The billionaire's secret crush

"Court arise." The voice of the court clerk echoed through the whole courtroom as the judge made his way in.

Finally, the day everyone has been waiting for has arrived. On this very day, the future of Cynthia is going to be decided by the judge.

Daniel has done all he could to prevent his mother from going to court because he knew that once she goes to court, there is nothing that is going to prevent her from going to jail except for divine intervention, but it seems that luck wasn't on his side because all his efforts proved abortive.

No one wanted to get himself involved in the case because it wasn't an ordinary case; it was a murder case.

Without hesitating, the judge entered the courtroom, emanating an aura of authority, and took his seat.

"Please be seated." The judge spoke authoritatively as his voice boomed commandingly, sending a hush through the courtroom.
