Anders shakes his head. Orion is a clown. He shifts his attention to Karl.

“Are you alright?”

Karl nods and stills himself. “It was just a minor accident. She didn't know I was coming behind her when she flipped her hand.” He sniffs. “She didn't even realize that she struck me.”

The woman's brows knit. Karl was lying tooth and nail.

Karl turns to her. “Thanks for your help, ma'am.”

She simply eyes him and walks off, regretting why she bothered to help him. She agrees in her heart that he deserved that punch.

“You want to have that checked out?” Orion asks.

“I’ll manage.” Karl says.

Anders eyes him, assessing the credibility of his words. “Are you done here?”

“Yes. I was leaving. I’ve seen the client. There's a hearing in three days. We rehearsed for court and went through some details about the case.” Karl says, aiming to impress Anders.

Anders glanced at Orion.

“It's one of the minor cases…”

“No case is minor.” Anders cuts Orion. “Our clients are our priority.” He reminds him. In hi

  • Fake Dating The Tycoon Lawyer    Chapter 13

    Anders yanks the door open. He smiles as he opens the door to reveal Laurel.“Granny,” he beams. He moves back for Granny to step inside.Clutching tightly to the caregiver with her, the old woman struggles to enter the house. She appears worse. Drawn and strained. A throbbing falls over Anders’ eyes.Slowly, his smile falls. “You look unwell, Granny.” Anders remarks. “Oh well! That's the new hello now?” Laurel grunts as she takes a step inside. Anders is silent. He's watching her every move. Standing to offer help if needed.“I guess it's good to see you too, Anders.” Laurel says.“You should be resting, Granny.”“Since when did you change your profession?” Laurel asks. “You're a doctor now?”“You're struggling, Granny.” Anders insists.“Nonsense!” Laurel waves her hand. “Where is Electra?” The old woman asks, eyes roving in search of Electra.Electra appears in front of her. A genuine smile spread across her lips.“A pleasant face to welcome me.” She smiles at Electra. A frown for

    Ready, Electra stands in front of the full-length mirror, watching her reflection. The green, short-sleeved, knee-length dress is a perfect fit. A golden broach; the only embroidery on the dress hangs on her left breast.She glances at the desk clock on the vanity table. 6:50pm. Almost time for dinner. She smooths her dress to still the quivering in her hands. It does nothing to relieve the tension in her chest. Her father will be here. A chill travels down her spine at the thought.She takes deep breaths and counts along with each breath until she counts to ten.Exhaling one large gush of air, she stills herself before she steps out of her room. She reaches the dining table to find it all set. Plates, cutlery, napkins, candles- all the works of a table setting arranged by a professional chef. But there’s no one around.She hears a rattling in the kitchen. She trails the sound to the kitchen and stops by the door, hypnotized by what she sees.Clad in black pants, a white shirt, top

    “Hello, pumpkin.” He greets as his eyes trail her, noting small, novel details about her.Electra huffs out a breath and rolls her eyes. “And sour goes the rest of my day.” She takes a U-turn back inside the house.“Great! I’m just about happy to see you too.” He says as he steps inside the house and struggles to shut the door behind him while holding the flowers and the dress. Electra shivers in revolt. She doesn’t look at him. “You're back early.” She points.“Why did you lock the door?”“Would you have preferred I left it open?” She has her back to him, exiting the room. If he can't tell that she had to rush out of the bathroom, then he is probably blind.Anders flashes his eyebrows. “Good point.” Distracted, he stares at her swaying bum as she walks away. Definitely no panties under that shirt, leaving very little to his imagination.Apple bum. Nice shape. Why the hell does she hide them in those hideous slacks? He tuts.“How are you?” He bites his tongue a second too late. Wron

    “You're not safe here.” Worry clothes her voice. The urgency of the situation presses down on her.“It's nothing to worry about.” Even he doesn't believe himself.“Yeah.” Electra nods. “That’s very comforting.”Nikas doesn't miss her sarcasm. “There are guards here, Electra.”“And there were no guards when this happened?” She fires back.“When do I get to see your boyfriend?”“Don't. Don't do that.”He titters. They both know what he's doing. “You're hiding him from me now?”She glares at him. His eyes twinkle with mischief and amusement. They keep at it. She sighs resignedly. He wins.“I hate it when you do that.” She says.“You're cute when you do that.” He returns.She smiles and shakes her head. She'll let it go. Only for now.“Paul let me use his bike while he's out of town.” She beams excitedly, following his switch in discussion.“Oh!” Nikas smiles. His sister loves to ride just as much as he does. “How long would he be gone for?”Electra shrugs. “He didn't say. He just told m

    “Place your phone, keys and any metal you have on you here.” The officer slides a metal tray over to Electra. This is the last security check Electra has to go through before she can enter the prison.She does as she is told, going as far as removing her pant belt, placing it in the tray before she steps through the metal detector. This is a routine she’s used to. She gains an entry pass when the machine makes no noise. The officer nods for her to go on.She walks into the state prison, her heart beating fast against her chest. This isn’t her first time here. She comes here every other week when she can get away from her father. Living with Anders eliminates the eagle eyes of her father watching her every move. But it doesn’t eliminate the racing in her heart; not the heaviness she feels whenever she comes here; not the memories of her life. Her hard life without her brother. Her shield.She stills herself and forces a smile over her face as she catches sight of him. Another officer
