I (34 F) was stabbed and now my soon-to-be ex-husband (34 M) wants to cancel the divorce

My soon-to-be ex-husband and I had been married for 12 years. We got married at 22.

About 4 months ago he asked me for a divorce after confessing to me that he was having an affair and that he was in love with that person. At first I took it badly but I have always said that if there is a third person in a relationship, someone is left out. I also didn't want to waste my energy begging for something I know won't come back.

His mother got sick and I had to take care of her at night since the lady is quite picky with other people. She always treated me badly but I still took care of her. This delayed the divorce a bit, I guess they were using me as a nurse or babysitter lol.

A month and a half ago I was assaulted when I was going to work (I don't have a car, my husband always drove me but he stopped after filing for divorce), I didn't have much with me, just my cell phone and about 10 dollars, so I was stabbed for not carrying much in your pockets (LATAM moment).

My emergency contact was my husband and the whole thing. He now doesn't want a divorce since he says that “this altercation opened his eyes and that he really can't imagine a life without me.”

It was going to be an uncontested divorce since this type of divorce is totally free in my country and I'm stingy enough to not want to pay a lawyer's fees, but now he doesn't want a divorce.

I'm living with my mother and my soon-to-be ex-husband comes every day to screw up my existence.

What do I do to get rid of it? I already made it clear to him that I don't want anything from him. Besides, I already hired a lawyer to advise me but he says it's taking too long because he doesn't want a divorce.
