FLASHBACK*
“Ladies and gently men of the jury, have you reached the verdict?” Judge Wilson asked
A man stood
“Yes your honor,” he replied instantly
“Objection your honor biased,” Danica quickly objected
She has no solid evidence and if she allows them to rule then Donovan will definitely sit on that chair
“Excuse me Miss Greenwood, who is biased?” Judge Wilson asked, a big frown on his face
Samantha couldn’t believe it
“You your honor, considering this kind of case,” she replied with a straight face
“We are in recess till tomorrow, counsel approach,” Judge Wilson hit the gravel

END OF FLASHBACK*
“Do you how many people I fought and provided justice for?” She asked
Just then the doorbell ranged, and they exchanged glances
Anna hasn’t come home for a week now, could she be the one?
Laura went and opened the door
“Where is Danica?” Alex asked immediately after she came in
“in her room,” Laura replied but Alex was already gone before she could finish
Ashley ran after her like a puppy
She rushed upstairs at high speed pushing the door open without knocking
“Ashely just confessed, she said it was Stabler, Nathan, and Brooks….”
“Who is Brooks?” Danica asked surprised and confused
“Nathan Brooks, what do you think?” Alex asked, already packing the files on the floor
“Arrest them,” Danica stood and took her clothes on the bed, going over to the door
“I already did,” Alex went after her
Ashley followed them

{ANNA}
“I’m leaving the city but I will be back whenever he’s coming back,” Anna said over the phone
“he will not and it’s a good thing,” the person replied from the other side
The paparazzi came from nowhere and blocked her car
?️ How do you feel having your nude out there?
?️ “Is that video an inspiration?
?️Are you a secret porn star?
?️What do you have to say about that video?
Anna started shaking, if there is anything she h@tës then it was the press, hot sweat ran down her head and her breathing quickened
“Miss you have to come with us,” a cop said among the cop
Having no other choice she followed them, Camera lights from different angles blinded her

{COURT}
“Mom I know what I’m doing, okay? My husband is not guilty and I just have to prove it,” Danica said in a whisper
She is currently on a phone call with her mother
“Danica there is nothing you can prove, you tried, sometimes…”
“I tried but it wasn’t enough, I will prove it and what I need right now is for you to stop trying to get into my head,” Danica snapped cutting in
Danica ended the call and throw her phone at Alex, she caught it
**
Samantha went back to her chair after questioning Mr. Brooks, Danica stood with an angry look on her face
“Mr. Brooks why where you running?” Danica asked, stopping right before him
He scoffed
“I wasn’t running….”
“The FBI arrested you at the airport, when a man does something he stood his ground and welcome the consequences, only a coward run so what are you?” Danica asked leaning closer
“Watch your tongue, sweetheart,” Mr. Brooks said, meaning every word
“Or what? You’ll do what to me Mr. Brooks? You’re a powerless buffoon an entertaining clown, If you were just a little bit more intelligent, you would be a moron,” she said not raising her voice
“That’s it, I’m sick of this court and your joke of a lawyer,” he stood, ready to leave
“Sit down Mr. Brooks,” Judge Wilson said in a commanding tone
“Whimp?” Danica said out loud
“Objection,”
“Overruled,”
“You’re so disappointed at yourself that you can’t even stand up as a man…”
“I’m a man and I did those things,” Mr. Brooks suddenly lost it
“You did nothing, you’re as useless as a chocolate teapot,” Danica moved closer
Banging his fist against the desk Mr. Brooks stood on his feet, leaning forward
“Do you know how many people I have killed? I’m famous! Everybody is afraid of me, even the cops are scared of me….”
“They are not afraid of you, they only pity you cos you are nothing!!!” Danica cut in
“I’m something no one will ever wish for, I kill and clean with no trace so watch your mouth when I say so cos you might be my next victim,” Mr. Brooks fired back, he was so mad right now
How dare she challenge him? Who the h*ll is she?
“If you were this powerful you won’t have framed someone else….”
“I did it cos he’s father Füçked my wife, I wanted to make his life miserable and I did, killed his first girlfriend, scattered their family, switched their kids at birth, Donovan did nothing… in fact he is nothing!! I framed him and I’m not yet done, I gave his father a drink that damage his brain and I will do more, I AM A MAN!!” Mr. Brooks yelled at the top of his lungs, he was so angry that he felt the urge to kill
Danica smirked, just what she wanted, his angry side
“No further question your honor,” she returned to her sit a smirk on her face
Everywhere was silent like a graveyard
“Ladies and gentlemen of the jury have you reached your verdict?” Judge Wilson asked
A middle-aged man stood
“Yes your honor,” he replied simply
“6 counts R@PE in the first degree how do you find the defendant Mr. Donovan Cooper?” he asked staring at them
Everywhere was silent
Danica held her chest, she could hear her heartbeat and today was the last day, she didn’t visit him frequently like she always does cos
“Not Guilty your honor,” he said after a long period of silence
“6 counts murder in the first degree how do you find the defendant Mr. Donovan Cooper?” he asked
“Not guilty your honor,” he replied
“Robbery..”
“Not guilty,”
“ Manslaughter,
Not guilty,”
“17 counts assault,”
“Guity,”
“And impersonation how do you find the defendant Mr. Donovan Cooper?” he asked
Everywhere was silent
“Not guilty,” he finally said after a moment
Donovan’s eyes widened, did they just… not guilty? Does that… does that mean… does that…” he covered his mouth with his palm, fighting back tears
“Mr. Brooks I find you guilty of charges leaved against Mr. Cooper which you committed, I hereby sentenced you to the electric chair, this is my judgment,” he hit the gravel once
“Mr. Cooper bail post at 1 million, you’re a free man, this case is dismissed,” Judge Wilson hit the gravel again
Donovan’s joy knows no bounds, he rushed towards Danica with the thought of hugging her tightly
Danica was more than happy as she awaits him, her head suddenly spun and before you know it, she started going down but Donovan was fast to catch her before she could hit the ground
“Don’t forget to pay me,” Ashely said beside Alex and she chuckled
