Divorce to Destiny: Reclaiming My CEO Husband by Anney GW

My CEO 91

91 Home Alone, Almost (Winona)

I sit in the living room of my townhouse, my ankle bracelet itching against my skin. The quiet space echoes everything I do, adding to the horrible feeling of Abby not being here with me. But I'm home. That's a start.

Gordon Brown, my lawyer, sits across from me, a stack of papers in front of him. His legal team is scattered around the room, their faces serious and focused. My parole officer is also present. Sheila Hobbs. I feel scared just looking at her chunky build and she must be at least six foot tall. Short hair and an expressionless face.

I glance at the clock, wondering how much longer this ordeal will last.

Gordon clears his throat, drawing my attention back to him. "Winona, we need to go over the conditions of your house arrest. These are non-negotiable, and you must adhere to them strictly. Do you understand?" I nod, my stomach twisting with anxiety. "Yes, I understand."

He shuffles through the papers, pulling out a sheet, he hands it to Shella.

She reads it through and then begins to relay it to me. "First, you are not to interact with the alleged victim, Ashlyn Brennan, or her immediate family. This includes Jayden Brennan and his immediate family.

I feel a pang in my chest at the mention of Jayden's name. The memory of our last encounter still stings. I get it," I mutter, trying to keep my voice steady. Like I'd want to interact with Judy anyway.

"Second," she continues, "you cannot interact with any named witnesses. This is crucial. Any violation of this could severely damage your case."

I nod again. "Okay. How will I know who they are."

"We'll get a list in due course, and we'll develop a list of our own." Gordon says with a small smile. "Who we call in order is important, and we can present new witnesses as needed. So, it's best to not speak with anyone who might impact the case in any way." "I see. So I can't have anyone then."

"You are allowed to interact with Lisa Goodson for emotional support, but only here, in your townhouse where everything is monitored, and limited visiting hours to daytime,"

"But Lisa could become a witness, what happens there?"
