Chapter 14

Amelia

I shoved the yogurt into my mouth so hard, I nearly bit the spoon itself. It was a narrow miss, but I was too wrapped up in my thoughts to even notice. While I often ate fruit for breakfast, I tried to incorporate more protein into my lunch, and a sandwich was often on the menu.

But today, I had been too busy in the morning to make a proper breakfast, and it seemed my day had gone to Hell anyway. It had been the morning of a big case, and things hadn’t gone in my favor.

I had started the day thinking I was going to walk with the case ending on our side. But, the prosecution threw me a few curveballs, and I didn’t figure out how to respond fast enough. By the end of the trial, my client was more than a little upset with me, and he was on his way to jail.

It was beyond the point of getting a plea deal, and he was going to have to face the full force of the charges. It meant he was going to be given a few weeks in jail, along with a lot higher of a fee than I wanted him to end up with. But, most of all, it was going to be a black mark on his record, and I really didn’t want him to have to go through that.

But, there wasn’t anything I could do about it now. I had taken the brunt of a lot of remarks when I got back to the office. Even promising my client I was going to come see him in jail and see what we could work out didn’t seem to be enough to satisfy him.

He was going to have to go through with the punishment, and it was all because I wasn’t ready for all the angles that the prosecution had thrown my way. It pissed me off, and it did throw a bit of a curveball into the confidence I felt with the other cases.

It wasn’t as big of a case as I was dealing with for Roman, and I hated to think of what he was facing if he didn’t end up with the results we were hoping for. After all, I had gone over the paperwork and felt sure he was innocent, but that didn’t mean I could convince a jury of the same thing.

To think that he might go to jail for the rest of his life made me sick to my stomach. Hell, it wasn’t even going to be jail. He was going to prison if he was convicted.

Perhaps they would even push for a worse punishment. Sure, the victim might not have died, but it was a brutal attack. There was no doubt in my mind that he was going to be seeking the highest prosecution against whoever had attacked him.

I was, of course, on his side. I hated to think that anyone was going to have to go through that and not get the justice they deserved.
