Chapter 38 - Trap 1

Rosa placed the cup of black coffee she had just made on the table and the door opened. A man clothed in unnecessary diamonds around his neck walked in. His entire outfit and fashion sense threw Rosa overboard as she tried to figure out just what was going through his mind. He pulled out the chair in front of him in a rather abrupt manner and sat down. Flanking his red trench coat, he made it spread generously around the arms of the chair, covering it entire, as he leaned, relaxed against the chair. He looked at Rosa and smirked.

Miss Jane was about to say something when Rosa stopped her saying, ''Miss Jane, you can leave now''

''Prosecutor Ann, are you sure?'' Miss Jane couldn't stop worrying.

''Yes, you can go'' Rosa assured her once again.

''There are two policemen outside, you can call them if things get hard''

''She said you can leave. Why are you so noisy?'' the man said irritably, casting a dead glare at Miss Jane.

''See you tomorrow, Miss Jane''

''Sure, bye, Prosecutor Ann'' Miss Jane took her bag and hurried out of the office. It was now left with Rosa and the man.

Rosa sipped her coffee again as she perused through the man's file. ''Findley Martino, right?'' she asked him.

''It is already written on the file, why bother asking me again? Or do you want to have a conversation with me, Prosecutor Ann?'' Findley chuckled.

Rosa finally looked up, facing him. Her face remained calm as she stared at his face. He had a nose piercing and there was a small dragon tattoo on his neck which Rosa presumed ran down to his chest looking at its size.

''I heard so much about you, Prosecutor Ann. I was happy when I heard my case was sent to you''

''Really? I am really curious as to why that is so?'' Rosa crossed her arms around her chest and leaned against her chair bouncing it back and forth.

''If you help me out, I will make sure you hit it big. I bet what Carlos Ryan gave you five years ago is all gone now. If you set me free, I will make sure you never run out of money. I might even become your backer and introduce you to many big shots in the business'' he said with a smirk.

''How much are you willing to pay for your freedom? I am your only hope, so you should name a price that you think you are worth?''

''I like you already. You are better than all those Prosecutors who cower and pretend to not need money but when you give it to them, they take it shivering. As you can see, I already have several reports adding to the recent one but to be honest with you. Those women caused it''

Rosa raised her brows, looking at him interestingly. It seemed the day wouldn't be over if she didn't smack this man and put him in his place.

''The women deserved it?'' she asked him and he nodded his head.

''Yes. They go about wearing those short dresses and still act all modest. To tell the truth, they ain't modest at all. We are in Blue Town; they should know better not to provoke the senses of men. That would be teasing us.

How do you expect to not be touched when you go to the club wearing all sorts of clothes? I only asked her to go home with me after I bought her a few drinks and she called me a pervert and went away. If I spent my money on her, then I should get the worth of it back, right Prosecutor? But, she left me hanging after laughing and playing with me''

''So, you decided to stalk her by digging into her social media account, found out where she stayed and then installed a hidden camera in her home just to watch her. You took several nude videos of her and started threatening her, right?'' Rosa concluded it for him.

''You are really smart but, I heard something funny on the way here'' he leaned against the table closer to Rosa.

''What did you hear?''

''I heard you were the first in your class but after the 'singlet' case you got demoted. Is that why you are made to handle my case? Listen, if you are able to let me off this time, I promise to repay you back. My uncle is Denise Martino and his son Danitus Martino is my cousin. I am extremely close to him. He will give you any amount of money, you just need to name it''

''Demoted? Right, you can see it that way, but, should I tell you something, I wasn't demoted. I was just made to handle cases of perverts like you because I have a lot of experience in handling stalkers, perverts, rapists, and serial killers'' Rosa said and tussled her locks behind her back. ''Do you want to try me? I could totally satisfy your crazy perverted thoughts''

Findley furrowed his brows as Rosa unbuttoned the first top button of her blouse, he licked his lips looking at her fair skin that was exposed and straightened himself.

''Prosecutor Ann, I didn't know you were this kind of person'' he said enticingly and Rosa chuckled, standing up from her chair.

''You like to stalk women, watch them naked and get off it, right? Do you feel excitement from molesting women? This is Blue Town, so men are allowed to behave like beasts to women? Women are not allowed to dress comfortably because men like you will say disgusting things about them''

Rosa stepped closer to him and held his collar, ''do you want to feel me up because my body is exposed right now?'' she threw him on the floor.

''Hey, you… do you know who I am. I am Findley Martino, the nephew of Denise Martino'' he tried to stand up saying.

''Really? I want to see how far your backers will go to save you from me today'' Rosa punched him on the face and broke his nose and he screamed. ''This is for groping women'' she said and landed another punch on his stomach.

''Help'' the man tried to scream and Rosa tightened the neck tie around his neck. She lifted him up and pushed him towards the door and it forcefully opened.

When the two policemen saw him staggering out with blood oozing from his mouth and nose. They were stunned.

Rosa walked out of the office and the man quickly hide behind the two policemen.

''You won't get away with this. I will you pay. You don't know who you just messed with ''I won't let this go. I am going to sue the whole prosecutors' office for this disrespect. How dare a mere woman treat me this way?'' the man said as he held his shirt that was ripped apart together. He stepped back, behind the chief prosecutor when he saw Rosa walking out. Rosa stood at the door and said to the man.

''Make sure you sue the prosecutors' office. I will be there to put trash like you where you belong. Go and tell your uncle who is a big company owner that I said he is free to sue me''

''Prosecutor Ann, what is the meaning of this? Why is he in this state after coming out of your office?'' the chief prosecutor asked walking towards them. He was in his office when he heard the noise and decided to come out.

''He wanted a strip tease so I asked him to perform one for me. He has seen a lot of that in the camera he installed in the ladies' apartments. He should feel how those innocent ladies felt about him looking at their bodies. A dirty man should be allowed to eat a little dirt for his senses to come back to him. That is what I taught him today. It was rather unfortunate it was our first and last lesson. Mister, if you have time, you can come back again for another lesson'' Rosa said and the chief prosecutor's face twisted.

''Prosecutor Ann, don't think you can go overboard just because I favour you''

''You don't favour me. You and everyone else are been biased towards me. What kind of favour are you giving me? Do I have to be grateful when I'm paying for that favour one way or the other?'' Rosa asked and the chief prosecutor turned mum.

''I forwarded his case to court. He is a habitually offender who has harmed women for the past three years. I am going to make sure he pays for his crimes'' Rosa added.

''You… how dare you send me to court? I am going to call my uncle right now. Let's see if you have the guts to still talk after you lose your job'' the man boasted and took out his phone. The chaos brought out the other prosecutors who were working on their own cases in their offices.
