Chapter 14
Crystal really wanted to ask Jerome, who was the cruel one, her or him?
Who betrayed their own vows and openly cheated in front of her eyes after they got married?
Who turned a cold shoulder and didn’t even look at her when she was at her most vulnerable, in need of help and support?
Who was it again, giving orders from a high position, disregarding her well–being, and making the nurse ruthlessly draw her blood?
“Jerome, you didn’t deserve my forgiveness!” Crystal said coldly, and then promptly called the police.
The French law is very comprehensive, even in the case of marital relationships. If a husband violates the wife’s will and poses a threat to her safety, once the wife reports to the police, they will immediately respond and detain the husband.
And now, Crystal has already divorced Jerome, and they are legally completely separate individuals.
So the police immediately went out and detained Jerome.
“Let go of me! Let go of me!” Jerome had just arrived overseas and had not yet adapted to the foreign laws. He was still using the same tactics he used back home to deal with the police: “She is my wife! We are a family!”

How did you become police officers? You meddle in other people’s private matters! Believe it or not, I will file a complaint against you!
Unfortunately, the police officers were too lazy to bother with Jerome and simply arrested him and locked him up in the police station.
Finally, Jerome’s subordinates spent a large sum of money and managed to bail Jerome out.
After being released on bail, Jerome still didn’t give up. He had just gotten out of prison and was determined to continue searching for Crystal.
“Mr. Benson, listen to me, you must not go to see Mrs. Benson. anymore.”
Jerome was quickly stopped by his subordinates, who then earnestly persuaded him, “The laws in France are very strict. Mrs. Benson has already reported once, and if she reports again, the police will forcefully put an electronic ankle bracelet on you!”
Once you put on the electronic ankle bracelet, if you approached Mrs. Benson, the electronic ankle bracelet would sound, and once the electronic ankle bracelet sounded, the police would immediately come and arrest you!
By that time, you really wouldn’t be able to see Mrs. Benson again!
These words scared Jerome successfully.
“Foreign laws are so crazy, aren’t they?” Jerome exclaimed in frustration. “Crystal is my wife, why do they not allow me to be near her?”
“Ah, there’s no way around it, that’s just how the law in France is,”

sighed the subordinate. “So, you can’t be impatient. If you want to get Mrs. Benson back, you have to take it step by step, slowly.”
Jerome, on the other hand, did listen to advice. That night, he did not bother Crystal anymore. Instead, he spent money to hire a lawyer to help him find a way to avoid legal risks.
The lawyer told Jerome that although the laws in France were strict, they also had loopholes.
Only when it constitutes harassment, will the police forcibly make him wear an electronic ankle bracelet.
To constitute a harassment offense, evidence is required.
For example, some inappropriate physical contact, or sending harassing text messages…
“That means, as long as I avoided any physical contact with Crystal and didn’t send her any text messages, leaving no written evidence, the police wouldn’t be able to determine that I was harassing Crystal?” Jerome was quite clever, he understood it right away.
The lawyer nodded and affirmed Jerome’s statement, “That’s right, as long as there is no evidence left behind, it does not constitute harassment.”
Finally, Jerome relaxed.
He decided to stay in France and start pursuing Crystal again.
Although it was a bit troublesome, as long as I made sure to keep my distance and approached Crystal like a gentleman with grace, the police wouldn’t interfere.

He had confidence and was certain that he could win back Crystal’s
heart and chase after her again.
