"Well, we'll work together then" John replied while wiggled his eyes staring at Diane, not forgetting to show his smirks.
"With one deal" Diane interrupted as he tried to stretch out his hand before he frown "-I want you to find a lawyer for me to handle my case, and there must be a victory, defence with the thoughts of a reliable Lawyer, I want you to find this best man in Chicago for me." now Diane tilted her head to see John's surprised facial expression while his eyes widened. Even though she knows that her husband is the best lawyer in Chicago, that everyone knows, but he should understand that if she wants this from him, means he knows that she is testing him to get her trust doesn't mean she's revealing that her relationship with her husband is not good, but she wants to say from a different side to be understood, even though this means he has to think between his best friend and himself in front of her, she wants to know how he works according to his own thoughts, sh
John pensive in his office room holding his cell phone sitting on a sofa in his office, he watched and scrolled his cell phone screen several times in his phone contacts, after glancing at the chair Diane had been sitting on many times he pressed the name of the lawyer where he was became a client at the law firm but he contacted his partner who was not someone he knew. That woman has something different that intrude on him in a different position, it is true that Ali said that she is a dangerous woman, not because of the tricks she made but the look on her face can make people lose their mind in one glance, about her request with her soft but firm voice makes him have to comply with all her requests, isn't that weird …? but he couldn't refuse it because his body seemed to be pushed on its own with the words affecting his mind right now, he too didn't think about the consequences what he already doing. "Mr. Gardner" John said after the person he called picked up quic
"We haven't seen each other in a long time, haven't we?" Victoria said with a raised eyebrow but Diane already knew where the conversation was going to try to make small talk to her just made Diane staring focus at her waiting the real conversation will come "-I heard that there are rumors that you will replace Director Firth position" "Yes, that's right" Diane answered, nodding at Victoria After showing a surprised face then changed it with a smirks expression of confidence made Victoria look away while sighed. “You are incredible. You are charged to be murder, but want to take the position of Director Firth easily-" now Victoria scoffed at Diane with her anticipated answer “-The prosecutor Roger Glynne is also incredible. But unfortunately, this time he will be in trouble.” she spat out moving forward toward her as she is nodding at Victoria with a proud smile as she stood tall. "Excuse Me !!." Victoria yelled with widened eyes looking at Diane icil
"Mary ... is the call for me that came in this morning ?" Kurt muttered asked his secretary when he was already in his law firm office and in front of his office room, staring at the clock on his wrist. "No sir, I mean Mr. Mcveigh, just an ordinary client that I have prepared a schedule for in the folder above your desk" Mary answered as she turned to Kurt who showed a lit cheerful expression that was not like his usual show In the morning view from his dazzling face. "What is he doing in our firm's office?!" Kurt's eyes thinned when he turned to Will's office room to see his partner chatting with someone he knew, whom he knew very well. “Do you mean Mr. Walker From CBS news company, I also don't know Mr. Mcveigh ... Mr.Gardner just wants his 11 o'clock schedule to be cleared for someone" Lily is Will secretary replied when she saw her friend Mary’s face gaping, not knowing what to answer. "Okay" Kurt nodded when his eyes couldn't turn to see the part
They just glare to each other in a moment before Will open his mouth but he closes it again, don't know where to start. Kurt just stared at him with a narrowed his face "he, he-" Will was silent again "did you not get a letter, a letter sent to your house ?!" Will ended up changing the topic so Kurt would understand first, but it seemed like he couldn't get what he meant. "What letter ??" Kurt replied senility as Will held his gaze made Will shakes his head with him pursed his lips. "Summons, trial, court at State Attorney, Kurt ..." Will finally spat out with irritation made Kurt face twists, he freeze expression started with hesitate at him "-God, you don't understand either ... your wife, she will be summoned to court for her first trial." Will grumbled as Kurt's mouth fell open and realized what he was missing. Gulping while lick his lips restlessly he looked at Will with his knit brows "I, I don't-," "I thought you were her lawyer, why don't you
Her cell phone ringing and vibrate several time made her open her eyes, biting her lip as she looked at the screen of her cell phone, the name that the person she was thinking right now about appeared right there, took her heavy breath slowly while closing her eyes several times and clearing her throat she finally picked up the phone with hesitate.“Di…" Kurt immediately greeted anxiously when Diane bit her lower lips holding back how impaled and weak her every time that man muttered her name from his sexy mouth, which was so appealing make her always wanted being honest to him. “Earlier this morning I heard from my judge friend, prosecutor Roger ...""I know." Diane closed her eyes once again trying to answer in a firm voice that did not falter because the person she was thinking about was none other than there was worrying about her restlessly. Diane deliberately, after reading the court summons letter that early morning, would not tell her husband
Diane parked her car before she got into a magnificent building, the second tallest building in Chicago. She walk in with her hands in her coat pockets because she felt the cold Chicago air in every part of her body. Diane walked towards the reception desk, she was a bit confused by the crowd here how the CEO here turned the building here into a condo as well as his workplace, even though some of the floors he arranged were very antique and neat but still according to Diane it looked like home-working ... luckily that’s evening Diane was wearing sunglasses and her scarf so people didn't really know and care about her, but again she had to face the interrogations of the receptionists people in front of her. "Can I help you, ma'am?" The woman in front of Diane said to greeted her, Diane glanced left and right before glancing at her by removing her glasses for a moment but putting them back on quickly "Nick Trevos, I want to-" haven't finished her words, the wom
Diane remained silent without showing any expression as Nick stood up from his chair and walked towards her "This will be a big deal" He raised his eyebrows as he continued "If everyone knows and for sure the newspapers and online media will make this their headline." He inference made Diane clench her fists tightly. "Is that's so !!" Diane rasped out after a minute, her voice hitching slightly as her jaw clenched. "if that's what you want then do it !!" Nick gulped, hearing the incredulity in her tone. She was pissed - there was no doubt about it. Where a passionate Diane Lockhart and fighting with her familiar resistance, now he only sees courage in deciding what has been said and shows he did not expect to receive this kind of response. This again, gave her a headache, she was tired done for today, no, not for today, but because the situation had not been resolved at all, and he ... the man before her was trying to mess with her life again by adding what was he co
Diane took a deep breath as she wiped the tears that were about to fall from her cheeks "Okay then, our business is finished just like that !!" she sneered at him after a moment of silence, turning to leave the room. "Hey!" he grabbed her wrist just as fast as she spun, turned her body slowly in front of him again. ‘no, we are business not done just like that’ Nick muttered in his though when he is looking at Diane teary eyes. Whatever the problem and the cause, even though he is selfish man, even though he is a moody person who seeks satisfaction, but still he is a man, a man who knows when to stop and step forward, and he also can't let and see the woman he loves in front of him like this … “Let me go, Nick!” she said steadily, both trying to calm her anger and hold her tears, avoiding confusing stares at Nick who was worried about her condition right now, she didn't nee

"I want a divorce from him Liz" she said as soon as Liz took her hand, Diane's voice was filled with despair that Liz had never heard before, and she glanced at her with a confused gaping yet worried look, wondering if the surprise she was saying was just a hallucination. Diane who she know, asking for a divorce from her husband, how is that possible? - "I feel... I've hurt him enough, I can't stand it anymore Liz sees him being hurt by myself..." Diane poured out her heart in a trembling whisper as she closed her eyes with tears as flowing out without her noticing "Are- are you serious...?" Liz tried to make her strong but she instead made Diane moan by whining to hold back her tears to flow more freely "Honestly, I don't even know..." she said in a crack voice "Right now I don't have a definite plan. I will deal with it first, and if I see a way out, I will try to reach it." Liz let out a heavy breath when gazing the woman in front of her "I'm so tired of all this
It'd be easy to just agree. It's always easier to just node and agree and believe. Maybe she should stop that. Maybe she should frown and ask. Maybe she shouldn't trust what he says, just because it comes out of his mouth. It's a problem. It's a big problem. It's easier than pointing out the obvious. It's always easier to avoid the problem. She shouldn't however. Just because she loves him, doesn't mean she should believe his gone. He makes them unbelievable. Maybe he wants her to say something. Maybe he knows she should stop him before and disagree. Maybe it's just a matter of time before he back again... or maybe he not gonna come back... Diane's head was spinning all around, Kurt had left a few minutes ago, with Diane sitting on the couch thinking wildly and now she seemed to be hallucinating hearing her door bang several times but the sound she heard was even more shocking, like the voice of her best friend- "Liz'" Diane mumbled in surpris
No one can replace you, your beautiful memories with you can pierce the darkness like sunlight. May the warmth of those rays warm our souls, always. A Family we form is a circle of love, not destroyed by loss, but strengthened by memories. Even though I may hold your hand for a while, but you hold my heart forever Diane... he’s kissing her cheek trying to make her cry stop.Diane immediately succumbed to the warmth, fell silent, and didn't know what to do. She fully realized that if she laughed it sounded ridiculous, felt her face turn slightly red, and cursed herself for feeling a little embarrassed. She swore that this was probably the most confusing situation she'd ever been in, and Kurt was enjoying it immensely.Kurt waited for his wife to smile as he tried to wipe away every tear that was flowing on her face with his finger, finally Diane sadly tried to smile because of her husband's smile
IF Peace is the beauty of life. for me It is sunshine, where is your beautiful smile appears, my love for you, the joy you give me, the togetherness of a human being. It is human progress, the victory of justice, the victory of truth when I am with you. Sometimes people like to confuse true love with ego, lust and insecurity. but I wasn't confused at that time with you. even Everything in your body is as precious as what I have, In torment and pain, it is still precious....Without hesitation, Kurt stepped towards the door of the car next to him where Diane was sitting before crossing the garden towards him, his long and fast legs only taking a few steps until his form was in front of his wife's figure, towering and forming shadows when people saw Diane as a woman who high in her circle with her husband she still looked up to stare at him focused."Kurt..." His wife's voice was soft and low. Her angelic voice and harmonies echoed through the cool breeze as the rain eas
Raindrops still wet the ground, dripping from the fresh and lush trees. The crescent moon, with its pale smile, hid behind the clouds as the stars disappeared as tears from another world took their place, along with this Diane fell silent as their car pulled up in their garage. Anticipating her feelings that would break the mood again, no she wouldn't do that again, that was enough, Ahh- she hates her emotions which are now quick changing rapidly....Diane directed her teary eyes towards the door of the house in their garage, emotionless… trying to feel this emotionlessly when her husband was next to her, breathing in a same room with him, maybe for the last time, she closed her eyes as the feeling in her chest hit her… tightness, and felt her heart clench as she recalled the days she and her husband shared happiness together. Kurt turned his eyes towards his wife who seemed to be shaking with both hands on her lap which she had held tightly to for a long time,
Love is like the wind. You can't see it, but you can feel it Diane, Having a place to go is home. Having someone to love is my family. Having both is a blessing for me and it is you in my life. It doesn't matter how big our problems and fights are, what matters is that I know there is love in them… Kurt’s gulping scanning his wife gesture."We both know that I am everything to you, Diane..." Kurt heard Diane sigh before looking at him with a fake smile"And I repeat, you are nothing." she said coldly but her voice sounded weak when Kurt raised his eyebrows not blinking his eyes with death stares.“Can't we only move if there is distance? And love each other when there is space? Love will bring two people closer together, but I doesn't want to suffocate, so I make it up to you Diane... I already-, I am-" Kurt said firmly but slowly when his voice pleading made Diane groan and close her eyes before Diane's lips twitched as she looked at
It's okay if we're not the best, at least we've tried even though in reality it can't be forced. But I know you are the best one for me Kurt... You are one of the many things that make me no longer friends with the word goodbye. Your presence is like an ocean in arid land, then how should I express my feelings right now which is also killing me slowly... Diane swallowed as she closed her eyes... I realized that all of it was connected with destiny. No one can control destiny, so I accept it, but behind all this because I really love you, my heartbeat is proof with every second you make for my life, you caught me in Bigger Love....There was silence for a long time... Diane was led by Kurt to his car, she balked when her husband wanted to carry her again, although she admits her legs still hurt but she didn't want to be a spectacle on the news station, and actually she was already a spectacle when Kurt hugged her tightly from the side so she doesn't slip again. Kurt o
You know I Love you, not just your body, but everything about you. So when you look tired that’s make me terrible hard, We are so busy growing up, we often forget they are also growing old my Love… The most beautiful thing in my world is to see your smiling, and knowing that you are the reason behind my smile, but why you don’t understand it… Happiness and sadness in my life will come and go. Every day I get to meet new people and part with old ones. Sometimes not all meetings can provide togetherness. Some even end in painful separations. Farewell... a kind of destiny that is always encountered by all human beings. It's sad to talk about separation, especially with loved ones, but I don't want that painful separation to happen to our lives, because you are everything to me… Kurt closed his eyes when his thought mad his heart want to burn in anger but worrying the most."Look, I'm fine... look at me Kurt, I'm fine..." Diane opened her
