" Hey, I said wake up." cried Halbert but got no response. Rough breathing was clear, Halbert crouched down to align herself with the man.
Pulling the man's hair in front of him, Halbert made the man's face visible. And how surprised he was because the face in front of him became pale and blue lips. Checking the man's pulse, Halbert was immediately down when no blood flow was felt.
" Fuck, he drank poison." said Halbert after observing the man's face.
Halbert violently knocked the man's head off and moved with a cell phone in his pants pocket. He then contacted his father with regret.
" Hello, Pa."
" Hum, what's wrong? You've arrived in court."
" No"
Halbert hesitated to convey the bad news to her Papa until she chose to be quiet for a moment while rubbing the rough face of her face.
" Hello, Halbert?" Papa Harvey across the street spoke when he felt no voice.
" Fresya's lover, he's dead." exclaimed Halbert looking desperate.
" What. "the surprise of Papa Harvey was clearly heard behind the phone. Halbert, who did not want to feel the despair of the Papa, immediately closed the phone call without speaking a word.
He turned his head and looked at the stranger who was lying stiff on the floor. It was like he was hitting the man to spill his anger, but it was all impossible to do to a lifeless person anymore.

Somewhere, in Haven's room, the young man was preparing to leave the courtroom. He put on his robe while staring out the window.
His eyes were blank, as if something was on his mind.
Chequek.
Haven's daydream came to a halt when suddenly the door of his room was opened by the apprentice youth who had always accompanied him.
" Sir, there's a letter from Fresya's family. But the Chief Executive who gave me and told me to read the letter when the trial began." said the young intern— put the envelope on his superior's desk.
" You really challenge me." said Haven.
" What's up, sir?" the apprentice youth made a sound as he watched the man in front of him speak with a shrunken volume of voice.
" It's nothing." said Haven immediately grabbed the white envelope.
" Alright, Sir. I'm out first." exclaimed the apprentice youth and soon passed.

Conference Room.
Time turned very fast, and now came the moment where the trial would be opened again. It looks like the room is now inhabited by many people—, especially reporters and journalists who are ready with laptops in their respective laps.
The atmosphere seemed tense, especially when Mr. Judge had entered the courtroom and sat on his throne seat.
While Mama Allen who sat in the chair of the suspect is now unceasingly staring at Haven. It was seen that his son did not glance at him in the slightest. There was a resentment in the heart, because the son worked very professionally.
There was no sound of the hammer knocking three times. When the trial officially opened, there was a clear sound of a laptop keyboard. All the reporters seemed busy typing what he heard.
" I will announce one regulation during the trial process" said Mr. Judge.
All those in the courtroom are now listening quietly. Dasyah who was also present certainly now grinned with his thin smile.
" I don't accept evidence obtained illegally. Evidence obtained by the influence of power."
The judge's statement shocked Papa Harvey and Halbert. The two handsome men were unable to speak when the Judge lightly uttered that sentence.
" Brazed, this is clearly a conspiracy." Papa Harvey was furious, but his son Halbert tried to calm down.
" Sister, how is this? Is Mama going to lose? Then how's the baby?"
Alexa made a sound, looking at Ainsley with a face full of anxiety. But Ainsley did not show any expression.
