Miss President wants to talk to you

Neither of those is correct.

Eleanor's entire logical chain is complete, clear, and reasonable, and no one can criticize it.

However, even at this point, Bell still wanted to struggle.

"Your Honor!"

He said, "Even if Hopkins did such a thing, it doesn't prove that everyone here is here to accuse him for that reason!"

"What if among these people there are really poor women who were abandoned by Hopkins?"

"What if his crimes are true?"

Bell was very confident, after all, at least three of these women genuinely wanted to accuse Eleanor.

Because those were actors hired by the Southern faction, as has already been stated.

And there are probably many more people like this in the future!

If they can be given a voice, the entire atmosphere at the scene could potentially be turned around!

Bale really can't afford to lose!

His life and fortune are completely tied to the Southern faction. If he loses the case, Hopkins' retaliation will surely be like a storm.

Everyone knows how petty this person is.

"I propose that the remaining witnesses be allowed to come up and testify!"

Bell was full of confidence.

He believed that the Southern faction wouldn't betray him.

Among the witnesses who come after, there will surely be even better actors who are as excellent as the three who came before.

At that point, the whole situation will be turned around!

Chapter 98: To catch a thief, you must first catch the king.

"The plaintiff calls the next witness, Ms. Elizatna."

A woman holding a child stood up.

As usual, the clerk made her take an oath.

Eliza raised her right hand.

"I promise."

She sat down in the witness stand.

Having learned from his previous experience, Bell was now exceptionally cautious.

"Ms. Turner, do you know Mr. Hopkins?"

"know."

Eliza answered very decisively.

Bell breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but smile.

Finally, a normal person has arrived. It seems that Sura's situation was just an isolated case.

Where did you meet him?

"On the radio."

"..."

Bell's smile vanished.

"I mean, have you seen Mr. Hopkins in person?"

"I've met you."

Oh?

Bell was overjoyed and quickly asked, "When?"

"Today."

Eliza turned to the defendant's dock. "Isn't Mr. Hopkins sitting right there?"

Bell: "..."

Can you please stop taking such long breaths when you speak?

“Well then, Ms. Turner.”

Bell forcibly suppressed his temper. "Why did you claim to the plaintiff that your child is Mr. Hopkins'?"

“Because he made me say that,”

Eliza answered without hesitation.

“If I don’t do this, I won’t receive any welfare benefits at all.”

Eliza took a letter from her pocket. "Look, this is a letter from Mr. Hopkins. It tells me what to say."

There's still a letter?

The court clerk stepped forward, took the letter, and handed it to the judge.

After carefully reading the contents, the judge instructed the court clerk to give the letter to both lawyers for confirmation.

After Bell finished checking the letters, his previously anxious heart finally died.

This letter is genuine.

The letter was sent more than a month ago.

It not only bears Eleanor's signature but also the seal of the White House office.

This means that the White House has an official record of this matter, and there is absolutely no possibility of it being fabricated.

Unless, Eleanor had anticipated that someone would use a sex scandal to smear him and had started preparing long ago.

Otherwise, Bell would have no choice but to admit it.

Eleanor is a true chosen one of the Virgin Mary.

The court proceedings continue.

"Please continue your questioning, plaintiff," the judge urged.

Bell stood there, unsure of what else he could ask.

Continuing to inquire further would only be to clear Eleanor's name.

"The plaintiff has finished questioning."

He sighed and turned to go back to his seat.

At that moment, Truman, who was in the defendant's seat, stood up.

"The defendant needs to be cross-examined!"

Bell turned around and saw Truman's aggressive gaze.

Previously, Eleanor's side had been on the defensive, and even Truman was extremely pessimistic about the trial's outcome.

Now that things have finally turned around, it's time to kick a man when he's down.

How could she possibly let it go?

The judge naturally granted the request, as this is standard procedure.

Truman walked to the witness stand.

"Ms. Eliza."

Unlike Bell, Truman did not rush to ask for more details.

On the contrary, it is full of humanistic care.

Have your family's difficulties been resolved now?

"Not yet, but it's much better now."

Eliza lowered her head. "Thanks to Mr. Hopkins, our family got through the most difficult time."

"Although my husband hasn't found a job yet, at least we don't have to be so desperate anymore."

Truman comforted her, "Don't worry, with President Rosef and her New Deal, we will definitely overcome the Great Depression."

Then, Truman changed the subject.

“Ms. Eliza, perfect timing, Mr. Hopkins is right here now.”

Is there anything you want to say to him?

Upon hearing this, Eliza turned to face Elino.

She held the child and suddenly bowed deeply.

"Thank you, Mr. Hopkins."

Eliza's voice choked with emotion, "Your act of kindness saved my family! God bless you!"

"I don't know why those women made those accusations against you. Maybe Mammon blinded them."

"I really feel sorry for you!"

"The charges you are facing now are because we are suffering!"

Upon hearing this, many women holding children in the waiting area burst into tears.

Clearly, they all shared the same predicament as Eliza.

Meanwhile, those in the audience were also deeply moved.

Eliza's words were incredibly impactful for these ordinary religious people.

The first plaintiff, Mary Allen, repeatedly emphasized this point when accusing Eleanor.
