Even in prison she had the freedom to do all she wanted to do. There was a smart tv, a smart phone to call who she wants to call and other kinds of luxury that one doesn’t get in a prison. The only freedom Nuella doesn’t have is the freedom to go where she wants to go. Staying in this place will help her better plan what she was about to do to Cassandra who dared to double cross her and try to look good in the public eye.While she was pacing around her luxury cell, the iron door of her cell was being opened from outside making her stop and turn towards the door. She hoped and prayed that they were here to tell her that she had a visitor and the person was Oliver. Just a night in cell already made her miss him so much including their child.The door opened and the person that walked in was Oliver. Nuella rushed towards him excitedly and wrapped her hands around him and even jumped in his arms like a kid. Oliver’s heart felt warm when he saw how cheerful she was. On his way here, he w
The judge arrived and everyone in the courtroom stood up and only sat down after the judge did.The court hearing was being broadcast live on tv and on the internet. Everyone was watching right from their place of work or at home. Why it was live broadcasted was because they wanted to make sure that the Armstrong's and the Haywood’s didn't manipulate the case since they had a lot of power and influence to do so.The public wanted the case to go well and to be fair and square, also no cheating.Nuella had sat at the front roll beside her two lawyers who were handling the case while across from them was where the prosecutors were seated.She was asked to take the witness stand and was made to swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth while placing her hand on the Holy scriptures.Soon the prosecutor stood up and walked towards her.“Mrs Haywood could you please tell this court where you were on the 6th of last month”“At the Armstrong Headquarters”“Doing what?”“My job, I’m th
Prosecutor Kim was shocked when he heard what Lawyer Song said. If there was any evidence he should have already heard about it by now, so what evidence was he talking about?The audience whispered amongst themselves and wondered which evidence because if there was evidence then Mrs Haywood would have not remained in jail.“Silence!!” The court deputy said to make everyone quiet.The judge relaxed his back on his executive chair “Then where is the evidence?” The judge asked Lawyer Kim went back to his desk and brought out a file and a device.Cassandra's eyes widened when she saw that there was indeed evidence. What exactly will be contained in that file that will help reveal the truth? She was sure to have covered her tracks very well and made sure nothing was found.“We are in the era of technology so as such there is nothing that technology can not do. In my hands is a device invented in Japan, this device can be used to detect fake documents and signatures.The crowd whispered am
For the first time ever Oliver was going to sit down and have a drink with his father inlaw, Raymond Armstrong. After the court hearing of yesterday Raymond had asked to have dinner and drink with him and preferred it to be somewhere quite. Oliver has many elite restaurants that he could make a reservation but since his father inlaw wanted somewhere quite to have dinner and drink with him. Oliver decided to book a space In his newly built 15 star hotel. He had choosed a table that had the view of the whole city since the hotel was 60 story tall. On the 60th floor was restaurant only the rich amongst the rich can afford and that is were he was going to have dinner with his father in law. Raymond was the first to arrive and was showed the table. He took his seat at the table and looked at the view which was so magnificent, Oliver sure had a good taste. He had built this hotel in the middle of the city and it has gained lots of attention due to that, his son in law was indeed a good bus
It was her only chance and she wasn't going to miss it for anything. The heavy scent of alcohol hung in the air as she got closer to him in the bed. Oliver was fully clothed and fast asleep. With gentle, hesitant movements, she began to unbutton his suit jacket, trying not to disturb his deep slumber. The soft rustling of fabric seemed to echo in the silence.As she worked on the buttons, Cassandra couldn't help but feel a mix of concern and tenderness for Oliver. He had been through so much lately, and it was clear that he had turned to alcohol as a temporary escape. She was the cause of everything but if she hadn’t done what she did, she would not have been here with him right now. She needed to send Nuella to jail, even if it will break Oliver slowly he will learn to move on while she will take over.If things don't work as planned she is going to re-strategies, she will do all she can to separate him from Nuella so that she will come in.Carefully, she started to pull off his sui
On the second day of the court hearing, a palpable tension filled the air as everyone gathered at the courthouse. The courtroom was noticeably more crowded than the previous day, with a sense of anticipation hanging over the proceedings.Oliver, who had been through a tumultuous journey in recent times, stood alongside his family, who had come to support him during Nuella’s court hearing; he was glad that during this period of her being in prison they were able to hide everything from Alicia. Nuella was able to talk to Alicia everyday since she was provided with a cell phone while in jail.The persecutor and the lawyer arrived at the courtJena and the others arrived, Jena looked around and was so glad that Cassandra did not come. Her not coming also proved that she isn’t really what she claims to be, she is a snake. She knows that Nuella will be found guilty, which is why she did not want to be here to witness her victory.Amongst the people that were there was also Alison and Alex.
“Yes she has”The whole court murmured amongst themselvesNuella was surprised by her statement, she tried to think about what she said but couldn’t remember ever doing something to hurt Grace. The first time she met Grace was when she had come with Cassandra to the company during a meeting. “Mrs Haywood, do you know her?” “No I don’t” Nuella said in sincerity“Miss Grace, could you kindly tell this court how Mrs Haywood has offended you?”Grace stood before the courtroom, her voice trembling as she recounted a painful memory. She took a deep breath and began to narrate how Mrs Nuella Haywood had deeply offended her."I met Mrs. Haywood during my time at the university in country B," Grace began, her eyes fixed on the judge and the attentive jury. "I had just started my studies, and I was struggling to make ends meet. I had run out of money and was desperately in need of something to eat. At that time, Mrs. Haywood was pursuing her master's degree."Grace's voice quivered with emoti
Two week later The whole of H city was no longer talking about the Haywood’s or the Armstrong’s and the issue surrounding them.It’s been two whole weeks since the court case and Nuella has gone back to her normal life but she took it upon herself today to visit Grace, Cassandra’s secretary in prison today.Nuella and Oliver arrived at the women prison“Do you want me to come with you?” Oliver asked “There will be no need, I will just go in and see her then we can go pick up Alicia together in grandfather's house”“Okay but be careful” he said while holding her hand Nuella smiled “With the number of guards you have in there ofcourse nothing will happen to me”“I know but still” Nuella understood what he meant and nodded “I will be going now”Oliver nodded Nuella came down from the car and headed towards the prison entrance. Oliver kept his eyes on her until she entered the prison walls.Nuella was brought to the place where she is to see Grace. She sat down in front of the transp
