When Avery arrived home, she was taken aback to find Vivian and Mrs Williams waiting for her, their faces twisted with anger. They launched into a story about how Jeremy had tried to rape Vivian, but Avery stood her ground, vehemently defending her husband."You're lying!" Avery shouted. "Jeremy would never do such a thing. He loves me, and he wouldn't hurt a fly."Mrs Williams, her face turning red with rage, slapped Avery across the face. "You stupid girl," she spat. "Don't you see what that man is doing to you?Stunned by her grandmother's physical attack, Avery stumbled backward, a hand flying to her cheek. Tears welled in her eyes, not from the pain but from the betrayal. How could her own family do this to her?"Get out," Avery whispered, her voice trembling with emotion. "Get out of my house, and don't you dare come back. I never want to see either of you again.""it's my house, it's you and your good for nothing husband that will get out,"Mrs Williams yelled, her expression a
The Williams arrived at their lawyer's office the next day with their fake evidence accusing Jeremy of wanting to rape Vivian.Mrs Williams in her usual dramatic display started ranting the moment they entered the lawyer's office, "Can you imagine Vivian had gone to their apartment to talk with Avery so we could make peace but she was around then her good-for-nothing husband tried raping her,"The lawyer's eyebrow lifted in a skeptical arch as he turned to face Mrs Williams. "This is a very serious accusation, Mrs Williams," he said, his tone laced with caution. "Are you certain you want to proceed with this?"Vivian, feigning a sob, stepped forward, tears springing to her eyes. "Why would we lie about something like this?" she whimpered. "Jeremy almost took advantage of me when I was in a vulnerable state. He's a monster, and a man who can't control himself doesn't deserve to lead the family's business."Uncle Theodore, his face contorted with anger and self-righteousness, spoke up,
It was the day for the final hearing of the case between Williams and Avery. Everyone had arrived just in time. Mrs Williams and her cohort were beaming with Joy as they couldn't wait to present their evidence and get Jeremy and Avery off the way.As Jeremy and Avery walked into the court hall a few minutes after the other's arrival, they wasted no time throwing Shades as usual."Late as always. I'm sure that's why you are so poor, you always arrive late for an opportunity," Mrs. Williams sneered, making her accomplices laugh.Jeremy gave them a knowing smile and without uttering a word, led his wife to her seat."A lot will change after today and be ready to move out of my house immediately we wim this case, you cheap rapist," Mr Williams yelled as he took Jeremy's silence as a mockery.A few minutes later, the Williams lawyer walked into the court and went straight to where Jeremy sat down while the whole court turned to look at him as his voice rang in the hall."I called your lawy
Mrs Williams suddenly became more uneasy as she knew what that meant. The barrister had never lost a case. He was dreaded by most lawyers and was nicknamed "The Beast of Truth"She wondered how Jeremy was able to afford such an expensive and notable attorney.And for the attorney to have agreed to Jeremy's demand, Then he must have proof strong enough to counter the Williams lawyer because history has it that the attorney would never take up a case that he knew he wouldn't win. Everyone watched as the attorney took the position reserved for Jeremy's lawyer.The Judge turned to Jeremy with a puzzled look, "Why didn't you inform me of the changes? Imagine he has not arrived in time,"The attorney quickly chimed in before Jeremy could respond, "It's all my fault, my lord, I had asked him not to inform anyone of my arrival to avoid my opponent doing away with their false evidence," The attorney's words made Mrs Williams's heart skip as she feared the worst might happen. The Williams law
The silence in the courtroom was defeating with hearts racing fast as they await the judge's verdict. The Judge cleared his throat once more, trying to dissipate the tensions he could sense from the crowd, "Firstly, We have no case here but the Williams decided to make a mountain out of a molehill because of greed and dishonesty," he flipped the page of the document in front of him, "I'll come back to them shortly," "Mr. Theodore Williams," the Judge called out, his voice edged with simmering anger, "make your way to the witness box."Uncle Theodore, pale and shaking, was suffocating under the weight of the Judge's words and the piercing stares of the courtroom. Slowly, he made his way to the witness box, each step feeling like a mile as he navigated the distance between shame and accountability.The courtroom watched his progression in stony silence, the air electric with anticipation as everyone waited to see what the Judge had in store for the disgraced man."You have been found
The news of Avery's victory over the Williams family had spread like wildfire, with everyone from staff to shareholders feeling the ripple effects of the dramatic power shift.Mr West Williams, still reeling from the harsh punishment he had been dealt, called an emergency meeting to address the company's employees and investors. The mood was somber, the atmosphere tense with anticipation as they waited for what was to come.Raphael, the nephew of Avery, who had been out of town for business and had not been privy to the courtroom drama, was particularly angered by the news. He walked into the company that morning, his face flushed with anger and his eyes narrowed in contempt."This is an outrage!" he spat, his voice ringing through the room. "How dare you let a woman take over our company?"Mr West Williams stood at the front of the room, his face a mask of resignation. "It is not a matter of letting her, but rather accepting the reality of the situation."everyone arrived at the Conf
Jeremy took his wife shopping in preparation for her new position as the Williams CEO. He made sure she got the finest of things and when she questioned how he got so much money to spend, he used his usual lines " It's the money from Noah or Steve."The next day, Avery entered the company premises with the stride of a CEO and the grace of a queen, her self-assurance boosted by her husband Jeremy's praise. As she stepped into the auditorium, her staff greeted her warmly, their cheers and smiles reflecting the respect she commanded.However, among the crowd of well-wishers stood Raphael, a scowl on his face and anger burning in his eyes. It was clear that he was ready to nurse the resentment brewing in him since the last conference meeting. Avery acknowledged the staff with a nod, her posture radiating authority. "Thank you all for the warm welcome," she said, her voice strong and confident. "I know that many of you are wondering about the changes that are coming to this company. Rest
The company's adviser walked into Raphael's office with so much fear. Everyone in the company dreaded Raphael's wrath because he was the one in charge of employing and sacking staff. He was the chief disciplinarian and also the former Acting CEO's Right-hand man. Raphael knew that Avery would never offer him the position of her right-hand man, and the thought of serving under a woman only fueled his resentment towards her. His pride had been wounded by her sudden elevation, and he was determined to do everything in his power to undermine her authority."You sent for me sir..." The Adviser stuttered as he walked into the office. "Yes, I did. Have you seated," Raphael commanded with a hardened tone that sent shivers down the Adviser's spine as he quietly sat down.As Raphael paced around his office looking worried, the Adviser anticipated what he had to say with bated breath. "Sir, you look worried. Is anything the matter?" He managed to ask when he noticed Raphael was not ready to
