Adopted novel Chapter 80

"Do you want a drink princess," grandpa Asher asked running his fingers through my hair, I shake my head in response. I just wanted this day to be over, fly back to New York and cuddle between Justin and Ameer or better still mom and dad.

Two hours after, the jury returned to their seat with the judge making us stand for him to take his seat and sat after.

"The jury have their verdicts ready and they will call out their verdicts for the court to hear," the judge started looking at the jury seat.

"GUILTY," they all shouted immediately bringing a smile on my face and tears down my cheeks. I was finally going to get justice for one of the many abuses I went through and the taste of victory was something I wanted to keep savoring.

"Based on the evidences provided and words from the victim which none of the accused called out, the jury verdicts and all other processed facts the four of you are found guilty for child molestation, abuse and second-degree murder for leaving her at the brink of death," the judge started making the quiet room quieter.

"Here is my verdict, the four of you are sentenced to 99 years with hard labor and no parole, also no plea for possible parole. I rise" the judge concluded standing on his feet immediately.

We all stood up as he walked back to his office, I sat back still in shock 99 years of imprisonment with no possible parole, my first ever justice felt very unbelievable.

"Are you fine sweetie?" my mom asked sitting beside me and dad sat at my other side.

"99 years," I whispered.

"They deserved more if you ask me," dad responded pulling me into a side hug.

"I got justice," I said just realizing what happened, I finally got justice.

I ran out of the room to meet those who have been standing in front of the court building, "I got justice," I screamed out to them, they all shouted out for joy I stood there watching them rejoice on my behalf and mom's previous words came to play, I wasn't alone.

"Let's get out of here, who wants to see where I grew up?" I shouted and I got more response than expected.

"I will tell Harry we will have dinner with him instead of lunch," I heard Sophia say tying away on her phone.

"You mean, the judge" I whispered to her and I got a smile back.

"He's mom elder brother," Lorenzo answered me pulling me into himself and placed a kiss on my head "Congratulation baby," he said making me blush very hard.
