Until she met him 161. Evidence
The day for the court appearance finally arrived and everyone was ready for the outcome of the trial because that trial was the most trending issue in the country and beyond. It was always on the front of news papers and the topic of discussion in every morning show. All the other witnesses the prosecution brought up didn’t come up with any discriminating evidence against Ken Li. The accused, Ken Li who was seating proudly and unbothered by the entire court proceedings, he turned to wink at Alexander in a mocking manner. That day was supposed to be the last day of the trial and Ken and his lawyers have been jubilating because of the lack of prosecution to produce proper evidence.Alexander kept a stoic expression making Ken Li laugh out loud happily and throw his head back in laughter. He was glad when Adam wasn’t called to the stand because the prosecution couldn’t produce him to court, even him couldn’t find him. Adam was no where to be found. “Any other witnesses from the prosecut

Lawyer Prosper stood on his foot rather dramatically, brushed off imaginary dust from his clothes with both his left and right hands before proceeding ahead to announce his next witness with a proud smile plastered on his cunning face.“I will like to call on my next witness, let’s all welcome Miss Jane Li or should I say Miss Jane Miller,” Prosecutor Prosper exclaimed. Everyone turned to the door with conflicting feelings. Mutters could be heard all over the room and Ken Li sat paralyzed in his seat without the ability to even turn and have a look at the door. His earlier cocky behavior is proving be the end of his life right before his very eyes. “His daughter? His own daughter will testify against him in court?”.“How is that even possible? How bad could he be as a father that his own daughter would want to testify against him”.“I’m so surprised that the whole prosecution called on his daughter to testify against him and she accepted willingly. This man has got to be as bad as th

“That’s because I don’t consider someone who has raped me and degraded me since I was a kid a father!” Jane exclaimed loudly with a distasteful look at Ken who still refused to rise up his head and look at her since she walked in.The room was threw into an uproar that even the judge was too surprise at the information to make a movement or a sound.“Obj-object-objections my honor! This is simply hearsay. It is just speculations!”, Lawyer Victor objected passionately. “Objections sustained! Prosecutor Prosper do you have enough evidence to cover your claims?”, Judge Mona asked anxiously with eyes on Jane. She’s suddenly more than interested in the case. Having been a victim of rape herself, she felt very empathetic towards her but knowing she was raped at such a tender age by her own father made Mona’s heart go out to her.Jane didn’t move a muscle but her entire expression turned stoic and cold. She was thinking of everything again and the scenes unfolding through her mind. She wishe

Life didn’t go as planned after the trial was over, not for Jane and certainly not for Alexander. The media painted both Alexander and Jane as having an affair and made it look like that’s why Jane took the stand against her father. Others painted her as a prostitute and criminal but few saw her as what she was, a victim. Scandals after scandals, both Jane and Alexander didn’t give the media the needed attention and that caused an outrage amongst the media house.Hence the media took it further with scary narratives against Alexander accusing him of several crimes ranging from forging of documents to put Ken in jail and murder to planting evidence. It wasn’t until lawsuits started tripping in that the discovery was made that most of the media houses were under Ken Li’s payroll. Further investigations was made and secret bank accounts identified, they were all frozen and slowly the news died down.But life didn’t go back to normal for the Johnsons nor Jane Miller. Jane was always in th

It took more than thirty minutes for Jake to actually make an appearance in the hospital and he came fully prepared. He had all the information he needed on Aria Freeman before he drove to the hospital. He met Alexander pacing around in front of the theatre with his grandparents sitting of the lounge together whispering into each others ears with concern looks.Alexander lifted his eyes up and saw Jake walk towards him. He met him half way with ears eager for all the information he needed.“Jake, you said fifteen minutes but it’s more than thirty minutes now, I got worried when you were not even picking your calls. What kept you bro?”, Alexander muttered to him when they came into contact with each other. “I had to meet Bismarck for the information you wanted about Aria. What’s going on? How’s Ally doing?”, Jake asked when they were doing their handshake.“They are still in surgery, I don’t fucking have an idea about what is happening in there.” Alexander said angrily, he had almost f

“Took you long enough! I called you two even before I left the house to meet Bismarck.” Jake voiced out with a disapproval look. Philip and Richard didn’t seem the least bothered by the disapproval look he was sending them.“I had to go pick Richard from his movie set. You should applaud us for making a two hours journey in less than an hour. Anyways, who are you killing Alexander so we can sharpen our knives and follow prompt.” Philip declared with a quick glance at the annoyed looking Alexander. Richard nodded in response to what Philip voiced out whilst taking a bite of the cookie he was holding.“Yes Alexander, who has annoyed you this bad? I can’t remember the last time you looked this angry but first things first, how’s Alice?.” Richard mentioned after swallowing his last bite of his cookies. He was truly hungry before they left the set in a hurry before their food arrived on the set hence he had to settle for cookies and a milk shake on their way over to the hospital.“Where’s A

Alice sent him a grateful look before clearing her throat, “What are those pictures Alexander? Who is she? I want to know everything”, Alice asked. Alexander swallowed hard and nodded his head. Last time he'd seen Aria Freeman was one of the worst night of his life. That experience had scarred him since that night and he looking forward to never meeting her. His first thought was how embarrassed she felt because she avoided eye contact with him. She was avoiding his glance like batteries with their matching poles held together, how their gazes just can't quite meet up and slide rapidly away from each other, but he can't find a wording for the tension between them. He knew there's got to be something to do to make everything better, but he can't quite get it to come together.“Her name is Aria Freeman, she was my junior in the university. I knew her before school, in fact I knew her since we were kids. Her mother was my mom’s best friend so they often make visits to our house. She used

Days in and out, Alice’s anxiety to see her child increased each day and night till it may appear as if she was going into depression or separation anxiety. This morning wasn’t an exception, she was complaining bitterly and was flaring a bit because aside being kept in bed and not allowed to move around, they’ve totally refused to bring the baby to her making her feel like maybe, just maybe the baby didn’t make it and they couldn’t tell her hence she was thrown into a depressed mood.“Why can’t I see her?! It’s been three weeks already! Three fucking weeks Alex! And I don’t even know what my daughter looks like. My wounds are all healed up and I can now move freely than before. Why does it seem like you are all preventing me from seeing her? I just want to see her!”, she whined angrily to Alexander who just returned from dropping the kids at home.“Calm down babe, the baby is doing fine and has gained more weight over the past days.”, he reassured her slowly.“Then why can’t I see her?

Diane didn’t want to leave the grave yard, she didn’t want to leave her baby alone there and leave. She felt doing that meant abandoning her in that lonely place, she sat comfortably on the green grass beside Charlotte’s grave and refused to get up from there. The cemetery was empty apart from the four of them, Romeo couldn’t leave Diane either and Alexander and Alice couldn’t afford to leave them alone there. The workers hired had already filled the grave with soil and it wasn’t easy for Diane during that period, she had to be held tightly in a tight embrace by Romeo who wasn’t feeling any better than her but was rather finding strength in his grieving heart. It was an emotional rollercoaster for everyone present at the grave yard especially when Diane lay down on Charlotte’s grave in the rain, talking and whispering sweet nothings to her through the grave.

Getting to know of how she dead through a blunt force trauma to the head at the hands of her father was the most heartbreaking news reported.Alexander didn’t even know how the call with Jane ended that day nor did he realize he was crying until Alice shirt was drenched in his tears and his was drenched in her tears. Everyone present shed tears uncontrollably and Lilly literally broke down and haven’t been the same since that day. According to Jane’s source and a recording she sent to him over the phone that day, Robert Pint confined in a lady and was confessing to her in what seems to be a phone call. His voice could be heard to be hoarse and was obviously hyperventilating over the phone. He kept repeating,”I killed her!

Seeing their curiosity and anxiety, Alexander decided to put the call on speaker so everyone can hear what was going on with the call.“Hello? Alexander? You good? How’s Alice and the family doing? Oh! How’s grandma? I miss her asf! Did that Romeo guy contact you? There’s some developments in the case and he said he will tell you personally so I shouldn’t be the one to tell you. Did he tell you?”, Jane’s voice filled his ear drums and room with questions after questions making those present in the room giggle softly at how fast she was talking and asking the questions.“Everyone is fine and also extends their greetings to you guys and yeah the Romeo guy did contact me, in fact he just left here and that’s why I called you.” Alexander verbalized.“Mmm-that’s cool. What it is?”, she asked him curiously whilst cooing at the little baby in her arms. “We need your help”. Alexander stated with a hard look on his face as his mind wandered back to the issue of little Charlotte.Jane paused he

Jake smiled sadly and cleared his throat,”I think his problem wasn’t any of that but the fact that it was a man. He probably got drunk and did it with a man and is now beating himself up because he doesn’t know how to handle such a feeling.” He verbalized as everyone one nodded in understanding to what Jake muttered, only for that moment of understanding to be cut short by a hoarse voice.“I was the sober one but he was drunk!”, the hoarse voice of Richard echoed in the room as they all turned to face the direction of the voice. They were all baffled to see the two friends who fought barely a minute ago in each others arms. Richard was looking at them with red bloodshot eyes and Philip hugged him to himself tightly.Philip frowned deeply and push away from Richard slightly,”You were the sober one and he was the drunk one? Then why the heck were you playing the victim card for days now?! I mean you were literally rude to him since he got here because of what exactly?!”, Philip questione

An initial silence went through the room like a hurricane before the storm of their reaction followed. The chorus of their response was all in agreement with what Alexander suggested because she was apparently the best person they can all turn to in this tricky situation. She was also very much involved in the case as much as they were and wants to the truth to be revealed. They all came together for a common agreement on the plans and strategy for bringing down those powerful wicked men at the high places. The plan was simple per their agreement, Jane Li slash Jane Muller is supposed to be added to plan and Alexander was responsible for bringing her up to date with their plans and the solutions they put in place to achieve what they wanted.Then Jane was supposed to convince Robert Pint’s mistress to turn against him and bring her to their side by means of bribe or any other means possible. The amount of money and the luxuries were out of the world and they plan on granting all of th

“Well, I think I made a mistake by saying he was like my father because my father is better than him in some aspects, he is worse than a monster. Charlotte wasn’t born in the hospital but in the house because Diane is an illegal immigrant and hence she didn’t have her papers and let’s not forget that he hid her throughout her pregnancy so when she had to give birth, it was done in the house with his assistance. Charlotte is not in the system so if he kills and bury her right now, the world won’t know a thing about it nor will they ask questions. He never intended on marrying Diane until the cries of the baby got the attention of the neighbors and murmurs began going around in the community and raising alarm. He had no choice but to get married to her and make her a legalized citizen. So now they both know what he’s capable of and since Charlotte doesn’t technically exist, he can get away with killing her and leaving the only witness to be Diane who he also plans to kill and put an end

Alexander sat quietly in the couch and leaned back a bit as he observed both Richard and Romeo, especially their body language and facial expression. He turned quietly to glance at Philip who felt the hot gaze at the side of his face and turned to him. The two stared at each other for sometime before the light bulb light up in Alexander’s mind and recognition became evident to him. He gasped softly and turned to Richard in shock but before he could master the strength and confront him, Romeo cleared his throat loudly to get their attention.“Richard right? I don’t know what I’ve ever done to you since I came inside but I don’t do married women and I most certainly don’t do any woman. They are not exactly my mmm-preference, my name might be Romeo but I’m not like that Romeo in literature. I can proudly say I am my authentic self and I prefer the opposite of things he likes.” He verbalized and checked out Richard who was blushing openly like a school boy. Everyone in the room suddenly un

Romeo closed his eyes tightly and cussed out loud,”fuck it! I don’t want a word of any information I will be giving here, I don’t want it to leave this room. I can’t wait to be done with this fuck case because it is causing me a lot of headache and my morals! This is too draining and suffocating because for the first time, I’m now thorn between doing what is right, what is wrong and what feels right and sincerely speaking, I can’t decide which path I want to take.” Alexander turned around to face Alice then at the guys before he spoke on the behalf of all of them present in the room.“You have our word, whatever you say here, stays here with us and not a soul away from this group will hear the wind of it. This is my promise to you.” Alexander muttered to him with a sincere voice and soft nod. Romeo nodded unconsciously with his mind turning against him as he glance at them numbly. He took a deep breathe and just hoped from the button of his heart that he was about to do the right thin
