FREE GIFT, NO PAYMENTS NEEDED“So technically I won’t be cross-examined again, right?” Ethan asked him.“Not really. They have all the needed information; the investigators will handle the rest.Unless, of course, any of the suspects raises an issue that has to do with you and the court needs clearer information, or I am representing and I want us to pin more on them.These two scenarios may warrant you being in the witness box again, but I think this will be unlikely.” Mr David explained to him.They got into their chauffeur, and the driver drove.Thankfully, Ethan had booked the return flight on a two-hour interval from the first flight, knowing the court session was not going to last that longThe flight was just a few minutes away.Mr David was returning to Redwood, and Ethan was taking a flight to the Cley Islands instead.Ethan’s flight was moving first, and so he was the first to board his flight, leaving Mr David behind in the VIP lounge.In just about forty minutes, Ethan was

THE UNKNOWN VISITOREthan smiled widely“Once again I appreciate your kindness and your willingness to do something return for your health. However, like I said, I prefer that all that money go to charity.I have nothing that I wish for, because I am doing well, thankfully.For the amount spent on flights and transportation, I did not even realise that money. I don't pay for flights; I have cards that cover that, and I don't buy fuel either, so technically nothing is lost.I don't need anything. I want all that money to be channelled to charity. I am very good with that, and I will be more than glad if you do this for me.” Ethan explained to the astonishment of Jake and his father, Mr Andy. The two looked at each other in surprise. “Okay, Doctor. That will be done. But I still think you should take the money, or at least something, as a token.Anyways, I am sure I am going to do the donation within the course of the week, but that being said, I am very grateful for your help, and

YOU ARE UNWELCOME HEREEthan made his way straight to the gate.The guards opened the small door for him to see who the people were.When Ethan got out, a man and a woman stood at the gate, with smiles on their faces.The duo seemed to be somewhere in their sixties.“Good day. I heard you were looking for me. How may I help you?” Ethan asked, raising an eyebrow.“Hello, sir. Nice to meet you. We are here to speak to you, please,” the man, Ernest, said.Ethan walked back inside and instructed them to come in, and they followed.Right at the path to the entrance of the house, Ethan stood there, trying to engage them.“I am sorry, but I do not know you by any chance, and I am not expecting you either.Who are you, please?” Ethan asked them“My name is Ernest Allswell, and this is my wife, Sarah. We are the parents of Jake. Jake Allswell,” the man explained.Ethan raised an eyebrow in blank expression.“Jake's parents? I never knew he had parents. But how did you get my address?” Ethan as

BACK TO COURTFRIDAY MORNING, REDWOOD AIRPORTMr David and Ethan were walking on the runway, heading towards the stairs of the aeroplane to board it.They were busily having a conversation as they boarded the plane.“So. I have been able to draft something. I will perfect it when the plane moves and then I will submit it in the court during the hearing. With the severeness of the case, I know it is going to result in the lawyer being fined and punished by the court, and being taken off the case.” Mr David explained to Ethan as they got into the plane.They headed straight to sit in the first class cabin where their seats had been assigned.They discussed throughout the entire flight until they landed and checked out at the airport at Dome.Heir chauffeur was already waiting for them when they arrived. They got into the car and headed straight for the courtroom.An hour later, they were seated in the courtroom. The judges had arrived and the court was already in session.There wwere a n

“Thank you, Mr Andy. That was a good job you did.Now that you have concluded your investigations into the first part, we can set the ball rolling and fully immerse ourselves in the case.For the new suspects who have presented, may their respective legal counsels please step forward and introduce themselves?” Judge Grant said.The lawyers stepped forward, and one after the other, they all introduced themselves.Some of them pleaded guilty to some of the accusations being levelled against their clients and pleaded not guilty to some.Others pleaded guilty to all their accusations, while the lawyer of the pathologist pleaded not guilty to any of the charges, with evidence that he was not bribed and did his job according to how he was supposed to do it.Ava, Jake, Vincent and the pathologist filed for bail, promising to assist in the investigations and present themselves to court whenever they were needed to be present in court.The previous suspects who had pleaded not guilty to their

Ike continued his speech, reading from the paper in his hand and delivering the summary to the court.“According to the testimonies and the statements by all the suspects, the gang kidnapped Mr Richard Smith while he was on his way to do a pizza delivery.He was moved straight to Mr Ethan’s residence while he was at work.His wife, now ex-wife, Miss Ava Turkson, was in the house.Mr Jake Allswell was also in the house with Miss Ava, waiting for the gang to bring in Mr Richard Smith.Mr Richard was brought into the house of Mr Ethan, through the backyard, to avoid the witnesses of the neighbours.The security cameras at the house were intentionally put off by Miss Ava, and they used the backyard to avoid the cameras of the other neighbours.Mr Smith was stabbed in the neck by Jake Allswell and was left on the floor as he bled to death.Miss Ava was then stained with a red dye on her hands and clothes to make it look like she executed the murder.The pizza Mr Smith was supposed to deliv
CHAPTER 187
THE CASE FILEMiss Ava and Mr Jake went to the police station.They spoke to the then commissioner of police, Commissioner Quin, to make changes to the original statement that was written by Mr Ethan.The commissioner obliged after they negotiated the amount of money he was going to receive, which was paid on the spot.The original statement written by Mr Ethan was swapped with a fake one that was written by the commissioner, and that was what was presented to the court by the police.Mr Jake then went to see the pathologist at the mortuary and again bribed them to delay the reports of the autopsy.He did not succeed. The pathologist released the results to the court, but they were intercepted by the secretary, who had also been bought by Mr Jake.The autopsy results were never released to the court.Mr Jake then went ahead to see the lawyer assigned to Mr Ethan.He again bribed him to ensure that he did not defend Mr Ethan properly but instead pleaded guilty to all the charges levell

A RESTRAINING ORDER“Alright, counsel. You have a valid point. May the lawyer for Mr Jake Allswell please step into the witness box for questioning?” Judge Grant said Jake's lawyer immediately walked out and went to stand in the witness box, bowing his head.“Counsel. Tell us. Is it true you leaked the address of Mr Ethan here, which is supposed to be private and confidential information? What is your defence?” The judge asked the lawyer.“Your Honour. Firstly, I humbly admit that I gave my client's father the address of Mr Ethan here. However in my defence, the address was not given on a bad note, and was not leaked to the public.My client's gathering is also directly related to the case because his son is being prosecuted.So I believe he is not an outsider.Secondly, the address was not given to him on a bad note. It was not given with the intention of having an altercation with him or threatening him or any criminal activity, but that of peaceThey wanted to meet Mr Ethan to s

VERBAL SCHIZOPHRENIC Ethan and Mr David landed at the airport in Redwood “Looks like we are forgetting something,” Ethan said as they made their way to the car park where their cars were parked.“Really?” Mr David asked, raising an eyebrow“Yes. We had a meeting with Ava's lawyer. I am not sure I can make it, though. I have something else to do after here,” Ethan said.“Oh yes. I totally forgot about that too.Man I am also going into a meeting a few hours from now. I don't think I will make it either.” Mr David replied to him“That is no problem. I didn't want the meeting to be held anyway. You can just message him that the meeting won't hold. Either we schedule a new time and date, or it doesn't hold at all. Your call,” Ethan replied. “Okay. I will do that. I will just let him know the meeting won't be held. We can schedule a new time later,” Mr David said.“Alright then. I will see you later,” Ethan said and opened his car door as he got in.Mr David did the same, and they all d

AN EMOTIONAL MANEthan walked back to the living room with Mr Frost, and they sat down again before Ethan spoke to him.“I have observed them. This is honestly a very complex disease, and I have never seen such in my life, but I do believe I will be able to help,” Ethan said and paused.He looked at the man who was staring at him with a raised eyebrow.“You can?” Mr Frost asked in surprise.Ethan nodded in the affirmative to confirm.The man smiled.“Oh, thank heavens, Doctor. Thank you so much, Doctor. You are a godsent doctor,” Mr Frost exclaimed in happiness.Ethan interrupted him and spoke, maintaining his strict face.“It will take a few days before I can heal both of them completely, probably about three to five days, with today being inclusive.However, there are some strict rules and precautions to let you know.Firstly, this schizophrenic episode is not just a physical issue; it combines both physical and spiritual sides and it is a strong oneHowever, like I said, I will be a
