KATERINA

THREE DAYS LATER

It has already been three days since Lucas visited the company and the encounter with Stephanie. I scolded my secretary about giving my number to Lucas and she apologized for it, saying she thought we were best friends because he showed her the pictures of us together and we looked so happy, making her convinced and that is why she gave him the number. I asked her to never repeat the mistake again, telling her I won't be too nice next time.

I asked Lucas never to call me ever again and I’m glad that he listened because he never bothered me again, which I was grateful for. For Stephanie, we have never bumped into each other again since the encounter at the mall. My lawyer is still following up on the case, updating me the progress.

“Ladies and gentlemen, we have begun our descent in Elysium city. Please turn off all portable electronic devices in preparation for landing, be certain your back is straight up and your seatbelt is fastened,” The plane attenda

    KATERINA TWO DAYS LATER Sitting on the highly backed chair behind the vintage table, I stared at the phone screen keenly, trying to decipher what the coded message meant. This was the first time that I had come across such a message and I couldn't make out what it meant.One week's break was over and now I was back to work like I never left. I had a lot of paperwork to work on but here I was, staring at the message. A frustrated sigh escaped from my lips. This has been going on for the past three days.Since we're entangled in a serious case, every single letter, every single comma or a full stop needed to be examined. Everything that happens needs to be studied carefully. That's what my lawyer told me and I was holding onto his advice because I’m pretty sure that he knew what he was talking about.My phone's security is enhanced to make sure that no one breaks in easily. The mails and everything that is connect

    KATERINA “Arabella, Asher, Alex…where are you? Mommy is looking for you…” I sang as though it was some sort of song.“Shhh…” I could hear one of the triplets telling the others to keep quiet as they giggled. We were in the flower garden, playing hide and seek.“Bella, mommy is looking for you. Don't hide from mommy…” I said, pretending I didn't hear their gigglings as I continued to search for them.Turning around, I saw the three hidden behind a circle shaped flower, pressed against each other. My lips curled up into a smile, finding it cute.“There you are! You’ll never hide from mommy because I will always find you.” I joked and the three giggled, coming out from the hiding. I opened my arms wide for them and they both came rushing to me, each one of them fighting to be the first.“Mommy found you!” I hugged the triplets so tightly and they hugged me back. God, this felt so good…I raised my head to look at the balco

    KATERINA Despite the day being busy, I’m glad that at least something good came out of it. I didn't regret the exhaustion because the outcome was worth it. The sweet aroma wafted in the dining room, light talk and laugh filling the air. It has been a long time since I sat at a table like this and had a decent meal. I looked at the table and my lips curved into a smile. I raised the glass that was half filled with the amber liquid, “I would like to raise a glass to everyone present at this table.” I paused for a moment, darting my eyes to every single soul, a smile touching my lips. “Brenda, thank you for your support. Your testimony played a big role in the ruling. I know that…it wasn't easy staring at Stephanie while you were standing at the witness box. Her face reminded you of her cruelty.” Brenda smiled warmly when she heard my words, raising her glass in the air. Her blue eyes sparkled under the soft glow from the chandelier. She's a bombshell blondie. One of the beautif

    AUTHOR'S POV Lucas and Monalisa broke the tight hug, turned around and came face to face with David who looked all calm. Lucas arched his brow, wondering what David wanted to talk to him about. On the other hand, Monalisa gritted her teeth, anger boiling in her veins. “What do you want with my husband?Are you happy the court ruled in your girlfriend's favour?” Monalisa asked through gritted teeth. While in the courtroom, Monalisa realised how close David and Katerina were. She saw how comforting he was towards her step-sister and that made her dislike automatically. Monalisa never imagined that Katerina had someone who supported her the way David did. She thought that Kate was alone the way she used to be when she snatched everything from her Her father's love, her best friend and everything that she held dear. Lucas turned to look at Monalisa who was burning red with anger, “It's ok

    AUTHOR'S POVThe atmosphere in the courtroom was thick with anticipation, silence taking over as everyone patiently waited for the judge to give his ruling over the preliminary hearing. There were only two possible decisions and the judge could only choose one. Either his rule leans on the defending side, meaning the case would be closed and there would be no further hearing. Or…she leans on Katerina’s side, giving her a chance to prove to the judge and the entire world that indeed, Stephanie was behind her Dad's tragic death.Kate sucked in a tight breath, trying to brace herself for whatever had to come. She gave it her all. She told the court what needed to be told, not leaving any stone unturned. She believes that she did her best to convince the judge and everyone in the court that Stephanie is the real culprit. If it were up to her to make the ruling, she would give the case another chance since she strongly believes that if she's giv

    KATERINA It was silent inside the courtroom, even a pin-drop could be heard. Both prosecution and defence parties had settled down, patiently waiting for the judge to enter the room so that the hearing could begin. The air was thick with tension, anticipation and hope as the seconds passed by. There were exactly five minutes left before 9am.Katerina released a deep breath , trying her best to calm her racing heart. As though David sensed her discomfort, he touched Kate’s hand, giving it a gentle squeeze. Katerina turned her head momentarily to look at David and flashed him a gentle smile, silently thanking him for his unwavering support.On the other hand, Stephanie looked so relaxed, as though she wasn't the one accused of murder. Her shoulders were relaxed and there was a hint of smile across her face. She turned to look at her lawyer and they exchanged knowing looks.Lucas eyed Kate from the corner of his eyes. He saw how Katerina clung to th

    KATERINA It wasn't easy. I almost gave up the fight but…thanks to the heavens I had people who gave me strength to keep on fighting! David, Paula and my lawyer gave me the strength to keep on going, and the day that we have all been waiting for was finally here. Melissa's death was still a mystery, the person who knocked her with the car is yet to be found. Her mom hates me to the guts, blaming me for her daughter's death. I chose to remain silent, accepting the blame because I know how hard it's for her. It's hard for both of us… Heaving a deep sigh, I stared at my reflection in the mirror and for a second , I didn't recognise the person who was looking right back at me. I looked pale and exhausted. Even though I had applied light make-up, the dark circles on my eyes were still visible. It was hard for me to fall asleep last night. Each time I closed my eyes, I woke up to nightmares. The death of Melissa triggered the memories of my parent’s tragic deaths. My mind jolted bac

    KATERINA THE FOLLOWING DAY, SUNDAY I stared at the cold unmoving body, my vision blurry with tears. I was still holding onto that glimmer of hope that maybe, just maybe…there was a confusion of names. However, staring at Melissa’s body in a morgue cooler proved otherwise.There was no confusion, not even slightest.She was dead!Her eyes were shut tightly and her lips clumped together. I wished she could blink or…opened her eyes to tell me that it was just a bad nightmare and it would pass. To my disappointment, it was quiet inside the morgue, no traces of life apart from the morgue attendance and the people who had accompanied me to see the body.We followed up with the police first thing in the morning and we were told that she died right after she was hit by the car. It was a hit and run kind of situation. The car that hit her drove away and it didn't have a silence plate for identical. The police are still lo

    KATERINA“I just received the news that Melissa is dead…” My lawyer's words echoed in my head over and over again, like bad music which was put on repeat.How? I couldn't help but question myself, trying to make sense of his words. Melissa's happy face flashed in my mind. That bright smile that could light the dark sky and melt away all sadness.She was so happy about the case. She was in good health a few hours ago when we parted ways and agreed that we would meet on my Monday for the court’s hearing. I shook my head, refusing to accept what Evan had just told me a few seconds ago, the words so fresh in my mind.“This can't be…” I shook my head frantically, trying to convince myself that it wasn't true. The corner of my lips curving into a bitter smile. If this was a joke, I swear it's the worst joke that I have ever heard in my entire life. It wasn't funny at all!“She was perfectly
