Surprise Baby Girl-Ch 27
Derek looked right into the judges eyes as he told everything that had happened from the time he married Savannah up until they had walked into the courtroom earlier that morning. The judge said, "Mr. Morgan have you been unfaithful to your wife", he shook his head and said, "no mam, I've never cheated on her while she on the other hand has cheated on me with several men including Chad who is here in the courtroom today".
The judge said, "Savannah kept mentioning a Penelope Garcia, how do you feel about her"?, he smiled and said, "I love Penelope, she's been my best friend for almost 12 years". Derek sighed and said, "I've been in love with Penelope for years and it was her that I should have been with all the time but I let my sense of duty win over my heart".
He nodded his head and said, "and what about your son", Derek said, "he's my heart, I don't know what I'd do without him, Savannah and I did one thing right and it was that little boy right there". The judge said, "so you're telling this court that you've never slept with Ms. Garcia is that correct", he said, "yes sir that's what I'm saying".
He looked down for a second and then looked up and said, "Penelope isn't that girl, she isn't the woman that would ever be part of cheating, she's an amazing woman,
she's kind, loving and has one of the biggest hearts I've ever seen". Derek took a deep breath and said, "when my divorce is final Penelope and I are going to move forward with our relationship, as of right now we've had a few meals together and we spend a lot of time with Hank but that's as far as it's gone".
Savannah crossed her arms and said, "yeah right", the judge looked at her and said, "you've had your chance to talk Savannah now it's Dereks", she nodded her head and said, "sorry sir". The judge sat back in his chair and said, "what is this about you attacking Chad"?, he said, "my team and I along with Penelope went to a bar for a few drinks and while we were there dancing Chad came forward and started running his mouth on us and insulting Penelope".
Heather said, "your honor we have a copy of the video from the bars survelience cameras", Savannahs lawyer stood up and said, "my client filmed the same event sir and it is in our evidence". The judge said, "alright, Brad put in Mrs. Morgans version for us please", Brad pulled the tv around and put the copy into the slot and pushed play and they watched as Savannah's version played.
After it was finished the judge said, "now let's watch Mr. Morgans version", Brad removed Savannahs tape and put Dereks version in and after pushing play everybody in the room watched as it played second by second. When it was over the judge looked at Savannah and said, "why did your's cut off before it was over"?, she swallowed hard and said, "that's all I saw sir, I left".
Heather said, "sir it's at this time that we would like to talk to Chad please", he looked up and said, "Chad please stand and approach the microphone please", he stood up and made his way up and stood in front of the mic. The judge said, "how long have you known Mrs. Morgan", he smiled and said, "I've known her for a little over a year sir".
He looked at Heather and said, "do you have any questions for him", she said, "I do", she looked at Chad and said, "when was the first time that you slept with Mrs.
Morgan", he said, "I I I". She looked at the judge and said, "please instruct him to answer the question", the judge said, "answer the question", Chad said, "the first time we slept together was the night we met".
Dereks mouth flew open as Chad said, "we actually met here in Virginia and when she moved I moved but traveled here for business and that's when I accidently on purpose ran into Penelope". Heather said, "so was it Savananhs plan all along to use you to get to Penelope"?, he took a deep breath and said, "yes sir", Heather took a deep breath and said, "how long after you met Penelope did you seduce her into bed", he grinned and said, "getting her in the bed was easy because she was so broken after Derek left that she was like putty in my hand".
He looked over his shoulder at Penelope and said, "I made Penelope think that I cared about her when I truth I'm in love with Savannah", the judge said, "alright I've heard enough". He opened the file and looked around the room as he said, "I'm ready to render my decisions"?, everybody sat there listening and waiting for the judge to give his decision.
