Touching The Heart Of Ace (SAMPLE)

Chapter 72

"The incident helps us with the case, that is a positive."

I pushed open the door to Robbie's home office and they froze.

"I do not fucking guard her life day and night for you to play her like a fiddle."

"Sir, we..."

"Not one word." I hissed. "Not one fucking word." The forefinger I was pointing, shook with anger.

"What were you thinking? That you could use her? That you could break her tiny heart? Pull one more stunt like that, you will cease to exist. You think, you can win this case and take shit load of money and be Kings? Ever wondered how your life would be if you do not have an identity anymore. Ever wondered the name you had all your life ceased to have a meaning. Ever wondered how to prove that you are not the person, your social security number claimed you to be? I can do that, you know. I can make you someone else overnight. How about a game? After all, you are the mighty attorneys. Let us see how you can beat your own system. I promise if you hurt my child again, you will never have a life to get back to."

I would fucking demolish them.

My baby girl! She stopped breathing and they had the audacity to say it helped the case. They made her cry.

I would rot my brain to crush their fucking pathetic sad excuses of human lives.

My baby's tiny eyes were squeezed shut and her whole body was frozen like a log.

My child!

Mine!

"Angel, it was..."

"Don't! Robert Brantley, you could fuck that bitch sideways for the rest your life, I would not bat an eye. If my Little Baby's breaths are the cost of getting you in my life, you are not worth it. Do you think I sacrificed everything in my life to be with you? You are wrong. It was for her. It 'is' for her. Do you understand?"

He nodded frantically. "Yes, Angel. I will never have it any other way. You are the only one for me but I will make sure our baby would not be dragged in the middle. I promise."

"You better stick to it Robert, because if there is one more time, you will never see me or her ever again. She will learn to live without you, might even forget about you. No father should let his child fight his own battles, that too as filthy and pathetic as this one." I wanted to wash away the after taste of my own words.

He gasped. "Baby, please do not talk like that. I have nothing to do with this." He was stuttering.

I laughed. "You believe that? You have nothing to do with this! You married that fucking bitch, you started this fuck fest and my kid is the one to pay the price? She is the only good thing that came out of your never ending stupidity."

He nodded, completely agreeing with me.

Good!

I had meant every word I had said.

I stared at every moron in the room. They had the audacity to hurt my baby. I was planning to dig up every fucking dirt they swept under the rugs of their 'names'. The hate I had for them was intensifying tremendously.

"It is my fault." The whiplash made my eyes sting. Simon was staring back at me. He could shove the guilt in his eyes, up his ass.

"They were going to bring up your relationship with Brantley. Our case is strong but if they were to prove the father was also having an affair behind the back of the mother... there could be an issue to have sole custody."

My heart dropped to my stomach. I could not imagine Lia in the hands of that monster.

"I noticed how detached your child was from the mother. I thought it would be better to throw the bone at that rabid dogs than waiting for them to bite us first. We could lose if they had very disturbing questions, so I was hoping on the detachment to show up under 'our' selected questions. I neither knew or considered that the kid would be absolutely terrified of her. If you are going to annihilate anyone for this incident, it should be me." He swallowed. "Your husband only knew... just like you, in the court."
