Lucky Me

Chapter 14 Part 1

I'm at home now but today was amazing. Jacob and I were together like all day at school and a few hours after school. I'm so happy that he's mine and that I'm his. We are meant for each other!

Right now I am on my way to speak to the judge that was there when my mom lost her case. He should tell me what happened and how it was decided that she lost. I am wearing this nice dress that makes me look formal and professional.

I reach the front desk and a lady asks

"How may I help you?"

"May I have a word with the judge that handled Mrs. Browns recent case?"

"Do you have an appointment?"

"No but this is very important." I try to say as formal as i can without making it look like I am lying.

"Okay. His office is Room 33, on the third floor."

"Thank you ma'am" I say rushing to the judge office.

I get to his office and I see him sitting in a chair doing paperwork.

"Hello sir." I decide to say.

"How may I help you?" He asks just like the lady at the front desk.

"I need information on Mrs. Browns most recent case." I say as smooth as I can.

"Oh the one that she lost?" He asks like it is nothing.

"Yes. Her case she ONLY lost." I made sure to say 'only' the important word.

"I do remember that case. What do you need to know?"

"I need to know what she did to lose that case."

"I can't help you with that ma'am." He said.

"And why is that?" I say a little annoyed.

"Because I just can't."

"What happened?" I say very curiously.

"I am unable to tell you." He said shaking like he's scared to say something.

"Okay then I will just look at the tape before the trial." I say with a straight face. As I slowly walk out.

"Please don't do that ma'am..." He says but just stares at me then he continues "...If i tell you I could lose my job."

"I demand you to tell me what happened! I don't care if you lose your job! Mrs. Brown isn't working because she doesn't want to lose a case again but if it is your fault she lost she must know! I recomend that you tell me now before it gets worse." I tell him. I got mad because he might be the reason my mom lost her case.

"Okay. I will tell you what happened...The other lawyer paid me a million dollars to make sure Mrs. Brown lost. I took the deal. I thought that she would still have trials because she is the best, I thought she would be okay. But now that she isn't working I know it was my fault and I feel very bad for doing that to her. I kept quiet because I can't lose my job. There that is it." He said. I am shocked, anger, and relieved.

"I can't believe you did that. You little selfish dick. She is depressed and she doesn't want to work because she is ashamed that she lost the case! She thinks she messed it up!!! But it was you. You are a piece of shit, you know that. You just fucking ruined her career!" I tell him.

"I'm so sorry. Please don't report me!" He says.

"Oh. You don't want to get in trouble?!? Well to bad. I am going to ruin your career just like to did to Mrs. Brown! You will see how it feels and you will go to prison with a life sentence! And I will Make sure of it!" I tell him.

"I don't think you will." and with that he punched me in the face then the stomach then i was on the ground. He stated to kick me. "You won't be able to talk and tell the police."

"You don't know me then. I DO NOT GIVE UP. You are stupid. You should've asked for my name in the first place! My name is Layla BROWN." I yelled my last name so he knows who I am. "That's right. I am the mayor's daughter and Mrs. Browns daughter!" Once I said that he ran.

I managed to get myself up and I called Brett. He would help me, my mom and dad are to busy for us. I dialed bretts number

"Hey sis!" He says.

"I need help. Come get me at the offices of the judges and quick." I tell him.

"Are you okay? and I will be there as soon as I can. Hang on Layla. I promise I will be there in 5 minutes." He tells me worried.

"I'm okay kind of. I will be here waiting for you." Once I said that I hung up. I know Jacob should know but I don't want him to get worried. I will call him later.

While I was waiting for Brett I wiped all the blood off my face. I got some blood on my dress. I will have my dad have some one make me an exact replica of it. I looked in the mirror and I had a big bruise on my cheek and a cut on my lip and cuts on my sides which is were its my bare skin. I'm used to the pain because of soccer but this wasn't from soccer.

Brett comes in and run towards me....
