“How can I go home? I want to sue my son-in-law. I’ve been to several law firms. When they heard that I’m going to sue the Day family, they dared not to receive me at all.” As she spoke, the woman started shedding tears again.
Armand still kept calm. He picked up the glass of water and handed it to her. “Please have some water. Take it easy.”
Theresa didn’t know much about City B, so she whispered in Armand’s ear, “Is the Day family a famous one?”
Otherwise, how could no lawyer be willing to represent her?
Armand whispered to answer, “An influential family.”
There were a lot of wealthy families in City B.
So were powerful ones.
There were also wealthy and powerful ones.
The woman’s eyes were reddish and swollen. Probably she had cried for a long time. Obviously, it was indeed a difficulty for her.
She took over the water glass from Armand’s hands, trembling. She gulped it down in one go. Since she had been weeping for a long time, she was quite thirsty.
Armand asked the receptionist to get her another glass of water. The woman immediately said, “No, thanks. I’m fine now.”
The receptionist still got a glass of water for her.
Finally, the woman calmed down and said, “My daughter died unjustly...”
Armand rubbed between his eyebrows. He could tell that the woman became excited again.
Sure enough, she shed tears again.
...
After a while.
The woman started speaking. Although she stopped from time to time, she told them the details. Her daughter had married into an influential family and given birth to a son. However, her son-in-law cheated on her daughter. He asked his son to call his mistress Mom.
The woman’s daughter didn’t accept and nor did she agree to divorce. 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 wanted her son.
Her son was the later generation of the Day family, so they were not willing to give him to her.
The woman’s daughter was so reluctant. She couldn’t accept that her son would call another woman Mom. When she was extremely excited, she jumped off from the house left by her ex-husband with her son in her arms.
The mother and the son jumped from more than the twentieth floor, both beyond recognition.
The Day family was quite angry about it. They didn’t care if the woman’s daughter died, but she died with her son...
The woman couldn’t accept the fact that her daughter was forced to commit suicide by the Day family, so she wanted to sue her ex-son-in-law.
Upon hearing her words, Theresa was frightened. Her mood became quite bad.
Armand asked her to go to his office, but she refused.
“When they heard that I’m going to sue the Day family, they dared not to take the case at all. You...”
Armand said, “Do you have any evidence to prove your son-in-law cheated on your daughter when they were still married?”
The woman said excitedly, “My daughter has seen them personally...”
Armand interrupted her, “I meant the solid evidence. Your daughter is dead, so she can’t be any evidence. Besides, she jumped off from the building by herself. If you don’t have solid evidence, no one dares to represent you in this lawsuit. The Day family is rich and powerful. Besides, there wouldn’t be any lawsuit if there was no evidence. Please think if your daughter used to have any solid evidence when she was still alive.”
