However, the court ruled that the money was spent willingly as gifts. During their relationship from 2022 to 2023, Agarwal consistently showered Lee with lavish gifts. The judge noted that Agarwal was a man of ample means with expensive tastes, while Lee was not in that league. The court found that Agarwal lacked documentary evidence to prove Lee had acknowledged the money as loans. The relationship ended after Agarwal suspected Lee of having an affair. The judge ruled that Agarwal became embittered after the breakup and attempted to extract a price from Lee. The court cited the fact that Lee often expressed awe and spontaneous reluctance to accept the expensive gifts during their relationship.
