After suing Ivy, Ran shamelessly approached me again and begged me to withdraw the lawsuit.

"Sophia, Ivy was just confused for a moment, can you please not take it personally?" he begged.

I was so angry that I laughed: "She was confused for a moment? Then let her go to jail to sober up."

"Sophia, how can Ivy, a girl, endure the suffering in there? Can I kneel down for you?" As he said that, Ran knelt down with a plop.

Looking at his embarrassed look, I felt a sense of satisfaction flashing through my heart. "Don't even mention you kneeling down to me, even if Ivy came to kneel down to me personally, it would be useless, get out of here."

After Ran left unwillingly, my lawyer also came to the hospital. He analyzed the case for me. In general, Ivy will not escape the punishment of the law this time.

The next time I saw Ivy was in court. She looked at me with a proud look on her face and said, "Ran has hired the most prestigious lawyer in Jiangcheng for me. Just wait for your defeat."

I smiled without saying anything and looked at my lawyer. He replied expressionlessly: "Don't worry." I nodded happily, feeling safe instantly.

When Ivy heard the name of my lawyer in court, she stopped laughing instantly. The lawyer I hired this time is Joel , a leader in the legal profession, and he has never lost a case. It is difficult for ordinary people to hire him, but I can hire him at any time, just because he is the son of my mother's best friend, and he has treated me as his own sister since he was a child.

As expected, Ivy was sentenced to three years in prison for intentional injury and was ordered to compensate me for all the medical expenses during my hospitalization. After hearing the verdict, Ivy collapsed in despair.

In the following days, after I recovered from my injuries, I prepared to sue Ran for divorce. He knew that he would have no chance of winning in court, so he finally agreed to divorce me.

The day I got the divorce agreement, the heavy stone in my heart finally fell, and I felt a lot more relaxed. This time I want to live for myself. My youth wasted on Ran , and from now on I will only live for myself.

To thank Joel for his help, I invited him to dinner. I thought he would not agree due to his busy work, but he came anyway. I was surprised because he is a well-known workaholic. I rarely see him since he started working, and every time I asked him out, he refused because he was busy with work.

I am still the same as before. I have endless things to say to him whenever I see him. He listened silently and picked up some food for me from time to time. After the dinner, he said he wanted to go home too, so he gave me a ride. His family and mine are neighbors. In order not to be separated from her best friend, my mother bought the house together.

When we got off the bus, I invited him to my house. My parents hadn't seen him for a long time and often talked about him in my ears. "Okay." He agreed without thinking.

Just as I was about to leave, a voice called me, "Sophia." I turned around and saw that it was Ran. He walked towards me listlessly, "Sophia, give me a chance, okay? This time it's my turn to pursue you. I promise I will never look for Ivy again. I will cut off all ties with her." He hung his head, not daring to look at me. He no longer had the confidence he had before. His confidence came from my repeated indulgence and tolerance, thinking that I would never leave him.
