It was time. No more lives will be hurt and no more lies will be heard.
"Listening to all the accuses from our witnesses and judging rightfully, I hereby announce Mr. Jake's nonguilty. While Mr. James will be followed up to prove that the accusations against him are not guilty."
Everyone exists and Ciara rushes to hug Jake with her son by her side.
Katty joins them in their triumph.
Kiara is free for a moment so Leonel takes advantage to poison her. However, the person he collaborates with turns against him because he cares more about Kiara than the money handed to him.
While Katty and Ciara plan everything with the help of Romaine and his power.
It was time for Brithney to be questioned and in all those moments, evidence pilled up from different angles.
Romaine met with Mr. Sergei.
"What a pleasure to meet you Sir" Mr. Sergei greets extending his hand.
Romaine receives gracefully "Same to you Sir. Sergei"
"What brings you in this territory?" He says reciprocally.
"Two things brought me here. First of all, I wish to tell you I am a very generous and patient man. I have known your company for a long time now. And I know how close you were to Leonel's dad. So I want you to please help me called his lawyer out."
Mr. Sergei is silent. He thought no one knows about his knowledge concerning his dad but Romaine erased that off his mind.
"I know you alone know where he is. Again, in exchange for your competent, I'm here to hand you this document"
Mr. Sergei takes the documents from his hands and reads them. Once he goes through the first page, he freezes.
"Your 'boss', tried to sell this company to me. And I was ready to buy it in other so that I could give it to someone I trust on taking good care of it. And you were the one I saw. So you are now the rightful owner of this enterprise. Congratulations Sir"
He forwards his hand and Mr. Sergei accepts almost unbelievably.
"Keeping aside the fact that you have done this, I was ready to help you in finding his lawyer because he has so much to say. However, he was scared of Leonel. Though now he is ready to bear the consequences of his act"
"I'd be so pleased. Thanks a lot"
He smiles
...
There was no way Mr. Leonel could win over this. Every dark was exposed by the light. The light of the truth.
Mr. Julian and her husband, Mr. Steve, and his wife, Saffi, Leonel's wife was summoned and his dad's doctor. Each person Leonel ever came across talked about him negatively.
And out of nowhere appeared Donald, Kiara, and Leonel'sdad'sd personal lawyer. The will was read and every secret contract was exposed. When Mr. Julian knew about the contract his wife made in partnership with Damien then Leonel, because of fame, he became so disappointed. Saffi wept on her side.
"They lie!" Leonel yelled and the judge looked at him "Be quite Mr. Leonel"
Mr. James was silent all through. He knew he failed and his life ended there. The charges were beyond repair.
"From the counts and justifications are given here on by the witnesses. I hereby sentence Mr. Leonel to life imprisonment. And Mr. James 46Years imprisonment. While our accuse Miss. Brithney is found nonguilty and is released now"
The case was closed and the families came together. While Mrs. Julian apologized to her daughter and her husband, Mr. Steve and his wife came to join them. They deserved an apology from her for keeping their son's death from them.
Romaine walked over towards Brithney. And once she saw him coming she looked down.
But as soon as he was close to her, she hugged him. He was shocked but not as shocked as Leonel who was peeking from a distance and held to be carried away.
Romaine caressed her instantly, and she welcomed his touch.
"It's ok now. It's over"
Romaine was given all of Leonel's dad's property according to the will. While the portion which was given to Damien was handed to Saffi. So her parents were working under her.
Brithney's parents were realized finally and everything about the contract was not true but that didn't change the fact that they drove their daughter away.
However, she forgave them.
Apriva was absent the whole time but when she came back with her soon-to-be wedded husband Jeol, Fred re-proposed to Katty and they got married immediately.
Ciara got big with her second child after Jake proposed to her too.
Brithney fulfilled her dreams of traveling to places and being the tourist she always wanted to be. Romaine accompanied her and they got to spend more time with one another and know each other truthfully.
Months later, she sent an invitation letter to her friends who were now in their married homes.
This was what they all waited for. Brithney was getting married to her true love. The love she didn't expect to find with anyone. And yes, this love saved her.
What else can we say?
Patients, long-suffering, and endurance was the key to her success as she lived happily ever after.
The End!
