Lawyer And Boss Miras
Thin Envelope

Arriving at the Court office, Dara and Jay and Noah enter the courtroom. Just five minutes before the trial began, they were almost too late. An American woman approached Dara with her panicked face eased.

"Miss Alexandra, I don't think you're coming" she said.

Dara immediately rushed to sit on the right side where the plaintiff's representative was there. Unfortunately on the opposite side there are several defendants and their lawyers. Jay soon realizes that the father is not there, his guess is apparently wrong.

Noah, who was in Jay's lap, suddenly came down and crawled out of the room. Jay who realizes it soon follows Noah. Minutes after the trial began, Dara did not realize that her son and Jay were out of the courtroom. Until he checked the bag he was tenting and found a bottle of Noah dot that he had not given Jay, making the woman turn to look at the ranks of witnesses who were sitting in the room. The woman intended to give the bottle, but she did not find Jay and Noah.

'Where is Noah?' inner Dara. Worries swirled his head, he could not focus on the opponent's argument at that time. Dara was just wailing to find where the son was. Yeah, he shouldn't trust a stranger he just met last night. Now Noah's fate will be at stake.

"Well, then I leave it to Miss Alexandra Meggie to present her claim" the judge said.

Dara who is losing concentration does not pay attention to the interruption. Her restless face left everyone in the room wondering why the woman was not standing up to present her demands in front of the judge.

"Miss Alexandra Meggie" call the judge again.

"Miss Alexandra!" The American woman next to him pulled Dara's suit so that it made Dara realize.

"Sorry, judge." Dara immediately stood up from her seat, then climbed up to the pulpit to deliver the tunes she recorded on a small notebook.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Bill Parker is now in a witness room inside the courthouse. He accidentally came out because he accidentally knew where Jay was there. In the room there is a barred window where Bill can observe the situation outside from his place.

A smile spread across his face. Observing Jay—sang adopted son—who is now patient despite being preoccupied by a one-year-old boy makes him feel haru.

"She should get married, not just do silly things that are useless now" Bill told his assistant named Freddy.

"Sir Jay felt that his business had always been clean." Freddy gave a response.

Bill smiled again, he still could not take his eyes off Jay who was out there. His hand reached into his suit pocket and picked up a cigar. As if perceptive, Freddy immediately picked up a match and ignited it into the boss's cigar.

"Who is that little boy?" ask Bill.

"It looks like he's the son of a worker's representative lawyer, Alexandra Meggie," Freddy replied. The middle-aged man was indeed very expert at gathering information.

A wry smile was etched on Bill's old face after hearing Freddy's reply.

"That means Jay's trying to investigate the other side, yeah. He's sneaky." Bill sipped his cigar, his gaze still locked on Jay. A fear suddenly filled his head.

"Whatever happens, I can't look guilty in front of Jay. Can you arrange that?" bill Pinta.

"certainly, sir. There are many alternatives that have been provided by our team of lawyers. Anyway, I'm not sure Alexandra Meggie is competent enough. He looks inexperienced, I doubt he can win the case" Freddy replied.

"You can't underestimate him. If he can provide valid evidence that shows my guilty side, the judge will still award him the trophy of victory." Bill walked out of his seat. He walked over to the window to see Jay more clearly.

"Whose clothes are he wearing?" Bill asked. As he remembered Jay never had such cheap clothes.

"Mr Jay probably bought it at the flea market to complete his disguise" Freddy said.

"You know, Fred..." Bill looked at Freddy. "I've been taking care of Jay for decades. He is like my own son. So, I beg you and the lawyers to work hard and save my image in front of Jay. You understand, don't you?"

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

As soon as the trial was over, Dara immediately ran out to look for Noah's whereabouts. The trial took about forty-five minutes and was less likely to find Noah if Jay kidnapped him, but Dara still tried to think positively.

In front of the courtroom there was no one, the woman then ran out towards the entrance of the building. There is a security officer on duty.

"Sir, did you see an Asian man and a toddler boy coming out through here?" ask Dara.

Security is trying to remember. "Sorry, miss. There are some people coming in and out of here, but I don't see the Asian man and the toddler that came out of there" he replied.

"If you may know, how much access is in and out of this building?" ask Dara again, Jay could have gone through the other door.

"There are actually three, but this is the only access road used. There's not a lot of security here, we can't keep all the doors" said the security guard.

"Oh, yeah. Thank you," said Dara. The woman then passed, tracing the entire building until she reached the free room/yard located at the back. The place was covered by a high sturdy wall, it was impossible for anyone to climb it without a ladder.

Busy circulating his gaze, Dara was startled by a throw of a rattan ball from the side. When the woman turned her head, she found two figures who had been harassing her mind since she was in the courtroom earlier. At that moment, Dara was relieved.

"Become..." Jay held Noah who was struggling on the grass. He walked up to Dara who almost cursed him if he was caught kidnapping Noah.

"Noah seemed to want to play outside, so I brought him here" Jay said before Dara even asked.

"Whose ball is this?" Dara grabs a small ball from the rattan wicker originally played by Noah.

"So there was an old man who gave Noah this ball. He said Noah reminded the grandfather of his granddaughter at home" Jay replied.

"Jay, thank you for taking care of Noah." Dara regrets suspecting Jay.

"You've been thanking me too many times, when we haven't even known for more than twenty-four hours" Jay said.

Dara smiles and grabs Noah from Jay's sling. Instead, Jay takes over the bag containing Noah's needs that were originally in Dara's hands.

"I brought it," said Jay.

"Miss Alexandra," called an American woman who came over with some people.

"Thank you for presenting our demands in front of the judge so well. In return, we gave this to you." The middle-aged woman held out a white envelope. Seemed thin in the eyes of Jay, the payment he thought was not worth the effort that had been done by Dara.

"Thank you very much" said Dara, receiving the envelope.

"We also gave you a little bit of our harvest, there's all the trucks ahead" said a middle-aged man who was also there.

"Geez, you guys are so good to me. Thank you very much."

"There's some crops, so we haul them by truck. But actually it's not much, we used the truck at once for our transportation to go to this trial" explained the middle-aged woman.

"Oh, so yeah." For a moment Dara was confused, how to bring the harvest home. He was tired of walking five kilometers without carrying anything.

"Just calm down, miss. We'll take you all the way to the stop in Asia Town" the woman said.
