“I don’t want the house he took her to while I was at scans. I don’t want the money he spent on her. I don’t want the cars or the furniture or anything with a lie attached to it.”

Garrick stood up. “She’s being emotional, Your Honour. She’s trying to make me look like a monster.”
“Sit down, Mr. Reyne.”
He sat. His face did not.
And I said, “You’ve already taken the only thing that mattered,” which I had not planned and which I am not proud of, because it was for the room.

“Before I make any order, there’s a matter this court needs to deal with.”
