Hey there people!
Okay i told you guys i have no clue about anything related to laws, i'm just writing this in the way i want it to go!
So just enjoy the story and forget everything you know about laws and yes i know Beck's uncle is a bad person.
"That is impossible" Jade exclaimed surprised "I have only been sexually involved with Beck" she informed.
"That's not what those gentlemen say" Brad exclaimed.
"They are lying" Jade raised said upset.
"Twenty seven words against yours, that doesn't sound like a lie to me, you slept with those men and cheated on Beck Oliver, how do you expect us to believe he tried to rape you?" Brad questioned.
"He did" Jade raised her voice; she had tears in her eyes by that point.
"No, he did not, you're lying and you know it" Brad raised his voice too.
"STOP IT" Jade screamed and stood up; she ran towards Tori and hugged her.
"Alright, since Miss West doesn't want to talk anymore I'll introduce you to my twenty seven witnesses" Brad informed and various men walked into the court.
They all sat down in the corner and Brad called them one by one "So Mr. Mark, could you please share your experience with Jade West with us?" Brad asked.
"Sure, well I was at this party back a year ago and I saw her drinking a beer and she was hot so I talked to her for a few hours, she wanted to be in a more private place so we went to my car and well, we had sex in there" The twenty year old man exclaimed.
"Just like that?"
"Yep, it was one of the hottest nights of my life" Mark chuckled.
"Thank you, that's all" Brad said and the man stood up.
"Okay Mr. Bryan, tell us what happened the night you met Jade West" Brad exclaimed.
"Okay, um I was driving around at night and I saw her walking alone so I offered her a ride because I thought it was dangerous for a pretty girl like her to be alone that late, she immediately said yes and got in my car, we drove around and she invited me into her house and well, we slept together…. If you know what I mean" the twenty five year old man explained.
"THAT IS A LIE" Jade stood up madly.
"Miss Jade, please remain in silence" The judge ordered and Jade sat down upset.
"Mr. Alan, please share your experience with us" Brad demanded to the forty and something year old man; he could easily be mistaken as Jade's father.
"I met her at a coffee shop, she was alone and I talked to her, we talked for hours and she asked me to give her a ride because her car wasn't working, I agree but instead we went to a hotel and she convinced me to get in….. And well, it happened" the man said embarrassed.
"What happened?" Brad asked.
"I had sex with her okay, I still regret doing it, it cost me my marriage and my family" the man said sadly.
"So you pretty much had a perfect life until you met Jade West?"
"Yes, it's sad to think this kind of young women are the future generation" he said and stood up, Jade was just there listening and exploding in rage because they were all lying, they all agreed they had met her either at coffee shops, bars, parties or just in the street.
Brad was questioning almost the last witness "Okay, you affirm you had sex with Jade two months ago right?"
"Yes, I met her at a bar and invited her to my apartment, she said yes and we slept together… well, actually we did everything but sleep" the twenty seven year old man chuckled "It was a pretty good night but she left in the morning, she had to go to school but she gave me her number"
"Her number? Could you please call the number she gave you?" Brad demanded and the man nodded, everyone remained in silence and Jade's phone rang. "Thank you, that's all"
By the time Brad finished talking to the fake witnesses Jade's reputation was on the floor and there was nothing she could do about it.
"Okay Mr. Oliver, could you please describe your relationship with Jade West?" Brad questioned and Beck nodded.
"We'd been dating for over three years and our relationship was perfect" Beck said.
"So you never fought?" Brad asked confused.
"No, no I mean obviously we had discussions and arguments but we would always fix them, Jade was a loving girlfriend, I was the only person who could see that side of her personality, it was magic" Beck commented with a smile on his face.
"Have you ever hit her?"
"No" Beck immediately responded "Well, I did once…. We were at school and she was getting on my nerves, she wouldn't quit screaming so I slapped her but that was the only time, I don't know why she is saying I've been abusing her; it's a lie"
"She also affirms you've tried to rape her" Brad commented.
"That is a lie too, I could never, the times Jade and I have had sex have been wonderful and we both have agreed to do it" Beck commented.
"So you're telling me Jade is lying about everything" Brad said.
"No, I did hit her once but I told you, I apologized and I felt really bad, I still do… I love Jade more than my own life, I can't believe I hurt her but I don't want to spend years in jail for something I already regret doing" Beck exclaimed, he looked so innocent and nice, everyone in the court except for Jade and Tori could have sworn he was saying the truth.
"What do you want? How do you expect this to end?" Brad questioned.
"I expect this to end in the best possible way, I don't wanna go to jail and I hope Jade can forgive me some day, she is a wonderful young woman, I was so stupid for not appreciating her but I hope someone else does, she deserves to be happy" Beck commented, Jade was looking down because obviously everyone thought she was the villain of the story.
"Thank you, that's all" Brad sat down and Jade's lawyer stood up.
"So you're saying you didn't abuse Jade or try to rape her" he said and Beck nodded. "Well, there are people who affirm they've seen you hit her"
"Those are probably Jade's friends, they were at school the day I slapped her" Beck commented.
"Um no, there are other two people who affirm they saw you beating her up" the lawyer exclaimed and Beck looked at him confused, he didn't know the maids were in the house the time he hit her.
"That must be a mistake" Beck said nervously.
"It's not, the maids of Jade's house saw you beating her up and they're gonna be here testifying" the lawyer informed "That's all" Beck walked towards Brad with a nervous facial expression and one of the maids walked into the court.
"Could you please tell us what you saw?" The lawyer asked.
"I saw Miss Jade's boyfriend dragging her upstairs by her hair, we hid and when he left we went to her room, she was on the floor completely beaten up and the living room was a disaster" the woman explained.
"Thank you" the lawyer went back to his sit and Brad stood up.
"How long have you been working with the West's?" he asked coldly.
"Almost nine years" the woman said.
"So you pretty much have seen Jade grow up" Brad commented and the woman nodded "How can we be sure you are not lying to help her?"
"I'm not lying" the maid responded.
"That's what you say but we can't be sure" Brad said "That's all" he walked back towards Beck.
"Okay, we'll take a ten minutes long break and we'll come back to hear the verdict" the judge informed and everyone walked out of the court.
"I swear I don't know any of those men" Jade immediately said.
"Are you sure?" Tori's dad questioned.
"DAD" Tori exclaimed upset.
"Sorry honey but we have to be sure" he answered.
"Yes, I am sure, I have never seen them in my life" Jade informed.
"Well, that lawyer is tricky and has no ethic but he is good, I am afraid they might win this" Mr. Vega commented worriedly.
"Where did you get all those men?" Beck questioned curiously.
"People do incredible things for money and those men were desperate" Brad answered.
"They are pretty convincing" Martha exclaimed and Brad nodded proudly.
"However I'm not sure if you'll get out of this so easily, I wasn't expecting the maid to testify… the good part is even if they find you guilty in the charge of physical abuse, we can get you out with money and you'll only have to stay away from Jade" Brad commented and Beck nodded, a few minutes later they all got back in court to hear the verdict.
"In the charge of attempt of rape how do you find the defendant?"
"We find the defendant not guilty" the woman of the jury informed and Jade closed her eyes in frustration.
"In the charge of physical abuse, how do you find the defendant?"
"We find the defendant…"
;)
I hope you enjoyed the chapter! :)
I know Brad is a bad person and he could get in trouble but Beck's his nephew after all, however what goes around comes around, you'll see ;)
Yes, i know you want Beck to spend the rest of his life in prison but i can't do that yet, Jade's parents still have to come back!
