Xavier~

“Xavier, how are you feeling behind the bars? Are you enjoying your punishment?”

I was trying to sleep by closing my eyes but I opened my eyes and got up from the bench on hearing Jordan Lucas's evil voice.

"What are you doing here?" Seeing him, my blood boiled with anger. I will surely attack him right away if these bars are not between us.

"I enjoy seeing you in pain, so I came here to enjoy a show." He smiled wickedly.

Thank God that I am behind bars; otherwise, today no one would be able to protect him. I gritted my teeth angrily.

"Xavier, you have now become habitual at living behind bars because I will not let you come out of prison at any cost." I became even more enraged at his wide smile.

"Jordan, don't celebrate your win too soon. My wife will shortly get my bail approved." I proudly informed him.

"Oh? Do you think she will make any effort to free you when she is busy romancing with her past lover?" A policeman brought him a chair, and he sat down slowly with his arm

    Isabella~“Veronica, how are you feeling now?” As soon as I got out of the prison cell, I bumped into Nathan. My muscles tensed on seeing him in front of me. After last night, he was someone whom I didn't want to confront."What are you doing here? Stop following me. Nathan, I told you last night that I forgot about my past and now there is no space for you in my life.” I didn't want to sound rude to him after his help last night, but what else could I do now? Because of him, I had to lie to Xavier today.I didn't want to lie to him, but seeing his red, angry face, I got scared. I am well aware of his possessiveness. If he finds out that Nathan has feelings for me, then he will not allow me to fight his case regardless of the circumstances. At this crucial time, when no lawyer wants to take Xavier's case into their hands, I can't take any risk.So I decided to hide my past with Nathan from Xavier. It's not like I didn't try to confess to him, but a chill ran down my spine when I saw

    Isabella~“Veronica, please stop.” He confronted me and blocked my path."I don't want to talk to you, Nathan. Get out of my way." Seeing him blocking my way, I was shocked. I didn't expect him to jump out at me suddenly and demand that I have a conversation with him."Veronica, you don't need to be angry with me. I heard on the phone that you came to the hospital to see the doctor, so I was worried and thought of meeting you." His voice softened, and his face filled with concern.I sighed heavily when I saw the concern in his eyes for me."All right, tell me what you want to discuss." I crossed my arms across my chest and signaled him to speak. My body is weakened, and I already feel overstressed due to the chaos in my life. At this moment, Nathan is only adding fuel to my tension, but seeing his puppy face, I can't hold myself from being cold for a long time."Veronica, first tell me why you visited the doctor. Are you all right?" His eyes fixed on the medical reports I was holding

    Isabella~”Bella, please open your eyes.” I felt a warm touch on my cheek and Xavier's restless voice. I tried to open my eyes but it felt like someone put a heavy stone on my eyelids."Xavier, I need water," I asked him to drink water for me with my eyes closed. I don't understand what happened to me suddenly. I didn't realize when I passed out while crying by putting my head on Xavier's shoulder. These last few days have been so exhausting for me. I became habitual to living with Xavier and in his absence, things are getting difficult for me to handle. I am well aware that Uncle Joseph will increase my difficulties in this case but I don't have any idea that he declined Xavier’s bail application again. On the one hand, I am worried about Xavier and Victor's case verdict in our favor. On the other hand, the return of Nathan in my life increases my tension even more."Bella, drink the water." He offered me a glass of water and supported my back with a courtroom bench."Xavier, I am f

    Xavier~“Mr. Thompson, shall we proceed? The court hearing is scheduled to begin in the next 30 minutes.”I opened my eyes to hear the police officer's voice. I got up from my bench and came in front of the prison door."This time your chances of getting bail are so much less since the prosecutor's lawyer is so strong and talented." He motioned for me to come out after opening my lockup."Who’s the prosecutor?" I questioned him with confusion. My curiosity was piqued to know about the prosecutor since I don't think any lawyer is compatible with Bella. She is the town’s most successful and sensible lawyer. After handling so many high-profile cases, she became the top choice for all the high-profile clients."Nathan Ronaldo. He is famous for his selection of the cases. He doesn't choose every case to fight, no matter how much the client is ready to pay." The police officer's voice was filled with excitement as he watched the events unfold on the television screen.My gaze fell on the te

    Isabella~“Xavier.” Tears rolled down my cheeks as I watched him leave me alone. I stood outside my house until the police car blurred my vision.I dialed Lisa's number in anger. Every cell of my body was now fuming with rage. How can she do this to Xavier? She is well aware that Xavier didn't kill her daughter, so how can she support Jordan Lucas in this case?"Isabella, my child, I missed you." She received my call, and her sugar-coated, venomous voice pierced my ear."Put an end to this, Mrs. Lisa Morgan, and tell me what you want." I roared with anger."You were always a blunt child, but I never expected you to attack me with that sharp tongue." She didn’t like my tone and got angry with me."I didn’t call you to please you. I only wanted to know what your motive is behind reopening this case." I clenched my fists."It’s simple, my love. I wanted to see Xavier behind bars. I don’t want to see both of you together. You don’t deserve to be his wife; only my daughter had that right."

    Xavier~“What are you doing here, Bella?” I questioned her with confusion as I noticed her standing in the car parking area. I searched for her everywhere in the courtroom and found her now."Xavier, Uncle Joseph will not give a verdict in our favor; he is just wasting our time." Fear flooded her eyes."What are you talking about?" I looked at her in confusion. My heartbeat is already fast when I don't find her anywhere in my surroundings and now I feel even more anxious on seeing her fear-filled face. I am well aware of Jordan Lucas; he will go to any length to prove himself innocent so now I have to be more careful about Bella’s safety."Xavier, Uncle Joseph wanted to reopen Alicia’s case. He clearly warned me: if we wanted justice in Victor’s case, then we had to find Alicia’s murderer." Her face was etched with anxiety and terror."Bella, we will find some solution to this problem; please don't stress yourself." I pulled her into a hug to make her feel calm."But Xavier, what wil

  • Reclaimed by the Billionaire    Substitute Judge

    Isabella~“Uncle Joseph.” I jumped from my chair when I saw him sitting on the judge's chair. He was the last person I ever expected him to meet and now he is sitting on the judge's chair. I turned to look at Xavier's facial expression."Bella, I am now sure that we will lose this case," Xavier muttered in my ear upon seeing Uncle Joseph.So this is his evil plan. How cleverly he used our family members to protect himself from getting punished is something truly remarkable. I never assumed that he would find Uncle Joseph as a substitute judge for this case. Now I understand his whole plan. He killed the former judge so that he could involve Uncle Joseph in this case. He was well aware that after submitting solid evidence against him in the court in the last hearing, he didn't have any other option to save himself from getting a death sentence so he changed the judge before he could give his verdict."Begin the court procedure." Hearing the new judge's voice, my internal thought train

    Xavier~“What the fuck is this? How can he commit suicide just before the verdict is declared in Victor’s murder case?” I raked my fingers through my hair with frustration, trying to process what I had just heard."Xavier, I told you already that Jordan Lucas will do something terrible to protect himself from getting punished." Bella’s eyes filled with worry and fear after watching the news."Relax, Bella, we already submitted solid proof in this murder case, so I have full trust that no matter how much Jordan Lucas is trying to run away from this case, the law will not leave him without being punished for his crimes. All the evidence points towards him, prompting the filing of numerous new FIRs in anticipation of his punishment for his crimes." I handed her a glass of water and patted her shoulder to console her."What are we going to do now? You don't listen to me when I tell you not to celebrate too soon." Tears rolled into her eyes. She has every right to be angry at me; after al
