Jason looked at Gregory, asking if he had the right to know where the baby was, and Gregory nodded in response. “He is with me,” Jason responded calmly, and the Judge nodded with a smirk on his face with his eyes showing signs of intended mischief. “I was hoping that he was going to be present in this court hearing.” “That was not stipulated, Magistrate. There was no demand by the Judge who was supposed to preside over this case that the baby should be brought. Moreover, he is still a toddler, and would definitely have no impact in this case.” Gregory responded firmly, looking at the Magistrate with so much displeasure. Isabella rolled her eyes at Gregory, but he was so occupied with looking at Albert that he didn’t even realize that she was glaring at him. The Magistrate adjusted his glasses while he glared at Gregory who stood his ground against his intended intimidation.“I believe that as the legal representative of the Petitioner, you are supposed to inform him of some
Jason stared at the couple who were seated at the other side of the table, and he folded his arms without letting go of his smile. “Magistrate?” Gregory called out to Albert who was startled out of his thoughts at once. “Yes! Erm!” Albert picked up the file which he dropped on the table while listening to the record and flipped through at once without knowing the particular page of the documents he was supposed to stop at. Everyone was eager to know what he was going to say as they all stared at him, but it seemed like he was very confused, and didn’t know where to begin. Severally, he cleared his throat as he suddenly felt choked while he tried to get a grip on himself. “Is he alright?” Jason whispered to Gregory who chuckled slightly before giving him a response. “I guess he is unable to handle the panic that we put him into.” Gregory looked at the magistrate for a few seconds before he shook his head and brought down his elbows from the table while he waited to hear wha
It was obvious to Jason that the Magistrate was going to attempt to hand over the custody of the child to Isabella even without a thorough analysis of the case, and he was prepared to carry out the plans that he had in mind. He pulled out his phone from his pocket without anyone knowing, and then he operated it for a few seconds before he returned it back to his picket and adjusted himself on his seat. Gregory wanted to speak up the moment he heard the Magistrate mention that Jason had no source of income, but he decided to remain calm since Jason told him he was going to handle things if they tried to get out of hand. Isabella and Clark were already smiling victoriously and were anticipating celebrating their success while they waited to hear what the Magistrate was going to say. “I have looked at the files presented by the two parties present at this court hearing, and after thorough analysis, I would say that the evidence provided by the Petitioner is not enough to declare
For a few seconds, the room was quiet while everyone continued to stare at Jason who took a little break from speaking. Gregory leaned toward him, and when he was sure that he was paying attention to him, he spoke with a tone that only Jason could hear. “I think we might have to request for this to be adjourned until Monday, then I can try to fix this. I can be able to get the right Judge to handle this case, not this Psycho.” Gregory suggested, glaring at Albert who was very much uneasy. “No, Greg. I don’t have that kind of time. I want this ended at once, and I can move over to the next thing I have in mind, I cannot be going back and forth with this. It’s been long overdue.” Jason shook his head to disagree with Gregory who sighed before he leaned backward and waited to see what Jason was going to do. “Albert Wilson…” Jason picked up his phone and searched for the Magistrate’s profile while everyone including Isabella and her companions looked at him. “Aha! Here we go. Le
Jason chuckled almost immediately, looking at Clark who turned to look at him with a frown on his face. “What is funny? Huh?” “You, Clark. You are the one who is a joke right now. Do you really think you were going to bribe your way through this one alongside your lover? I thought you were smarter than this, but clearly, you didn't take note of the signs.”“What stupid signs are you talking about? He already gave his verdict!” “You mean your verdict? He just did what you paid him to do, or maybe you are holding any of his daughters, hostage, just like you did with the Doctor.” “That’s…” Clark wanted to speak, but he had to stop the moment he remembered what Jason did to the Magistrate, and he looked at the phone he was holding, causing Jason to chuckle at once. “Don’t worry, Clark. I already have everything that I need to prove that you kidnapped the Doctor’s family. I am sure that by the time Isabella here is arrested, she will mention that you aided her in the act.” Jason
“Sign here, please.” Gregory placed the documents on the table in front of the Magistrate and pointed to a spot at once. “You are making a very big mistake, Gregory. The Partners will be angry if they find out about this.” Albert said as he picked up his pen to sign the document, but Gregory scoffed at him almost immediately. “Let me worry about that, Albert. Thank you.” Gregory picked up the documents from the table and returned to his seat before putting them carefully inside the file in front of him. “All set?” Jason said to him, and he nodded in response without saying a word. “Very good.” Jason nodded twice, and then he turned to look at Isabella who was dumbfounded as more years streamed down her eyes. Her hands were shaking, and she sniffled severally while she attempted to get hold of herself. “Henry will be taken care of, you don’t have to worry about that. He is my son, and I will do everything I can to make him happy. I hope this teaches you a lesson, and you have
“Don’t try to fight this, I am warning the both of you. It would only get messier for you if you try to fight this. I suggest you try to think about your lives.” Jason said calmly before he took a break for a few seconds while he concentrated his gaze on Isabella who suddenly felt squeezed and choked in her black velvet gown. “Isabella? A storm is coming for you and your family, and I hope that you will be able to withstand the pressure. Nah, I don’t think you will be able to, because it would be so turbulent that it would take you by surprise.” Jason sniggered, and then he turned to look at the Magistrate who bent his face in shame at once. “I suggest you have a rethink or you will suffer greatly for your actions!” Jason took in a deep breath, and after letting it out slowly, he cleared his throat before he continued. “Well, it’s been an amazing event, but I have to get going right away. Gentle men and lady? See you some other time, or maybe not.” Jason turned to look at Grego
In less than thirty minutes, they were able to arrive in front of the hospital after beating the morning traffic. Jason got out of the car even before James could get out to open the door for him, and he dashed into the hospital as fast as he could with thoughts of anticipation roaming in his mind. His face was not bright, but it had flickers of hope scattered all over it. “Good morning, Sir.” Greeted one of the nurses at the reception, and Jason quickly stopped after he almost walked past her as his mind was already focused on seeing his Grandfather. “Oh! I am so sorry. Good morning.” “No problem, Sir. How may I help you?” The nurse asked with a smile that expressed the fact that she recognized Jason even though she had to find out where he was headed. “Can I see the Doctor?” “You mean Doctor Brenda?” “Yes! Yes, please! Can I see her?” “Sure! Just a moment, please.” The nurse nodded with a smile, and then she picked up the telephone to dial a number while Jason waited
