Chapter 1689
“However, I can’t raise my grandson. They were not willing to raise my grandson and said that they don’t have the obligation. I truly regret it very much. I’m only fifty-six now. There should still be people who want me if I were to become their nanny. After my divorce, I’ll find a place that includes meals and accommodation. I'll earn money for my grandson, support his education, and let him grow up to be a man. Am I at fault? I don’t want to be with you. I simply just don’t want to be with you anymore. Is that not alright?”
The staff was speechless. He was simply stunned.
“Please hurry up and process my divorce! ” said the old lady with unparalleled resolution. 1
The staff nodded. “Alright, Ma’am!”
He paused then looked at Neo, who was still stunned. “Sir, you were a teacher, right?”
Neo glared at the old lady, and then said to the staff, “That’s right! I am an educated person that is very easy to communicate with. Just tell me directly if you have anything to say! ”
“How much is your monthly salary, Sir?”
“It was six thousand dollars a month five years ago, and I had an increment later on. Now, my pension is seven thousand two hundred dollars each month.”
“It’s like this, Sir. For your house and other properties that were acquired before the marriage, this old lady will not be able to take any of it away. However, as for the ten years of your salary since the day you married this old lady, if the first five years was six thousand dollars a month, then it would be three hundred and sixty thousand dollars in the five years. If the five years is seven thousand two hundred a month, then it would be eighty-six thousand four hundred dollars a year. That’s four hundred and thirty-two thousand dollars in five years. In total, that’s seven hundred and ninety-two thousand dollars. In this seven hundred and ninety-six thousand four hundred, this old lady has half of it. Sir, if you were to get divorced, then you have to pay this ma’am three hundred and ninety-eight thousand two hundred dollars for her pension.” The staff looked at Neo without any expression at all.
Neo was stunned back then, and could not say anything for a long while.
“Sir, you have to three give this ma’am three hundred and ninety-eight thousand two hundred dollars. After rounding up, it's four hundred thousand dollars."
Four hundred thousand dollars.
Neo was instantly annoyed. “By what virtue! This is my salary! ”
“By the virtue of her being your wife! ” the staff said.
“I object!”
The staff continued calmly. “You can take it to court. However, I will tell you this first, you should pay this ma’am four hundred thousand dollars and not a single penny less. If you’ve lost the lawsuit, you’ll be paying the legal fees.”
Neo was speechless. He was so pissed off that he almost fainted.
The old lady, on the other hand, looked at the staff with a grateful expression. “ Young man, you...are an understanding person. Thank you, young man.”
