THE CEO WHO SAVED ME by Becca

TWO MONTHS LATER. It was the day of Kathleen and her daughters' trial, almost everyone wanted to attend the trial because the crimes they were being charged with were far more than what they could ever imagine.

The six of them were seated quietly in the prison, three months had already passed since the day Damian threw them into prison and in these three months, some of them had a rethink about their lives but does that really matter now when they were about to be taken to jail forever?

"Mum" Jennie called almost in a whisper. She looked so thin and malnourished from the hard work she had to endure in the prison these past months. The Jennie who once commanded respect anywhere she went, now looked like a wretched pauper.

"Yes" Kathleen replied, she also looked defeated like she had never been rich before. "So did Amy win at last?" She had a defeated look on her face as she asked.

"Are you seriously thinking about that right now Jennie?" Gwen asked in anger," do you think we will ever be able to get out of here alive?" She asked.

"Kathleen, you have really ruined the lives of your children "it was pete who spoke from the far end of the cell.

"Oh shut up Pete, all this is your fault. If you didn't betray me for this bastard you call a son, we would still be living our lives"

Gwen scoffed," you all are pathetic

They were still involved in their heated argument when the prison door opened and some prison guards entered. "Time for your trial" one of them said and they began to take them out into the waiting van to convey them to the courthouse. Dressed in a pair of a black gown that was free on her body, she looked simple yet extravagant. Her baby bump was already very visible, it was already six months.

Amy sat on the sofa waiting for Damian to come out so they could make their way to the courthouse.

وو

Babe" he called from the stairs walking up to her. "Yes hubby".

"Are you sure you can make it? You are already tired most of these days and now you have to testify in court. I really don't want you to be stressed. She cupped his face in her palms," it's just a matter of a day baby, after today we will just focus on our lives".

"I will stand in the witness dock with you okay?"

"Okay baby, you can, let's get going". "Okay, what about father?" He asked, helping her to stand up." He left with Rubby and Jem already," she replied and they made their way to the car.

The five six of them, Kathleen, Gwen, Jennie, Pete, Delvin and even Ailda were all standing in the criminal dock when the big boss entered with his wife, everyone couldn't help but admire the lovely couple who just entered, they commanded the right amount of respect they deserved.

Anger flashed through Jennie's face as she saw Amy enter, why did she get to be happy and she would suffer in jail with her family.

Soon enough, the court proceedings started. Everyone was anticipating the punishment that would be given to them, they all committed hideous crimes except Delvin who was sued for defamation but that does not mean big boss would allow him get away with breaking his wife's heart like that.

"Mrs Amy martins, can you please step into the witness box" the court clerk said and Amy made her way to the box and as usual, her doting husband followed her.

"Can you tell this honorable court what you know about the case".

"Well sir" she cleared her throat and narrated everything that has transpired between her and her family, right from the day she was pushed off the Cliff till the day they were arrested. When she finished, she was in tears because the pain she has endured in the hands of her family was greater than what she has done to them" "We will go for a twenty minutes recess and we are back, I will give my verdict" the judge said and everyone stood up as he walked out. Amy walked to where they were all standing, she had a look of victory on her face.

"Finally, I got the last laugh" she said the moment she walked up to them, Damian beind her.

"You have not won Amy" Jennie snapped. "You really think you are in a position to cause me harm now?" She asked. " Just go away Amy" Kathleen retorted, she looked around and her eyes caught Sabastian, he was glaring at her angrily. She quickly looked away out of guilt. "You finally gave me my punishment Amy" Delvin spoke up after a while. " Don't get ahead of yourself Delvin, you don't matter, now I will wait and watch how you all take the punishment the judge will give". "Come baby, you have stood for a long time, come and sit and have some rest" Damian said Looking at all of them threateningly. "Okay hubby" she replied, smirking at them one last time, she turned and walked away Twenty minutes later, the court resumed its proceedings. It was time for the verdict, the lives of the five of them depended on the verdict of the judge now, all the reporters, the public and everyone gathered were all waiting in anticipation of what was to come. "Now my judgment" came the judges voice through the microphone and some people's hearts skipped a beat," due to the gravity of the situation, I hereby sentence Ailda Minkar to twenty years in prison mentioned due to her involvement in the underworld. For Delvin Dane, you are hereby sentenced to five years imprisonment for defamation and working in cohorts with the criminals". The whole courtroom was in an uproar, Delvin felt like his life was over and Ailda had tears gushing down her eyes. If she didn't accept this job to work for Jennie she would still be a free bird. Kathleen and her daughters were standing on edge right now because it was their turn to get their own punishment. "For Mrs Kathleen Sabastian, Gwen Sabastian and Jennie Sabastian, I hereby sentence you to life imprisonment without an option of a fine" as soon as the words left his mouth, the whole court began to clap, the verdict was what they wanted for these hideous criminals.

Tears of defeat finally fell out of Jennie's eyes. She had finally lost to her sister and she would suffer for it for the rest of her life.

"I have finally won" Amy mouthed and she knew they all saw her, the grin on her face was wide like she just won a lottery. They all had their faces bent in shame as they were led out of the office, coming to Amy and Sabastian's side, Kathleen stood. "You finally won," she said looking at her husband. "And I will enjoy your doom," he replied. "Mother, I hope in your next life, you will think carefully before hurting others" Amy said mocking and turned to Jennie," I won sis, I won' saying that she glared at all of them, "I hope you all rot in jail and Delvin please be reformed when you get out". Damian who just stood and was looking didn't say anything but when he noticed Amy had stood for long, he walked up to her. "Wife, let them go now, they have already been reduced to nothing". "Of course hubby, we need to celebrate," she replied smiling. " Let's go father" Damian said and the trio walked out of the courthouse, leaving the six of them looking ashamed and defeated.

Aside from the two couples, the whole public was happy because the criminals finally got what they deserved for all the pain they caused to their power couple and a lot of others, even Pete was not left out of the squabble as he also received his own share of punishment. This was the perfect end for the evil people.
