Unforgettable Love - Page 57/89


Her eyes filled with tears as she said, “Just tell me you’re going to win on Wednesday.”

“I promise you, Sierra. I’m going to win.”

Wrapping her arms around my waist, Sierra buried her face into my chest as I held onto her and took us back to the dock.

Sitting in the library, I couldn’t stop staring at Sierra as she sat on the sofa with her legs pulled up underneath her. My father was asking her questions as if he was Robert’s lawyer. Had she ever cheated? Why she had a separate bank account the entire time she was married to Robert. Next time I saw her father, I was going to tell him that was the best piece of advice he could have ever given his daughter.

Chuckling, I pulled out Sierra’s trust fund paperwork I had noticed was missing after reading over it over a week ago. Trying to get the original law firm to send it over was like trying to pull a tooth. I began reading over it as my father and Sierra continued to talk. Sierra had gotten the trust fund when she turned thirty, which was after she had separated from Robert. His lawyer argued the trust fund should be considered part of the marital assets. Robert’s lawyers were also claiming half of the money Sierra used to buy her home in Hyde Park. I had hired a forensic accountant to track Sierra and Robert’s bank account. He had come back showing Robert has been slowly draining the account and putting it in an alternative account. Little did he know that account was still considered part of the marital assets. I couldn’t wait to see his face when we brought that little fact up at the trial. I would be able to convince the judge that, in fact, Sierra had only used her half of the marital assets. Actually used less than her half. No prenup was both a blessing and a curse through these proceedings that was for sure.

My father and Sierra were now talking about Sierra keeping her cool on the stand. She wasn’t to get upset or angry.

Standing up, Sierra stretched as my father walked over to me. “Aaron, Sierra and I are going to go grab a drink. Would you like anything?”

Shaking my head, I said, “Nah, I’ve only got a little left to read.”

Glancing up, I smiled as I saw Sierra take my father’s arm as they made their way out of the library.

Damn it, I want to finish this shit up so I could take her out to eat.

Wiping my eyes and slapping myself across my face to wake myself up, I started reading again.


My eyes widened as I read the next section. “Holy shit. I knew the missing documents had to have something in them. The shit was right here in front of the damn previous lawyer the whole time.”

My cell phone rang and I glanced down and saw it was Kyle Lenard calling. The private detective my father had hired to dig up more information on Robert.

“This is Aaron,” I said as I placed the trust fund documents back into the envelope.

“Mr. Walker, this is Kyle Lenard.”

“Hey, Kyle, tell me you got something for me,” I said as I sat back in my chair and pushed my hand through my hair and sighed.

Letting out a gruff laugh, Kyle said, “Your instincts were spot on, Mr. Walker. Lisa Blank was not the first person Dr. Jackson had an affair with.”

Smiling, I leaned forward. “Do tell.”

“I’m sitting here looking at two sworn statements by two different women who all have claimed to have had an affair with Robert while he was married to Sierra. All nurses at the hospital where Dr. Jackson worked before going into private practice.”

Shaking my head, I asked, “Kyle, how in the hell did you manage to track them down?”

“Wasn’t hard. All it takes is one person to start running their mouth and that was Robert’s tennis partner. I followed him to tennis four times and saw he played with the same guy. Another doctor. Turns out they went to medical school together and although he loves playing tennis with his buddy Robert, he can’t stomach the guy. Told me Robert was cheating on Sierra while they were both still in college even.”

Shaking my head, I let out a fuck from under my breath. “What an asshole,” I said as I stood up.

“Turns out the two nurses feel the same way and said once they found out he was married, they broke it off. One of them even looked Sierra up and was going to tell her, but was so embarrassed she had slept with a married man, she decided not to contact Sierra. They did both say they would be in the courtroom if you needed them to testify.”

Nodding my head, I looked down the hall for Sierra and my father. “Let’s have them wait outside the courtroom. The last thing I want is for Sierra to find out her dirtbag ex was having an affair with two nurses at his job.”
