BILLIONAIRE IN SECONDS

Ethan drove to his apartment after his session with Mr Eric Blackwood.

It was just a few minutes before 10:00 p.m. when he settled down on a couch in his living room.

He sat down and heaved a heavy sigh of relief as he picked up his laptop from the table in front of him.

The air conditioning in the room was set to twenty-four degrees, perfect enough for him to feel comfortable

He had changed the channel on the TV to play some R&B music, which he was slowly nodding his head to and singing along softly with.

In his hand, he held the black card Mr Reginald Frost had given him a few hours ago.

He wanted to check how much was on that card to see if Mr David was right about what he had told him about the card

The first information he was able to find about a card was the fact that there were only five people who held that card, and the first name he saw was that of Mr Reginald Frost.

Ethan was puzzled as he stared blankly at the screen. He had now confirmed t

    THE COURT IS PLEASEDThe place went quiet again as they all waited for Judge Grant to speak.He finally looked up and addressed the audience.“Alright, thank you, Mr David. Now it is time for the defendants to cross-examine the witness. Do you have anything to say or any questions to ask?” Judge Grant asked him.The defendant stood up and quickly said,“No, no, your honour. I... I... I do not have any questions to ask.” He stammered to the court.Mr David grinned in victory.He could tell that Lawyer Ryan was scared.“Alright then, that is not a big deal. Mr Ethan, personally, I have a few questions for you.Where did you learn the skills you have? You claim to have the training and certification in it. Where did you learn all the skills of alternative medicine and how to use them to treat people? I want to know where you got your training from.” The judge asked Ethan.“Your honour, I learnt it while I was in prison. I was friends with a man back then, and he was able to use this alte

    ANOTHER PIECE OF EVIDENCE“Thank you, Mr Ethan. However, you didn't answer the parts on the state you found Keziah in before you started your treatment with her.” Mr David asked him, trying to pinpoint where he had skipped in his narration. Ethan quickly realised his mistake. “Oh, sorry. I forgot about that. The state I found her in was very bad. She was almost like a corpse. She lay on the bed flat and could not move by herself. The only part of her body she could move was her eyes. And she could only move them slowly when people entered her room or when people approached her. She could not move her hands, feet or any other part of the body apart from her eyes. She was being fed through a tube that was connected from her mouth through to her throat. That sent her food down to her stomach. She wore a diaper to be able to hold her faecal matter and urine until she was changed, as she could not control her bowel muscles. She was being taken care of by an assigned private nurse who

    THE ILLEGAL DOCTORThe place remained totally quiet as Mr David sat down and the judge noted some things on his paper. Everybody waited for him to speak and to give their order on what next they were supposed to do. After about two minutes of waiting silently for the judge to speak, he finally looked up at the audience and spoke. He began by heaving a heavy sigh and picking up his gavel. “Ladies and gentlemen, this has been an intense one. A lot of the evidence has been submitted and this cause needs to critically look at it. However, we do not have a lot of time on our side so we will proceed with the remaining witnesses and see what you can achieve within the remaining time you have. May we have the second witness from the plaintiff, please?” Judge Grant said.Mr David stood up enthusiastically and spoke. “Your honour I would like to call into the witness box Mr Ethan Stone, also known as Doctor Ethan. The doctor who healed my client of her ailments when she was paralysed but b

    FINALLY EXPOSEDThe courtroom fell silent for a minute as Mr David took his seat. It was almost as if everyone was trying to process what had just happened. Even the judge was quiet as he noted something vigorously on a piece of paper in front of him. When he was finally done, he looked up at the audience and began speaking. “Alright, you may take your seat, Mr Eddy. There has been an intense moment here in the court. And I kind of like how this is going. Now, before we proceed with this case, I would like to have a view of the CCTV footage together with everyone here in the court. I will hand this pen drive over to the technical team right here for them to show us what exactly is on the pen drive. So, technical team, please set up your tools and get this pen drive playing.” He said it as a signal to a guy in the corner.The moment he finished speaking, the two TVs right behind the judge, positioned clearly for the audience to see, came to life. A third one in the middle of the

    PIN YOU DOWN“...During the Period of dating between you and Ms Keziah Anderson, did you ever go to her house, in the presence or absence of her parents?” Mr David asked him.“Yes, I had gone there once or twice to see her,” Eddy replied.“I see, so in that case, what really stopped you from using that same opportunity to go see her when you tried reaching out to her and she was not reachable?Don't you think it would have been better to go see her in person, just like you were doing when you were dating?” Mr David asked him.“I don't know, but I didn't think of that. I just thought she had just cut me off and I just respected her decision.” Eddy respondedMr David smiled and turned to the judge.“Your honour, have no further questions but before I take my seat, I would like to point out a few things to the court.The first i have here is a fact that Mr Eddy here is trying to hide from this court.Your honour, I would like for it to be on record that, the facial Ventures was declared

    TIME TO CRACK THE NUTSThe lawyer smiled.“We have the answer now.It is clear that my client owned the place, as he had said earlier, and the prosecution was only trying to fabricate lies and connect my client with a crime he had no idea of,” Lawyer Ryan said.“I have no further questions,” he added, making his way to his seat.Judge Grant nodded in agreement. “All right. Now may the prosecution also approach the bench and ask their questions, if they have any,” Judge Grant said, motioning to Mr David.Mr David stood up and approached the witness box, ready to ask Eddy some questions.“Mr Eddy…” he began.“You say that you own the place, as stated to be owned by Facial Ventures, claiming you are the CEO of Facial Ventures and that the house still belongs to you. Did I get that right?” he asked.Eddy nodded.“Of course, it is mine,” Eddy responded.“Great.Your honour, let me state clearly that the assertion that Mr Eddy here owns that place is a blatant lie.Mr Eddy was just a shareh
