Chapter 167: Chapter 167

The chattering and happy moment was welcomed by an airy silence, especially when the judge walked back in.

The faces of the people were hopeful, only doctor Bobby looks like a condemned man, from all that have been said, there is no way the judgement will be to his favour, and he isn't even asking for that, all he wants is to have a chance to make peace with his children before he dies.

The judges receiver announced that the judge had settled, and so everyone sat down, only after she had sat down, but Doctor Bobby was still standing.

Sandra would have also been made to stand, but with what just happened to her, she was asked to sit down.

The judge started by asking her why she had attempted to kill herself. And without hesitation, she answered.

" That is what I deserve, I don't deserve to live, and that is why I tried to take my life.

Before now, I wanted to believe that I have a chance to love, and even though, someone is trying really hard to give me hope, that things could actually turn out differently, I still have this fear that it will never turn out well, so I wanted to end it, even before I get the verdict. So I wanted to get everyone to forgive me before it gets out of hand, which is what I did, before the effect took over me". She explained, drawing everyone's pity on her.

"Doctor Bobby, do you have any other thing to say before the verdict?

She asked him coldly, and he shook his head as to say yes, to which he was granted audience.

He clears his throat and started calmly.

"I know, my voice is the last voice most of you want to hear.

I have wronged all the people that have placed their trust in me, and I don't deserve even a second chance.

I just pray and ask for only one thing, that I get the chance to speak with my kids".

He says, looking at Dylan, who looks angrily at him.

He surely doesn't look like he plans to forgive him anytime soon.

Vicky on the other hand, wasn't looking at him, so he couldn't really tell if she is going to be willing to grant him his last wish.

"Now here is my judgement.

After careful examination of what happened, we have come to realize that Doctor Bobby is guilty of multiple cases.

He is guilty of murder, abuse, attempted murder, and production of harmful substances, and giving it to a sick person to use, without guidance, he is here by, sentenced to 35 years in prison with hard labour and no parole".

He looked down, that is a long time.

He will be an old man by the time he is to come out of prison, or he will already be dead, and what point will that be for him, he isn't going to be able to start again, because his licence have been taken away from him.

He won't be able to leave a legacy, because everything is ruined for him.

He let his tears drop, but she was not done.

His hospital is supposed to be shut down, but no, it will be handed over to his daughter to run, You can all agree with me, that with what we have seen today, she has the gifted hand, she will further her education, and with guidance from the health cancel, she will run the place. We can say, she knows about Medicine too, so she is going to be better of at the hospital, handling and making it a better place, with new hope for people".

Vicky wanted to refuse, but she haven't been given the opportunity to speak, so she just kept quiet, waiting for when she will be called to speak, then she can tell her, what she thinks.

His lands, and properties, will be shared between his two children, it should help them have a fresh start, which means, he should already have just one chance to share his will before going into his new home".

He nodded again, when she was done, she asked him.

"Do you have any issues with the verdict?

"He looked up and answered.

"You are a mind reader. Thank you". She nodded, then went further to read the second.

"As for you Miss Sandra, you are guilty, and you are charged for murder, and wrong application of potion, which should be hidden, and kept far away. You are charged for stealing it the second time you used it, you are charged for falsifying a result you presented to this court, as your pregnancy result, and you are charged for lying to this noble house, but... because of your Ill health, you will spend five years in prison with hard labour and no parole, five years in rehabilitation center, where you should get help, and certified to be okay, then and only then, can you be bailed out with nothing less than a billion dollars, so whoever is willing to help you, can start now, to search for the money.

This is my judgement!

She says, and they heard the announcer.

"Court! They all arose, the judge left, and they all started leaving.

Sandra still has a better chance, but for doctor Bobby, that was an indirect way of keeping him in there for life, checking his age, he is already 65 years old, having him spend 35 years in prison, is indirectly telling him to die there.

She on the other hand is just in her early twenties, in ten years time, she will still be full of life and hope, she could still make it and start anew, but she feels bad for bobby.

She was hoping his children will grant him his wish, before he is taken away, but she watch them leave, without even looking at his direction.

Samantha came close, staring into her eyes, probably thinking she will react in an angry way like she used to, but she took the chance to apologize again.

"I am sorry for everything Sam. I really am".

"It's okay, I hope you get better". Same says, and walks out with Craig beside her.

Elvis came and gave her a tight hug.

"Please, don't ever do that again". He had to tell her, since she looks like she has plans to take her life again.

"I am sorry Elvis, but I will never try that again". She says with a smile, and hugs him.

"Don't worry about the money, I will stash it out and bail you when the time comes". He says, and she couldn't believe her ears.

"Are you saying you are going to wait for me? He smiles.

"You ask, because you do not know how long I have loved you, but you never even looked me in the eye before.

I will wait for as long as it takes, I will visit you everyday, and I will make sure you get all the help you need".

She was scared of his promises, but she believes him, he was giving her hope, a new hope at a better life, when she gets out.
