Olivia's POV
I felt Maxwell nudge me forward, "Go on, don't keep the woman waiting."
My legs wobbled as I made my way to the stage. Then I remembered the dream I had this morning - about wigs falling off in front of a large crowd - and my fear intensified.
Keep your cool, Olivia. Don't blow your cover in front of all these people, you'll get served for fraud immediately.
"Alright, Mr. Hopton, you're going to cross-examine me. I'll be playing the role of a witness who claims to have seen a car accident. Your job is to discredit my testimony. The accident allegedly happened at 3 PM on a Tuesday in downtown traffic."
All eyes watched me as I stood on the stage. Judge Lance was standing behind a podium, looking exactly like what she was - a witness who was about to destroy me.
"Whenever you're ready," she said with a slight smile.
I cleared my throat. Think, Olivia. This is your domain.
"Um... ma'am... where exactly were you when you witnessed this accident?"
