My Husband's Family Puts Me on the Marriage Tribunal1
On our tenth wedding anniversary, my husband and his family dragged me to the Marriage Tribunal.
When Jake Morris accused me of the various abuses he'd endured over the past ten years, everyone in the courtroom was shocked.
Outraged, they attacked my character, eager to see me brought down.
But when the verdict was announced, the entire room fell silent.
On the day that should have marked a decade of marriage, I didn't receive flowers or embraces.
Instead, Jake brought me to court, demanding a thorough investigation of my financial situation.
He even claimed I should repay every penny he'd ever spent on me during our marriage.
I was blindsided and dragged to the courtroom without warning.
As I stood there, facing the accusations, I turned to Jake.
He had even brought his relatives, who were more than willing to vouch for my supposed cruelty.
"You'll die a terrible death for what you've done to Jake, Elena Mann."
"You heartless woman. You even abandoned your own son. He's only eight years old, for God's sake."
Before the judge could say a word, Jake and his family had already launched their attack.
