“What! You are talking nonsense, just shut up” Jemma snarled.“The thing is that April kidnapped me and locked me in this room. If it wasn’t for Jared, they were going to kill me, Daddy. I only came to tell her to leave me alone after she posted claims on the media that she was Jared’s wife and that our marriage was fake” Celine finished explaining and April shot him a dark stare.April sneered” Dad, don’t listen to her. It wasn’t me who posted it, It was Jared’s grandparents” she said shamelessly forgetting that they have asked her not to mention their names.” How could you be so shameless, you dare say that about my family?” Jared asked.“April, how many times did I warn you to leave Celine alone? Jemma, I am so disappointed in you, didn’t you think that I didn’t know what was going on. If I find out that the thugs that you brought in my home stole any of my belongings, I will send the two of you out of this house. This is not a joking matter, I am so fed up with you ” he laughed s
April could afford a smile as she hugged her mother tight on the shoulder.Some one cleared his voice” do you mind telling me what is making you happy? Just a moment ago you two were arguing, not that I care about it, but I know it is just something evil” Patrick commented with a don’t care look. He had drunk a little and it was making him feel free to state his mind.Jemma sneered “Why are you interested in what we are talking about when you don’t even care about your daughter. Patrick ,when was the last time you listened to her problems or better yet when was the last time you stood up for her? All you do is defend that child from hell?”Patrick laughed sarcastically” I have been defending the two of you all this years but what have I got to show for it? I can’t do it any more, I have chosen to mind my business and only care for those who care about me. Anyway, I came to tell you that I will be sending someone here to look at my things. If anything turns out to be missing then yo
The announcement came” every one please be seated as the court will start shortly”The plaintiff lawyer was the first one to stand up. Ivan knew the man, in fact he was one of his mentors back when he was still gaining feet in his career. He began to wonder where Joel got him from. He had heard some rumours recently that the lawyer was unscrupulous and that was why he cut his ties with him.“Your honor, my name is Mr. Daniel Cooper and I will be representing the plaintiff. In my introduction, I would like to state that I have studied this case in length and I have to say that my clients have the right to the land which I will demonstrate shortly. Thank you ‘he finished and sat down.Joel nodded his head in agreement. Celine thought “how could someone be this evil? Next the defendant’s lawyer stood up. Ivan Barret also did his introduction with his head held high with confidence. Even if he looked to this man before for advises, he will not intimidate him at all. Now more than ever, h
Director Erick couldn’t contain his anger anymore and ended up shouting “He is lying, I personally met him with my fellow director and we signed all the agreements. We paid him the full amount of the money. How can you lie like that? Please tell the truth.”The judge hit the table” Please behave in my court. The defendant lawyer, advise your people to have some disciple or I will throw them out of the court.” I understand your honour” Ivan replied politely.“Director Erick, please calm down, I will handle everything” Ivan tried to console him, he was already worked up and he was sweating everywhere. That stupid man has been paid and so he had the guts to look into his eyes and tell a lie.“You see ,my client had been threatened because they knew that they didn’t have the rightful papers. So my honour, I arrest my case because it is clear that my client is the owner who is being wronged here” Daniel said and went to sit down.“Alright, I think that we have heard from the plaintiff si
The man assumed as if he didn’t hear what Lina was saying and addressed Jared “Please, you should go home before any unnecessary scene again. Whatever happens here will automatically affect the outcome of our case. I will take care of Lina, okay”Jared chuckled sarcastically” he was just happy to see how miserable Lina was looking but what amazed him was how Ivan had the patience to stand in for the woman when he didn’t even like her.Celine turned to Lina” Bestie will you be, okay?”“Celine let her be. She is in good hands. I think it is so good to let them sort out their issues or continue the hate.” Jared muttered excitedly and Ivan stared daggers at him. Here he was compromising with the unbearable woman to protect him and Celine, he wasn’t even appreciating it.“Don’t worry about me, at least I have told that piece of shit my mind.” She said but inside her mind, she kept on screaming” please don’t leave me alone with him, Celine. I really fear this jerk. What will he do to me? Bu
Somehow, he felt at ease while kissing her. It was this strange feeling that made him lose his patience at the time when she took advantage of him. Not really……he enjoyed ravishing those full and inviting lips and he couldn’t wait to taste them again.It has been driving him crazy since the day that he tasted them. He couldn’t sleep without thinking about her, but why did this happen to him. It had to be the woman that he didn’t want to associate with.Lina surrendered, this was too much for her to be able to have some control. The man held her tenderly and kissed her passionately while letting her know that people can be different. He made her realize that there was a slight chance that she could feel something special with a man.Lina responded with her own hungry and unrestraint desire giving the man an opportunity to completely consume her. They were floating somehow in their own world, no one could have imagined that not long ago, the two were enemies who didn’t seem to see eye t
“I promise. Anyway, let us not talk about the court case. Let us do something interesting. We have to learn how to balance challenges and good times” the moment he finished saying those words his mouth landed on her” Oh...…he didn’t know how long she had been longing to kiss him and transfer all her frustrations to this.She has been silently keeping everything bottled inside. She wanted to kick or punch something but there was none. So it was good to know that there was someone giving her opportunity to release everything.“Yeah…. I think we have wasted enough time.” She said coquettishly. Any way she had been through so many problems, it was a high time that she started putting them aside for her own happiness. Happiness only come to those people who embrace it but if you keep on focusing on all the things that were negative in life, it would weigh on your shoulders.“Huh…..I thought that you weren’t in the mood, but now that I have gotten your message, let us get started.” He l
Dean too followed him and sat next to him.The judges walked in to the court room and the occupants stood up in their respects. After they had sat down, it was time to begin the day’s proceedings.“ Everyone thank you so much for coming early .As you know, we are still on the land issue case and so I would like to give the defendant lawyer a chance to state his side of the story.” The head of the judges announced.“Thank you my honor for the opportunity. As I had said before, I still insist that our client is the rightful owner of this land. I have provided all the signed documents including the plaintiff’s witness own signature. I do hope you will consider this during your judgment. Cutting the story short, may I invite a witness to the stand?“You may proceed” the judge ordered.Director Erick stood up and headed to the stand. He swore that he will tell nothing but the whole truth. Celine looked at him and encouraged him a bit, she just hoped that his statement will give a different
