Chapter - 112After Daniel was done presenting his side, the audience began to discuss among themselves the major points from the hearing and began to issue their own verdicts on whether Abir was innocent or not. And no doubt, there was a unanimous opinion that Abir was innocent, and it was the prosecution playing dirty."Your Honour," with all the ridicule coming his way, the prosecutor didn’t wait for the Judge to get done with Abir’s case and wanted to get started with Suzie's case right away."Shut up... Shut up... Not a single word before I ask you to yap," as soon as the prosecutor's voice fell into his ears, the Judge, without any regard for the audience, lashed out at the prosecutor. The case against Abir had no substance whatsoever. From the look of things, it was not Abir but the police and the prosecution who were high on weed. These idiots could not even investigate the facts that lay in front of them, begging to be investigated.The Judge was very much worried about how t

Chapter - 114As Alex and Daniel walked out of the court, they were surrounded by the media persons, but Daniel conveniently walked away, refusing to comment until the court was done with today's hearing. Meanwhile, no one paid attention to Alex, and he sneaked his way out easily, following behind Daniel.In a cafe near the court,"So, what do you think?" Daniel asked as the two of them sat beside the glass window in the cafe, enjoying their beverage."Well, it's plain as paper. We are going to win this," Alex said. He did not even try to hide his amusement."Not nervous anymore?" Daniel asked, reminding him of how he was just before the hearing started."I won't lie. I did almost freaked out when I heard you admit to the charges in the beginning. You surely gave everyone a shock." Alex said, remembering the beginning of Daniel's opening statement."Hahaha!" Hearing Alex, Daniel broke into a burst of laughter. It took him a while to calm down. After he did, he said, "You need to set t

Chapter - 116"You did well," Daniel said as he drove his car out of the parking of the court. They have just gotten rid of the pestering reporters, always wanting more."It is nothing compared to you. I was just the means, but you used it to the max today," Alex tried to be a bit humble."Too much humility can be seen as arrogance. And above all, I had everything served in a platter to me. If I couldn't even use that, I should rather put my degree in the market," Daniel said as he chuckled, looking at Alex. While Alex could only smile hearing him, not commenting anything on it."You know, I have been wanting to ask you something. How did you know that Suzie was involved in all this?" Daniel asked."To be perfectly honest, I did nothing different. I just wanted to be thorough, so I tracked the places Abir and Suzie visited on the day of the so-called incident. Abir was quite easy, but for Suzie, I had to dig around a bit more, and her movement in the last few days, I found them a bit

Chapter - 118"Here's your coffee," Alex walked into the PR department with coffee for everyone, even Amber. Amber has joined the group with other ladies and was now above Alex in the unspoken hierarchy."Thank you..." Jennifer thanked Alex.Alex nodded with a smile before moving forward. Jennifer was the only one who never asked Alex of anything or tormented him in any way. In return, Alex did everything for her on his own accord while he toiled for others.A week had passed since he had gotten back to the PR department and become the errand boy for Hazel, Ellaine and others again. The storm of scandals that hit Theation had calmed down, and everything was slowly getting back to normal."Hey cutie, Karen was looking for you. You should go see her," Hazel took the coffee from Alex and told him."Me?" Why is she asking for me?" Alex asked as he placed all the cups in front of her and sat on her desk. Long used to the weird names they use to address him with Alex just brushed that off.

Chapter - 120As they watched Alex march away, Daniel could not help but sigh. It was such a good opportunity for both Alex and Theation. Alex was getting much more than he would get anywhere, and the company was getting an enthusiastic and hardworking member under their wing. But everything blew out of proportion before he could even comprehend what the crux of the problem was?Daniel had his regret, but Karen felt cheated. She felt cheated by both Alex and Jessica. With an abundance of unanswered questions in her mind, she turned back to look at Jessica, hoping to have a clear understanding of things that transpired in such a short time.Jessica, on the other hand, continued to stare at the door angrily even after Alex was nowhere in sight. Alex had crossed all the lines, and Jessica desperately needed someone to blame when she found Daniel and Karen looking at her, "He was the guy you wanted me to hire? Both of you put forward his name, didn't you? Look what kind of scum was he? Hu
