Chapter 14 Court Hearing
Jacob POV
John is here with me going to the office. He is interrogating me after I told her about Minty and I kissed incident.
You kissed your beautiful secretary and you are now telling me that you do not have sex??? He laughed
What happened to the almighty Jacob Jackson that I know??
John, she is different from other women out there. I will not treat her just like them and I have no intentions of just sleeping with her.... Whatever Jacob. Finally, you are whipped man.
I was wrong because I thought kissing her would satisfy me, but no because I want more...
Then get more Jacob...
Fuck, it is easy to say, but hard to do...
I know and it is very clear that I have feelings for her. Does she have also feelings for me??? Urghhh how can life be so complicated.
She responded on my kiss but it doesn't mean that she have feelings for me. After the kiss, I saw her reaction. I think she was disgusted. Your whipped man! John laughed
When I see her, we need to talk---
No. Jacob give her space. Maybe she needs to think. Like you said, she is different from those bitches you had.
Space?? John she is working for me.
When we parked the car and entered the company. I didn't greet anyone because what I want to see was only Minty.
I am expecting that she is already at the office taking calls or making some documents, but when I went to her office it was empty. What the fuck! Where is she?
Regardless of what happened, she still needs to be mature and work professionally.
I went to the reception, Pia!! Where is Minty?
We were informed this morning that she cannot go to the office today and he said that you know the reason behind it
How can I forget about it. This day is her father's court hearing. Damn, all I was thinking was the kissed...
John!!!! I shouted
Why??
You are in charge. I need to go somewhere.
Treat her nice Mr. Jackson said by Pia. She is a gem. I smiled at her.
Indeed, she was right.
Damn, I should not give Deniss a day off if I know this will happen.
I checked the time and there is still 1 and half hour left before the court hearing start.
I am calling Minty for many times but she doesn't take my calls. I know she will avoid me.
Finally! I said.
I am here now at the court looking for Minty. She was there sitting while reading some papers.
I think I am going to faint said by her bestfriend Tanya.
Minty glared at me.
Mr. Jackson?? She said.
Yes Ms. Kaynes??? So the professionalism was back I thought.
I told you that you will not come. She said angrily.
Like I said, I will come. Please do not start it again Minty.
Go! I do not want you to be here while folding his arms. She do this when she lied.
I smiled. I am doing this to you and I always do what I say.
Minty, its time. Said by her lawyer appearing behind the door.
She just nodded.
You can do it Minty. I know that you can.
I am scared Jacob. She whispered. I can see fear in her eyes. Her father traumatized her completely.
Do not be scared Minty. You ate doing the right thing. Just trust yourself. I am here for you. Believe me.
The judge signalled the officers to bring in the defendant. I can see how scared Minty but she needs to be tough.
If her father wins this case, I swear I will be the one to kill him. After all what he did to my precious. She doesn't deserve all of it. Minty POV
When I raised my head to see my father.
He was completely a mess.
His disheveled hair.
He looked awful.

Gone were the days where you can see him in his suit with drugs in his hands. Now, he was dressed in a tidy clothes where holes where just sewn.
His eyes that were filled with too much hatred were now lifeless and dull.
I inhaled sharply and just stared on the ground. He is sitting opposite to me. When I looked up, he is staring at me not with hatred, but trace of failure which he should be feeling right now after all what he did.
Ms. Kaynes, you are here now to present the evidence against Mike Smith for inflicting severe and mental pain against you? Is that correct?
Yes, your honor.
You can now present those evidence Mrs. Holmes
Thank you your honor. My lawyer stood up.
Your honor, I have known Minty for almost 8 years since I am not just her lawyer but also a friend. This man which his father inflicted him severe physical and mental pain----
Objection your Honor! Said by his lawyer Ron Tui loudly.
Yes Mr. Tui? Said by the Judge
Do they have proof to show about their claims your honor or all of it are just allegations?
Your Honor, with all due respect. Here are the photos of my client showing all of her scars that her father inflicted upon her.
I pressed my lips into a thin line as I saw the judge scanning all the photos that were submitted.
A tear escape from my eyes. I am nervous about this court hearing result and also Ace is calling me countless times asking for my forgiveness. Plus, the hot kissed that we shared with my boss. All of these things were occupying my mind and I cant be in peace.
After the Judge scanned the photos, there were lots of questions and evidences filed.
I just hoped that this case come to a good ending because I am really so tired. I think I cannot handle more stressed and pain. I think my mind and body cannot take it anymore.
I just hoped a good ending.......
