Simon sighs and looks out the window. It was night already, and it was frustrating to sit there unable to do anything and just wait for others to do it for him. At least he had made a move first and informed his lawyer of the threat before the whole thing blew up, if not, it would have been really frustrating. He looked around the private room and found Asher wasn't anywhere in the room, he didn’t bother looking for him either, he knew he was working hard to keep things in check at the company, he pulled out his phone and saw the missed calls from Alvira, at the sight of it, he sighed again, she must be really worried about him, he had to call her and let her know he was fine. As he was about to do just that, he stumbled on the video sent to him by an anonymous number. He opened it first hoping to watch it before calling Alvira. He frowned when he saw Lana, Clarisse, and Alvira seated at a table in a cafe."I wanted to give you this.” Clarisse pulled an envelope out of her bag and p

Alvira's eyes widened in surprise then she shook her head in disbelief, “That’s not true. Simon would never believe a thing like that.” She said without batting a lash and Jared raised a brow.“Why don’t you call him and see.” He said with an air of confidence around him.“He might be angry for a few days but...” Alvira trailed off as her mind went back to the last discussion she had with Simon. He seems to be mad at her, really mad. He had broken up with her, he broke up with her without even telling her why. So this was it? This was the reason? He heard something about her?She kept her eyes glued to the plate, not wanting Jared to see the continuous emotional fluctuations in her eyes as she began to remember the things that Simon had said to her that night, so he had said all that because of what he had seen in a video? What video was it? Why didn't he confront her but accuse her instead? So he believes the things in the video over her? When he had said they were done. He really

Barrister Mike Barnes, sat down in the almost empty courtroom staring absentmindedly at the file in front of him, he had been a lawyer for almost ten years now, had started his firm a while back, and up until now, this was the first case he was sure he was going to lose and it was so heartbreaking because he knew what kind of person Simon was, he knew he was innocent, but he couldn’t defend him. All his life as a lawyer, he had never felt this helpless.He looked up at the empty judge’s seat and sighed, the case was a little hard because right from the onset, the opinion of the public had been against him, he knew that even the judge was filled with prejudice, so he was attacked left and right making things difficult for him even during the court session but he didn’t blame anyone, he could only attribute his failure this time to lack of enough time for proper investigation. He was not going to give up here, he was going to file for a retrial if they lost the case. He was going to sav

Edgar’s face paled at the words he heard Miller say, so he, who had been classified as a just man since the beginning of the case, was here supporting criminals and trying to put an innocent man in jail? He glanced at Simon who was sitting in his box watching the entire drama unfold as if it had nothing to do with him and sighed. There must be nothing new about what was happening right now for this man. He glanced at Mike who was doing the questioning and he felt like he finally knew why Mike was better than himself, it was simple, he had better eyes. He dropped the pen in his hand in resignation and rested back in his chair determined to watch the rest of the court session, he had no other argument.“Miss Miller, no one is judging you, I only asked if you knew the man in the video,” Mike asked again, obviously unbothered by Miller’s weeping, as all the other people watching her were. In fact, a lot of people now felt irritated by her weeping.“Yes.”“Who is he?’”“Mr. Joshua Stone!”

An apartment on the 22nd floor of a high-end community was in a mess, Clarisse ran around the house urgently, picking expensive things and stuffing them into her suitcase according to their sizes. When she was done, she hid the things which were too big to pack in a secluded place in the living room. She rushed to the bedroom and continued her frantic packing, she opened Josh’s drawer with force and the flower vase neatly placed on it fell with a crash which startled her. She paused for a second, then began to rummage through the drawer, packing the cash, and gold bars that Josh had into her handbag when she suddenly heard someone inputting the password to the house at the door. Her eyeballs shrank in fear, she shut the drawer, zipped her suitcases, and hid them under the bed alongside her handbag, looked around the room for any evidence of her packing but found none, she sighed and calmed her breathing. She grabbed Josh’s baseball bat as she heard the frantic footsteps of the perso
