Need Help? Call A Lawyer

The Very next day....Olivia, Beverly and I and Sersi...met with a federal judge in the District Courthouse....

"Ms. Olivia, Ms. Beverly, I am so nervous about this hearing." said Sersi....

"Relax Sersi....I hear this is a good guy...a pretty liberal judge..." said Olivia..

At least that is what Beverly and my research of the guy turned up, I thought....

"He's a good guy ,despite his last name" joked Beverly ,trying to keep the mood light...

The judges's name was Anthony Meany...And he looked mean too...Short, Fat, balding, with a comb over and horned rimmed glasses...He looked no nonsense....

"Well Sersi...We are up after this next case...cross your fingers." said Olivia ,with a hopeful smile..

"Pray" I whispered in his ear...I was completely serious....I just had a feeling that maybe just this once...My wife and her niece...brilliant though they may be....might come up short this time..

I don't know how many cases I had worked on with them over the past three or four years....cases seemingly impossible to win and at no time did I not feel confident that the girls couldn't pull it out until today...

I was so nervous ,I had butterflies in my stomach....I didn't eat breakfast....Nor did I try to sneak a quickie in with Olivia this morning...

"Oh my god...You don't want to have sex?  You are worried..." said Olivia as she got dressed this morning.."You sure?" she asked , then pulled me to her...She was naked and still dripping wet...

She kissed me so softly and so tenderly that I must admit...I did get an erection...She noticed it and smiled...

"Ummmmm that's more like it...but too late!!!...You'll have to wait until later....I just got out of the shower...Don't want to get all sweaty." she said ,smiling at me alluringly...I hated it when she teased me...

"Now Sersi looked on hopefully as the hearing began....

II-

Across town at the Medical examiner's office...Another drama was unfolding...A drama that would be far more graver than what we were involved in today.....

Doc Givens...The Coroner looked at Dr. Hazel Baylor, Forensic Investigator...

"Well?" he asked..

"It's conclusive...This is Ginger Deadwyler...28 at the time of her disapearence...Missing for over ten years....The body is in good shape, considering it was underwater all that time....This body bag was air tight...It was one of our old ones.."said Hazel..

Doc Gibbons looked at it...

"Yeah, it is..About 10 years ago, before you started working here...There was a big theft of one of our warehouses...about 200 body bags were stolen..We suspected criminals stole em for the purpose of covering up murders.." said Doc Gibbons..

"Cause of death is definitely, Homicide...She was strangled.....Oh and something else...doc!" Hazel said.

"What's that?" asked Doc Gibbons...

"She was pregnant!! There was a three month old fetus inside of her..."

"Oh lawd!" said Doc Gibbons... "You know she was married to an Attorney..Ennis Deadwyler....You know, you've probably seen his cheesey commercials on late night TV-  "Need Help? Call A Lawyer!" He's a slip and fall Attorney...but at one time..He was a Public defender....and before that he worked at a big corporate firm...Hell of an Attorney...but he uh had his problems over the years...drinkin...womanizin....This girl married him...She was a waitress at Sam Mother's Restaurant....I remember her...Then she went missin....Cops brought him in three times...Dug up his basement...Had cadaver dogs search his place, but they couldn't find a trace of her..Did the luminol test in the house...Never turned up nothin...But he surprisingly refused to give us A DNA swab...Still they had nothin to hold him on, so they had to let him go..."said Doc Givens...

"Wow! Reminds me of the Richard Graves case...They still haven't found his wife or her remains..."said Hazel..

"Funny you mention that case....both of them had the same lawyer...Olivia Bennett-Alexander!" he said.

"Really?" said Hazel, smiling..

"Yeah, Livy was a Public defender then, top of her class....She kept Ennis out of jail..He was never charged...Cops couldn't find her and there was no proof she was dead or living, so after awhile the case just went cold."said Doc Givens...

"Well it's hot now after all these years...Now that we've found her body...He'd better give Olivia a call." said Hazel...

"Yeah...That would be my move. He'd better call her quick too!" said Doc Gibbons.

III-

And at the courthouse...A Jubilant Sersi hugged Olivia and Beverly...

"Ms. Olivia, Ms. Beverly....I -I am at a loss for words, I don't know how to thank you.." he said, Tears welling up in his eyes..

''Awww just go be with your family.." said Beverly.

"Yes....be with your family...How Long has it been since you've seen them?" asked Olivia..

''A year....I have traveled back and forth to my homeland at least three times a year...But now ..my wife, my son,my daughter and my mother and father will be reunited with me....Thanks to that kind Judge and you guys.." he said.

"They will be contacted from Damascus tomorrow and they'll be flying in tomorrow night..."I said.

"Beverly and I will meet you at the airport with the paperwork and the order signed by the Judge...Just make sure you have their new Visas with you.." said Olivia..

"Oh I will...I will.." he said.

"We told you...We'd get your family here didn't we?" said Beverly...

"You guys are the best...you should have TV show.." he said..

I cracked up laughing...

"Then we wouldn't be the best..."laughed Olivia...

"Can you guys drop me off at Foxworth and Associates?

 I'm going to stay at Nelson's tonight.." said Beverly...

"You didn't pack an overnite bag.." said Olivia..

"Don't need to...I have a few outfits over his apartment...Toothbrush, panties, bras...towels..."laughed Beverly....

"He definitely can't bring another woman there....You've left your mark all over the place." I laughed...

Beverly laughed....

"Yup...and it wasn't my idea...It was his...He says he likes something of me to always be there...Guy takes my clothes to the dry cleaners and does my laundry sometimes." she said, shrugging...

"That poor boy...He's been hopelessly in love with you since the day I first brought you to the office."laughed Olivia..

"That's not a bad thing Auntay... I love him too!"laughed Beverly...

"Nooooooooo not at all.I love the fact that he loves you so much and it's being returned.. "laughed Olivia.

IV-

Once we were home alone, Olivia looked at me...as she undressed slowly....

"And you were worried..." she said..

"I admit...I was...but you and Bev are just something else in the courtroom...."I said.

''From what I've been told...I'm no slouch in the bedroom either..." said Olivia...looking at me and smiling...

"That is true...I have heard this...In fact, I know this for a fact..."I said as I began to slowly take off my suit jacket..shirt, trousers, socks and shoes..."That is very true...

"Ummmmmmm come over here and find out once again..." she said....

We were in the middle of the floor kissing passionately...She stroked my penis with her soft hands...

"My goodness Donnie Ray...I swear you get bigger everytime..." she whispered...

"Maybe I do.." I said..

Her lips were so soft....I was becoming aroused beyond belief....Something that wasn't lost on Olivia..


"LAWD!" I said..


"Oh Mr. Alexander.." she giggled...looking up at me....and smiling..


"Donnie Ray....Your penis!!!...It's..It's shaking again.......You really are excited aren't you?  Calm down....Calm down...It's going to be okayyyy" she said, stroking it lightly...

"Can't help that..."I laughed sheepishly...

"Oh My god...you're as hard as an iron pipe...I'm going to have to take care of that...now!!!Ummmmmm"she said..

I smiled sheepishly...

"Yes...You will..." I said.

 "Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Easy Donnie Ray, Easyyyyy."Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Donnie Ray..Ohhhhhhhhh my godddd...Ummmmmmm, you are just showing off...Ouuuuuu lawd!" she whispered...

In no time , we were lying on the bed....

I entered her softly,gently...She was wet and warm...I was losing my mind...as I began to move up and down slowly at first and then gradually faster...

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Donnie Ray..Ohhhhhhhhh my godddd!!" she moaned...

Five to Six hours of lovemaking continued...The bed had been  squeaking loudly and the headboard was moving and silently slamming against the wall...

"Ummmmmmmm Donnie Ray, ouuuuuuuuuuuuu...give it to mama...Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"she moaned..

"Yesss baby yes...." I moaned..

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" she moaned loudly...

 "Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu MISTER ALEXANDER...OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" she cried out....

  The bed squeaked even louder.....

  "Yess...Yessssssssssssssssssss...YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! Ouuuuuuuu YESSSSS!" she screamed....

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu ...oh my god...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"I moaned...

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu lawd...ohhhhhhhh Donnie Ray...You are just showing off...You just showing off...ohhhhhhhhhh" she wailed..

She moaned softly as the massive bed began to squeak and slam against the wall harder...
''Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...Ohhh baby, give it to meeeeee....ummmmmmph...GIVE IT TO MAMA"

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... OLIVIA......ouuuuuuuuuu, more, more... ohhhhhh..."

"YES BABY YES...CALL MY NAME.....ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...CALL MY NAME!!You can have all you want!!Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu....."she moaned.

Another hour and a half went by...

I came so hard...I swear I felt like crying...

So did she...shaking, crying like a baby....and sweating.. 

V-

Olivia and I took a nice long ,hot shower in which we soaped each other down and kissed passionately..

We barely heard the phone ringing....as we got out and toweled ourselves down....

"I believe that's your phone ringing baby." I said.

 "Yes it is....I wonder if that's Beverly?" asked Olivia as she picked up her phone..It was a quarter to six in the morning...

"Olivia Bennett-Alexander!" she said.

"Hi Liv...it's been a long time hasn't it?" came the voice..

"Who is this?" she asked..

"It's me..Ennis...Ennis Deadwyler..." he said.

"Oh My God!!! Ennis!!!! It has been a long time.." said Olivia..

''What are you doing right now?" he asked.

"I'm in my slip, sitting on my husband's lap!" said Olivia...

"Please tell me you remarried and aren't married to that damn Elwood Barnes.."he asked..

"Elwood and I have been divorced for seven years....I have a new husband...Not that new...We've been married for about three years now...He's the investigator for my firm...Ex Homicide Detective."said Olivia proudly...

''Well that's great....a good man to have...How's that pretty little niece of yours?" he asked..

"Beverly works with me...She's my partner in my law firm.."said Olivia...

"Niceeeeeeeeeeeee...Niceeeeeeeeeee...You have really come a long way....Got your own practice, got your niece with you, new husband...Great..." he said..

There was an uneven silence...

"So Ennis...Considering the hour....I'm guessing this is more than a social call." said Olivia.. We weren't accustomed to getting phone calls this early in the morning...

"Liv, they found Ginger yesterday.." he said..

My wife's face went blank....

"What?" she said..

"She was in a barrel, floating out in the Deleware River...She'd been murdered and get this...She was three months pregnant at the time of her death!" he said.

"Yours right?" said Olivia..

"I can't be sure...She was cheating on me..but I didn't kill her..I swear..."

"How did you find out all of this?" asked Olivia..

"I have a friend over at the M.E.'s office...Remember what Hoagie taught us..A good Attorney has friends in all of the right places.." said Ennis..

Olivia smiled at the memory..

She and Ennis had graduated from Penn Law school together and taken the bar and passed it at the same time...Both had been Public defenders and both had gone different directions...

"Have the police contacted you yet?" asked Olivia..

"Nah...but you know they will....It was Tragg's case...He hates me and he wants me bad!" said Ennis..

"And you want my services?" asked Olivia...

"Yes...you're the best lawyer I know...Next to me.." he laughed...

"Okay Ennis...Well uh ,drop by my office tomorrow....I uh am a little uh busy right now." she said...

"Oh ...Oh yeah....It is nearly six am...Okay Liv....I look forward to uh meeting your new husband.." he said and hung up...

"Now ...Where were we?" asked Olivia...

We began kissing passionately again.....

Olivia eased herself down on my waiting penis and began to move up and down....

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh lawd girlllllllllll!" I moaned...

"Ouuuuu boyyyyy.....ouuuuuuu" she moaned...

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... OLIVIA......ouuuuuuuuuu, more, more... ohhhhhh..."I moaned...

"YES BABY YES...CALL MY NAME.....ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...CALL MY NAME!!You can have all you want!!"she cooed softly.

"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmph..YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!" I grunted...

Another hour and a half went by...


VI-

The next morning...Beverly was there gathering the paperwork and the forms for Sersi's deposition at the airport....

She was sipping coffee...Josie was helping her ...

"Thanks Josie..." said Beverly..

"No prob...Here comes your Auntie and Donnie Ray." said Josie..

"Look at my early bird.." said Olivia, kissing Beverly on the cheek...

"We are all ready to go Auntay.... I imagine we can leave here around 3:00 pm..." said Beverly...

"Guess who called me last night?"  asked Olivia...

"Oh My God...Judge Crawford??" asked Beverly...

"Oh God...No!" said Olivia,laughing..

"Bum Ass Elwood ,crying about whoever broke his heart?   I wish I knew who she was...I'd buy her a drink." laughed Beverly...

"It wasn't him...but speaking of Elwood...I saw him recently in Josies...

He was so plastered they had to call a cab for him...Me, Honey Brown and Gus had to take him to the cab and put him in...Whoever broke his heart did a number on him..."I laughed..

"I'm kind of jealous...He didn't carry on like that when he and I broke up....but anyway...it was Ennis...Ennis Deadwyler..." said Olivia..

"Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!  Another country heard from....I see his commercials on Television..."Need Help? Call A Lawyer?" laughed Beverly..

"What is he? One of those  uh Slip and Fall type Lawyers..the kind that advertises on late night TV?" I asked..

"He is now...but once upon a time..he was a big time corporate lawyer... He worked for Dewey , Cheatum and Howe and Associates.After he left the Public Defender's office...He married a waitress...A pretty little thing...It was a rocky marriage though...He was desperately in love with her, obsessed with her...but he suspected she was stepping out on him...They had some pretty bad public rows....I witnessed a couple..Then one day...She went missing..."said Olivia.

"Missing?" I said.

"Yeah, didn't take any clothes..no money, no nothing...Walked out of the house one morning and was never seen again....They found her car in the airport, a year later!!!....Keys in the ignition...Drivers license on the front seat...Purse too..Credit cards, Debit card....$560.00 in cash..."said Olivia..

"She's dead! You know that right?" I said.

"Or she created a new identity for herself...We didn't know...Police checked her financials...No movement...Nobody saw her...Nobody heard from her..She just vanished, seemingly into thin air..Naturally Ennis being the husband was the number one suspect...He had her insured for 300K.."said Olivia.

"I remember, You repped him three times.."said Beverly...

"The police dug up his basement, used cadaver dogs....and luminol...Never found anything!!!I wouldn't allow him to submit a DNA sample because they never charged him...."said Olivia..

"So yesterday they found his wife's remains....In a barrel that was floating in the river.."I said..

"Oh wowwww, so now we know...She was murdered.. She has been dead all this time.."said Bev...

"That's not all...She's was three months pregnant at the time of death and Ennis told me he doesn't know if it was his or not!!!"said Olivia..

"NOW THAT'S A CALL WORTH INTERRUPTING SEX FOR!!"said Beverly...

"Ohh he didn't interrupt nothing.." I said..smiling slyly...

Beverly looked at me and smiled sheepishly....

"Well alrighty then!" she said..

Josie cracked up....

"Mister A. Got his.." she laughed...

Olivia blushed something crazy....

"Yes he did!!  But uh...Well....Well...Well anyway...He wants us to represent him....He's certain the police are going to jack him up once again...And take a gander who the case detective was?" asked Olivia..

"Please tell me it wasn't Lt. Tragg!!" I said..

"He was Detective Tragg then...That was the beginning of our relationship as it may be...

Just as big a condescending jerk then as he is now!"said Olivia..

"I was talking to Duke Baylor a few nights ago in Josie's..

Tragg is now the Lieutenant over at Records....He arrested that Minister...You remember, while they were looking for that Serial Killer...The minister threatened to sue the city, until several young ladies came forth with information on him...Still between that and the Eddie Queen case , the city had had enough...They promoted Danny Ho to Lieutenant over in Robbery -Homicide and sent Lt. Tragg to another unit..Records...That's the end of the world for a detective...He's buried in the basement...We may not have to worry about him." I said.

"We can only hope and pray." said Beverly.
