. “Your Honor.”

The judge banged the gavel in his hand. “Silence!”

The scene went silent at once.

Hernandez accused sharply, “How could a kid grow up under the control of such a domineering father?”

Justin looked as black as thunder as he struggled to suppress his displeasure. “Rachel, why do you have to have Charlotte brought here?”

Instead of answering him, Rachel continued to make her case. “Your Honor, there’s one other thing that I need to make clear. I gave birth to Charlotte while I was divorced and technically single. The time of her birth and the time of my divorce could be verified, so her custody should’ve been mine in the first place.”

All at once, a discussion broke out among the jury.

Justin wanted to say something, but his attorney stopped him, saying, “Your Honor, I’d like to ask for a recess.” After all, Charlotte’s sudden presence had made the situation somewhat complicated.

The judge nodded slightly. “The court will recess for 15 minutes.”

Justin stopped Rachel as soon as they left the courtroom. “Come with me. I’d like to have a word with you!”

“Justin.” Hernandez tried to stop him.
