His Secret Wife

Excuse me Sir

Alexander POV

I look at the time. It's been an hour since Jacob's hearing has started. Allison remain quiet; she seems to be deep in thought or she's either taking mental notes.

All I can think about is when all this is done I need to speak with her, I want to find out where she has been all this time.  I still can't believe she's within arms reach.  How I long to run my hands in her hair, caress those checks, embrace her warmth, smell her scent and be buried deep within her.  'Just a matter of time till I get to hold her in my arms and this time I won't let her go.  I will have everything I want.

Breaking out of my thoughts, I could sense Allison eyebrows crease together, which only happens when she's deep in thought.

One witness sits in the witness box while the prosecutor questions him.

Ever so often I could practically hear a chuckle from her but not a single word she has spoken.

Jacob fidgets in his chair. The witnesses looks terrified, some nervous, some anxious to get out of here.

"Council?" The judge calls out.

Allison stands up and begins to question the witness. So far it doesn't look good for Jacob for the prosecutor keeps shutting down every questions she throws at.

I can see her annoyed expression. The same expression she had used many times on me when I mostly likely annoy her.

My smile crept on my face. I must look like a fool smiling to myself.

"Can we have a 10 min break your honor?"

The judge pounds his gavel, "We'll resume in 10 minutes."

You can hear the commotion.

"Attorney..." Jacob starts. "This doesn't look good..." Allison remains silent not once looking up but rather reading a piece of paper she holds in her hands.

"Look Attorney, I heard you were the best, now do your job and get my brother out of this mess."

Allison looked at Serena and glared at her.

"Attorney do we...." Allison held up her hands as if to shut them both up.

"Look I don't think you know who you're talking to, but if you'd like me to walk...you do have a choice. I do not have to be here."

"No no no, my sister was only kidding."

"Good now please both of you shut up, while I think in the mean while why don't you get yourself a glass of water."

Serena mumbled, "Bitch."

It was suppose to be a whisper but it was loud enough for us to hear, usually Allison would have made a comment but either she didn't hear or she simple ignored her.  Wow this is a new development on her side, what else has change about her, I can't wait to find out.

Allison texted someone, after seconds later a young looking man entered where Allison got up and took something from him and whispered into his ears.

'Who the hell was he?'

The prosecutor then walks up to Jacob and Allison, "If I were you I wouldv'e taken the plea bargain."  He smirk, "It doesn't look good for either of you especially You Miss. Campbell."

'Miss Campbell.  No it's Mrs. Reid.  We are not yet divorce.'

"Attorney maybe we should consider..." Jacob whimpers.

 "Shut up Mr. Burt. "  She whips her head towards the prosecutor, " You listen here, I'd rather die then admit defeat so if I were you I'd sit your ass back down like a good dog and beg...." She smirked while the prosecutor went back to his seat, "You're funeral." He laughs.
