You're My Little Secret 3
fight it out. But let me caution you before you decide. Taking this to
trial can end up costing you money that you may or may not have for absolutely
nothing. He will be granted the divorce eventually because you cannot force
someone to stay married to you. Either way it goes you will walk away with
nothing because six months is not long enough for you to even be eligible for
anything. From what I’ve read you two didn’t share a bank account or any other
community property items. This is not a family court, but you might want to go
to one to discuss child support when the baby comes unless both of you can work
it out on your own. I’ll give you both a few minutes to speak with your
attorneys before we proceed,” she said standing to her feet.
    “You
are a no good bastard. I can’t believe you’re doing this to me. After everything, I’ve done for your ungrateful ass.
It’ll be a cold day in hell before you see this baby,” I shouted at Dominic as
soon as the judge was gone. He just looked at me with that stupid ass smirk on
his face as if he didn’t have a care in the world.
    “I
guess we’ll be back in court then,” he smiled.
    “Fuck
you!” I screeched.
    “Nope,
you tried, but you can’t,” he chuckled.
    “Kennedi
calm down. Don’t start anything in here. It won’t be pretty if you do,” my
lawyer warned.
    “So
what do we do now?” I asked her calmly.
    “We
really don’t have a choice, but to sign. I told you that it was a possibility
that you could walk away with nothing. You guys haven’t been married long, and you’ve been separated for months. We’re
fighting a losing battle by taking this to trial. She basically just told you
that it would be a waste of money because you wouldn’t get anything. Just sign
and be done with it,” she urged.
    When
she pulled the papers from her briefcase and handed me a pen, my entire body
started to shake. I can’t believe that after only six months of marriage I’m
already signing divorce papers.
    “It’ll
be okay Kennedi,” my lawyer consoled me as tears rapidly ran down my face.
      My hand shook so bad that my handwriting didn’t
even look like my own. I slid the signed papers back to my attorney as I buried
my face in my palms and cried. My mother is going to be livid when she finds
out that I walked away with nothing. This meeting definitely didn’t go as I
wanted it to. Instead of possibly reconciling with my husband, I’d just signed
him over to be with Brooklyn permanently.

    “Man that
shit just don’t sound right to me,” I complained as David and I sat in our office. It’s been three days since
Kennedi and I went before the judge, and
I still have more questions than answers. I’m happy with the outcome, but I’m
still confused about a lot of things. Like how Kennedi was able to get her
hands on my business account bank statement. There’s no way that kind
information was accessible to her. That only meant one thing. Somebody is in my
business and giving up info that only employees could get their hands on.
Besides David, Scott and I, we have a total of twelve employees. None of them
gave me the impression of being a snake, but I wouldn’t put my life on it. I
thought about each and every man that works for us, and nobody stood out.
    “Man,
somebody is on some foul shit. You know she couldn’t have gotten her hands on
nothing like that without help. Ain’t no other way to explain it. Her crazy ass
probably paid somebody for some info,” David said.
    “I don’t
know, but it’s been on my mind for the past few days. I don’t need any snakes working with me or for me. Too many niggas
out here looking for work for me to play games with anybody up in here. I don’t
mind signing a pink slip, and I’m dead
ass serious about that,” I threatened.
    “I feel
you, but you can fire nobody if you don’t know who it is. It shouldn’t be too
hard to find out though.”
    “How can I
do that? It’s not like
