It's him!

Cassandra stood in front of her old school building. She couldn't continue after her high school in there since it was said to be closed forever by some political parties. After that huge commotion, this school was abandoned.

There were rumors that some gangsters took over this building as their own and nobody cared about it.

Right now she was more confused about how her professor knew this place. Everything around her was getting mysterious day by day.

Her phone started ringing when she was about to enter the building and pulled an annoying face on seeing the caller's ID. It was her little brother Ivan.

𝘜𝘨𝘩!! 𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘯𝘰𝘸? She groaned and picked up the call.

" I heard today you were going to meet a new client who is also a criminal. I just wanted to wish you luck since it is your first time in such a case. Hope you make it alive out of there and yeah, don't forget to bring some fries on your way back home!"

This little.....he hung up on her before replying. This brat wouldn't ever stop annoying. She had no time for this and thought of taking care of him later. She sighed and entered the building with many questions in her mind.

She saw many bodyguards as she entered the building. It felt as if entering into a world of illegal business. She could sense weird stares as she passed by them but they didn't stop her . Maybe they were told of her arrival before hand.

She looked around the building in awe, " Woah, nothing has changed. It looks like this is gonna unlock many memories.....ack what the fuck, there wasn't any wall in here before". She lifted her head to look and damn, it wasn't a wall, it was him!

Those blue eyes , chiseled face and this tall, it could be only him, no one else . Shit! Shit ! Shit! She wanted to run away from there but her body was completely still due to closeness. Her breath hitched looking at the figure standing before her.

𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘨𝘰𝘥 ! 𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘯𝘰𝘸! 𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘮𝘦! she thought.

He made a small smirk, and then turned into an expressionless face. 𝘞𝘢𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵, 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵'𝘴 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘮 𝘯𝘰𝘸? 𝘞𝘢𝘴 𝘴𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦? 𝘐𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦, 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘥𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 ?

He wouldn't have followed her after morning's incident. "Oh come on Cassy! I might have watched too many documentaries ." She whispered.

" I didn't know you liked bumping into me this much, especially checking out " he said with the same smirk. The heck! She felt like a pervert listening to it. She stared at him with a tint of anger in her eyes . He started again,

" I don't think this place is suitable for a fragile girl like you. Shouldn't you be somewhere else than roaming around in this unknown building and who let you inside here? Where are the bodyguards? Did they all go blind? "

That was all anger took over and she shouted. " Who do you think you are to decide whether I should come here or not? Do you own this place? People like you always like to look down on others. What's your problem huh? I don't even know you!"

" Exactly you don't know me so you cant just judge me too. "

There was pain in his eyes. 𝘋𝘪𝘥 𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘥𝘪𝘴𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘥? 𝘚𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘩𝘪𝘮 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵!

She walked away from there deciding not to waste her time on him. She went to the science lab as instructed. There she saw her professor talking to someone else , maybe that was her client.

Clearing her throat ,she called out to her professor. He had a smile on his face and it didn't seem to be a good one at least to her.

The client she had to deal with was a criminal but judging from the looks, it was far more from just a murder. Murders weren't committed for fun, Neither to hear their prey begging for life nor just a simple revenge.

" You are finally here, Cassandra. I've been waiting for quite a long time. Thanks for coming on my request. Here, let me introduce your client. "

He introduced Cassandra to the person. " Nice to meet you, Ms. Brown. Myself Matthew Gray, I hope you will help me out in this case. "

" Nice to meet you too, Mr. Grey. I will cooperate in this as far as possible by myself."

" Well, now that you both have got to know each other, we need to continue this case as fast as possible. We don't have much time left." She had a questionable look on her face and it felt as if professor had expected it.

" Before that, there's someone else you should meet " he said. ' Wait! Who else is there another criminal I've gotta deal with? Cut the crap! ' She groaned in her mind. She heard a knock on the door.

" You are late Alex. Come here, my boy." She was about to turn towards the direction where the professor was mentioning but stopped on hearing the voice.

" Sorry for the delay, uncle. Had to deal with someone." that voice, She was damn sure about who it was before even seeing him. Why is was here? was the only thought in her mind.

" Meet the psychologist I mentioned earlier, Cassandra Brown. She is my top most recommended student out of many whom I've taught.

Cassandra, he is the lawyer who will be dealing with the case. Alexander Morris , my one and only nephew and one of the smartest lawyers with the highest win rates."

She turned her head and boom! It was him. There was a shock in his face too. But soon it became a smirk. Ugh! that smirk. She hated it to the core.

" N-Nice to meet you, Mr. Morris." She said with the least possible smile.

" Pleasure to meet you Ms. Brown. I'm not as dangerous as I look, so you don't have to be nervous." he said with the same smirk.

𝘐 𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘬𝘦 𝘩𝘪𝘮 𝘯𝘰𝘸. Her thoughts were disrupted by the professor.

" Now I need all your cooperation on this , since Alex already knows about the case, let me explain it to you, Cassandra. Matthew is the most trusted person I ever know and if he has done something like this, then it means there is some serious reason behind it."

From his expression she could say that there was something more than just emotions in this case. He continued further.

" Matthew's one and only daughter, who was 14yr old, was raped and killed. Just like any parent would do, he filed a case too, but it turned out that it was helpless. Two years had passed and still there was no trace of justice.

That's when he tried his best to follow the rapist and killed him. But it seems that there is another problem with that. The family of the rapist wants Matthew to be arrested and it seems like they don't know about what their son had done to a 14yr-old."

She was beyond shocked listening to it. A helpless father who only wanted justice was being accused. At one point, what he did was wrong, but that was the reality.

What else could he do when he had lost the only daughter he treasured the most? Her thoughts were interrupted as Alexander started to speak
