A/N: I would like to thank 'charmed-barmed-oc', Red lighting, and Idinakirstinfan. Special thanks to:
Alexlivilla70: I promise that what happens to Martin in the end will be worth it.
RebelByrdie: I love that idea. And we can get more girls, like his exes, who would love to stomp all over him. And I'm really considering having Serena come into the story. I don't know when my surgery will be but I'll keep you posted. But don't worry I'll find a way to write a chapter through the pain. I'm already in love with both of them.
Javalover27: You thought you hated him before, but your hate for Martin will go to an all-new level after this chapter. And yay to vacation. I get out of school in about two weeks. I'm already developing vacationitis too. Which is bad because I take my SAT's this weekend.
Color Esperanza: Yeah, Alexander Oliver Novak. Interesting name. I like it. I think I'm gonna use that. Thanks. Oh and you'll find out more about what Casey meant at the end of the last chapter.
A/N 2: By the way, wow I had something important to say, but I can't remember what it was. It was in mind my all throughout while I was writing this. Oh yeah, I just wanted to thank everyone again for being so great. I have done fan fiction on other sites and I've never updated them this quickly on the others. You guys make me want to update as much as I can. You are all my inspiration. So I just thought I would let you know that.
As always, enjoy!
Chapter Four
Do you really want to deal with a hormonal blonde attorney right now?
Alex walked into Mark James office an hour after Casey had called her and Olivia. Mark was Martin's lawyer and she was determined to find out why he was suing for the abortion of Casey's baby. Alex strolled into the office and bypassed the secretary. She was not in the mood to wait until Mark was free. She was so mad right now that she didn't care if she interrupted his meeting with the President of the United States.
"You can't go back there," shouted Mark's secretary.
Alex just kept walking. She was dressed for the intimidation. She wore her normal dress suit and her glasses were perched on her nose. She threw the door to Mark's office open nearly taking it off its hinges. Mark leaped to his feet surprised at her entrance. Alex and Mark knew each other well. They had gone to law school together. They were always competing against each other in everything they did. But when they left law school they had went down different paths. While Mark accepted a position in a private law firm Alex had gone on to become an ADA and now the Bureau Chief. She had replaced Elizabeth Donnelly.
"Alex, this is a surprise," Mark said as he composed himself once more.
Alex glared at Mark with icy blue eyes from behind her black-framed glasses. She saw him unconsciously squirm under her gaze. She was glad that she was able to elicit that much fear without saying a word. It was how she was amazing in a courtroom. It was also why Mark would fail.
"You have a client Mark, Martin Johnson," Alex said getting right to the point.
"You know I can't discuss…"
"I'm Casey Novak's' attorney. Do you really think that a court will say that she needs to have her pregnancy terminated?" demanded Alex.
Alex saw the hope drain out of Mark's eyes. She knew that if Casey had gotten any lawyer than he probably would have had a chance of winning. But Alex was the stepping into the ring. She would slow down the case so much that by the time trial came about it would be too late to terminate Casey's pregnancy. She had his case in the palm of her and she could do what she wanted at any time. There wasn't a judge out there that didn't respect either Alex or Casey. No one would believe a word of what Martin Johnson said about her. Not if she had the most respectable lawyer on her side.
"He's a very high paying client Alex," Mark told her, "And besides he tells me that she told him she couldn't get pregnant. Why should he suffer from her mistake?"
"Last time I talked to her she didn't want anything to do with that dirt bags money. She can raise that child on her own without his help. She has enough people helping her."
Alex just warned him about how much paperwork she could bury him under before strolling back out of the office. She didn't want to surround herself or the baby inside of her with dumb ignorant people. She would only give herself a headache with all that drama. She flipped out her cell phone and dialed Olivia. She quickly told her the news. Olivia was horrified that Martin would try that route but was glad that Alex was on the case. Alex had never lost a case as easy as this. Alex knew how she could win even more. She drove over to Branch's house. She knew that he had the day off today. It was his first day off in forever it seemed like. He answered the door two minutes after she knocked.
"Alexandra, what can I do for you?" Branch asked.
"I need your help," she told him, "It's about Casey Novak."
A/N: I know, I know. But again I say I have a concert and I have to clean my room. I promise tomorrows chapter will be much longer. That goes for We Meet Again as well. Review and make me so happy.
