Chapter 38 - CHAPTER 38...MRS BELLA

"Wait!, There is." A feminine voice came from behind as everyone turned in shock.

Shock and astonishment was visible in everyone's face as they all turned to see a young woman in her early 30's walking boldly and elegantly to the front of the hall.

"I am here as a witness my Lord"..

"I'm quite aware you all don't know me, I am Mrs Bella. Lexa over here reached out to me a couple of days ago, concerning her court case and I promised her to be here today." Mrs Bella said.

"Attorney Robinson, please lead your witness to the witness box so we can all hear what she has to say." The judge said as Mrs Bella was directed to the witness box.

"My name is Mrs Bella as I said earlier, I didn't know Lexa anywhere until I met her at a restaurant about 2 months ago. She and her supposed husband came to this restaurant on this fateful day, just like every other couples there. I really wasn't paying a close attention to them but I know a scene was created because of a mere phone call.

This young man slapped his wife directly on the face and shattered her cell phone right in front of everyone. He called her a slut,added to that, he also rained abuses on an elderly couple that came to defend Lexa. Can you believe he left his wife stranded at a restaurant and zoomed off!. In a restaurant full of different race of people, all staring at her. Some laughed, while some mocked and abused ber the more. I watched this poor girl bow her head in shame and complete humiliation. This young girl ran to the ladies room and all she could pray for was death. I watched her cry and beg death to take her. Do you know how traumatized she was, this was in the public eye for heaven's sake, imagine what he does to her in private?" Mrs Bella paused to catch her breath as tears rolled down from her eyes.

"I can't imagine the sufferings and torture this girl might have gone through in the hands of an abusive and irresponsible husband. I also went through all this when I was her age, due to my parents poverty, they married me off to an abusive monster. I was beaten, insulted, raped, abused and tortured as I swore to myself never to let another young girl go through that same path.

Mr Cameron, the Women Rights Association will come after you, and we will surely torture you and make you beg for death just as you made Lexa beg." Mrs Bella said before wiping her eyes with a scarf and stepping out of the witness box.

"The footage of Attorney Robinson will be played now, and I will proceed to give my judgement right after that." The judge announced.

The video was displayed on the projector and made visible for everyone to see.

Whispers were been heard as people shook their heads, while others turned to glance at Cameron as they spat fire and brimstone on him.

"How could you.....how dare you Cameron!. How could you be this wicked and evil, how could you treat my child like this. You will pay dearly for this I promise you!." Lady Hazel cried as the video continued to play.

Cameron's eyes popped up as his heart beat thrice the normal beat, how they managed to hey hold of the footage he couldn't tell. At the end of the video, the hall went rowdy as people cursed on him, some whispered how eveil he could be while the rest were happy that justice will finally be served.

Cameron, got into the witness box as directed by his attorney.

"Mr Cameron, the witnesses present have all made their statements, and the footage gotten from your house has been played. You have heard all what you have been accused of, you attorney has presented your case as not guilty, while your opponents have also presented your case as guilty. Do you plead guilty or not guilty Mr Cameron?"..
