Plot

edit

Gbenga is a charming entrepreneur, running a very profitable tech company, and is the defendant in a lawsuit filed by Dara a computer engineer, whose talent helped Gbenga's company acquire the height it's reached. The colleagues were lovers whose relationship ended when Gbenga discovered his wife was pregnant with their supposed-to-be first child. Her lawsuit seeks compensation for those accounts, and Dara sues Gbenga for coercing her into sex (which counts as rape).
