“About your first question.” Oscar looked into his eyes. He didn’t seem to flinch. Instead, he looked a bit
more aggressive, “As Dore just said, he had ever engaged in business with Cooper Group for twice
before, while the one in charge of which at that time appeared to be Maxwell. Thus, they had privately
met in restaurants for a few times. And there were a lot of witnesses inside the company. If you need
testimony, I can have anyone of them present in the court.”
“About your second question, the reason why Dore was willing to take Maxwell’s command was that he
was in badly need for money. And Maxwell had clear knowledge of that. Dore had been addictive to
gambling, for which he owed a heavy debt of usury. If he failed to pay the debt in time, the usurer was
gonna abuse violence against him. That was why Dore was willing to take the risk. I have evidence to
prove that he owed a debt of usury, coupled with a few photos that he gambled at the Oasis Casino.”
“About your third question, it’s true that there was no feud between Dore and the defendant. However,
there was someone else having feud with the defendant. And that was the culprit who took advantage
of Dore to frame up the defendant. As for the reason why Dore was willing to take the risk of
imprisonment, the answer was simple-he lost all his money in gambling so he was left no alternative for
the sake of money.”
“About your last question, you asked for testimony, right? Maxwell himself can provide testimony. It only
took half an hour to reach his residence from the court by car. I have sent my men to wait at his
residence this morning. I am sure he’s now at home. Your Honor, may I suggest that we should have
Maxwell here to question?”
Oscar’s voice sounded confident and firm.
His confidence revealed on his face started to convince some of the people.
Meanwhile, Charles turned lividly awkward.
He thought he had got everything well-prepared. How could Oscar mange to get so much evidence?
What was more, he managed to get it in such a short period of time.
Was it because Oscar and Hannah were brilliant enough to notice the key point?
Whatever, Charles had no idea how they made it.
Actually, he was just unwilling to admit that they were both more brilliant than him.
After a discussion between the judge and the jury, the judge confirmed, “Your suggestion has been
approved. Maxwell shall present himself in the court. Now the proceeding shall adjourn for half an
hour.”
Then the judge hammered down his gavel to confirm.
After that, the judge left, followed by the jury.

The air became a bit noisier.
Before Oscar returned to his seat, he turned to look at Hannah.
Hannah seemed to have expected that. So she had been fixing her eyes on him.
O
Error
After a few seconds of eye contact. Hannah thumbed up to him from the bottom of her heart.
She felt like he had already outperformed a professional lawyer like Jesse.
At this moment, Jesse looked livid. He never expected that Oscar could actually turn the table when
facing such a case with well-prepared evidence and testimony.
Once it was known among all lawyers, he would be greatly humiliated.
What was worse, he could see Oscar smiling complacently nearby.
“Hey, Oscar does look enchanting when smiling.” Susan suddenly whispered to Hannah.
Not until then did Hannah collect herself.
With her eyes slightly closed, she tried to control her heartbeat.
Then she suddenly stood up.
“Hannah, where are you going?” Susan looked confused.
The most exciting part hadn’t started yet. Why was she leaving? “Theodore, come with me.” While
leaving, she said to him.
Susan looked at them, even more confused.
‘Is she gonna cheat on Oscar? Hell no! Even if she wants, Theodore won’t have the guts.”
Theodore hurried to follow Hannah out of the court.
Before they were about to step out of the door, Hannah suddenly stopped.
Seeing Hannah leaving, Jimmy also followed over.
“Uncle Roger, are you gonna leave before the case is settled?” it turned out that Hannah was trying to
stop Roger from leaving.
A moment ago when she got enchanted by the eye contact with Oscar, she almost failed to notice that
Roger was about to leave.
Of course she gotta stop him.
“It’s none of your business! Get out of the way!” Roger turned livid.
“Hey, Uncle Roger, what are you mad about? Are you being guilty?”
“Stop talking nonsense! Get out of my way!” obviously, Roger was anxious to leave.
He knew once Maxwell was questioned in the court, he would be likely to turn him in.
Now he had to seize the chance to run away from Northfield.
“Uncle Roger, outside the court there are a bunch of journalists. Are you gonna leave

grandma alone? Aren’t you afraid to be accused of being unfilial?”
“Are you trying to mess up with me?” Roger gritted his teeth out of madness.
However, he dared not shout out in public. So he had to hold back his burning anger.
“Uncle Roger, it’s for your own good. Please return to your seat.”
“How dare you! Fuck off…”
However, before he could push Hannah, Theodore suddenly grabbed his hand.
Then he heavily hardened his grip, for which Roger’s wrist started cracking.
Before Roger yelled out of pain, Hannah gagged his mouth.
Thus, the public didn’t notice that.
She simply whispered to Roger threateningly, “Uncle Roger, you’d better return to your seat before the
repulsive Theodore loses his mind.”
Roger responded with a fearful glare.
Then Hannah let go of him.
So did Theodore.
Simply glaring at them, Roger knew that he couldn’t run away.
Gritting his teeth, he returned to the seat regardless of the pain on his wrist.
Watching him walking back, Hannah said something to Jimmy.
Jimmy nodded respectfully. Then he sat down next to Roger. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Roger glared at him.
Though he temporarily compromised, he must be planning to leave.
However, never did he expect that Hannah asked Jimmy to sit down next to him, which left
him no chance to leave.
Actually, never had he told Lorie about his conspiracy with Maxwell. So Lorie knew nothing about it.
Nor had she expected that it was both Roger and Maxwell who had been conspiring.
all these.
Thus, Roger had never planned to leave, nor dared he tell Lorie the truth so that he could.
leave with her.
Roger was burning with anxiety.
Hannah somehow felt amazed when noticing his anxiety.
Whenever she thought about what Roger and his offspring had done to ruin her family in her previous
life, she felt like skinning them alive by telling the world about all his scanda
