“…the court finds Julia Sanchez not guilty …..”The judge trails off giving me another win of the week. Julia was accused of being involved in a murder crime from her ex-boss. Well it happens that her former boss Mrs. Annie Michaels since her thirteen years old daughter was found dead on the day Julia was doing her day to day cleaning at the mansion. As a lawyer, I wasn’t supposed to judge anyone yet here I always knew she couldn’t kill even a fly. She’s just an innocent forty three years old mother of four trying to make ends meet.
It happens; the daughter died from food poisoning, and guesses who made the food? Julia did, but left the food in the fridge for the family. It appears the girl committed suicide. I had also begun seeing Julia as the guilty one since all the evidence was pointing directly at her. I couldn’t bring myself to believe that that’s why I tried harder to make her not guilty. Until the other night I was convinced she may go to prison. Lucky we, Adele the dead daughter’s diary was found in her school locker plus a letter to her parents.
“Congratulations Miss P again”Max Mrs. Michaels’ lawyer and a colleague says to me coming in for a hug.
“Thanks max, but you this close to bring down my cool record “I joke.
He smiles cutely and walks off. Max is one of my closest friends I have in our firm, but a good competitor also. Apart from me he’s another lawyer with an outstanding record, he wins most of his cases.
Being stressed enough for the day, I leave early making sure I avoid Eric, my assistant and best friend. Once I meet him it’s just going to be work and work.
“Mommy you came!” my three years old son Pearl shouts as soon as he sees me enter the daycare.
“Yes mommy missed her champ. “I say smiling kissing his face making him giggle. How cute. In the corner of my eyes, I notice a kid around Pearl’s age looking sad. I put my son down and walk over to the cute little fella.
“HI?” I bend to his level in order to see his cute face well. He mutters a silent hi and looks down shyly.
“Danny see! I told you my mommy is pretty! “My son hollers beside me. The young guy I came to know as Danny smiles sadly again at us.
“Pearl why don’t you go and tell your teacher am here?”
“Why are you sad Danny?” I ask the silent boy once Pearl is gone. With that question, he starts crying ooh no! What started as sniffles soon turned to a full-blown crying. Once he’s stopped crying, he looks up at me. For a kid, he looks sadder.
“Mommy hates me and Elle “he silently says.
“She doesn’t hate you honey” I say to comfort him since I don’t even know who his mommy is.
“She does hate us, she told daddy! She said she wishes we were not born! “He says hurting. I slowly pat his back and he stops crying. He hugs me affectionately and smiles at me.
“Thanks Pearl’s mom. “He smiles at me .duh this kid has more manners than my son.
“Just call me Amanda “I smile at him. I stand and offer him my hand to stand up; he does and smiles cutely at me. As I look around, I find four pairs of eyes staring at us.
“Daddy you came?” Danny says more like a question. Danny’s father is holding a little girl in his hands looking at the two of us with an unreadable expression on his face. He hugs Danny lovingly.
“Mommy look I came with Elle!” my son happily says, he is always happy.
“Amanda meet Danny’s dad Miles Cooper, Mr. Miles meet Amanda Brown, Pearl’s mum “Kate the daycare teacher says. Miles smiles cutely at me.
“We already met “he says winking at me. As if reminding me of our outstanding meeting tomorrow aargh!
“What you are telling me now Miles is that your ex-wife ….:”“Ex-girlfriend! He clarifies the ‘nth time.“Ok your ex-girlfriend whom you were dating six years and a mother of your two kids decided to just call it quits on you and the kids ““Yap, but that doesn’t matter anymore, she wants to go away with my kids so that she can start her life somewhere else with another man…”“Wait how do you know there’s another man in her life?”He sarcastically laughs “do you not know who my ex-girlfriend is? Don’t answers that don’t you know who Anne Evans is? “I look at him questionably.He gets out his phone and walks behind me on my chair and shows me a picture of a beautiful brunette lady. I shrug my shoulder and look at him from my shoulder and notice him loo
“Ooh no, she still is so single ……..not exactly but don’t worry I will tell you immediately when P gets a boyfriend “I listen as my best friend, Kennedy talks“Who are you talking to? “I ask after hearing my name“My sister. “She says continuing to talk.“But you know siz I already have got a date for her”“Which sister “I interrupt her once again.“The one who gave birth to you daah!” she says continuing with her talk. I being the stubborn me decide to chime in.“Hey mum, don’t listen to her. Ooh and mum when are you coming home? The rag rats are too much”“We are not rag rats!” the rag rats themselves shout as they take away the remote from me.“Ooh no Kenzie, I got here fast so I decide wh
“Amanda , phone off the table !” mum shouts across the dining table.“ Yes mum.” I say eying tony who is yet to be noticed by mum , he is using his phone from under the table.“Tony!”Kenna shouts ,”can you pass me the salt please “ she silently says. We all know she doesn’t need the salt since its near Mike and not tony .“ So mum , what was the announcement ?” Andy asks .“ Be patient my dear, and stop talking with food in your mouth .”Mum scolds her.“ As you know, Shirley and I have been seeing each other for over seven years now ,” Phil mum’s boyfriend begins “ I know we are already old , but I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her ,,,,”“HE PROPOSED !” mum shouts happily lifting her hand up showing us her beautiful diamond ring .
“She came by today at my office,”“What did she want now?”“She told me she only wanted to talk and she thinks that she needs to move back at my mansion.”“How long has she been out of the mansion and what caused her to leave?”“She’s been out so the mansion for about three months now, I know what you are thinking, nope I didn’t chase her away. It all started a year ago when she was about four months pregnant with Danielle, I was happy, I knew we were happy so I did what a logical man can do, I proposed. She looked happy but I didn’t know those were some façade. A few weeks after I proposed, she begun coming home later than usual , not wanting to spend time with Danny ,even though she never spend a lot of time with him. I didn’t notice right away. One night while I was on a business trip, one of my maids called me an
The day is normal as always , Eric is being his usual annoying self and I’m already done with today’s work load at two pm. I mentally give myself a pat in the back as I smile widely. Being hungry is one of the side effects of working eight hours nonstop. I stand taking my phone and make way towards Eric’s office.“Let’s go for lunch. “I say once in his office startling a very concentrated Eric.“I’m busy “he says as he continues typing.“I am the boss come on I won’t fire you “I beg“Still nope “he states not even looking at me“I will pay “I say the magic words making him shut off his laptop and smile at me.“Let’s go!” he happily says. Making me groan, man this guy will make me broke.“Tell me what is happening i
Today I feel like crap, which is always a feeling of a bad day ahead. I ignored my alarm clock for the first twenty seven minutes that is until Pearl came to my room and begun jumping on me telling me he is hungry. It’s always a routine that I wake up at 6:30 and prepare myself for the day and get Pearl ready for the day later on. Being the lazy ass I am I also forgot to pick my outfit of the day yesterday night, making me spend another extra twenty minutes looking for suitable clothes. Today not being my day, it took me around thirty minutes to drop off Pearl at his kindergarten and arrive at work because of the traffic.As I enter in the building , all eyes turn on me, well I think for many reasons one of them being I am an hour and a half late and two having worn a purple unofficial dress. I was used to putting on official clothes that I almost forgot of my dresses. I walk to the elevators. I sigh as it closes towards my floor 52
“I need popcorns the drama is about to begin!” Kenny says as she makes herself comfortable. We all glare at her and she matters a ‘what’ to me.“Pearl and Dannie can you go to Uncle Eric?” Pearl nods and takes Dannie’s hand and they run out of my office.“Since you were so eager to talk, why don’t you tell Miles why are here Marianne?” I ask her too nicely, she glares at me and looks at Miles who is still standing with Ellie in his arms. Damn he looks loveable.“I decided to pay Amie, my niece a visit,” she starts. I snort.“Niece!” Miles asks glaring at me.I glare back at him and say “it wasn’t relevant.”“As I was saying, I wanted her to be Annie’s lawyer since she is family, you know.”“But she is already my la
He slowly goes back to my mouth and kisses me with a lot of passion, I find myself responding with the same intensity. A minute later, his shirt is off as I run my hands on his bare chest. I moan as our bare chests come in contact. My sensitive nipples become more aroused as his chest start to move sideways.His hands push my dress all the way down and his hand skillfully enter my panties and start playing with my wet parts... I moan loudly as one of his large fingers enter me. His other hand rips my wet panties and leaves me with his merciless fingers which are moving at a faster pace. He adds his third finger moaning of how tight I am.. I feel already at the peak and I want to come so badly..." My virgin eyes! "someone shouts from the front door."Damn Ken, I was enjoying the show " a voice I recognize as Miles best friend replies.I hide my face in Miles' chest as he shouts a get out. He smiles sweetly at me and helps me put on my clothes back well wi
