"Jeremy you need to see this"Yomi announced as he walked inside Jeremy's office.
"What's going on?"Jeremy asked.
"It about that's judge that died at land roads" Yomi dropped some files on the table. "I found something about her family"
"Yes, go on."
"There is no record of her family, the only thing I saw was news about how her family died in a car accident"Yomi explained and Jeremy listened with rapt attention.
"A car accident?"Jeremy questioned and Yomi nod.
"I dig deeper and then I learned that there was another person involved with what happened years ago. A police officer. I couldn't get his identity. "
"Really? A police officer? "Jeremy read through the files that yomi had dropped.
"Get Lisa to get the detective. We need to find out who that police officer was and only Lara could help with that."
"Yeah but Jeremy don't you think telling her right now is a bad idea. She just lost her family."
"Do it Yomi" Jeremy ordered and went back to reading the files.
Yomi went out and instructed Lisa as ordered.

In the feathers meeting room, the feathers celebrated the success of their project approval.
"You know this is the best thing that has ever happened to the feathers in years. "Park commented.
"Yes, the plan had finally being approved"Simone exclaimed.
"Let's make a toast to joy, happiness, and more money" Alissa raised her glass of red wine and the others did the same.
"Cheers" they all chorused.
"So guys, when is the big project plan starting?" an anxious Simone asked.
"Patience, patience Simone, "Daniel replied. He stood up from the chair he was seating on and walked to the back of the chair. He smiled and dropped his glass of wine on the table. "Finally, feathers our project is approved. After so long. Let's make another toast. "He took his glass of wine from the table and raised it. "This is to the project. Let's the work began."
"Cheers" they all chorused.
"What's are we?"Daniel questioned.
"Feathers cause we aim to soar higher"they all chorused and cheered.
"That's the spirit feathers" Daniel smiled as he drank his wine.
Munachi drop his glass of wine and made an announcement. "Listen up we have another problem again. "
"Again? What problem is it this time" park questioned?
"A detective is trying to investigate Felicia Watson's case"munachi informed.
"Watson? I thought you closed that case a long time ago" Alissa stated.
"Who is he? "Daniel asked to know who he was about to face.
"Unfortunately it's a she"munachi replied.
Simone laughed and crossed her legs. "That's shouldn't be a problem munachi, eliminate her"
"That is what I planned to do and then I found something shocking. "I found out that, she is Johnson's daughter,"munachi explained in detail how Lara was the former chief of police daughter.
"His daughter became a detective like the father well, that's interesting. Just kill her off."Leonard suggested.
"That's what I planned, the other thing is her family was on the plane that's crashed"munachi announced.
"What? The girl is a big threat and she needs to die."Leonard suggested.
"Yes I agree with Leonard" Alissa added.
"No. No. Leave the girl for now but watch her closely. Eliminating a detective at a funeral ceremony would cause a lot of attention" Daniel told them.
"You are making a mistake Daniel"Alissa argued.
"I know what's I'm doing and I now have my eyes on her. Any wrong move and she is dead."Daniel promised.

"Thank you for coming over detective."
"Anytime attorney"Lara smiled.
Jeremy beckoned to yomi to bring the file case of Watson. He showed Lara the files and she went through them.
"Felicia Watson was once a judge? "She asked and Jeremy nodded. "Shocking cause I never heard of her."Lara continued to read through the file and she dropped it on the table when she was done.
"So? "Jeremy raised a brow at her.
"Well I wished I could help find who the policeman was but I'll be going to Carbuja for three days to supervise the funeral service alongside some other detectives."
"Supervise? "This time it was yomi who questioned her.
"Yeah, my boss ordered me to"Lara replied.
"You mean your boss sent you to carbuja to supervise a funeral you should be attending? "Jeremy asked and folded his arm.
"He is not just my boss, he is the chief of police of all police departments in mecianda. One mistake and my career is gone forever."
"Well it your decision Lara, but I'll like to go to Carbuja with you, "Jeremy told her.
"What! "Yomi and Lara said at the same time.
"You have no one to support and I'm coming with you to do just that"Jeremy replied.
"Are you insane Jeremy? Going to carbuja. I'm not allowing that"Yomi refused his decision to go to carbuja.
"Yomi we'll talk about that when we get home. Right now my mind is made up I'm going to carbuja to support Lara" Jeremy decided.
Lara wiped the tears that were already forming off her face. Someone was supporting her and it was not someone she expected it from. "You know attorney when we first met I? thought you were a bastard.", Jeremy raised his brow as she said the word bastard.
"Sorry about but that's was how I pictured you, Attorney. but now, I can see that's deep down you have a soft and kind heart" Lara confessed.
Jeremy smiled at her and she returned the smile. Yomi watched the exchange between the two of them, he knew something was going up in both their heads. Something that was none of his business.
Lisa barged into the office and quickly apologize after earning a glare from Jeremy. "I'm sorry to disturb your meeting but Mary and James are here to see you" she informed.
"Let's them in"Jeremy commanded.
Mary and James both walked into Jeremy's office as Lisa lead them in. "Hello, there Mr attorney"Mary greeted.
"Miss Mary, nice to see you and.."Jeremy turned to face James. He had forgotten his name.
James stare at Jeremy with a hard expression and then introduced himself. "I'm James I can see you've forgotten"
"Thanks for coming"Jeremy replied.
"Well, I could see you were discussing with the detective before we arrive. Should we leave or what? "Mary started the conversation to break the silence in the room.
"I should go attorney"Lara stand up to leave but Jeremy held her hand to stop her from leaving.
"Stay Lara. This could concern you "Jeremy said to her.
"I don't think a detective is needed for this conversation", Mary disagreed with the idea of Lara staying in the office.
"What do you have against me? "Lara walked to her and asked her.
"Because you people are the reason why everything is going wrong in this country"Mary retorted.
"How do you mean? Like I told you earlier I'm not my freaking department. Do you think I want my niece and sister gone! you think I wouldn't do anything to save them if I was given the chance"Lara shouted and Mary stared at her with confusion. Mary had no idea of what Lara was saying.
Lara broke down into tears and Jeremy offered her a handkerchief.
"What's going on? "Mary asked.
Lisa explained everything to her and for once in Mary's life, she felt guilty for insulting someone.
"I'm sorry I had no idea. I was just angry. "Mary begged.
Lara walked to her and pat her shoulder. "It's okay, stop being judgmental about someone when you first met them. I'm not my department. "She stated.
James cleared his throat to gain their attention cause he had something to tell them. "We found something about Linda."
That's seems to get their attention as they all waited for his explanation.
"Linda was poisoned," James revealed. Yomi punch the wall beside him while Jeremy just cursed and waited for what James had to say next.
"The poisoned used does not exist yet in the country, whosoever killed Linda are top people" James laid out, he had to let them know who they were up against.
"That's is so shocking, why would they just killed her like that"Lara lamented.
"James and I have decided to join hands with you. What you said that's day about getting justice for those who had being wrong. We are here to join hands with you and find justice. "Mary announced.
"You think you can change the world?" James throws the question at Jeremy to test his ability.
"I'm not trying to change the world, I wanna make it better. "Jeremy replied.
James nodded at his response, he was satisfied with the answer to his question.
"So what next? "Lara asked.
"We join hands together and make it work out.."Mary suggested
"Then let start by all going to carbuja to support Lara." Jeremy announced.
"Carbuja! "They all exclaimed at once.
"Yes carbuja, we are going to support Lara"Jeremy repeated.
Lara shook her head at Jeremy's suggestion, she doesn't need any pity from anyone. "I'll go alone you don't have to come"
"Support you. That's what we will do cause families support one another. "Mary declared and placed a hand on her shoulder.
"Since we all have agreed we'll be going in my jet"
"You have a jet attorney!! That's is amazing" Mary gave Jeremy a thumb up and he returned a smile.
"So guys, Carbuja here we come.."Jeremy announced.

Kemisola rolled her eyes and scoffed. "James you've been saying this for years now yet, nobody is willing to help".

He could have done something but he didn't and he let his sister rot In jail for five years for a crime she didn't commit. Now he is going to do anything to get her out. "I promise. I just got a lawyer, a really good one who is ready to help you get justice".

James sensed this and break the news he had come for. "I'm going to carbuja so you won't see me for some days"
"Carbuja? For what? "Kemi inquired.
"I'm going there to support someone. I promise you Kemi I'll get you out of this hell hole."
"Thank you, brother. I just want to leave this shit hole. "Kemi burst into tears.
"Stop crying Kemi, I promise to get you out. Soon Kemi, soon."
