CHAPTER 32

GAIA

Knowing how today was going to go got me shivering. My hands and feet were cold and my palms were sweaty. I could barely get any sleep at night because of how shaky I was.

Was I sure I could do this? There was something in me that made me doubt but I just had to kill it because I couldn't back out now.

As I walked in, the first person I saw was Jacob and Mark and some of the other men filling out one seat. They were here to make sure things went according to plan.

As if that was not enough, the media had been called in. I was sure that was the work of Upperman. He had asked that the media should cover the case so that the news of Javon being arrested for theft would be broadcast immediately.

Javon's lawyers were already here and I wanted this to be the final straw. The final day. Being that Clay was dead would be to my advantage but I didn't know how to bring that in yet.

Perhaps I could wait a bit and let it be an element of surprise.

His lawyers opened today's argument.
