348–I Thought It Would Be A Good News
Graham:
“I don’t understand how much you two are going to drink,” Kaylee remarked as she stepped into my office, complaining about me and Elgin celebrating for what was probably the last ten hours.
Ever since we were informed that the warriors had summoned the monster on the mountain top, we had been extremely happy.
We had done a great job ruining their night. I was pretty sure Yuvonne and Ron did not get married. That felt like a win for us.
And then there was the court date coming up. If they did not get married, Yuvonne would show up looking like a rogue, and a rogue’s statement would never be taken seriously.
“Come here,” I told her, holding her hand and pulling her closer. Kaylee glanced shyly at Elgin and then back at
“You smell like alcohol,” she complained softly.
“Yeah, but baby, come on. Give me a little kiss,” I requested, puckering my lips toward her.
She rolled her eyes dramatically, then leaned down and gave me a gentle kiss on the lips.
“Now serve me a drink,” I asked.
Once again, she sighed, rolled her eyes, and then, with her delicate hands, poured a drink for me and handed it
over.
“See, this is what a good wife is. Not someone who drags you out to nowhere and makes you a laughingstock,” I remarked, commenting on Madeline and how, because of her, Baxter was now just a rogue.
“Okay, can we not talk about them every minute we get a chance?” Kaylee requested.
I could tell she was done with us talking about Madeline and Baxter nonstop.
“Okay, done. We will not. Besides, we won the case,” I told her as I wrapped my arms around her back and kissed her pregnant stomach.
“Really? But Yuvonne has not come to give a statement yet?” my maid asked, her voice innocent and unsure.
“Well, she will not be coming anyway, so there’s that,” I replied.
She frowned, looking confused. At the same time, my phone started ringing with calls from my warrior. He was about to tell me what had happened, and I was eager to hear everything.
“Babe, you go and rest. Elgin and I will talk with some of the warriors now,” I told her.
I tried to stand, feeling tired, but we had been drinking all night, and I was still unsteady so I sat down again.
“Okay, fine, but please don’t drink too much, okay? No more drinks,” she warned me before giving Elgin a nod in greeting and leaving the room.

“So who is trying to speak with us?” Elgin asked, so drunk he could barely keep his eyes open. “We celebrated a lot last night,” I said.
Just thinking about Ron running around trying to save his bride in that big gown made me laugh.
We all knew Yuvonne was not very powerful. She would not have been able to run around in something that heavy.
“A warrior came to give us information about what went down last night,” I told him.
Even though he had looked like he might pass out moments earlier, he was wide awake now.
“Wait, really? That would be so good. I thought we would never get to know,” he replied, looking excited to hear about the ruined wedding.
Lately, none of the weddings around us seemed to end well.
“Yeah. He is going to come in, and while he tells us what he did, we will have one last drink. Then you can sleep in the guest room. You should not stay up. We deserve some rest,” I told Elgin, smirking.
He had already poured himself a drink, and I was ready too.
A warrior walked in with a smile on his face. Of course, it had been a success, and we were all pleased.
“So start talking,” I told the warrior, sliding a glass of wine toward him.
There was a large table to the side with my laptop and several case files spread across it.
