Chapter 51

The atmosphere in the courtroom was very tense, as the two experienced lawyers had been busy trying to defend their clients with every possible argument they could come up with.

 

Mr. George has presented almost five meaningful pieces of evidence that prove that Cynthia was guilty, but Mr. Samson kept on rendering the whole argument useless.

 

If there was one thing he was good at, it was debating.

 

He had the ability to render any evidence useless with just one argument; he knew how to twist his arguments in order to convince.

 

Mr. George, on the other hand, was someone who liked convincing with evidence because, according to him, an argument was useless without evidence. Everyone can argue, but not everyone is capable of digging out evidence.

 

After an hour-long heated trial, the judge dismissed the court and asked everyone to return after an hour-long break for the pronouncement of the final verdict.
