“Court is adjourned.” The judge said, which was followed by a bang of the gavel, ending the procedure.

Sabrina still can't believe it.

Who knew that her ex-best friend's brother was the key to taking the top position in the case again.

The prosecutor and the judge seemed to be really convinced that Shawn's company was the victim during this trial and just to be clear, he really was.

If only she hadn't heard everything that Josh's brother have confessed, she would most likely be boasting about her contributions by now.

“Sabrina?” Tapped a Happy, Shawn, startling her out of her thoughts. “I think we're getting back on track again. Thank you.” He added, genuinely looking at her with nothing but gratitude.

It's true that they're all working in this together, and it's all of them that he should be thanking.

But he knew that Sabrina's very well manipulation, and convincing skills were a big contributor to their success.

“Yeah, it's whatever. It's my job anyway.” Replied Sabrina laconicall

    “Where's the reservation again, Mr. Lewis?” Asked Shawn, in a gentle manner, walking the older man outside the Turner Organization building.Mason Lewis. One of the biggest names in the technology business in the entire Country. He was originally from Texas, and he was just in the City of Denver for business.He and Shawn invested on a new technology 2 years ago and let's just say that everything went spontaneous.The product got sold out within a month of its release and they, with the other people, who also invested into it got some pretty decent numbers.And yes, that's the reason he's here.“The first party is going to hold at their company, there will be a lot of people in there. That includes, Customers, workers, and everyone else who had something to do with it. The After-party, on the other hand, will be held at the Hilton's place.” Mr. Lewis said.“Oh, well, that settles it.” Said Shawn as they both stopped walking when they were outside the gigantic building.“Yeah, are you b

    “Sabrina, I don't think we're supposed to be here.” Shawn said worried, as he followed his lawyer to an empty corridor inside the Hilton's house.“Yes we are,” She said, turning around to look at him. “Just follow me.” She added going back her way.Shawn had a lot of questions but looking at he's so-called lawyer, he decided to just save them for later.He just did what this nymph told him to do while occasionally checking her out.Blonde, brunette, black, she really could pull it off.“You want to know why I'm here?” She offered after a few minutes of walking in pure silence, thinking that her previous response was a little rude.“Oh, I've been dying to.” He replied, as he followed Sabrina, who unlocked and entered one of the rooms in the corridor with the gloves that she was wearing.“I think Hilton's connected to the case.” She said, closing the door behind them.“You're kidding.” He said as he let her wrap his hands with a pair of of gloves.“I wish I am,” She said. “But I'm not.”

    “Sabrina, this is ridiculous. I'm not ten, and it's not like you're my mom!” Complained Aria as they sat at the extra bedroom in Sabrina's apartment.Turns out she wasn't kidding at all.She did treat them like little tykes.Glaring at Aria who rolled her eyes, Sabrina's gaze landed on Scott who was looking as guilty as ever.She glared at him.She doesn't know how he got into this, but she's sure that he could have done something to stop the two lunatics if he wanted to.But he didn't.He chose to be a part of their scavenging adventure instead.“Don't look at me, I got dragged into this. I was only there because Aria said so.” He defended, raising both of his hands in the air.Sabrina scoffed at that.“Oh, so if Aria told you to go to hell, would you grab a shovel and started digging your way in?” Sassed Sabrina as Aria and Maddy snorted.Wanting to be taken seriously, Shawn turned around to stop himself from laughing at the hilarious yet, true remark, reminding himself that this was

    “So,” said Mason Ross, pouring himself a drink, looking at the girl that he just meet in front of him. “What brings you here, Ms. Watson?” He added with curiosity evident on his voice.“Bloody Business.” Answered Sabrina, not daring to say anything more.One particular reason why she's so good with men is because she's the observant type.She doesn't just jump on doing some very typical things and stereotypes that she assumed they would like to get them wrapped all around her pinky finger.Men have their personal preference too.Some wanted their partner to be submissive, while others want their ladies to be dominant.The variation just goes on and on.“Business?” Parroted Mason as if he didn't hear her loud and clear, as Sabrina hummed in response.“I'm collaborating with Mr. Jacob Hilton.” She replied, leaning back in the couch of the VIP booth that Mason lead her too.She knew that Mason and Jacob knew each other.Apart from the fact that she basically just saw his name repeated in

    “Aria!” Whisper yelled Sabrina to her unconscious cousin on the couch. Aria groaned at that.“I know, Sabrina. I left the room, I'm in trouble I totally get it but please, I want to sleep. Scott and Madeline basically took over the queen size bed.” Said the brunette sleepily, turning to her side to avoid her annoying cousin with her eyes still closed.She knew that she's in trouble, but she can't stand spending any more time in a room with Madeline and Scott alone.Waking up has always been a total bummer to her.She literally would sleep 9 in the evening and feel so moody being woken up at 8 in the morning.If she's allowed, she would basically sleep twenty-four hours straight.“No, Aria!” Spoke Sabrina quietly, but in a quite aggressive manner. “It's just- I need to talk to you about something.” She added, sitting on the couch with a serious expression.“Really?!” Complained Aria, sitting back up aggressively. “It's like 4 am right now. We'll talk tomorrow, go back to sleep.” She ad

    At the age of five, kids would be in kindergarten, learning the basics of reading and counting.Their EQ and IQ would be put to the test in that little facility and sometimes, they would occasionally compete to draw or to count ladybugs.Unfortunately for them, Sabrina crushed all the ladybugs in kindergarten.At the age of two, when other kids were learning how to do the potty training, Sabrina was sitting in front of the piano learning every basic chord she can learn.At the age of five, Sabrina already developed remarkable skills in arguing with others, and had always won every argument that she ever has as other kids, on the other hand, were given the dictionary to expand their vocabulary skills.Now— Sabrina's not a super genius or something like that in any means.In her own words; She's just better than everyone.And that really stuck to her and followed her into adulthood.“What can't you do?” Murmured Ivan under his breath, impressed by Sabrina's hacking skills.After Sabrina

    “Everett, have you went through the files on the blue case? You know, the one that Scott and Igor gave me last week?” Asked Sabrina rapidly, looking at the pile of papers and other random objects in her dining table.Sabrina was right. They were near to winning the case.After getting the notice from the supreme court saying that they only have to stand 6 more trials, Sabrina was more than happy to work her ass off as fast as she can.If the evidences that they have toward Shawn's rivals were enough and Scott and Sabrina's convincing skills were excellent, chances are that they would be going home winning the case shouting “In your face bitch!” to Arnold and Dean as they make they their way outside the court swaying their asses off teasingly in the process.But of course, that satisfying thought of success would require hell of a lot of hard work.“Sabrina, let's take a break. We've been here for four hours straight, and I'm bloody exhausted!” Complained the British boy with his fancy

    When it comes to receiving presents from their lovers, some ladies would be glad to receive a bouquet of flowers while others, on the other hand, would be delighted to receive a box of chocolate as a gift.Now— both of those things are lovely.Sabrina's soul might be dark as a foggy night and her attitude might be as bitter as mate tea but, she also had an appreciation towards lovely and sweet things.But of course, those things were only applicable if her romantic life was normal.And the thing is, it's not.“You're the best!” Said Sabrina giving Shawn a peck on the cheek, taking more evidences towards Hilton, Dennis, and Roderick.It's true that Shawn was like one of the richest people in the entire state, but Sabrina too was rich, and impressing a rich girl isn't really that easy. Fortunately for him, she was his lawyer, and receiving additional information from him that she can use to court for the next trial impressed her more than any material object Shawn has brought her since

    When Mr. Clarke said that his daughter wouldn't reach thirty years old because of her reckless behavior, he couldn't be more right.Sabrina grew up as a curious child.And that curiousness had led her to breaking her bones, almost setting her classmate on fire, having her dad almost lose a ten million dollar contract, and many more.Sabrina vividly remembered that time when she was six, and she was curious about how her dad's convertible car transforms from a car with a roof, to no roof.She asked her brothers about it and all of them gave her the same answer.“It just works that way”Now— aside from Sabrina's curiousness, she was also adventurous.When she didn't get the answer that she wanted, she sneaked into her dad's car and tried to get the answers that could fill her curiousness herself.She was six that time and doesn't know anything about cars, and the first thing she did when she was inside it was press random buttons.Sabrina did found out how her dad's convertible work, bu

    “Shawn, this is Aria, do you copy?!” Said the familiar voice from the other line. “Turns out that Everett wanted all of us to die, and so he speeded towards the national park from the bar in like 2 minutes, and we just saw the car pass by, and we are now going after it. Repeat, this is a code red, over!” She added, copying the notorious dialogue from the Netflix hit series “Stranger things.”Ivan rolled his eyes at that.“Stop watching strange things!” Yelled Ivan from the other line, making Aria and Everett shudder from the loudness of his voice.“Aria, where are you now?” Asked Shawn, grabbing his phone from Everett's grasp.“We are— where are we?” Asked Aria on the other line.“I don't know! I'm not a local here!” Shawn heard Everett reply.“Just track my phone and follow our lead!” Yelled Aria as if he were talking to a deaf person before ending the call.“Ivan,” Called out to the Russian man as he kept his eyes on the road. “Track Aria Clarke's phone.” He added, as Ivan immediate

    “This doesn't seem like a place where kidnappers bring their preys,” Said Igor, looking at the glamorous bar packed with people in front of him.“You sure you're not schizophrenic?” Aria added looking at Ivan who was occupied scanning the place.After he told them that he knew where Sabrina was, Shawn immediately demanded him to bring them wherever the hell she is.But he wished he didn't.This was just another waste of time.Ivan has been so tired that he chose to lie to them just to get a break and have a good time.But instead of getting mad at Ivan, Shawn did the only thing that he have been doing since the blonde went missing.Blaming himself.“Ivan— look, I know that I've not been the nicest person within the last three days, and I'm sorry. If you want to have fun and get lost tonight, then fine, go ahead. You guys go ahead too, I'll just go home and—” Said Shawn, but he was quickly cut off by an annoyed Ivan who just snapped out of his thoughts.“No,” Said Ivan with annoyance d

    “Just make the fucking call, Everett!” Shouted Shawn angrily to the British lad, who was struggling to figure out whom he should call first.He was given a long list of people's unorganized numbers, and he was instructed to call them one by one, each.Having OCD, he finds it quite difficult to make the first call because he doesn't know whom to call first.And Shawn yelling at him angrily didn't help at all too.“I'm trying, Mate,” Everett said with his shaking hands, keeping his attention on the messy long list. “I'm trying.” He added, finally dialing one of the numbers, nervous that Shawn would yell at him again.It's been three days since Sabrina was declared missing, and Shawn has been like this ever since.

    Driving in the middle of the night is something that Sabrina has gone used to.And no— it didn't start when her life became like a real life roller coaster because she became a lawyer.It was already a habit.Before she even got her junior driver's license, she had been sneaking out late at night “Borrowing” her father's cars and driving it around the city.It's mostly the convertibles that she take with her because there's just something about hitting the road as the cold breeze of the night lingers in her skin that makes her feel free.And unlike the other mischief that she had done, she never got caught.She would drive and sometimes— almost even crash her father's precious cars and go home pretending like nothing even happened.She's bad, but she's so good with it.After being disturbed from her make-out session with her boyfriend, Sabrina was now speeding towards her workplace to where one of her client, James Gibbons, wanted to meet her.He said that he wanted to talk to her abo

    It's over.The legal battle is over.They won.This is the moment that Shawn has been waiting for.After the judge banged the gavel, the invisible weight on his shoulder flew away like a balloon.The case is now closed, and he was declared not guilty, which means he (Or his company) isn't going to face any charges.Ever since all the case started, he had this massive idea on how his victory party is going to be like.There would be music, dancing, Champagne bottles popping everywhere, and a lot of people.But now that it has finally come, he can't even make himself to start the preparations.A lot of stuff transpired the other night, and he was still furious.Scott and Sabrina still represented him and his company's name in court, and he was actually surprised on how much of a good actor they were.The both of them acted like none of the things that happened the other night ever happened.But it's certainly obvious that Scott looked embarrassed and ashamed the entire trial, with his f

    “You assholes!” Shouted Sabrina angrily to the three bastards that were cheerfully throwing snow balls at her in a constant fast pace.It was the twenty-fourth of December, and Sabrina agreed to spend the holidays with Shawn's family in Minnesota.They have this massive mansion located in an isolated village that can hold like a thousand people.It was so gigantic that almost all of Shawn's relatives were there to spend Christmas. Considering the fact that her brothers and her father weren't even in the state and also to avoid being a lonely Grinch during the holidays, Sabrina accepted Shawn's invite.Shawn's family were the warmest people that she ever meet her entire life to say the least.The kids were the fun version of angels, and the older people were so kind.One of them even offered her to take her room for the night if she would rather not share a bed with Shawn.To which she obviously refused, of course.Aside from the fact that it was just causally selfish, Sabrina really
