Sunlight streamed in through the window, casting dappled shadows on the ground.
When Lu Anyu saw Shen Jinmo again, it was as if a heavy psychological shadow had been cast over him.
Terrified, she burrowed into Lu Zhiwei's arms, crying, "Mommy, I don't want to see him, I don't want to."
Lu Anyu's dismissive attitude burned Shen Jingmo's heart, and she secretly withdrew her hand that she wanted to reach out and hug Lu Anyu.
Shen Jinmo gazed at Lu Anyu and gently told him, "An'an, don't be afraid, I won't take you away from your mommy."
"You're lying! You've already sued my mommy! You big liar, you big liar!" Lu Anyu sobbed, her eyes red as she yelled at Shen Jingmo.
He was as heartbroken as he had been for his father before.
Because the father he once idolized is now trying to take him away and hurt his most beloved mother.
"An'an, Mommy told you that you are a man, crying won't solve anything." Lu Zhiwei picked up Lu An'yu and wiped away the tears rolling down his face.
Then they bypassed Shen Jinmo, who was blocking their way, and left directly.
Shen Jinmo watched their retreating figures, turning his face away in heartache, as if a dull knife was repeatedly grinding against his heart.
The 30-minute recess has ended.
The relevant personnel returned to the courtroom one after another.
The judge asked both parties if they wanted to add any further explanation that would be favorable to their side.
Jiang Jingyu chose not to add anything further.
Lu Zhiwei was about to speak.
His lawyer stood up first: "We have just hired a doctor who is willing to appear in court. He needs to help us with some additional information."
"Okay, please come up." The judge granted the lawyer's request.
Lu Zhiwei, puzzled, asked the lawyer in a low voice, "Where did you hire this person?"
"Mr. Shen introduced me to him during the court recess, saying he would be of help to you."
The doctor who appeared in court came to the courtroom with a medical report in his hand.
"Your Honor, I am Mr. Shen's personal physician. Since he became a vegetable, I have been in charge of all his related examinations and rehabilitation treatments."
I would like to add that Mr. Shen suffered serious aftereffects from his previous car accident, and his physical indicators are much worse than before.
A few days ago, Mr. Shen went to the hospital alone and underwent a bone marrow extraction procedure.
This surgery will directly cause Mr. Shen's immunity to drop sharply, and the lack of hematopoietic stem cells will affect the brain's blood supply and cause nervous system failure..."
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhiwei's breath caught in her throat, her heart churning with a complex mix of emotions.
Jiang Jingyu, who had been confident of victory, suddenly felt her pupils shrink upon hearing the doctor's words, and immediately sensed something was wrong.
But she couldn't speak up to stop the doctor from continuing.
"Judging from the final results of the various test reports, Mr. Shen will not live for more than two years."
The doctor's words struck Lu Zhiwei's heart like a prematurely tolled death knell.
The shock left her with no senses, and her mind was constantly buzzing.
Her sharp, watery eyes turned toward the first row where Shen Jinmo was sitting.
He seemed afraid to meet Lu Zhiwei's gaze, slowly rose from his seat, and left dejectedly.
The news that Shen Jinmo was nearing his end was truly a bombshell.
They crushed Jiang Jingyu's trump card.
Shen Jinmo is dying.
Whether he had a tubal ligation or not is no longer relevant.
Fighting for child custody is even more pointless.
He personally presented the evidence of his impending death to the court, giving Lu Zhiwei her last bit of confidence.
This helped her win the custody battle.
Standing in the courtyard, Lu Zhiwei seemed to have had her soul ripped out.
I did not hear how the judge announced the verdict.
All I know is that the people in the audience are cheering for her.
But she couldn't feel happy at all.
Shen Jiarui sat motionless in the audience, his handsome face drained of color, no longer possessing its former vibrancy.
From childhood to adulthood, he had always deeply admired this older brother.
When Shen Jinmo became a vegetable, he never thought he would lose him one day.
But today's result...
The news came so suddenly that it caught everyone completely off guard.
Luo Wuyan was initially happy that Lu Zhiwei had regained custody of her.
Seeing Shen Jiarui looking lost and dejected, she could only suppress her joy and reach out to hug him.
Shen Jiarui leaned on her shoulder like a child, crying his heart out.
"Wu Yan, I'm going to lose my brother. Tell me, this isn't real, this isn't real."
Luo Wuyan reached out and gently patted his back, her almond-shaped eyes full of tenderness. "I also want to tell you that this is not true, but the evidence that can be taken to court cannot be faked."
The court can dispel all lies.
With his eyes bloodshot from tears, Shen Jiarui wiped them away and released Luo Wuyan: "I'm going to find my brother. With medicine so advanced these days, there's no way we can't find a way to save him."
As the court hearing ended, people continued to leave the courthouse.
Lu Zhiwei, holding Lu Anyu's hand, walked down the stairs with Jiang Zhan to get the car.
Jiang Jingyu, who had been waiting there, suddenly rushed out and grabbed Lu Zhiwei by the collar: "You vixen, you jinx! It's all your fault, all your fault! My son is so unlucky to have you!"
"Old woman, let go of my sister!" Jiang Zhan reached out to pull Jiang Jingyu away.
Lu Anyu also joined Jiang Zhan in tugging at Jiang Jingyu's clothes, saying, "Don't touch my mommy, let go, let go."
Chaos erupted outside the courthouse.
"Mom, what's gotten into you again?"
Sitting in the car, Shen Jinmo saw this scene at the courthouse entrance and immediately opened the car door, got out, and pulled Jiang Jingyu back from Lu Zhiwei's side.
Having lost the lawsuit and about to lose her son, Jiang Jingyu's hair was disheveled, and she looked several years older.
"Shen Jinmo! You are truly the most failed son I, Jiang Jingyu, have ever given birth to. I fought for your son, yet you have been betraying me all along. You promised to sue Lu Zhiwei, but then you turned around and gave her all the evidence."
Jiang Jingyu turned around and, with both hands like iron hammers, furiously pounded on Shen Jinmo's chest.
The force of the blow forced the extremely weakened Shen Jinmo to take a step back.
Seeing Shen Jinmo like this, Lu Zhiwei couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.
“If you hadn’t fought for custody, I wouldn’t have had to do this,” Shen Jinmo roared.
He also wanted to find a place to hide away after donating bone marrow to Lu Anyu and live out the rest of his life in peace.
No one knew he was dead.
How wonderful it was that he disappeared from everyone's sight so quietly.
Lu Zhiwei doesn't need to feel guilty about this.
They, mother and son, can live out their lives peacefully.
However, if he hadn't made prior arrangements and gone to the hospital for bone marrow removal surgery to prevent things from changing.
Lu Zhiwei is likely to lose the lawsuit.
"Now you're blaming me? The son isn't yours, and she refuses to remarry you. I fought for him for you. What right do you have to blame me?"
Jiang Jingyu's eyes were bloodshot as she pointed at Shen Jinmo and roared angrily.
