In the gallery, Martin, Elizabeth, and Lily sat upright and tense, waiting for the verdict of the case.
Across the aisle, Jolie and Aniston attended as leaders of the Mitu movement, their black professional attire adorned with a red-painted fist pin on the lapel—a symbol of Mitu.
This was the emblem of Mitu!
Nearby, Jennifer Garner waited anxiously with several children in tow.
The three defendants, perhaps sensing something, Pitt and Ben glanced back and saw their ex-wives.
The most ruthless were the ex-wife and the ex-girlfriend: Jolie and Aniston smiled at Pitt and gave him a slight nod.
Pitt seemed to have lost all his energy and, without any extreme reactions, he hung his head low and turned back, hoping for a shorter sentence so he might still have some influence after his release to earn money by filming in Sacred Valley.
Ben's gaze shifted from Jennifer Garner to Martin, and a mixture of resentment and anger surfaced on his tense face.
