Chapter 1
Is there anything more difficult in the world than having your wife cheat on you?
Yes, that is hiring a lawyer to sue, and asking the ex-girlfriend to do it.
…
Imperial Capital, Shengjia Law Firm.
I sat in the conference room, feeling exhausted.
I never thought that I would need to file for divorce after only one year of marriage.
Just as I was distracted, the door of the conference room was pushed open and a beautiful and graceful figure walked in.
"Sorry, Mr. Song, I'm late."
The woman sat down in front of me, her voice cold.
"Mr. Song, I am your attorney this time, Meng Xihan."
I looked at the elegant and confident woman in a suit and high heels in front of me, and I felt like a bolt of lightning had struck me.
The divorce lawyer I hired at a high price was my ex-girlfriend. How could such a ridiculous thing happen to me?
I tried to remain calm. "Hello."
Meng Xihan looked at the file in his hand. "Two months ago, you caught your wife Xie Ying cheating on you and filmed the scene."
"You now suspect she's transferring property, and you're asking for her to leave the house. Mr. Song, do you have anything else to add?"
Her calm look was like a bucket of ice water poured over my head.
I felt a little bitter in my heart, but I didn't dare to show it. I could only shake my head and said, "No."
Meng Xihan placed the materials on the table in a businesslike tone.
"Secretly filmed videos cannot be used as evidence, but they can support a divorce. However, you may not be able to get the amount you requested."
I frowned. "I've learned in advance that the party at fault can be kicked out of the house."
Not only did Xie Ying cheat on me, but now she wants to transfer the property and kick me out of the house. That depends on whether I agree or not.
Meng Xihan raised his eyelids and glanced at me coldly.
"You were also at fault at the time, why didn't you leave the house?"
All my words got stuck in my throat.
Meng Xihan and I were once the couple that everyone envied. We were even planning to get our marriage certificate the day before we broke up.
But on the eve of the breakup, Meng Xihan did not return home all night and only left a cold message.
Above is a photo of me and another woman holding hands while touring Wuzhen, along with a sentence:
【Let’s break up. I hate people who are unfaithful in relationships the most】
I'm not a person who likes to get entangled.
After making 18 phone calls to Meng Xihan, I packed up all my things and disappeared from Meng Xihan's world.
I looked at Meng Xihan and spoke directly.
"Lawyer Meng, we are discussing my divorce request now. Please don't mix in personal feelings."
Meng Xihan's face turned cold instantly, she pursed her red lips, and turned her gaze back to the file.
"Think about whether there is anything that is beneficial to you. There is no point in suing now."
I hesitated for two seconds and said, "She's pregnant, does that count?"
Meng Xihan's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he stared at me with a frown.
"Then you have absolutely no chance of winning, and you won't even need a lawyer. You can't get a divorce during pregnancy."
Her expression was cold, as if she was questioning why I came to waste everyone's time.
I felt uneasy when she stared at me and closed my eyes in embarrassment.
"But that child was born through test tube..."
Meng Xihan asked: "Anything else?"
"There is still unfavorable evidence..."
My thoughts drifted to a month ago.
"I had a one-night stand, and she might have found out..."
The conference room was as quiet as a tomb.
One second... two seconds...
Meng Xihan suddenly sneered: "You really haven't changed at all, you're still the same as before."
I lowered my eyes, wishing I could stare a hole in the floor.
Meng Xihan has always had a sharp tongue, and it has become even worse since he became a lawyer. He almost said clearly that "a dog will always eat shit".
Her sarcastic look made my scalp tingle.
Fortunately, Meng Xihan didn't continue his vicious remarks, but instead asked, "Does your wife have any evidence of the one-night stand?"
I shook my head again: "I don't know."
Suddenly, a thunder sounded outside the window. I couldn't help but tremble and my face turned pale in an instant.
Because of childhood trauma, I have always been afraid of thunder.
After I calmed down, Meng Xihan slowly spoke.
"Given that the facts are likely to affect the final outcome, I suggest you remain silent."
Her eyes stayed on my abdomen for a few seconds, then she stood up.
"If you don't have any other evidence, then that's all for today. If you have any further details, please let me know."
I let out a long sigh and followed her out.
When I walked out of the meeting room, I heard the staff of the law firm call Meng Xihan 'Meng Par', and I couldn't help but stop.
I looked around the law firm. The decoration was very new and the style was very simple, which was in line with Meng Xihan's personality.
When Meng Xihan looked back at me, I couldn't help but sigh.
"Congratulations, you've become a partner in the law firm so quickly."
Meng Xihan pushed open the door, a smile not reaching his eyes: "I have to thank you for your training back then."
I felt a little hurt by her implicit sarcasm.
If I hadn't been so cruel back then, she wouldn't have been so devoted to her career.
Is this what you mean?
In front of the law firm, heavy rain was blown in by the wind and fell on my face.
I casually pushed aside my hair and said calmly, "If Lawyer Meng insists on saying that, I appreciate it."
After saying that, I raised my foot and prepared to leave.
Meng Xihan suddenly asked: "Do you regret it?"
