Atlas Hallow's expression darkened, his voice filled with danger: "You can do as you please, but once the separation period is over, the divorce will be granted. During this time, you cannot live in the Hallow Family's house, and you cannot take away anything from the Hallow Family. If you file a lawsuit, I believe no lawyer will take your case, and you can't afford the legal fees."
The lawsuit charges based on the value of the target; he has already cut off Ava Walker's economic resources, rendering her unable to afford even the legal fees.
To deal with someone you detest, you don't need to kill her; just throw her into the dust. She is essentially the same kind of person as Hailey Hill, living an extremely extravagant material life. If you throw them into a life of poverty, such punishment would be more painful than death.
