Chapter 83
Mr Nelson and his family who was suffering in prison, his daughter’s managed to scrap out money and appealed for their case again hoping that they will let them out since Mr Nelson has been hospitalised for being beaten by the prison and after a week they went to court again.Each side agrued fiercely and Miriam didn't back down, after they said their part the judge nodded.“The court will give the final verdict in half an hour,” a voice rang out in the courtroom, eliciting a wave of murmurs from the crowd.“Finally, the day’s here.”“The bad blood between Andrew and the Nelson family runs deep. Who'll come out on top now?”“I'm backing Andrew; his lawyer's so good.”“The Nelsons aren't pushovers either.”“Wait and see, this will be interesting.”The crowd whispered among themselves, their eyes glued to two individuals seated behind a desk. Andrew and Miriam.Andrew was a business tycoon and billionaire; he was the country's most gossiped figure, with his name and photos appearing dai

Andrew’s phone buzzed in his pocket. He was standing by the window of his room with a mini picture frame of his late wife, Lily, in the soft grip of his fingers. Staring at her face in the picture frame had become a daily routine for him. He did it every morning before leaving for work. Sometimes, he found himself talking to her in the picture, allowing the tears that escaped his eyelids to trail down his cheeks without interference.He ignored the phone buzzing in his pocket. He was already accustomed to his phone buzzing over and over again. A lot of press houses were still eager to have a session with him about his victory against the Nelsons. They said he had single-handedly crushed everything Mr. Nelson and his family had spent years building under the rain and the sun.Some blogs portrayed him in a bad light, calling him vengeful and unforgiving. Those were the least of the things that bothered him. He still felt the Nelsons hadn’t been punished enough. He wanted to do more harm
Chapter 81
Mr. Nelson had thought his cell was hell while he was in custody, but upon his arrival at a maximum-security correctional facility where he had been sent to spend the rest of his life for his role in the murder of his daughter, he realised that the cell he had been incarcerated in during his detention was far better than the one in the correctional facility.The prisoners were on a break when he arrived in chains, followed by the bailiffs and police officers who had escorted him from his former detention facility to a place designed for lifers. They handed him over to the prison officials, who conducted a few checks on him before admitting him.They assigned him to a warden who led him to a room that was waiting for him. The room had four bunks. For crying out loud, he would, for the first time in his goddamn life, have to share a room with someone who wasn't family. He gulped. If only he had a way to get himself out of the facility as soon as possible and return to his house, he woul

Andrew woke up to the buzz of his phone in his pocket.Back in the days when Lily was alive, he wouldn’t have slept with his clothes and shoes on. But now that she was gone, finding himself fully dressed and wearing his shoes in the morning, after waking up on the sofa, had become such a routine that he found it difficult to break.He sat up, stretched his arms, and yawned. Then he stood up and slipped a hand into his pocket as he headed to the bathroom. It wasn’t a call; it was a notification. He glanced at it, his vision still blurry from sleep. It looked like a bank notification.He wiped his eyes and looked again. Indeed, it was a bank notification. His account had been credited with $200,000. He raised his brows. It was quick. He shrugged and returned the phone to his pocket before emptying his bladder in the toilet.He stepped out shortly afterwards, took off his shoes, and shoved them aside. Then he headed for his room, where he threw himself onto the bed. He slowly drifted bac

The court hearing resumed.This time, Andrew’s camp had many people who had volunteered to testify against the Nelsons. Most of them were staff members from the hospital. Some testified that they had conversations with Paul and learned from him that his parents had already prepared a donor. Little did they know that the donor was his sister.The Nelsons’ legal counsel tried their best to counter the testimonies, but each witness presented photographic evidence. More surgeons came forward, including those who had screened the heart before the transplant. Another testimony came as a blow to the face. A woman emerged from the team of experts who had screened the heart to confirm that it was a match before the transplant was performed.They had preserved blood samples from the tests, which matched Lily’s DNA after a series of tests were conducted. Paul, knowing full well that he had been exposed, bowed his head to his thighs, listening to every testimony that further condemned him.Soon,
chapter 78
Andrew opened the door to the press. Miriam arrived before the press and helped him arrange his living room for the conference. He was expecting over fifty people. The living room wasn’t big enough for that many, but at least it was spacious enough to accommodate the most important members of the press crews who would be attending.Soon, the press vans began to arrive one after another. They didn’t take turns setting up their equipment; they competed for space. Every news house wanted to be represented at the press conference. Andrew and Miriam had made sure the living room had enough ventilation to accommodate as many press crews as possible.The number was higher than they had anticipated. They had sent invitations to five media houses, but more than ten showed up. Perhaps the invitations had been leaked by insiders from the five media houses. Andrew didn’t turn the additional press crews away. He allowed them to set up their equipment, and when they were ready, he walked in, dresse
