CORAWith tears in her eyes, Judith began, "Greg was my elder brother. He took care of all of us when our father died. He was just fifteen years old at the time and my younger brother and I didn't have much going for us.My mom's health wasn't good so Greg dropped out of school and funded our education until we graduated college. To us, Greg was everything. I know he wasn't a saint, I know he had his excesses, but he was the best brother and the best son anyone could ever ask for.That is who you took from this world, Cora." When she said the last sentence, her voice was louder and she turned her attention to me as tears fell uncontrollably from her eyes."Why did you have to kill him? I want justice. You have to pay for the murder of my brother."She broke down in tears at this point and her mum began to cry loudly too. I could hear sympathetic noises from those in the audience but I did not look away from Judith. I kept staring at her as she cried.The prosecuting counsel reached ou

REIGN The court was very silent as everyone seemed surprised by Lucas' statement including me. I could also see the look of shock on Cora's face as she stared at him.Meanwhile, Olsen had an almost invisible smile on his face. I didn't know what he did to make Lucas say the things he said but I was very glad that he was the attorney representing Cora.I was looking forward to the reaction of Netizens who claimed to be fighting for Lucas and had been calling Cora all sorts of names. I planned to make an example of them once the trial came to an end.Lucas may have told some lies, but he still stuck to the basic truth, which was what mattered most. Even the prosecuting counsel seemed so surprised that when Lucas got out of the witness box and the judge asked him if he would cross-examine him, the prosecutor said no.Olsen quickly called for his next witness and I saw Lisa walk into the courtroom and head for the witness stand. She chose to make an affirmation and afterward, Olsen said

CORAFrom the look on Olsen's face, it was obvious that he did not care about what Greg's brother wanted to say.I got out of the witness box, walked back to my seat, and held Reign's hand just like I did before. We looked at each other briefly and he whispered into my ears, "You did good, Angel."I smiled at him while the young boy got into the witness box, raised his right hand, and took an oath. Afterward, the judge gestured to the prosecuting counsel who seemed displeased by what was about to happen.The boy's mother and sister were staring at him, probably wondering what he was about to say and why he had kept silent all this while. "What do you intend to tell this honorable court?" The prosecutor asked him."It was a year ago," the boy began to narrate. "I visited Greg and while we ate, he kept staring at his phone. I got curious and joined him to see what he was looking at. It was a picture of a beautiful girl. She was tall, had long legs, and stood on a runway with a smile on

CORADuring the drive back home, I kept stealing glances at Reign, wondering if he had earlier heard my conversation with Emily. I felt so embarrassed just thinking about it, but at the same time, I was excited. Reign wanted us to spend time with each other without anyone's interruption. What could he have in mind?I had nothing to worry about anymore, except where I was going to live of course. After hearing that Greg's dead body had been left on the couch in my house, thinking about going back there made me feel very disturbed.The company had given me that apartment thanks to Reign's recommendation. How could I now tell him that I wanted to move my things out of there?"What are you thinking about?" Reign's voice suddenly interrupted my thoughts.""You," I blurted out with a smile.He chuckled, "You're thinking about me while I'm here and your brows are furrowed? It must be about something I did wrong.""Far from it," I replied. "In my eyes, you are perfect, Reign. I was just think

Avery laid on the bed, crying and shivering with her body curled up. Ever since she heard the verdict by the judge, she hadn't been able to take a step out of her hotel room.She had been following the court proceedings, hoping that Cora would be sent to prison but after hearing the testimony of Greg's brother, she had known Cora would be found not guilty. Hearing what Reign, Lisa, and Olsen had to say and how her name was repeatedly mentioned in the courtroom broke her. Her reputation had been ruined beyond repair.More than anything else, she regretted asking her mother for help. If only she had known that her mom would kill Greg and frame Cora for it, she would have let herself be blackmailed by him and found a much safer solution to it.Now, her pictures were being shared on social media and the same cane that was used to flog Cora was being used on her by netizens."I can't continue hiding here," she thought. The bills were piling up and a few people had seen her when she checked
