The President’s Mistake A Tale of Love and Regret novel Chapter 348

Maggie sat on the witness stand, looking frail.

The case she had previously filed against Abigail for her mother's murder would be tried separately. Today was Frey’s special hearing.

Maggie had lost weight rapidly in just a few days, her sleepless nights evident in the severe dark circles under her eyes.

She glanced nervously at Frey, who ignored her. She had come too far to turn back now.

Likely, the Hill family had caused trouble for her recently, and she had also offended Nathaniel, leaving her unprotected and paying the price.

The iron door opened, and the prison guards escorted the defendant, Abigail, into the courtroom.

The jury murmured, and the judge struck his gavel to restore order.

Frey looked steadily at Abigail. In less than two months, the once polished girl from the upper class now appeared decades older, her hair cut short and messy.

Her face was pale, and her expression fierce upon seeing Frey. If not for the guards, she might have attacked her.

Frey regarded her coldly. She had nearly died in prison and had summoned immense courage to survive.

Abigail couldn't handle just a few days of detention? Frey smiled faintly, infuriating Abigail, who tried to lunge at her but was restrained by the guards.

Abigail's father, Michael, also attended. Frey sensed he seemed absent-minded and even fearful of Abigail.

Frey was shocked that Abigail would feign mental illness. Forced by Abigail's relentless torment, Frey had almost become a real mental patient herself.

Was there any justice in the world?

Abigail looked at Frey provocatively.

With the Gomez family defeated, why should Frey challenge the Hill family?

Abigail held Michael’s darkest secrets, ensuring he wouldn't let her die. She had threatened that if she were to die or disappear, the incriminating videos would be released, dragging everyone down with her.

The defendant's lawyer's mental illness assessment sparked low discussions among the jury. The judge struck the gavel hard, silencing the courtroom.
