That night the busiest person was Abbey; She knew the cravings of the audience for the background of her previous articles. There was a huge fan base following for the travel diaries of two ladies who travelled anonymously and how they found the love of their life during these travels. Her boss had told her that most of the letters they received was urging them shed light into the circumstances that led to the ladies requiring to travel incognito.Sam had told her that he was even approached by other magazines wanting to buy the article with the backstory at a high price but at that stage they didn’t have that intention but now, the more coverage they got would, the better it would be for their cause although they were confident in winning the court case, public opinion can be a scary fact especially for the kids who might not have an adult with them all the time.Abbey decided to give Sam a ring to check if he had any contacts or ideas to increase coverage. The two plotted for the ear

Emile was probably the only person who wasn’t impacted by the article; She had lived through it which was a hundred times worse than what Abbey had written… but the other reason was she didn’t read the article. She trusted Abbey, she didn’t have to read to know what she wrote.She wondered why her husband and kids weren’t in the lounge area waiting for her as usual when she came back from work; but she didn’t waste time wondering, she turned to Jeffrey “Where is everyone?”“Boss is with the children in their bedroom.” Jeffrey responded as he hanged the coat and hat that Emile had handed over.“Um” Emile nodded with a quizzical pout, but she didn’t question Jeffrey any further. She walked towards the children’s room; ‘Why bother the poor butler when she could get the answer from the horse’s mouth?’Emile opened the door and stood still watching the serene scene in the room, savouring the beauty of the scene in front of her. Chris was sitting with his eyes closed on the rocking chair wit

The next morning, Chris and Emile were the last ones to wake up and come downstairs. It was a miracle that they slept in this long considering the noise downstairs. Chris Jnr and Emm had woken up in the morning and went for a run as per their norm before crawling back into bed to snuggle with mommy and daddy.The only difference was usually daddy would accompany them for the morning run but this morning, daddy feigned ignorance to their prodding no matter how they poked him. They could only ditch their daddy who was feigning sleep and go on with their day. Luckily big brother wasn’t as heartless as daddy and was waiting for them along with their Burke brothers and sisters.The younger generation of Burkes didn’t have this habit considering they were all still young, but they got up for the sake of excitement. Miles, Penny and Vincent too joined the mob soon after Chris Jnr and Emm joined them.“Why is everyone up so early?” Emile asked with a sheepish smile as she noted that everyone w

“I concur.” Judge Bianchini nodded as he turned towards Thomas “Unless Defence council has something to prove otherwise.”“Your Honor, I would like to submit exhibits P1 which is a court order from the country that Mr Holston is a citizen of and one that my client resided in while she married to Mr Holston.” Thomas paused before continuing-“However, before submitting that to public, I would like to display exhibits Q1, R1 and S1 as my background evidence for exhibit P1 so that my client will not be accused of misusing either her maternal home clout or her current one.”The clerk projected the exhibits in the order Thomas requested after receiving a nod from Judge Bianchini.On screen was the living room of the Emile and Daniel’s wedding room. Michelle stood next to Daniel crying that she didn’t want to be a stepmother and that Daniel had broken his promise by letting Emile become pregnant. In the background was a pale Emile who had been throwing up non-stop and weakly refuting the acc

“Madam, would you like to comment on today’s verdict?” Reporters crowded around Emile even before she had a chance to leave the court room. Chris who had just walked over to Thomas frowned visibly as he gestured Night Wing to clear the reporters away. However, even before Night Wing could take a step forward, Emile who was standing with her and Chris’s sisters-in-law (and sisters) opened her mouth with a smile “Justice is served.”“Madam, we were called here today by your ex-husband for observing and broadcasting the court proceedings.” One of the reporters who felt sorry for Emile after witnessing everything at the court proceedings and decided to come clean “I didn’t expect the truth to be so far from what we were led to believe. I am sorry but I promise to report everything I witnessed today truthfully, if you permit.”“And if I don’t?” Emile chuckled lightly.“I will respect your choice.” The reporter responded a graceful smile.“Won’t you be in trouble with your editor?” Emile rai
