Dante walked into the court room escorted by police men behind and in front of him. He was neatly shaved for the first time time in seven months, the first eyes that locked with his was Yara's-his lawyer, she looked unbothered but as usual beautiful. Dante was dying of anxiety as he waited for his final judgement, Yara was his last hope and she hadn’t promised him that the case would end favoring him. "Dante Willow, you have been accused of murder, robbery and to be in possession of art pieces worth billions of dollars. Let the court proceeding begin" the judge hit the table That was the day that Dante fate would be revealed after seven months of severing time in prison, his in-laws had waited for this day so much that even if they had their jobs to attend to on a Monday morning, they rather be at the court room to see Dante punished for stealing their most prized possession, even Natty and her husband left there country for the court case. It was also the day that the witnes
“My honor, every surveillance footage as stated earlier where compromised” Attorney Bryan spoke with an air of confidence in his voice However, Attorney Yara still holding the flash drive, not ready to back down or succumb to Attorney Bryan intimidating smirk. She sure knew what she was doing and just somehow, she hopped that it could help her client, she had seen Dante cried many times whenever she was speaking to him, he wanted nothing more than his freedom, to once again see his daughter. Yara walked forward to the judge, taking elegant stride and keeping her hope alive that the chief judge would swirl in the court case in a way that favors her side. Already she knew that he could have been bribed already but what were the odds, maybe good people still exists? "My honor please permit me to play the surveillance footage" Yara interrupted Bryan who was about speaking but because he didn't want to lose face, he arrogantly put his hands into the pocket of his suit trouser waiting t
Attorney Bryan’s ego was wounded by the unexpected defeat. Dante walked out of the court room a freeman after severing time in prison for seven months. As he walked to the car park with Attorney Yara beside him, reporters ran to him with microphones and cameras to hear him speak. “Mr. Dante how does it feel to be declared innocent by the law?” “Would you say is obstruction of justice by the prosecutors” Yara quickly grabbed Dante’s hand without any hesitation and led him to her Mercedes, she opened the door for Dante, he swiftly entered, the reporters followed behind them with flashing camera and microphones towards the car. “Mr. Dante tell the public your side of the story” Yara shut the car door cutting off the questions, she immediately walked to the driver seat, started the engine and zoomed off leaving the reporters. Inside the car, Dante was still surprised of his freedom, he had longed for months to finally be at his home. “Thank you, attorney Yara" “It’s the law, the i
“I don’t ask you to be rich, I just want you to be honest, how did you get the money in the brief case? Is it the profit from selling the art piece?”“I promise you Audrey this money is not from your family missing art piece, I have been saving this money for years now, I just need you to trust me”“Saving from your salary?” Audrey asked sarcastically “The police searched every damn place in this house while you were in prison and they didn’t see that briefcase, so where did it come from?”“I carefully hide it in the wardrobe with some cloth on it’ “Dante there are a lot you are not telling me. I want to believe you but I don’t know how to when you are not telling me everything I need to know”“Please trust me Audrey, this money is not from any illegal means”“My family art piece gets missing and suddenly you have a briefcase filled with money?”“I would explain everything to you and it would make sense but please for now just trust me”“You are not giving me reasons to believe you D
The men were skillfully watching at Dante, ordinarily he could have just given up and kneeled down to ghost, but Dante had a conviction that he could beat all the men hands down even though he hadn’t gotten into a fight before that he could remember. When Dante did not back down nor give in but instead he folded his fist to fight, the men attacked him one after the other. He gave the next man a blow to his stomach taking him off balance and punching the next on his nose bridge, Dante finished the remaining five men and they were unconscious on the floor. Ghost was surprised that his men where on the ground because of just one man, Dante Willow, he was suddenness scared and in an attempt to run away, he fell to the ground, and he managed to crawl, looking at Dante’s dangerous facial expression made him scared of what Dante could do to him “For your information, I didn’t kill Jean” Dante crouched down and punched ghost on his Jaw making him to grunt in pains like a weakling. Dante t
When they finished discussing in the restaurant, Yara drove Dante back to his house and dropped him in front while she drove off.Immediately Dante stepped into the house, he was greeted by the house keeper, Nita“Mr. Dante!” she shouted, it was exactly seven months since the police showed up to search the house and ever since then she hadn’t seen him.“How are you doing Nita?” Dante asked “I’m very well, thank you. Miss Audrey didn’t say you would be coming today” she asked confused “Yes, no one believed I would be out of prison” he muttered to himself“Huh?” Nita asked due to the fact that she didn’t hear what Dante had said“I returned yesterday, seem like you had the day off.”“Oh, yes I did” she replied with a smile “Where is Isabella and Tessy?” Dante asked about his daughters “Tessy is at her ballet school and Isabella is asleep upstairs”“Okay” Dante said walking up to see his daughterWhen he entered the room, the little girl was sleeping soundly on the bed, he gently kis
Inside the burning house, thick smoke filled Dante’s lungs as he ran up the stairs, the fire blocked him but he managed to navigate himself to Isabella room. The smoke blurred his vision even more when he got to Isabella room, he scanned the room in a bid to find the little girl, her bed sheet was already burning. “Isabella! Bella? Isabella is daddy where are you baby?” he called out her name as he coughed hardly and struggled to breath When she didn’t respond, he made a strong decision to leave her and get the money in the briefcase instead, he ran to the other room, luckily for him, the contract document paper was still there on the table, where he had left it, the fire hadn’t engulfed it yet, so he quickly put it into his pocket and took the briefcase of money along with him, he had succeeded in getting the document and the cash but his daughter was still somewhere in the burning house. Dante struggled to see through the smoke, as he left the room, although he got the briefcase
In the hospital Dante was laying on the hospital bed subconscious when the doctor came to check up on him. Dante sustained little burns and his legs was dislocated. Audrey rushed into the room looking worried and nervous, on hearing the news, she had feared for her daughter most especially. "He is my husband. I am Audrey Willow-Xanros" she introduced herself "I know who you are, I watched an advert you were on" the doctor replied happily like he was seeing a celebrity, he didn't like that Audrey would stoop so low to marry a husband such as Dante Willow "You look more beautiful in person than on social media, I even-" "How is my husband?" Audrey asked interrupting him, that was the most important to her at that point even though her career was as well important to her The doctor almost rolled his eyes then he went back to being professional-in his doctor mood and not a fan mood "He is in a stable state now, little burns and-I believe your husband had amnesia right?" "Had? Li
