The moment Lydia stepped into the car, Carson said, “Lydia, I'm not your driver. Come sit at the front”. She wanted to argue, but decided against it. She had actually saved the sit for Marian, but since Carson insisted, she made her way to the front passenger's seat. Immediately, Lydia sat on the chair and began to walk on her seat belt, Carson turned the engine on,“Huh, aren't you waiting for Marian?” She asked and Carson shook his head. “There's no time anymore I have to appear in court by 11 am” Lydia looked at the time, it was 10 am. She watched as Carson drove the car out of the compound, and Marian hasn't still shown up till they disappeared. Lydia shook her head, Marian will be really angry at her. She'll blame her, definitely. When Marian came out of the house, she sighted the car as it moved out of the compound. She saw Lydia sitting comfortably in the front passenger's seat,“Lydia, you think you can sit in the front seat as you like and ask Carson to drive off witho

“Alright, here I go,” Lydia said with a nervous smile. The car just parked in front of George's company. “Are you sure you don't want me to come with you?” Carson asked her with a tilted head. “Yes, I'll be fine. Besides, I don't want to be a burden”“You're not” Carson replied, “It's my duty as your attorney, you know” “There's no case yet, and I hope there won't be” Carson chuckled, “I have met George only twice, and it looks like I know him better than you”“Why do you say that?” She asked.“George is a proud man. He has more confidence in his money than any other thing. He will dare not agree to a woman. He will never subject” he explained. “Let's hope you are wrong since I don't want to be much of a bother,” Lydia said and Carson breathed out a small laugh “That night I found you on the bridge, I made it clear to myself and to you that I'll help you. I didn't know why, I have never helped someone who isn't family before, but when I made promises to help you, it wasn't just

Lydia let out a chuckle,“Sign the papers, George. That's the only reason I'm here”. “Are you sure?” George asked in a low voice before adding, “With the way you're dressed, I can hardly believe that didn't come for something more. Lydia, I can let all these stay in the dark, you know, we can always forget something like this ever happened”Lydia shook her head as her mind flashed back to what Carson had said earlier. She wonders if the man has the gift of seeing vision. Wanting to see what George had in mind, she asked, “So, what are you insinuating?” “Let's forget the past, tear the divorce paper, tell that fucking lawyer you don't want to go on with that plan anymore and that you have a better one” “Which is?” She asked and George grabbed her by the waist. “That you want to come back to me. That you still love me. Don't you miss how I make you feel in bed, Lydia” he asked and Lydia giggled, “Mr. George Martins,” she called as she gently stepped back from him, taking his han

Marcus, Carson's client, has not stopped thanking him since the court announced him not guilty. He had actually thought he would lose the case and be sentenced to years in prison. Not until Carson came with some solid proof that Marcus didn't do any of what he was accused of. This shut the other lawyer's mouth immediately. “Thank you so much, Attorney. I don't know what I'll do to ever repay you for this great help,” he said as he shook hands with Carson. “I'll suggest you be good and calm from now on. I mean, you literally made me a fool sometimes, don't let your mouth or pride put you in double trouble. Your anger should be checked along with how you run your mouth in public” Carson advised. The funny thing was, Marcus kept nodding his head obediently. He has seen that he was supposed to rot in jail if not for Carson. “I'll keep that in mind from now on,” Marcus said before Carson excused himself. Walking out of the building, he made his way back to the office. “Good afternoo
