Chapter 20 - Stop Right There !
" Please...get me ...out of here !" said Aria who was about to faint .
Ace arrived as fast as could and rushed to the toilets . He saw the ladies's door and tried to open it but it was closed. He understood that Aria was inside and was ready to throw the door down but then he noticed the key that was in the trash bin . He took it and opened the door .
When he entered he saw Aria who was barely keeping her eyes open .
"Please..get me out !"
"Don't worry Aria ! Your brother's here , everything is fine now ." said Ace worryingly.
He took Aria outside and bought a bottle of water for her . After Aria had calmest down she started to walk towards the court seance.
"Aria , you're face is pale ! Take your time and calm a bit ! " said Ace still worried.
"Don't worry ! I'm fine for now . I have to finish this today , not only for me but for Aden too . " said Aria .
" Aden ?! " asked Ace confused .
"I will explain everything to you once I finish the business here . " said Aria and then accompanied by Ace went ahead to the court seance hall .

On the other hand in the court seance hall a tense atmosphere had invaded the place . Bekora and Ramolo were in a mess . The prosecutor was being impatient and mr Ben was really satisfied about this .
"Should we surrender ? " asked Ramolo in a sad yet angry tone .
"Maybe we should ! The time the prosecutor gave us is about to end and it would be useless to ask for more time . " said Bekora .
"Mr Bekora ! Since your lawyer isn't coming and didn't have the chance to show the evidences then I shall see them if they are worth waiting for ao much ! Bring them here to me ! " said the prosecutor in an angry tone .
Bekora ordered Ramolo to bring the files to the prosecutor and so he did . It was a really quiet atmosphere for five to seven minutes . No one talked with their mouths but their challenging gazes were crossing each others like the swords in a fight .
"These are good evidences indeed but they don't completely justify all the actions that mr Ben presented . I am afraid that without your lawyer and enough evidences , I need to declare my verdict now .
I , declare ms Karen innocent and CEO Helios guilty . " said the prosecutor and then received the verdict from the person behind him who wrote it .
"Now it's all over !" thought Bekora .
Helios kept watching ever that was happening through his computer. He became really angry .
"Where is that girl ? I swear I won't let you off if you don't appear right now ."said Helios then continued to watch .
The prosecutor was about to put the law emblem on the verdict but then the door opened and someone spoke .
"Stop right there ! " said Aria in a serious tone .
Everyone was surprised when they turned their face and saw Aria who was accompanied by Ace . Even though she rested a little her face was still pale .
' Why is her face so pale and why is Ace here ? ' thought Bekora .
Bekora looked at Ramolo and saw that he was thinking the same thing as him .
On the other hand Helios thought that it was strange that her brother was there with her . He noticed that the moment Aria entered she was leaning on Ace so he decided to zoom the picture and see Aria's face . Her face was pale and her eyes were hardly trying to remain open .
' What happened to her ? ' thought Helios then wrote a message to Ramolo , ordering him to investigate what had happened once the court seance was over .
Mr Ben began to worry . He couldn't allow her to speak about what he had done to her . His sight crossed Aria's . Her look was neither annoyed neither angry. He himself couldn't comprehend what that look which started to give him the chills meant .
"Who are you to ask the prosecutor to stop ?! " said the lawyer of ms Karen , Helios's aunt . Mrs Karen and the R&B's ceo were sitting as if nothing mattered . Karen was scheming and used someone else as a scapegoat so she had made a plot ready for the ceo of R&B company to take her place in court . She convinced him by helping out with some financial issues.
"I, lawyer of mr Helios , demand a review of the evidences that slander my client . Your honor please give me the chance to proceed."
"The evidences have been proved and approved by the judge himself . Are you trying to say that our judge can't differ the real from fake ?!" said mr Ben with an evil smile on his face .
"With all the respect your honor , I admit that my client isn't here and I also apologize in name of my client but he really couldn't make it due to work reasons. I also arrived late but that is due to a reason which I would prefer to talk about once this is over . As for the review of the evidences , I would never look down on the decision made by your honor but sometimes even the sharpest eyes can mis the evil's intention when trying to lead a peaceful path . "
Everyone in the hall looked at Aria and the other lawyer , mr Ben . Helios's assistant , Ramolo started to register the whole process to send it to Mana who had gone overseas again for work related matters . Aria looked straight at the eyes of the prosecutor . Her determined attitude changed his decision , making him agree to her request despite the strong disagreement of mr Ben .
"Now the review of the evidences shall begin. " said the prosecutor.
"Your honor this is just a loss of time !" said mr Ben hopping that the decision may change . The prosecutor looked at him a bit angry and wanted to speak but before he could open his mouth Aria stepped forward while looking at him with a murderous gaze .
"Mr Ben seems rather tense about the review of the evidences. If you insist that your client is innocent then why are you so worked over such a small matter or is there something hidden that you don't want us to discover ?! "
Aria's eyes were fierce like that of a tiger . She usually was nice and naive but once she wore the layer's fabric she became fierce and merciless , like a general ready to fight without holding sympathy for its enemies. Ramolo was a bit surprised by this side of her and so was Bekora . She looked really cool .
"Miss Aria has a point mr Ben . Why would you be so nervous or are you objecting my order ?!" said the prosecutor looking at mr Ben with suspicion .
Me Ben remained silent and lowered his head in sign of apology . Then he looked angrily at Aria but she didn't give a damn about that .
Aria went and sat next to Bekora .
" Now it's time to end this annoying situation ! " said Aria and opened the file .
