Chapter 18 - The Judge Grants Hadrian Full Custody And Restraining Orders

Judge Miller slammed his heavy wooden gavel down one final time, the sharp crack echoing off the high courthouse ceiling.
“I hereby grant full, unconditional, and sole legal custody of Sorrel Cole to her father, Hadrian Cole, with zero visitation rights.”
“Furthermore, a permanent lifetime restraining order is issued prohibiting Vanessa Vance from coming within five miles of the child.”
“Additionally, federal warrants for embezzlement and child endangerment are hereby authorized for immediate execution.”
Applause broke out in the public gallery before the bailiff quickly restored order with a stern warning.

She shot one final, venomous glare toward Hadrian, but he didn't even bother to look back at her as she was hauled away.
