The words hung in the air, a moment frozen in time. I felt a rush of emotions as I slowly settled in my seat, taking in the brief silence that occurred. Then suddenly it happened.
The courtroom erupted in applause, I sat motionless, absorbing the magnitude of the moment. Cameras flashed and people were out of their seats, their reactions ranging from embracing eachother to shouting congratulations.
Aria and Lucas leaped from their seats, their cheers filling the room as they barreled toward me. They circled me in jubilant celebration, their joy contagious. Amid the excitement, Timothy approached, a smile playing on his lips.
“You made it,” he said gently.
I found myself enveloped in a hug with Timothy. His presence was almost grounding, shielding me from the chaos ensuing around us. As we held each other, he twirled me around and laughter spilled from my lips.
“You certainly did, Ms. Sinclair,” said a gravelly voice behind me.
Timothy paused mid–twirl, forcing me to face the imposing figure headed in my direction. Mr. Erickson forced his way through the crowd, his voice rising above the applause.
“Because this is a farce! Prepare for an appeal. You will regret this,” he said through
itted teeth.
Security, quick to respond, intervened, escorting him away from the celebration. His threats continued, even as they forced him out the door. I met his gaze with a steely resolve, refusing to let his bitterness dampen the victory we had fought so hard to achieve.
“Evie Sinclair!” he bellowed, his voice seething with anger. “This isn’t over! You won’t get away with this!”
I turned away, trying to dismiss his words. The excitement in the courtroom only seemed to ramp up as reporters sought to catch every bit of his reaction.
“What an ass,” said Aria, slinging an arm around my shoulder. “I’m so glad you don’t have to work for that pervert ever again.”
“Yeah,” I said absently. Maybe it’s good things worked out this way?
