After divorce I am a billionaire novel Chapter 1103

Chapter 1103 Did His Hand Get Injured Too?

Malcolm remained silent, turning her head towards Raymond, the victim of this incident.

Raymond's expression was angry as he decisively refused, "I don't want to see him now. If I do, I might have a stressful reaction! Let him talk directly to my sister's lawyer!"

Malcolm understood and gave a nod to the NIB officer who immediately understood and bowed before closing the door again.

The conversation in the hospital room continued.

Malcolm began analyzing seriously. "In theory, this is considered a family conflict. The usual way of handling such matters is through mediation for both parties to reconcile. If Anthony takes responsibility for medical expenses and compensation while apologizing face-to-face with you and gaining your forgiveness, then this matter can be resolved."

Raymond interrupted him saying, "I won't accept his apology or compensation! What does he think he can do with just some money? My sister is still rich even without his little bit of money! He must take legal responsibility for what he did since he has violent tendencies. He needs to divorce my sister on grounds of marital fault and give her custody of my nephew!"

Although Raymond was clear in his argumentation, his expression was explosive despite only having one arm that could move. He seemed very agitated.

Mavis couldn't help but twitch her mouth at her silly brother's words. Perhaps he didn't understand how wealthy and influential the Callahan family really was in Crana. Her few dollars would probably only count as small change!

From a legal perspective, Malcolm explained further, "If you don't accept reconciliation, then we will have no choice but follow due process. Since you were the first one who attacked him, even though you were more severely injured than him, legally speaking it would be considered excessive self-defense resulting in injury. It could lead him to imprisonment based on your injury assessment report. However, if we look at it from another angle, you initiated violence, which means that you are suspected of causing trouble, so if there is no reconciliation, then according to law, they will detain you."

Raymond froze up, not saying anything after hearing Malcolm's explanation. Not only did he get beaten up badly enough that an arm broke, but now also faced detention?

He felt like crying without tears looking towards Mavis, "Mavis... I'm so miserable... if we don't reconcile, I'll suffer injuries and go into jail. I'm just being taken advantage by Anthony's friend from NIB, right?"

At first, Mavis felt sorry for her brother when she heard what happened, but when she heard what Raymond said later, she couldn't help twitching her mouth again.

"Don't say nonsense! Mr. White just told us about reality. It really was your fault initially. You should learn how restrain yourself instead always acting impulsively like this!"

She poked his forehead angrily, wishing he could be more diligent.

"I really suffered a big loss!" He wore a miserable expression on his face. "Next time, I know better. Even if I'm angry, I shouldn't resort to violence first. I can see that guy is also impulsive. I'll make sure to provoke him properly next time and let him make the first move!"

Mavis chuckled in exasperation, "Are you addicted to getting beaten up? Are you not afraid of getting crippled?"

Raymond's face changed and he quickly shook his head in fear.

He was straightforward and spoke his mind. Lyra followed him and was amused; she quite liked his personality.

Malcolm also said, "Your sister is right. Anthony has a strong sense of territory and possessiveness, and he is paranoid. He is skilled and intelligent, and if he really wants to deal with you, there are many ways he can do it without getting his hands dirty. Provoking him would be more trouble than it's worth."

Raymond said, "This person is too scary, then my sister should definitely divorce him! As friends of my sister, can you give her some advice?"

Lyra and Malcolm remained silent together.

Marriage issues can only be decided by the two people who were at the center of the relationship. Others should not interfere too much.

But Lyra still said, "If Mavis needs any help, just let me know."

Mavis nodded and said, "Don't worry. I now know more than ever what I really want."

She looked up at Malcolm again and asked, "Can I choose to settle this matter, or do you think using it as evidence for my application for a forced divorce and custody of Alistair would have a higher chance of success?"

Malcolm said, "Hitting him is a fact, and a broken arm is also a fact. It can be used as evidence for divorce. If you insist, there is a high probability of getting divorced, but the issue of custody is uncertain."
