Ella walked hurriedly to her father black mercedes that was parked outside the building.She jumped into the back and slammed the door shut.Her father jumped into the passenger and her fake mother sat next to her. Her fake mother cuddled her for a bit but after a while Ella shrugged her off. She was tired and just wanted to go home and sleep. As soon as they reached the hotel, Ella wished them a good night and closed her door behind her.She slid down onto the floor and sobbed like a wounded child. Placing her head between her knees and leaning against the door, she broke down. She wondered if she could make it through the next hearing. She back tracked to their statements and wondered if she had really known her boyfriend. They had grown up together, she felt she had deserved to be loved by him, but instead a he did was lie to her. His love was a lie.Everything was fake. He was a fake. It was still early, the sun had just begun to set in the far west. She knew her father would
Was she now becoming mentally ill?Ella did not want to analyze her dream any further. She decided to ignore the realistic dream and go back to sleep.She wondered if it was Bobby or Brook tapping into her subconscious.It was most likely to be Brook but she didn't want to speculate.The rays of sun fe on Ella's cheeks like morning dew and her cheeks felt warm.She opened her eyes slowly, letting her eyes adjust to the brightness.She had already forgotten about her dream and got ready to have breakfast.Since she did not have supper last night, she felt as if she was starving.She met her father and fake mother at the dinning room and took a seat with them.As they ate their muffins and enjoyed a cup of coffee, a sheriff barged in and disturbed their morning banter."Miss Woods?" He asked holding an envelope in his hands.Ella raised her hand slightly and he handed her the envelope." Sign here."Ella signed the document and started to open the big brown envelope.Her eyes widened and
" Mr Trex. You have come here to do a job. You have done it now please leave." Patrick growled. His eyes grew a misty black and his sharp warewolf teeth began to protrude from his mouth." I.....I......I....am sorry." He stuttered. He was so scared that the front of his pants became soaked with urine.He looked at the bush in the far end of the garden. There was something there that made Ella suspicious. Ella found this man repulsive. Ella walked over to the bush and to her surprise there sitting in between the shrubs was a male journalist hiding in the bushes with his camera rolling. This was planned by Brook. She was the only person who would go to such extreme lengths to get what she wants. She was a totally evil, conniving b****. She wondered how people like Brook, lived with themselves.Ella was angry. She grabbed the man by the ear and twisted it, dragging him out from the bushes.She hurried on his feet, pleading and begging Ella to let go. For a rather slender woman, she w
" I would like to meet this afternoon, once I have the results. I am free around six o clock this evening." Mrs Sting proposed."That is perfect. We will see you at six!" Ella replied.She looked at the time and it was still early in the day. There was atleast four hours more until they left to the district attorney's office.A knock on the door caught her attention."Ella dear. You sped off in a frenzy. What's going on?" Patrick Ray asked as he walked through the door with her fake mother in tow." I just got off the phone with the district attorney. She is going to get the results of the DNA test. She said we should meet her at her office at six o clock. We have been subpoenaed by Bobby and Brook's lawyer which isn't good. This means that they want to prove their theory and clear their names." Ella said in almost one breath."Ella , we have our own lawyer." Patrick replied as he took a seat on the bed next to her."Yes dad. But that doesn't help us. We can't just go into court with
As promised, Patrick Ray went back to Palm beach and brought Ella's documents. He had picked up photos and documents addressed to Ella Woods with his home address.As soon as he returned to Salt Rock he went straight to the district attorney's office and dropped off all the evidence she needed.He signed of on the document to get Summer's call records and now he knew they were all set for Monday's trial.Mrs Sting thanked him. She placed all the paper work in a folder.Ella waited for her father to return. " Dad. There was evidence of Bobby at the park. But Brook? How do I tie her to the crime?"Patrick held his daughter in a tight embrace," don't you worry honey. Everything will fall into place."Monday now approached and Ella hurriedly dressed up. She had slept in late, having the same dream over and over about Bobby and officer Duke. She wondered if she was marked and did a quick check. There was no marking on her. She wondered why she kept on feeling drawn to officer Duke. Was she
Ella nodded," yes, your honour. I am aware. I have been aware of this all my life, since I was five years old."The judge nodded in acknowledgement and picked up the tape." And this is?""Your honour. This is a tape that was confiscated by Miss Woods from a journalist." Mrs Sting said boldly.The judge handed it to the policeman who put it on to play.Everyone watched on the small television in the courtroom.Everyone gasped loudly and the jury started to discuss amongst themselves." This was clear tampering with evidence by your client, Mrs Freeman. It will be added to her charges." The judge banged her gavel on the table to silence the room." Do you have anymore questions for Miss Woods?"Mrs Freeman shook her head. She looked like a fool and shot daggers at Brook. If she wasn't good friends with Captain Wilds she would have never taken on this case. She knew it was a losing battle. She had known Brook all her life and was even her god mother. She knew Brook was a spoilt little bra
" Objection. Your honour. She is harassing my client." Mrs Freeman intervened."Sustained. Mrs Sting. No more questions for the accused. You will have to wait for when he takes the stand again.", The judge explained." Do you have anymore questions for Mrs Ray?"" No your honour. That will be it!" Mrs Sting sat down."Mrs Freeman. Do you wish to ask Mrs Ray anything related to the case before she is dismissed?" The judge looked at Mrs Freeman."Yes." Mrs Freeman said as she walked up to Mrs Ray ." How do we know that you didn't do it? She could have come home by herself and you two could have argued and you attacked her. Maybe deep down inside you wished you were young again. Your husband left you. You envied your own daughter. She had her youth and she had a long life ahead. Your jealousy got to you and when you saw Bobby take her to the ball it stabbed you in the heart. You wished that it was you. So when she returned home you attacked her. You beat her and when you finally realised
The boy that looked similar to Bobby was now in the witness box." Please can you tell us the events of the night?" Mrs Sting questioned him." On that night , I was standing at the back of the hall. I saw some kid spike the punch. Mrs Summer Ray was about to pour herself a cup and I decided to drop some leaves in the bowl. I greeted her and she was so polite. She seemed like a genuinely caring person.""And you derived that from just a greeting?" Mrs Sting asked."No. We had a small conversation until Mt Style's had finished his dance with Miss Wilds. I excused myself and stood a few feet away , waiting for my date, Miss Jess. One of Miss Wilds friends.Mr Style's spoke to miss Ray for a short while before leaving. I watched as miss Ray trailed behind him. They both made their way to the toilet area. I watched Mr Style's exit the bathroom and go backstage. I found it rather odd that he did not wait for his date.Jess had joined me with Tess and Flynn, they had all come from backstage
