Third person POV

Lucy was up next to be questioned. Her trial was just the same as Harry's, just with her answers instead. They were slightly different and by the end of her time, she was fed up. The room was still stuffy and crowded with too many people who just want to go home. And this was only the first case. There is still another one to do. 

Lucy had spotted Danny walking late into the room after she had finished her turn. He looked distressed. He didn't look like the same Danny you saw judging the Voice. Had he heard the news of his daughter he never met? 

Julia stood up and took her place on the stand. Harry had gotten the best lawyer he could find. But from what he had seen so far, Julia's was better. He was annoying and makes everybody agitated. They want to smack him in the face to see if that smirk would disappear. 

"Good evening, Ms Days, my name is Bob." Harry's lawyer started off. He wore a black and white stripped suit with brown dance shoes that did not go. "I have a few questions to ask and if you would co-operate, it would do us all a favour."

Julia stood up straight, head up and hair grouped into a tight bun to show sophistication. "Why should I not do that? I am of course, under oath." She replied.

A game played by the coach, ran by the student. This is how Bob saw it. "What may be voiced, might not be the truth." Bob said, the edge of his lips curled upwards slightly. The same actioned was copied on Julia. 

"That's for me to know, and for you to not. I would appreciate it if you could ask me those questions now, please, nobody has all day." 

"What did you see in Lucy when you first took her?" Bob didn't wait to get straight to the point. There is no time left for breaks.

"I didn't take her." Julia said, bluntly. 

"Let me rephrase that then. Why, out of all the people in Britain, did you set your eyes on Miss Mai?" Bob leaned against the stand, looking laid-back and relaxed. 

"She had something. She had potential. And, it was never my choice she came to me for help. If she hadn't, she wouldn't have been in this mess. As for Harry, he was the same. I never expected him to be there." It was all true. If Lucy hadn't of gone off and had just listened to Mya, all this might not have happened. 

"According to my clients, they said you threatened to kidnap Daniel Howell and force rape on both him and Miss Mai. What do you have to say about that?" Bob gave a quick glance to Harry and Lucy back in the stand. They looked tired. They don't want to go through all of this again. Something bad is going to happen, they can feel it.

"It was a meer threat. I was only joking." Lucy could not believe it! That cow! How dare she say that after everything she put them through! 

"Joking or not, it is a serious matter. Moving onto the people you have taken before, what made you chose them? Especially those who could get you arrested." Bob is curious. But as the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat. 

"I didn't choose them, my boss did." After that answer, no one dared to move. This was an organisation. There were more people then just Julia doing this. 

Bob cleared his throat. "What is your boss's name? Remember, you have to tell, you are under oath."

"Harry knows him very well. Like family. Loves him like an Uncle." Julia said. And something clicked in Harry. Uncle. Like family. Uncle Si. He's done too much already to Harry by hurting Lucy and now he's done more! 

"Simon Cowell." Harry yelled out and gasps of astonishment echoed. "It's Simon." 

At last, it all links up. Simon must've told Julia about Lucy at the start. They have been working together to get at Lucy. Was the robbery planned as well? Is there a reason why they've targeted her?
