Chapter 15 - The Court Trial

The courtroom was packed with nosy reporters,
eager to cover the scandal of the year.

looking pale and utterly hopeless.

swearing to tell the whole truth.

looking at the defendant with pure disgust.

holding the maid's daughter in her lap.
The little girl drew pictures on a paper,
oblivious to her father's downfall.
The prosecutor delivered a fiery argument,
demanding maximum punishment for the fraud.
