Twisted Love's

Episode 27's

A few months later .. and the beginning of summer has arrived.

"How's it going?" Ask Timo.

"I think he's really hungry! His weight is soaring higher! Do you think she's pregnant?"

"I hope so."

"Hopefully he'll soon look a little bulge so we know for sure." I said agitatedly as I stared at the glass covering the breeding area of the Kaleido Leopard.

"Yes. It would be nice to check it out, but we don't want to stress him out." Timo also hopes to be restless.

"Not at all. This could be the first pregnancy, so it's very important."

It has certainly entered an alarming period and we have to be ready to anticipate everything. We can only wait.

Maybe I should revisit it to find out more, if there's any information about the leopard's pregnancy...

This time, I picked up my tablet instead of the book I used to carry and immediately opened the browser to search for its data online.

The default page of the browser appears open, displaying all the latest headlines.

'Nolan Zarek Junior won his 100th magical victory!'

Thus the word headline in large and bold letters.

So after all that happened, finally the pharmaceutical company won its lawsuit huh...

I continued reading the article, albeit with mixed feelings about it.

Let's see what's written...

'Animal shelter sues pharmaceutical companies claiming animal cruelty and abuse ...'

'The indictment rejected the claims made because the prosecutor did not have enough evidence to prove the claims ...'

In the end, the article did not mention the information I gave Nolan about the animal shelter.

Although pharmaceutical companies win, as long as they do not really harm animals, I agree with that ...

"It looks like there's another miracle, hmm?" I turned my head and found Timo reading the tablet on my shoulder.

Geez! He moves like a ninja! I hope he will say something first before doing that kind of thing again in the future...

"Everything worked, didn't it?" Timo seemed to be understanding the content of the article I was reading.

"What do you mean?" My toot.

"Well, first of all, the pharmaceutical companies managed to save their reputation."

"Secondly, animal shelters have managed to make tons of news and raise awareness of animal abuse."

"And lastly, Nolan Junior has surpassed his father." Said Timo holding his chin nodding in agreement with what the article was saying.

Oh yea... With this, the public will remember Nolan before his father.

"All considering all things, the fact that this case turned out to be very good for everyone is a real miracle. I said I agree with Timo.

"No, wait. I forgot about how much the two sides had already spent on the trial... In that case, Nolan is the real winner, I salute." Timo.

Huh huh? Did timo just mention 'Nolan' instead of 'Nolan Junior'?

I turned to face him, but Timo was already swinging to his chair. I was so pleased with Nolan's success that I read the article over and over again.

Noland... You really did it! You have proven yourself!

It was late afternoon when I returned to Lilac Court. When I entered the lounge, Miguel and Joy were chatting together while watching television.

"Maybe what they mean is his father." Miguel commented on the news he and Joy were watching.

"Mr Nolan just came out! Lord Nolan! Did you really take a bribe?" Ask a reporter when he's just getting out of his office.

"No Comment!" As the crowd of reporters instantly surrounded him, Nolan's father looked extremely angry.

"I haven't seen his dad on TV in a long time. Does he always look that creepy?" Miguel shuddered in horror at the attitude of Nolan's father who was on television.

"We just got the previous recording with Mr. Nolan Junior after a very big courtroom decision. Let's look together." Said one of the Program Hosts.

Is this the news that Miguel and Joy are waiting for?

"Mr Nolan! What do you think of this victory?! Did you expect it to be a difficult case to deal with?! They may not be guilty of animal abuse, but what about the bribery case? What do you think?" a line of reporters blew up many questions to Nolan on the coverage.

"No Comment." Nolan replied with a sly smile as he got into the car.

"The company is facing bribery charges with their former lawyer, but their current lawyer is his son! This will be an interesting series of events! However, Mr. Nolan actually faced it with a smile. Which master Nolan is that?" The Host commented after the coverage of Nolan was aired.

“Of course what they mean is their current lawyer! Depending on how this happened, his father may have lost his entire career!" A source exclaimed, also commenting.

"Very right. After all, who would trust a lawyer who had been convicted of taking bribes?"

"His son deserves that name. I'm sure we'll all call him as soon as possible." With that, the program changes to a different subject.

Nolan finally managed to free his junior's name!

Even though it was Nolan's dream, I felt very happy as if it was my own dream.

"But wouldn't he be suspected because his father was involved?" Ask Joy.

"I just want to know who leaked that information, which has caused all this. Time's too perfect." When I said it, something surprised me.

I remembered the sneaky smile Nolan had shown the camera earlier.

Nolan never made a face like that to the camera! Maybe he did it!

My heart is pounding, right now I want to be with Nolan and be in his arms.

*Where is Nolan? Where is Nolan now?

**Well, I had a hunch about where Nolan was going when he entered the car...

Really am! I know exactly where he is***!

I called a taxi and asked to take me to my destination.

He must be there! I know it!

When I arrived, I ran towards the place I was thinking about. A man standing looking at the night confirmed my prediction.

"Kraj...!" He turned around, blinking in surprise as I shouted his name and ran towards him. His eyes softened and he smiled when he realized that it was me who called him.

My heart was pounding, knowing that before, he would never show me such a smile.

And now, it's time to tell her my true feelings ...

*I know in advance I have a greeting towards Nolan...

From now on I will try to always trust his words and actions*.
