Chapter 22 - The Will

you have people the world would kill to have always remember that, I said as I gentle hugged her, yeah, you're right and am grateful for that, you better be, we laughed and walked out the office towards the exit to our various cars,

Ben

A call came in at 2 a.m.

Not danger.

Just a once timid being coming out to show gratitude,

A former official, stepping forward.

"Your wife made me brave Mr Cater, you are the most lucky man among all men, I smiled at his words, thank you detective and please tell Madam Ari Lock that am forever grateful and loyal to her, goodnight,

I smiled into the dark.

Ari has always been there to bring in the change, I looked at the woman sleeping soundly next me and my heart melted,

I woke up with the thoughts of the letters I wrote to my parents on my mind, I brought out a case put in the codes and the case unlocked, I just stared at the letters without blinking,

Letters I Never Sent

I wrote my parents letters I never mailed.

I told them about Ben. About the kids. About the firm.

I told them I was okay.

Everyone waited outside like it wasn't culture

Happy wins on your first case, they shouted and all started giving me hug one after the other,

They all remembered their first time.

And it mattered alot to them, I was overwhelmed with happiness that I wish the day never end, they celebrated my win, cut cake and gave me a medal is like am now fully welcome to the family where everyone is god,

I danced so Poorly and

I also danced badly at charity gala, I was never a good dancer,

Madam laughed so openly,

I tell you it feels so good to be next to the human who makes the

City Breathes Back

Reforms passed quietly.

Budgets changed.

Oversight became permanent.

No speeches.

No statues intimidation

Just fewer funerals.

I updated my will.

Not assets—principles.

Everything I am and everything I have belong to Ari and her children,

That's more then enough for me,I updated the will once more and forward it to my baby girl, she has been my personal Lawyer ever since she started practicing law,
