Chapter 165

Pop! The cork of a champagne bottle flies off and Amara claps excitedly.

"Yay!"

"Today was a good day," Kelvin says, holding up the wine bottle, "I know you probably think it's too early to celebrate but I've learnt to celebrate the small wins to better take the losses."

"Oh we are not going to lose," Leila adds with a smile, passing her mother a wine glass and holding up two to Kelvin.

After Kelvin's counter, the judge agreed for Trent to be put on the stand as a key witness to the case. Justin was going to counter it but the letter written by Alpha Darren, Tatum's father, granting Trent permission to join Leila's parents on the journey was presented by Kelvin and there was no way for Justin to rebut.

After making his decree, the judge adjourned the next hearing to four days' time, giving them enough time to prepare their witnesses and evidence.

Kelvin fills the two glasses in Leila's hands and when he's about to pour the glass in Liana's hands, he sees she is not as enthusiastic as the rest of them. He drops the bottle, takes the glass from her and drops it too before he drags her to her feet. "Hey Clint," he beckons to the Al home assistant, "play me some sweet dancing music," he smiles at Liana.

"No Kelvin don't," Liana counters and Leila sips on her drink, giving Kelvin a thumbs up simultaneously.
