41. A legal notice
Last Updated:
2025-01-04 18:00:52Although it had not been that long since we last met, it felt like ages ago that the episode at his office unfolded. The man that I saw that day was different from the man that was standing before me now. He was confident yet receptive, angry but willing to listen, but today, he was none of those things. Today, he was cold. He had an invisible wall around himself beyond which nobody had any access.
When I first walked into the room with Enzo, Calvin was already present there with his lawyer. I gave him a small nod of acknowledgement, but his face remained stoic. He revealed no feelings whatsoever, and that surprised me. I didn't understand what was in his head, but I decided to not pay much thought to it and just let the meeting begin. As both of our lawyers spoke to each other, I watched him closely and realized how well he was avoiding me. He wouldn’t once look into my eyes. It almost felt like he was punishing me for something, as though he had no remorse over

As I looked sideways, I realized that Enzo was equally astonished with what Calvin was saying. Safe to say, he didn’t see this coming either. “What do you mean?” He said, “You don't-“ “My client does not wish to speak about this any further.” Calvin’s lawyer spoke, “As he said, we will see you in court.” With that said, both the men walked out of the room, without Calvin as much as sparing a glance at me. Suddenly, everything went blank. My mind froze, and I couldn’t process anything. The room started spinning, and I felt dizzy. My heart pounded in my chest, then a high-pitched ringing took over.I felt Enzo tap my shoulder, but I couldn’t look at him. I was too disoriented to react. I realized I couldn’t breathe and started gasping for air.“Cassie!’ I heard Enzo’s alarmed voice. I tried to look at face, but the world before me quickly became dark. I felt myself losing balance, my feet turning to jelly. I expected to hit the ground, but something soft caught me. My waist and s

Cassie's POV "I'll get the car. Please wait here." Enzo said before leaving me in the parking lot. I was waiting for his car to arrive when I saw a black Audi come toward me. I recognized that car instantly. It belonged to Calvin! I decided to stop him. Suddenly, I stepped in front of it. Soon the car came to a halt. I walked to the driver's side as he brought the window down. "Cassie! What the hell are you doing? Get out of my path!" "Why are you doing this, Calvin? What is wrong with you?""I made a mistake when I married you, Cassie! You're so shameless and disgusting! I am correcting my mistake now. I should have never tied the knot with you!" "Wow, so you've directly sent me a divorce notice? And as if that wasn't enough, you're suing me for murder? Are you for real? You know I didn't kill her!" I screamed."You're insufferable! I don't know why I married you! How can you still lie about everything when the truth is out?" "What truth? You're being fed lies, Calvin! The tru

Enzo’s POVThe next morning, I didn’t catch sight of Cassie in the kitchen or the living room as I usually would.I cooked some breakfast for the both of us hoping that she would join me, but she remained inside her room. Realizing that she needed her time and space, I decided not to disturb her. Leaving her breakfast on the dining table, I left the house and headed to the office. I was going to have a tough and hectic day at work today, having to work with a short time frame to solve the case for Cassie. Her trial notice came out of the blue and I was rather unprepared. My prior commitments have demanded my attention at work. But ever since I reunited with Cassie, her matters have always been my top priority. As soon as I arrived at work, I called my associate Mark and asked him to come into my office. I’d already assigned him some work regarding the case yesterday night and asked him to take the help of a paralegal if he needed to for his research. Since Cassie couldn’t get any ev

Cassie’s POVI opened my email again. I realized that it was empty again. It was the fifth time that I was doing this today. And yet, I did not receive any email.I was waiting for an email from my dad. It had been weeks since I spoke to him. I had sent him countless emails in the meanwhile, expecting that he would reply to at least one, but he didn’t. He was busy with his treatment, but I couldn’t understand what could be so serious about his condition that he couldn’t even spare a second to talk to me.I was well aware that he was in touch with his legal team here as they ha

I widened my eyes. His interpretation took me aback. “That’s not true. You are my friend, and you have a place in my life. In fact, you have a very special place. But you can’t do everything for me.”“Why? We spoke about this so many times!" he said, "You’re the reason I’m alive. I am always indebted to you."“That’s not fair. You shouldn’t have to feel the obligation-” “But you are my friend, Cassie, and you mean a lot to me. I will help you if you’re in trouble. Just like you helped me in the past.”When he put it like that, I couldn't say anything. “Please let me do my job, Cassie. I won’t let anything happen to you. In fact, I come bearing good news.” Frowning, I wiped my tears away. Clearing my throat, I turned in my seat to face him properly. “What are you talking about?” “Our case.” He said, “We’ve found some great leads and we’ve spent the entire day following it, and we’ve managed to build a great case for tomorrow. Safe to say, you need not worry about anything. We’ve go

Calvin’s POVUpon Becky’s idea, I decided to come to this stupid pub. I was not even in the mood for it, but she forced me. She even invited my friends to come to the party so that I could have fun. But ever since I arrived, nothing has changed. I was still upset with everything that was happening around. Somehow, I couldn't keep my mind off the case tomorrow. I was anxious about it. “Calvin, come on!” My friend Jonathan said, “Why do you look like that? You’re finally going to get rid of your dumb wife. Aren’t you glad? You should be celebrating.” He was right. I should be celebrating, but I wasn’t. I was too sullen. Thank god, Becky wasn’t around, or else, she would have felt bad seeing me like this. She really wanted me to have fun today. “I don’t know, man. I can’t seem to have fun anymore.” “Well, look over there. There’s a hot chick right there. Maybe she can cheer you up?” Following his eyes, I looked toward the dance floor. I spotted the woman he was referring to but her

Cassie's POVThe atmosphere inside the court was cold and quiet. Despite the chilly weather, I could feel myself getting clammy in my palms, having to constantly wipe them clean against my pants. For the past half hour, Enzo and his associate Mark have been counselling me as to how to answer the attorney’s questions, and no matter what, I should not lie to make up for any slip of the tongue. “We have everything we need, and if we can keep the tide in our favour, there is no way we’re losing this case.” Enzo said, “Be confident, Cassie. You have done nothing wrong, so let the judge see that.” I kept repeating his words in my head until my thoughts were interrupted by the arrival of the judge. As soon as my eyes recognized him, my breath hitched in my throat. Enzo didn’t miss my reaction to him, so he quickly turned toward me and asked, “What’s wrong?” “That man..” I said, “He’s George Halsted, right?” “Yes.” Enzo replied, “That’s the judge. What’s wrong?” “He.. he’s our biggest r

I widened my eyes in surprise. This was golden. How did he manage to get his hands on those documents? Becky looked toward Calvin in helplessness, and Calvin seemed equally surprised with it. He didn’t see that one coming either. If I were to guess right, he had no idea that Becky was drunk that night. “I.. the documents are not true..” Becky said.“Not true?” Enzo said, “We’re talking about Westwood Hospital, which is the largest and most renowned hospital group in the country. Are you trying to say their basic studies of blood alcohol levels are untrue? That’s going to be another lawsuit in itself then.” “I.. but I wasn’t the one driving that day!” Becky said. “How does it matter what I drank? Maybe someone spiked the drink.” “Right, that’s where I want to bring in this file, which reports the survey of the vehicle after the accident. Since there is no CCTV footage available, our best shot at determining who was driving the car that night would be this report, which claims that

But it slipped away from my hand just as quickly.Suddenly, I heard the noise of the door opening. Someone walked in. Cassie didn’t miss that either.She jumped from my body at once and scrambled to her feet. Smoothening her dress, she tried to regain her composure. I stared at her in astonishment, cursing at the intruder.Bloody hell, I was so close! Who the hell interrupted us?

I pressed the power button but it didn’t restart. I frowned. What was the problem? I tried to reboot the system once again but it didn’t help. Annoyed, I banged on the machine so it would work. But it didn’t help. I was going to do that once again when a hand reached toward it from behind me. I turned around to see Enzo appear. He grabbed the wires and did something. All of a sudden, the machine started working again. My face flushed. Clamping her eyes shut, I started speaking. “Sorry,” I muttered and watched the papers stack up once again. “What are those papers?” He asked. “A code.” I put them all in a while and was about to leave. His arm came forward to block my path. I looked up at him in puzzlement. “I need to speak to you.” I turned to face him. “Yes?” He let out a sigh and looked away from me. “Where were

Enzo’s POVIt was past ten o’clock but Cassie still didn’t come home. Where was she? After lunch, I did not see her. Even while leaving, the receptionist informed me that Cassie had left work at six thirty. I assumed that she had gone home without me. I was wrong. When I came home, there was no one.I realized she must have gone to see Calvin since she was expecting him today. Angry, I decided not to call her.I cooked dinner for myself and ate it alone. The clock struck eleven when I was done cleaing up after myself. I was getting worried now. Where the hell was she? As I looked out the window, I noticed that the rain increased. There was a storm outside. I could barely see anything. Could Cassie be stuck somewhere? Maybe she needed my help.Sighing, I quickly grabbed my phone and called her. It rang three times before going to voicemail. I frowned. Why was she cutting my calls? Before I could dial her number again, I heard the door open. A sigh left my chest. Cassie finally arrived

Cassie’s POVEnzo came to join us for lunch, but once he saw me, he walked away.I did not understand why Enzo was behaving this way. Was he still angry with me? But no, it didn't look like anger. It looked like he was hurt. Like he was disappointed with me. But why? What have I done to hurt him? I had to make things right with him soon. Things couldn't be this way. I will talk to him tonight. For now, I will let him walk away. The rest of the lunch was boring with Enzo. I remained a mute spectator. I was hardly interested in what everyone had to say. After lunch, I found a disappointing email waiting for me at my desk. ‘I can’t come to the office. I’m too busy. Meet me at Millard’s cafe at 7 pm. I will be waiting for you there.’ - Calvin Anderson. I sighed. So he was not coming. The entire day I was waiting anxiously for his arrival. All of it for nothing!‘Thanks for the heads up. I would have appreciated it if you told me this earlier. I had other things to do.’ - Cassie Harp

Enzo’s POV “You did what?” Leo’s voice boomed into the phone. I winced, pulling the phone away from my face for a brief second. “Yeah, you heard me.” “Wait a minute,” He said, “She made a small mistake in the document and you scolded her for that in front of everyone? Man, what is wrong with you?” “I don’t know, Leo.” I said, massaging my temples. “It’s just that… the case was important to me. And I was already in a bad mood since morning. Losing the client added to the injury. Out of anger, I dumped all my frustrations on her. And now I regret it.” “You better regret it, Enzo. This is the last thing you should be doing to a woman you fancy. I mean, she’s probably never going to talk to you after this. There go your chances of wooing her.” I widened my eyes. Was he right? Did I permanently blow my chances?“Shit, Leo. I made a huge mistake.” I said, “What do I do now? What if she never talks to me ever?”“You can find out by one way. And that is by apologizing to her.” “Apologi

I gritted my teeth in anger. The things she could say! This woman had no control over her mouth.“What?” Emma asked, perplexed.“It’s true. Did Cassie not tell you guys?” Becky said. “She married my boyfriend when I went into a coma. She was married to him for three years, keeping him under her lies. But of course, how long can a person lie? Her truth came out and her husband left her to get back with me. Poor Cassie got a divorce and she can’t see us happy. So now, she’s trying to break our relationship once again.”“Shut up, Becky.” I said, “You’re spewing lies and trying to ruin my life all the time. Have you got no shame?”

I scrambled to my feet nervously. Trailing behind him was Patrick and he looked equally disturbed. I had no idea why they looked so angry.Enzo slapped a file on my desk. When I looked at it, I realized that it was Harris Gerald’s case file. Frowning, I looked up at him.“Enzo, what’s the matter?” I asked.“You’re asking me?” He scoffed, “Open that file and look at it for yourself.”I grabbed the file at once and flipped through its pages. A certain page caught my attention, as it was struck off with a red ink. I quickly started reading it and soon, I realized the blunder I had made in it. I couldn’t believe it. How did I miss something so
