Revenge On Her Ex After Rebirth novel Chapter 1193

Chapter 1193 Three-Year Sentence

Three days later, Little Bunny went back to filming. Theodore's trial was scheduled for a month later. Little Bunny didn't show up in court. Oscar, Susan and Manuel had arrived in the Capital early, along with Hannah. They all sat in the audience seats, tucked away in a corner and keeping quiet.

In court, Theodore wore prison clothes and had short hair. Susan couldn't help feeling sorry for him as she looked at his appearance.

"How could Theodore be so foolish?" she whispered to Manuel. "He knew what he was doing was illegal."

Manuel didn't comment on it. He found it hard to judge since Theodore tended to act impulsively and straightforwardly when trying to do something good for someone else, even if it meant risking his own life or breaking the law.

"What about Little Bunny?" Susan asked after looking around.

The other day when Little Bunny called her on the phone, Susan could hear that she was sobbing uncontrollably on the other end of the line. Now that it was such an important day for Theodore's trial, she wasn't there.

"I'll call her," said Susan as she reached for her phone. But Manuel grabbed her hand before she could dial any numbers.

"Don't call her." He said firmly. "There must be a reason why she isn't here."

"What reason?"

"Theodore doesn't want her here."

"How can that be? Theodore loves her so much. How could he not want to see her?"

"Have you forgotten what Theodore told you before? He doesn't want Little Bunny to feel guilty or obligated towards him anymore. Instead, he wants to give her freedom, if that's what she wants, she shouldn't show up here today, or she would give Theodore hope again. If she doesn't want to leave him, she shouldn't show up either, cause that would only make Theodore more distressful by thinking that Little Bunny was still guilty about what happened between them. So the best result is her absence. Now Theodore would believe she has released everything that weighs her down and started living her own life." Explained Manuel.

"So, does she forget Theodore or not?" Susan was still puzzled by the situation.

"I think, the second one is more likely. Maybe she's reassuring Theodore in her way. So she'll live the life Theodore wishes her to do. But, that's merely my speculation. We can only know the truth when Theodore is released. What twists and turns it will take a few years later, I can't say."

Susan frowned slightly at this analysis from Manuel, who sometimes seemed too smart for his good. He could talk in circles without saying anything concrete at all.

But she didn't try to call Little Bunny again.

The trial had started at this moment while the courtroom was silent. Theodore admitted to abusing his power and had a very proper attitude about it. He was sentenced to three years in prison in the first trial. Theodore immediately stated that he would not appeal and accepted the verdict.

Therefore, news of Theodore's three-year sentence for abuse of private rights quickly spread. And soon it was officially confirmed by the authorities.

Little Bunny read the news on her phone. She knew Theodore had gone to court today, but she was overseas filming and couldn't go back. She decided not to go back since she didn't want Theodore to think she hadn't moved on. Theodore didn't want her carrying guilt either, and she didn't want him worrying about her all the time. This was probably what mutual support means. Even though they were living apart now.

Theodore was taken to prison, and everyone else left the courtroom too. Oscar's group naturally took a special route out. Susan dragged Hannah along with Manuel, walking with Oscar as well.

As they walked, Susan sighed, "With Theodore gone, I feel like something is missing around me, it feels empty."

Everyone felt this way. Theodore was an active person who livened up any atmosphere most of the time. Without him around, Susan felt like there wasn't anyone contradicting her anymore, which made her uncomfortable.

"Speaking of which," Susan looked at Oscar, "you should be feeling worse than anyone else right now."

"Do you feel like your left or right hand has been cut off?"
