Chapter 46 - Building the Case (Part-4)

3rd Person Pov

Dinner with Cameron and Harvey ran its course smoothly, a mixture of heavy steaks, old war stories, and a quiet undertone of testing where Liam stood when it came to the case.

By the time they parted, Liam had gathered what he needed.

Cameron wanted him close and nurture him as he was talented, Harvey on the other hand respected Liam who pulled of something they couldn't but doesn't plan on working...

Chapter 45 - Back to Officer

Liam's Pov 

The elevator doors slid open with a dull chime, and I stepped into the familiar, humming atmosphere of the DA's office. 

The fluorescent lights washed the halls in sterile white, and the muted clatter of keyboards and ringing phones filled the air. 

My suit jacket still felt warm against my back from the ride on the bike. 

Outside, autumn's chill had crept into New York, but here it was bu...

Chapter 44 - Reporters and Harvey & Cameron

The heavy oak doors of the Manhattan Criminal Courthouse swung open, spilling the hum of noise from inside into the crisp afternoon air.

Marcus Hale stormed out first, his jaw tight and his eyes full of rage, the image of a man who'd just taken a public beating he hadn't prepared for.

Right on his heels was his lawyer, Gregory Stone, the sharp-dressed Bratton Gould partner who had walked into court with confidence, but was now ...

Chapter 43 - Liam vs Marcus Hale Part-1

3rd Person POV 

The Manhattan morning was sharp with autumn air, sunlight bouncing off the steel and glass of the skyscrapers as Liam's bike pulled into Worth Street. 

The Manhattan Criminal Court loomed ahead—an austere gray slab of concrete and glass, squared columns rising like the teeth of some great bureaucratic beast. 

The building wasn't beautiful, not like the old courthouses that looked like cathedrals o...

Chapter 42 - Begins

Liam’s POV 

The next morning came early or rather, it was dragged into existence by Eve.

[Wake up, Liam. It’s time. Today is important]

Her voice pulsed in my mind like a firm hand on the shoulder, insistent but not unkind. 

I groaned and sat up in bed, rubbing my face. My eyes stung from a shorter sleep than I wanted, but there was no point lingering.

A run always cleared my head so I changed into my workout clothes...

Liam's PoV

“Hey,” Marshall said, sliding in beside Lily. “Guys, this is Liam. We met back in the library. Liam, this is my fiancée Lily—” he gestured proudly “—and our good friend Robin.”

Both women blinked at me, momentarily caught off guard. Lily recovered quickly, her smile polite but cautious. Robin, however, blushed faintly, her eyes flicking over me more than once before she managed a smile.

The elevator ride down felt longer than usual, the mechanical hum loud in the silence. When the doors opened to the basement, the scent of motor oil and concrete hit me again. I swung a leg over my bike, pulled my helmet on, and kicked the engine to life. The familiar vibration thrummed through me

Chapter 39 - Emma Frost Dating?

Liam's Pov

When were almost finished eating, Emma disappeared into her room for a moment and came back holding something in her hands. She dropped it onto the coffee table with a soft thud. A thick envelope.

I frowned. “What’s this?”

“Two hundred grand.”

I blinked at her. “You’re just… handing me cash like we’re in a mob movie?”

She rolled her eyes. “Don’t be dramatic. It’s the two h...

I straightened in my chair, my pulse kicking up. "John… this is enough to keep the case alive."

"Found it in an abandoned office across the street," he explained.

"The tenants vacated the day before the exchange but the cameras were only removed the next morning after the exchange. Cops didn't bother—assumed the cams were gone since the tenant had vacated before the incident night. I traced it back to ...

Chapter 37 - Building the Case (Part-3)

Liam’s POV

I pulled the bike over when a café’s sign caught my eye. My arms were trembling on the handlebars, helmet heavy on my head.

Sweat ran down my face, my shirt clinging like I’d just run a marathon. Ten minutes—that was all I had managed.

Ten minutes of forcing my Sharingan into someone’s mind to control and it had nearly gutted me.

I killed the engine, dragged myself off the seat, and st...

Chapter 36 - Building the Case (Part-2)

Liam’s Pov

The rumble of my bike faded as I rolled into the DA Office’s parking. Kill the engine. Helmet off. Another day yet the same fight.

Upstairs, the security check was routine. Badge scan, metal detector, nod from the guard. 

I walked past the crowded bullpen—phones ringing, papers shuffling, lawyers and assistants darting around like ants with too many fires to put out. 

The smell of...

3rd Person POV

Anna didn’t even look up from her desk as Harvey breezed past her as she knew better. 

He didn’t even knock when it came to Cameron Dennis. 

He didn’t ask permission. He didn’t wait to be announced and Cameron never called him out for it.

That was the rhythm between Harvey Specter and Cameron Dennis.

Inside, Cameron was hunched over a file, glasses low on his nose,...

Liam's Pov

I leaned back in my chair, rubbing my temples as the last set of images faded from the HUD. A half-hour. That's all it had taken.

Without Eve, I'd still be drowning in open tabs, Wild goose chase and dead ends. This kind of work wasn't hours—it was days.

I exhaled, a rare softness tugging at my voice.
"Eve… this research, all of it—it would've taken me days on my own. With you, we've got it nailed...

Liam’s Pov

I rolled into the basement, the bike’s engine cutting off with a low growl that quickly died in the concrete silence. Helmet under my arm, I walked to the elevator, hit the button, and leaned back against the wall as the faint hum carried me up.

The apartment door clicked open easily, and I stepped inside. The living room was dark — no Emma on the couch. I locked the door behind me, the sound echoing louder than it shou...

Liam's Pov

'John Wick!'

His eyes scanned the diner once, then locked on me. Without hesitation, he crossed over and slid into the booth opposite me.

The booth felt smaller when he sat down across from me. John Wick didn’t fill space with words; he filled it with silence, the kind that pressed on your chest until you broke it yourself.

I leaned back against the booth, hand wrapped around my coffee. “Been a while....

The door clicked shut behind me as I tossed the keys onto the counter. The apartment smelled of something warm and comforting—garlic, herbs, and roasted vegetables.

"Perfect timing," Emma's voice called from the kitchen. She emerged wearing an apron, her hair tied up loosely, carrying two plates. "I thought we'd have dinner together. First day as a prosecutor deserves somet...

"One more thing" I asked, slightly narrowing my eyes, "The lactose powder." 

Ruiz groaned under his breath, running a hand through his hair. "Yeah… that."

Cross leaned back in his chair, jaw tight. "We thought it was another bag of coke. Bagged it, tagged it, did everything by the book. Then the lab comes back—milk powder. Freaking milk powder. Whole precinct ha...

Before she could reply, my phone buzzed. Beth Potts.

I answered. "Harper."

"Mr. Harper," Beth said, her tone brisk but polite. "I've confirmed with the precinct. Detectives Raymond Cross and Officer Daniel Ruiz—the two officers who arrested Marcus Hale—are available. You can meet them at the 9th Precinct, East Village, 1 p.m." 2025-08-29 00:12:20 +0000 UTC View Post

'Now,' I thought, eyes narrowing. 'Let's talk game plan.'

I leaned forward, elbows on the desk, eyes fixed on the highlighted words lactose powder burning in my HUD.

[I'm listening.]

'First, I need to talk to the cops who arrested Hale. Get their reports firsthand. If they're sloppy, they'll contradict themselves. If they're clean, I'll know what I'm up against and if possible ask them to recheck the traffic cam'...

"This way, Mr. Harper."

We walked down the hallway, the hum of phones ringing, the shuffle of paper, and the occasional clipped voice of lawyers debating points of law bleeding from half-open office doors. 

The air carried that faint mix of burnt coffee and old paper—smelled like work that never really ended.

Anna stopped in front of a modest-looking desk outside an office door. Sitting the...

Cameron leaned back in his chair, that smirk still lingering, and reached for the phone on his desk.

He pressed a single button, his tone brisk and commanding.

"Anna, bring me the Marcus Hale case file."

My brow arched almost involuntarily. Marcus Hale?

Eve's voice chimed softly in my ear, smooth and efficient.

[Pulling it up now]

My HUD blinked alive. A news clip appear...

Chapter 25 - Meeting Cameron Dennis

Liam's Pov

Anna led me through a maze of corridors that seemed to hum with urgency—law clerks carrying towers of documents, secretaries on phones coordinating schedules, and the sharp click of polished shoes against marble floors. 

Eventually, we reached a quieter hallway where the air seemed heavier, more deliberate. The plaque on the door said it all:

Liam's Pov 

We got back to the apartment after breakfast, sunlight spilling lazily across the polished wooden floors. As soon as I stepped inside, something immediately caught my eye—hanging from the coat rack was a sleek black garment bag.

I raised an eyebrow. "What's this?"

Emma, who had already kicked off her heels with her usual effortless grace, arched a brow back at me. "Open it."

Liam's Pov

Our food arrived, plates steaming, coffee hot. I dug into mine, the flavors instantly grounding me back to New York—crispy bacon, golden yolk spilling over toast, strong black coffee cutting through the heaviness. 

Across from me, Emma delicately spread avocado across her toast, her posture as precise at a diner as it would be at a business lunch.

For a while, we just ate in comfortable silence, the kind of...

Mom and I wheeled my luggage into the lounge she'd reserved, the soft lighting and quiet hum of conversation a welcome contrast to the airport's usual chaos. 

Plush chairs and low tables made the space feel more like a private living room than a terminal.

Once we settled in, I began recounting my recent visit to my brothers. "Yeste...

"Oh… wow," she muttered, her fingers tracing the numbers. "That… uh… comes to $1,800."

It was time and I locked my apartment and went downstairs, but as I stepped into the fourth floor hallway, Penny's door swung open.

She stepped out in a soft, sleeveless summer dress — pale yellow with a subtle floral pattern. 

Her hair was loose, slightly wavy, and her skin carried that healthy glow that could've sold skincare c...

Then we heard movement near the back door.
