CHAPTER 101

Selene's POV. My head was banging with various scenarios as my phone kept on ringing but Sean advised me not to pick up. I knew that he was doing it for my good but I couldn't help but feel like a bad person. Giselle was probably being tortured mercilessly for my sake and here I was hiding out like a coward. I didn't know what to do with my life. My assistant came towards me and looked at me sympathetically. "I'm sorry to say this but you look a mess, I know that this is probably way out of what I should normally say but I just feel like things could be done better. I don't know what exactly the problem is, but I just do not hope that this continues." She told me. This was another problem. Sean had advised me not to reveal the secrets to anyone because it could be used against me later on and I understood what he was trying to do. It was for my good anyway. "Do you need me to get you anything to drink or to calm yourself down?" She asked again, refusing to leave. The fact that s

CHAPTER 102

As soon as I got to my friend's bar, she climbed down from the stool, coming closer to me and hugging me tightly. "I am such a bad friend for not coming to visit you since your ordeal. I'm so sorry about everything that has happened and I believe that one way or the other will be able to fix it." She said, Wasn't that pretty much hilarious to think that when I needed her the most when she didn't show up? I was not even in the mood to engage in blame games and name calling. "I guess that's the beauty of life. As time goes on we get to see how people act even when there is no reason for them to be nice." I responded stylishly, hitting her below the belt. She disengaged from the hug and looked at me weirdly. "I am aware that this is pretty much directly at me but isn't it too harsh for someone you call a friend? I mean I only made one mistake and now I have to suffer throughout my lifetime for it? That is even worse than you would like to admit. I know that I have probably pissed you

CHAPTER 103

Selene's POV.My heart thundered in my rib cage as I rushed into the familiar building that I didn't think I could ever forget in my life. I had so many things to do but one of them that took the cake was to make sure that Jakob didn't die. No matter how problematic he could sound or we could act, I still wanted him to be very much alive and I was going to achieve that. My heart was pounding mercilessly but I refused to take it easy on myself. There were a lot of things to handle, I only hope that I was able to carry it out to the end. I saw Martha pacing around in the hospital lobby and my heart skipped a beat. Saying a silent prayer inwardly that this man didn't give up the ghost. He had been through a lot of shit in his entire life and I didn't want this to compound it What he didn't realize was that I was talking to Martha most of the time just to know his progress. I didn't entertain her advice anyway but even I knew deep down that I needed this man to be up and runningShe

CHAPTER 104

Jakob's POV. I woke up with a start also scanning the perimeter to see what was going on. I was in a hospital. When did I get here? The events of the previous night came rushing into my mind like a barrage and I placed my hands on my forehead to massage my temple. Mia walked in with a paper bag looking furious. Her countenance only changed when she saw me. "I didn't think you were going to wake up anytime soon so I ordered some clothes. I hope you do not mind." I believe twice trying to figure out what exactly the situation was that made her think that shopping was even more important to me than anything else in the world "You ordered clothes for yourself?" I raised a brow to get the full scope of the gist. She shook her head before taking a seat closer to me. "I know how this must look and everything but this is just you being paranoid. What I actually meant was that I had a meeting I wanted to represent you in so I ordered some clothes since you would not be present physically.

CHAPTER 105

Selene's POV."This is a case between Mr Fisher and Miss Selene in the case of a breach in medical practice." Judge Karen said as soon as he arrived in court. My head was banging with the implication of what this meant but I didn't want to waste my time or energy thinking of what could happen don't better instead of just taking life gently as it came. My mother has tried to convince me to let this case go but he needed to be taught a lesson so that the rest of the people could follow. If I didn't do this to him he would never know what exactly to do. "I think that anyone who wants to throw stones should not live in glass houses. My client here has never done anything against Miss Selene's father, she was given the wrong information and refused to confirm before running along with the news. It isn't my fault that she lost a huge part of the deal when it was taken to the lower Court." Mr Fisher's lawyer spoke. I parted my hair so that I looked very corporate when it was time to defe

CHAPTER 106

Author's POV. The courtroom air? Stale. Stiff. Like a morgue with better lighting. Dr. Fisher sits slumped. Tailored suit. Empty eyes. His lawyer, a slick weasel in pinstripes, adjusts his tie. 'Nervous'. Prosecutor Amelia Voss strides forward. Heels 'click-clack' like a ticking bomb. She slaps a file on the jury’s rail. Papers flutter. “Ladies. Gentlemen. This man”—she whirls, points at Fisher—“is no healer. He’s a 'chemist of death'.” The jury leans in. Fisher’s pen trembles. “Forged prescriptions. Falsified records. 'Profit over pulse'.” Voss tosses photos—bottles with smudged labels, scribbled dosages. “He didn’t 'mistreat' patients. He 'weaponized' them.” A juror gasps. Fisher’s lawyer stands. “Objection! Speculative—” “Overruled.” Judge Calloway’s voice grinds. Granite face. Ice-chip eyes. “Proceed, Ms. Voss.” She smiles. Feral. “Gladly.” ''' The witnesses come. A parade of ghosts. First: Mrs. Eliza Trent. Apron stained. Hands raw. “My husband… his arthritis

CHAPTER 107

Seline’s POV Yes! We did it. The joy of the victory I just got spread like wildfire in my body, I couldn’t contain it. The doors of the courtroom swung open and I stepped into the daylight. The sun, high in the sky, hit me with a blend of heat and severe brightness. I had to cover my eyes for a second to adjust to it. I opened my eyes to see a large number of crowd made up of people who Mr Fisher had unjustly robbed in the name of getting treatment in his hospital, and their families, journalists and news agencies all waiting patiently for the result. The moment they all sighted me, a sudden hush fell over them. Some had their palms joined together, mumbling words of prayers. Others simply held hands with or embraced their relatives in hope of good news. “We won!” I declared and the crowd erupted into cheers. Many couldn’t contain their tears and broke down. I held tightly unto the folder of legal documents close to my chest, an evidence of the justice I won for myself and ev

CHAPTER 108

Coming from someone who had waited so long to get answers I guess the taste of victory still lingard in my mouth as I tried to figure out what exactly the problem would be if I went on with my idea. Absolutely no one to support me besides myself and my persistent belief that I could do this. I didn't even bother about going on and on above the usual. I just waited and sealed deals from my office. Julie was my greatest supporter as she didn't miss a day to gas me up and tell me how amazing I was. This was the kind of person I wanted in my life who was going to always prove that there was a reason for me to always have sufficient people around. It wasn't going to change the fact that I was going to suffer to bring my vision to limelight even though I had a few agencies who wanted to mingle with me. I had to turn most of them down when I realized that their visions didn't tally with what they wanted me to do. It was always prohibited to mingle with such people as long as t

CHAPTER 109

Selene's POV My heart, though thundered at his words, had me rethinking what was more important. "You have absolutely no right to tell me that you want me to be yours! Not after everything that you have done. You better remain in hiding." I said infinitesimally. Albeit, it was disastrous to threaten a man that probably had too many schemes up his sleeves, but I wasn't going to take any chances. "Don't speak to me like a piece of trash. I have done nothing to deserve such treatments from you! If anything you are the one who breached the contract. You knew you were involved with a man but allowed yourself to be carried away by another. What does that make you? A pathetic human who cannot bridle her desires." He snapped. His annoyance was palpable over the phone and I didn't think I was going to hesitate to assuage him just yet. My mouth fell wide open at his accusation but I refused to be moved by it. "Sounds more like a justification for your deception. I do not care about you

CHAPTER 110

Selene's POV I gazed into Julie's eyes, blinking slowly, while smiling sheepishly. It felt like I was floating on my air, the world around me felt like it was spinning. I had never felt this type of hangover in a while, it must have been a crazy night… "Oh my goodness, I don't even have a single idea why you're acting out." Julie mumbled under her breath in annoyance, making me grin even more lazily. "Oomph!" She muttered, trying to pull me to the side, "what have you been eating?" She complained, making me even laugh more. I laughed as I tried to steady myself gripping the sheets of my bed wondering how I had been so careless when muffled voices reached my ears. Slowly, I squinted as I tried to focus on the voices when I heard a slight noise in the kitchen area or so I thought and my curiosity even grew bigger with me just trying to be as lovely as I could but still very much involved in whatever I could find. The reason why I had been a little bit reluctant to do a thing or
