GoodNovelChapter 36 Chapter 36 Real Family After finalizing the details of the divorce Lawsuit with Amy, I didn't return to the office. Instead, I went back to the small apartment where my mom used to live.
Emma had already arranged for it to be cleaned. The apartment was simply furnished, just as it had been before my mom left.

The thought of enduring such pain myself made it hard to breathe, to quickly left the apartment. That evening, while Emma was working late, I made spasta and went to bed early just as I was falling asleep, Leonard called. I rejected the call quickly, but he senta video on WhatThe video showed Leonard in a drunken state, and Sam's voice sounded. "Eva, you need to cpick him up. He's really losing it." Then, Leonard grabbed the phone and hugged Sam Leonard used to drink very little during our school years, and I thought that it was because he didn't like drinking. Later, I found out that it was because he would lose control when he was drunk Sam sentthe address, and I forwarded it to Lily since Leonard didn't want to see me. After all, he only had eyes for his lower.
I managed to get smore sleep, but an hour later, Sam calledfrantically Eventually, he sent a Whatmessage with a tearful tone. "Eva, you need to cquicly. Lea's been fighting We're at the police station' I was instantly wide awake.
Leonard was fighting? They were at the police station? Icould barely process the words I quickly got dressed and called Sam. The call connected immediately, and he shouted from the other end, "oficer, his wife is on the way! She's almost here! "Eva, please hurry. Leonard is really you need to hurry!" Lcould bear the chaos at the police station, with Leonard's and Lily's voices in the background. There was also another familiar voice, but I couldn't place it When I arrived at the police station, I was stunned.
Leonard had a black eye and cuts on his arm. His hair was disheveled, and there were stains all over his clothes. He seemed chilivious to my arrival, and he kept his head down Lily was crying as she tried to pull him away while he sat silently. To my shock, sitting across fro thadn't seen him since I moved abroad, and I couldn't believe that he was the one who had fought with Lea "Zack?' 1 asked, turning slightly to look at him.
Zack gavea gentle smile and said, "Long tno ser, Eva." Zack's collar was torn, and aside from missing a couple of buttons, he was unhurt, though his hands were a bit swollen.
Hearing my voice, Leonard finally looked up. His words slurred as he asked, "You can see him, but you can't see me? Look at what your dear senior did toI'm going to sue him. Eswear I will He started to get up, but Lily quickly pulled him back. The officer glanced at him, and his tone was stern. "You're the one who provoked him, and you Alright. Anyway, your real family is here now. Let's sort this eur" He added, "This is a police station. No matter who you are, you need to believe yourself" The officer gavea meaningful look before turning to Lily. I sighed, realizing that everyone probably knew about Leonard's situation by now Zack looked disdainfully at Leo and Lily, "You're married and still out messing around with other women? How dare you make your wife clean up after you?" He added, "You're publicly demeaning Eva. She must be blind to have married you in the first place!! His woce was as gentle as ever, but there was a cold edge to Something in his words seemed to have struck a nerve in Leo, as he jumped up angrily. "That's a private matter between us. It's none of your business!" Seeing him about to lunge again, Sam and I quickly held him back, while Lily clung to him.

Tremembered that Leo was quite strong, Zack had always been so mild-mannered, Thad never seen him angry, let alone fight.
Zack shook his head and scoffed.
"People who live recklessly and up so worn out that they can't even put up a fight." His comment was blent, and 1 couldn't help but blush, Lily tried to get up, but I pressed her back down.
"Who do you think you are?" asked. "Be quiet." Lily glared at me, but ignored her and looked at Leonard "How do you want to handle this?" asked "Do you want to be detained or just pay for damages? Les looked atin disbelled "Pay for damages? Inodded seriously and pointed at Zack's swollen hand. "Zack got injured because you"
"Ex, you're my wife! Are you siding with him? Len yelled: Despite Ris ve injuries, His face still sisted in anger. sighed softly and said, "I won't be your wife for much longer."
