Some people were unwilling to accept this, asking, "Are we just going to let it go like this?"

"of course not."

Smith glanced at him and said slowly:

"Our previous plan was to make Eleanor actually make a mistake, and then we would attack him, but now it seems that this approach is no longer viable."

"In that case, we have no choice but to settle for second best and find someone to accuse Eleanor directly."

This is the only option available.

If strong evidence cannot be presented, the persuasiveness will ultimately be diminished.

But it doesn't matter.

As long as the voice is loud enough and the attitude is firm enough, it can always convince a large number of uninformed people to believe it.

Even if they can't ultimately bring down Eleanor.

That can also cause him a lot of trouble!

"Merryweather!"

Smith suddenly called out a name, and Congressman Meriwether quickly stepped forward.

"You're in charge of arranging this. Remember, you must do it wholeheartedly!"

He said, "You should be able to handle this kind of small matter, right?"

"I guarantee there won't be any problems!"

Meriwether is very confident.

This wasn't the first time he'd done something like this.

Things you're familiar with are always foolproof!

……

Soon, some news began to circulate in Washington.

At first, it was only in tabloids.

The Secret Lives of Young White House Advisors

Does Mr. Hopkins have a hidden past?

Then.

A larger newspaper published an interview.

A young woman claimed:

“I once believed that Mr. Hopkins was a gentleman, but some things that happened later made it impossible for me to remain silent.”

The article contains many noteworthy details.

For example, Eleanor's dissolute behavior in his youth included frequenting bars and maintaining inappropriate relationships with multiple women.

For example, he has some little-known quirks that are astonishing even when mentioned.

This newspaper quickly attracted some attention.

However, it didn't have much impact because it was just a rumor and there was no actual evidence.

Moreover, reports on celebrities' private lives are always focused on attracting attention, and even more sensational content is not uncommon.

Many people watch it and then move on, simply treating it as more fodder for conversation after dinner.

It did not spark a wider discussion.

But soon, the next day arrived.

Another newspaper published even bolder content.

Another woman has stepped forward.

A second woman appeared in the report; she was a White House staff member who declined to be named.

She claimed:

"Mr. Hopkins once gave me special attention, and I don't know if it was because of his power."

"But that makes me uneasy."

This immediately drew the attention of many people.

This is different from Eleanor's previous actions; this involves the White House!

However, before anyone could even begin to discuss it extensively...

The real bombshell is here.

A woman in her thirties was interviewed.

Holding a child who looked very much like Eleanor in her arms, she tearfully told reporters:

"I've waited for many years, and I don't want to hurt anyone."

"But my child should know who his father is!"

……

This caused an uproar throughout society!

The evidence is irrefutable! The proof is overwhelming!

Look at that child in the photo, he looks almost exactly like Elijah Hopkins!

This is solid evidence! It's undeniable proof!

In the morning at the coffee shop.

Several workers sat around a table.

"Hopkins? The guy who helped the president push through the banking bill?"

"That can't be, right?"

"That's impossible, it's already been published in the newspapers!"

"And look, this woman is holding a child."

Those who had initially supported Eleanor fell silent.

During the Great Depression, many ordinary people had complex attitudes toward Washington, D.C.

They hope the government will rescue them.

However, at the same time, one should not completely trust those important figures who wear suits and sit in offices.

They had thought Eleanor Hopkins would be different.

Now it seems I was wrong.

However, some people are angry.

Especially those who support the new policy.

"This is clearly a setup!"

A young worker slammed his fist on the table.

"They used to attack the banking bill, now they're attacking Hopkins. Some people just don't want the government to do anything!"

But even so.

When he spoke, his voice was still not as firm as before.

Because doubts have already arisen.

……

White House.

The President's Office.

Rosef sat in her wheelchair, holding the newspaper in her hand.

It's been a full five minutes since the last page was turned.

The room was very quiet.

Louise stood to the side, not in a hurry to speak.

She was curious to see how Rosef would react, because the child really did look a lot like Eleanor.

Black curly hair, two eyes, and a mouth.

Although a closer look reveals obvious differences, it's more than enough to fool Rosef.

How will she react?

Louise continued to observe with a spectator's mindset.

Xiao Fu must be very angry, right?

Louise thought to herself that although the white hamster herself might not realize it, her attitude toward Eleanor had always been different from that toward others.

This time, Eleanor suddenly revealed that she has a child.

Will Xiao Fu be so angry that she cries?

Louise waited a long time, and finally, Rosef raised her head.

"Call Eleanor here!"

she says.
