Chapter 789: Chapter 789



“How can I go home? I want to sue my son-in-law. I’ve been to several law firms. When they found out that I’m going to sue the Day Family, they didn’t dare to receive me.” As she spoke, the woman began to shed tears again.

Armand remained calm. He took the glass of water and handed it to her.

“Please take some water. Take it easy.”

Theresa didn’t know much about B-town, so she whispered in Armand’s ear, “Is the Day Family famous?”

If not, how is it possible that no lawyer is willing to represent them?

Armand whispered in reply, “An influential family.” There were many wealthy families in B-town.

There were also powerful ones.

There were also rich and powerful ones.

The woman’s eyes were red and puffy. She had probably cried for a long time. Obviously, it was a hardship for her.

She took the glass of water from Armand’s hands, trembling. She gulped it down in one gulp. As she had been crying for a long time, she was very thirsty.

Armand asked the receptionist to bring him another glass of water. The woman immediately said, “No, thank you. I’m fine now.”

Still, the receptionist brought her a glass of water.

Finally, the woman calmed down and said, “My daughter died unjustly…”.

Armand rubbed his brow. He noticed that the woman was getting emotional again.

Indeed, she was shedding tears again.

gⱯlnσν𝓮𝓁s﹒𝓬𝗈𝗺, the heart of fiction …

After a while.

The woman began to speak. Although she paused from time to time, she told them the details. Her daughter had married into an influential family and had a son. However, her son-in-law cheated on her daughter. He asked his son to call his mistress his mother.

The woman’s daughter did not agree and did not accept the divorce either. However, the Day Family forced her to divorce, giving her a house and more than two million as compensation. The woman’s daughter was reluctant. She loved her son.

Her son was from the last generation of the Day Family, so they were unwilling to give him to her.

The woman’s daughter was very reluctant. She could not accept her son calling another woman mom. Very excited, she jumped out of the house left by her ex-husband with her son in her arms.

Mother and son jumped from over a twentieth floor, both unrecognizable.

The Day Family was pretty angry about it. They didn’t care that the woman’s daughter died, but she died with her son?

The woman could not accept the fact that her daughter was forced to commit suicide by the Day Family, so she wanted to sue her former son-in-law.

Hearing his words, Theresa became frightened. Her mood became quite bad.

Armand asked her to come to his office, but she refused.

“When they found out that I was going to sue the Day Family, they dared not to take the case. You…”

Armand said, “Do you have any evidence to prove that your son-in-law cheated on your daughter while they were still married?”

The woman said excitedly, “My daughter has seen them personally…”.

Armand interrupted her, “I mean solid evidence. Your daughter is dead, so it can’t be any proof. Besides, she jumped out of the building by herself. If you don’t have solid evidence, no one dares to represent you in this trial. The Day Family is rich and powerful. Besides, there would be no lawsuit if there was no evidence. Please think about whether your daughter had any solid proof when she was alive.”

The woman was quite excited. “She’s going to marry her lover – isn’t that proof?”

Armand said, “You said she is a mistress, but you need proof to prove it. If not, you can be sued for slander.”

The woman was instantly struck dumb.

Theresa nudged Armand, hinting for him to be gentle and not scare the woman.

“So, what should I do?” As she spoke, the woman began to cry again.

Armand said, “You can go home first and think about whether your daughter has left you something or said something to you before. When you have sorted it all out, you can come to me again.”

The woman didn’t believe him, “Do you want…. You mean you’ll be my lawyer?” She was very excited and pulled a card from the band of her purse. “I just need justice for my daughter. Here’s three million on this card. I can give it all to you.”

Her daughter received more than two million for the divorce, plus her and her husband’s savings. Now she wanted nothing more than justice for her daughter. She couldn’t let her daughter die like this.

Armand handed her back the card and said, “You should go home and think about whether you really want to file a lawsuit to sue them.”

“You mean you won’t be my lawyer?” The woman looked down immediately.

Armand did not respond. He got up and asked the receptionist to escort the woman out.

Theresa was also puzzled. She asked, “Are you afraid of getting in trouble?”

Armand said, “Others dared not to represent her because she is not a good case. It will be easy to induce criticism on themselves.”

Theresa was very sympathetic to that woman.

She said, “Now the network is quite advanced. It should be a news story in City B. Why haven’t I seen it on the news before?”

Armand explained, “It must have been suppressed.”

Theresa let out a sigh. “The poor things could hardly survive, could they?”

Armand gave her a look. “Why do you think he’s poor? She can offer three million.”

“Wasn’t it for the divorce?” said Theresa.

Armand walked over, reaching to hug her. “The woman’s son-in-law was heartless, but he didn’t throw his ex-wife out without giving her anything. He gave her a house and some money, but he was too ruthless. The woman’s daughter went to an extreme. When she committed suicide, she also wanted to take her son’s life. He was also quite selfish.”

Theresa also thought the woman had gone too far, as she died with the child. Although Theresa could not give birth now, she used to be pregnant. She knew how important a child was to the mother.

The woman’s daughter could be so cold-hearted as to let her child die. Theresa believed she must have been forced to an extreme.

“You’d better pursue this case. Even if you don’t want to represent her, I want to know more details about her.”

Armand pinched her nose. “I didn’t know you were into gossip, too.”

Theresa thought for a while. “It’s not gossip.”

Armand agreed. It wouldn’t be too late if he made the decision after he knew all the details.

“You must do some good deeds. As a result of karma, we could probably make it next time,” Theresa said in a soft tone.

Armand felt very scared. If the words had been spoken by Elizabeth, it would seem normal to him. But, he heard it from Theresa, so he couldn’t accept it at all. “Are you superstitious too?”

Only Elizabeth could unsettle him so much.

Armand was extremely nervous. “We didn’t make it not because we didn’t do any good deeds or because of karma. We’ve never done anything guilty. It’s destined. The baby is not destined to show up now, so we can’t have it no matter what we do.”
