Diane's office

Andrea paced back and forth as Diane watched," They are looking at my whole case log everything that I won". Saying I tampered with evidence to get those wins which is complete and utter bullshit. I have worked my ass for years Diane I mean I would never do that Andrea continued.

And for some bogus anonymous tip saying otherwise I have the right to face my accuser she ranted. Diane watched the young woman " okay tell me about this evidence that says otherwise she asked.

" D iane it was planted there I never lock that drawer" Andrea says, I know but these are all questions that are going to be asked when you go before the review board the older woman says.

Which is month's away where does that leave my clients or the people i care for Andrea said. "Let's start by who has it out for you and has the power to do so Andrea because whoever it is wants you on ice and why Diane says.

What's the last case you won that pissed someone off she asked, the business Tycoon who stole my clients idea and got rich off it Andrea replies. But he doesn't have that kind of power Diane he is one of those spoiled rich pricks who are use to getting his way she finishes.

Could it be Corey because he knows I'm up for partner and he isn't he would go that far to make me look bad. Hey may be unethical but this is down right criminal Diane says, "THEN WHO DIANE BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHO WOULD HAVE IT OUT FOR ME Andrea said.

"I'm sorry this is just frustrating my career is on the line and I have no idea where it who is doing this she says. I just relax let me worry about Carly and Jason for now but you need to tell him Diane says.

"Ughh this is unbelievable you know" Andrea Saud running her hands through her long dark hair. I got to go she said walking towards the door " Andrea we will find out who is doing this I promise" Diane said as she nodded and left.

The Court House

As they walked into the courthouse they ran into Jordan with her sister and T.J "Curtis " she said staring at him. When J.T walked over and knelt down in front of Isaiah " are you sure about this Mr. Tavares" Yes i am Mr. Sterling. Okay Little man let's go do this and Elle i need to talk to you he said as they walked ahead leaving Curtis behind.

" Hey Jordan" Curtis said as he shook T.J's hand and nodded at Michelle

" That's all that you have to say to her after all you put her through" Michelle said with an attitude

Miche i can speak for myself Jordan said as she crossed her arms over her chest and " um let's go Aunt Michelle i think my mom can handle it from here T.J said leading her inside. " You know it isn't to late to end this you know and do the right thing and lead by example Michelle said facing Elena.

Is this what you really want to be ruined in front of your son so he and Curtis can see what a manipultive bitch your are she continue. All Elena did was smile " Its to bad your not as bright as you think your are and you will get yours too" she said sitting down.

Isaiah began to walk over to her when J.T put his hand on the boys shoulder making him look up at him. Not now Isaiah when this is over she will get hers i promise she thinks she has hit paid dirt and all she hit was dirt J.T spoke. " Baby boy Mami is okay i am a big girl don't worry alright she is just talking that is it she want 's me to be afraid.

But i know every move she is going to make before she makes it and trust me when i say this she is in for a real treat Elena said with a devious grin. " Look i'm sorry about all this Jordan i did try and get him to throw out the case but he would have no part of it. And just because we are not together anymore means i want to see you get hurt either Curtis finished.

See that is the thing is i still love you and i still want to be with you and i gave up on us to easily and you tried to stop me but i wouldn't hear it. And that i am sorry for but when she was cut off " Jordan i can't its too late I am with Elena now and we are expecting another child Curtis said apologetically.

" Oh wow she moves fast" Jordan said

" It's not like that Jordan none of us expected this but it is what he situation is he said It just kind of happen you know. I made a move and then she reacted but Jordan i get a second chances of being there for my child and my son Curtis said.

"So your staying in Miami what about your and Stanford 's PI firm" Jordan asked as her heart broke but maybe it was better this way because she wasn't fully over Tommy. She realized that she had been using people to fill the void of him not being here and his little brother was the closes thing to him. But that wasn't fair to Curtis she thought, " Oh we dissolved the business" he said.

But I got a job with Drew and i still can be an PI for their firm on a larger scale and Stan is in the IT department with K.K Curtis said. When he saw Sam approach just as Jordan was getting ready to speak " hey what are you doing here" he asked as Jordan turned and went into the courtroom. "I'm here for Isaiah just like Elle would do the same for mines Sam replied as he lead her in.

Jordan took her seat with T.J, Michelle and a few of officers behind her as Anna walked in she smiled and came put her hand on Jordan's shoulder. " Hey everything is going to be alright she said to the younger woman as she took her seat. Her lawyer started by saying this is a blatant suit against Mrs. Ashford to ruin her career done by a jealous woman who is using her son to do so.

We have character witness to attest to the fact that Ms. Tavares is no victim she went out her way to provoke my client she said. As Andrea came in and sat behind Jordan when she looked over she notices Sam sitting next to Elena. She sighs and shakes her head " go figure they would know each other" Andrea thought to herself.

Mr. Sterling do you have anything to say the judge asked, " No your honor" he responds with a big smile. Well Ms. Stanton you may start the judge said, thank you your honor i call Mr. Thomas Ashford Jr. to the stand. Jordan watched as T.J took the stand Mr. Ashford do you think your mother abuses her power she asked him.

' No my mother is very by the book even when i was wrongfully arrested she let the justice system do its job" he answered.

"Have you ever known your mother to be hostile or volatile" Ms. Stanton says

"Off course not" he replies

Ok Mr. Ashford have do you know prior to this alleged incident Ms. Tavares or her son" she asked him

Before the alleged incident no i mean i saw them but i didn't know them T.J says

"Do you know them now Mr. Ashford" she asked

" barely he hasn't been receptive of my mother and i " T.J says

Thank you Mr. Ashford no more questions Ms. Stanton said

Mr. Sterling the judge said J.T never made a move " i don't have any questions for this witness" he said sitting in his chair Next character witness. They called several witness to the stand who spoke on Jordan's behalf J.T waited and waited patiently.

When they called him we call our final witness Nehemiah Foster to the stand Ms. Stanton and Michelle sat with a smug look on there faces. Elena sat unbothered by any of it " Mr. Foster what made you fly out here when your heard of Mrs. Ashford situation she asked.

"I didn't want to see another persons life and dreams ruined by Ms. Tavares"he answered.

"How do you Ms. Tavares" Ms. Stanton questioned

" we use to be acquainted until she made it her business to ruin me see M.s Tavares is very good at playing the victim. She does and says small things knowing just how to get a reaction out off people to make them look guilty he said.

Do you believe she would use her son to do just that the woman asked

" yes i do ma'am " he answered

"Thank you Mr. Foster i have no further questions for this witness" Ms. Stanton said

He began to stand up when J.T approached have a seat Mr. Foster if that is what your going by theses days. In that moment that's when Michelle saw her friend enter the courtroom she smiled and waved at him when she saw him and her friend sit next and greet Elena. She looked on confused he just winked at her , Umm Mr. Foster you never said how you knew Ms. Tavares J.T asked matter of fact did you tell or Ms. Stanton who you really are.

I mean Mr. Nehemiah Jones formerly of the florida state penitentiary for several counts of rape, drugging and sexual misconduct and as Michelle and Ms. Stanton looked on in horror. So how do you really know Ms. Tavares he said with a grin " oh i know how you were her ex boyfriend am i'm right" J.T continued.

" Yes" he answered begrudgingly

'And why were you in jail Mr. Jones i mean Mr. Foster 'J.T said saracastically

"I was excused and i only went to jail because she lied on me' Nehemiah answered angrily

"Really is that so all the other people that came forward lied as well huh Mr. Foster" he asked

The man's blood was boiling they were so sure he could finally have his revenge Yes Nehemiah said. So everyone is jut lying on you huh Mr. Foster you were an 19 year old predator who sought out Ms. Tavares because she was a sixteen year old girl in college. And you thought she would be easily manipulated and caught you am i right anyway do you know Isaiah Tavares where you present when these incident with Mrs Ashford happened or are you just looking to trash Ms. Tavares.

Nehemiah didn't answer " You can step down Mr. Jones or Foster" J.T said as the man left the stand. All day i heard of either Mrs. Ashford or Ms. Tavares but no one gave one thought to the little boy in what this case is really about. Ms. Stanton will have you believe that this case is about Ms. Tavares and it isn't its about a little boy who saw something wrong and wanted justice for his mother.

This case is solely about Mrs. Ashford mistreatment and mishandling of Ms. Tavares who had no idea her son was thinking suing Mrs. Ashford until after. I have in my possession several video proving Mrs. Ashford hostility towards Ms. Tavares and young Isaiah saw it as well.

But everyone is making it about his mother instead about a little boy who saw her be cruel and malicious he took action in defense of his mother J.T said as the court watched the video. Jordan closed her eyes and sighed but Michelle's were trained on the man she spent alot of time with in Miami.

After the video was over J.T stepped forward your honor this is case is about a little boy who wants people in power to be held accountable for there actions i have nothing further to say your honor. Andrea whispered something in Ms. Stanton ear before she spoke " I would like redirect and call my client Mrs. Jordan Ashford to the stand she finished trying to save her case.

Sam looked over to Andrea and smiled and winked at her before she turned and kissed Isaiah on the cheek. I will accept Ms. Stanton and we will take a quick recess and adjourned back at 2 pm the judge spoke as everyone filed out of the courtroom.

Michelle stormed after him " What the hell Joseph" she said glaring at him angrily

"What happen" he asked innocently

What the hell are you two doing with her she said as T.J tried to pull her back

" That's my sister and nephew inside there" Emy said with a devious grin

"WHAT YOUR WERE PLAYING ME THIS WHOLE TIME" Michelle said

Emelda smiled yes i most certainly was you should really do your job better right Jose she said looking to her left laughing. " Jose" that's when she looked at Joseph confused when he smiled that is me that is when she was thrown. That is me Melky Jose Tavares he answered when Michelle went to slap him " come on mamacita don't be that way" he said as he held her hands.

You like every moment of it she shoved him away " YOU SON OF A BITCH" Michelle spat angrily as T.J and Jordan pulled her back. " Come on Muneca" don't do that mami come back" he said as they lead her away Emy laughed.
