Twist Of Fate: Three Little Miracles

Then Clancy began….

All the while, Jake was watching the whole case from head to toe using his laptop. One of his men had a sound video recorder with high audio signal pick-up on. It was small and couldn’t be easily seen. He attached it to his T-shirt pocket and one would think it was a button.

Jason, The mega Island god of War too was watching and listening. He was with Jake in his hideout orchestrating his plans to strike at Sterling city defense again.

He was bowled over when the camera caught Otani.

“Wait wait wait…. Backward the video a bit!” He hastily said with a shocking surprised voice.

“He was like, isn’t that my son? Otani? What’s he doing here in sterling city?”

He watched the particular clip the camera caught Otani over and over again and alas, it was really his son. But what is he doing in sterling city? To even the score, what is he doing in the supreme court?

As Jake continued watching the live session happening at the court, Jason instructed one of his men to make research about Otani’s whereabouts right the minute.

Few minutes later, his man came back and reported to him privately.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“He resides in sterling city military base currently!”

“What?” He was extremely surprised and stricken with some emotions he couldn’t decipher. He however was able to hide his shock from Jake. He had initially stalled the conversation when Jake asked him why he asked him to see the clip that caught Otani over and over again. Besides, there were other people caught on the screen and Jake can’t possibly deduced who in particular so he also asked one of his men to see what he can find or deduce in the clip.

Jason quickly excused himself and placed a call over to Otani but his phone was however unreachable. Of course! It’d be unreachable since there is one rule when inside the court. “Switch of your phone or put it on flight or airplane mode”

Meanwhile at the court, Clancy was stylishly giving the judge reasons to give the custody of the kids to Jake and more reasons insinuating and buttressing that Jake is their real father.

“What’s she doing?” Diana thought, but before she could act. Clancy was already done…..

Even Mark and Otani didn’t understand what had just happened.

“Clancy was supposed to be defending her and not—- oh no…” It was at this point in time it struck Mark.

“Jake is definitely behind this…..”

Otani found himself erupting with some anger. He was not a dullard to not know that Clancy was doing all that purposely and in the favour of her rival. He knew there was more behind the clouds.

Then the sound of gavel roared through the court room indicating everyone should get silent and everyone stopped murmuring, then the noise died down. …

“Sentence to be carried out immediately.” The banging of the gavel roared in Diana’s ear as she let out a long breathe.

“Is this the end?” She thought.

Before the judge could continue, a voice rang out loudly.

“My Lord!”

Then the tall youn man walked forward. He saw Otani’s lawyer.

“Yes?” The judge demanded.

Otani heaved a sigh of relief , maybe his lawyer can get the judge to adjourn the case.

The lawyer immediately Introduced himself known and presented his claim.

Otani being the father of the triplets and not Mark…

Otani is Mark’s step brother…..

And Diana confirmed it….

And he requested that a paternity DNA test be redone on the kids, and that the ones already presented are most likely fake.

Mark furrowed his brows, confusedly – he was being beaten in his own game.

The doctors did their test, taking almost an hour and it came out zero for Otani who Diana claimed to be the kids father. There were no need to match them with Mark.

So, in conclusion, Jake was obviously their father!. However, he was absent from the court that suggested some thoughts to the judges.

At the end after a brief discussion between the judges, the sound of the gavel roared to life, indicating the judge was just about to pass a verdict or adjourn the case.

Everyone kept quiet in anticipation on what was about happening.

Diana kept her hands in her chest, Totally afraid the outcome may not favour her.

“Given the lack of violence or attitudes that are detriment to the children’s growth in both parents, I am inclined to give a probation. But the fact that the children has stayed with their mother for the past six years without knowing who their father is suggest that the children lacks the full parental support system they ought to enjoy. For that reason, I find it incumbent that the children stays three years with their father, Mr Jake.” The judged paused, gazed at the documents on his desk and continued.

“We’ll supervise the children’s three years stay with their father and if he doesn’t parent them well, we’ll give their custody to their mother! And from the evidence provided, Mr Jake is their biological and legal guardian henceforth!” The judge concluded and he banged the gavel indicating his verdict was final.

At that instant, Diana felt her heartbeat slower by the seconds… leaving her light and dizzy. The dizzying sense of weightlessness soon intensified.

Despite all that her husband had done to her….. all the pains….

He took her kids away from her…..

What could she do without them?

So, Otani is not even their father? Jake is…? Unbelievable. That demon can’t be their father!
