“Now some people think they are a couple. Xie Chuancai and Zhang Yuefen even help take care of their grandson. This evidence is enough. Xie Yuan can’t escape the charge of bigamy.”
"Master, what is the point of marriage?" The intern had just joined the law firm, but had already witnessed several divorce cases. Whether it was a couple who had gone through thick and thin together, a family marriage, or a childhood sweetheart, they all ended up in ugly ways, making her afraid of marriage.
"Marry when feelings and interests are there, divorce when feelings and interests are gone. What's the point of marriage? Don't overthink it. It's your own life. You can refer to other people's experiences, but you can't project them onto you."
The intern was somewhat bewildered. What her mentor said was practically meaningless. However, she decided that if her daughter got married in the future, the relevant agreements should be signed beforehand to avoid future troubles like Ms. Song's.
Xie Yuan's ambitions are too great. Fortunately, Miss Song's parents had taken precautions before their deaths, stipulating that the Song family property could only be inherited by Miss Song alone. Otherwise, even if Xie Yuan were sent to prison for bigamy, a portion of the property would still be lost.
"Master, now all we need to do is wait for the relevant financial evidence before we can start suing Xie Yuan?"
"Yes, everything is going smoothly so far. If only every employer were as intelligent and organized as Ms. Song."
"It really saved us a lot of trouble. Take Ms. Li from the last case, for example. She was confident of winning, but she impulsively provoked the defendant and almost hurt someone. She also revealed all the evidence we had found. Fortunately, you are a highly professional mentor and were able to turn the tide."
"In fact, most plaintiffs are like Ms. Li. You must not be blinded by a rational and intelligent employer like Ms. Song and let your professional vigilance go to waste."
"Understood, Master. Should we continue to collect evidence of their lives?"
"We still need to. You'll be in charge of the rest. Also, based on their words and actions these past few days, I've noticed they might target the employer's daughter, Xie Lingling. Be very careful."
"Don't worry, Master. If they take any action, I will definitely get the evidence."
"Obtaining evidence is secondary; the first priority is ensuring the safety of the employer's daughter, do you understand? We cannot put people in danger just to win a lawsuit."
The intern paused for a moment, then said solemnly, "Master, I understand."
"Zuo Shan, is this your husband? He's such a busy man, but he spends time with you whenever he has a spare moment. That's great." A neighbor was also taking a walk in the neighborhood with her child. They had met before because they often ran into each other.
Few people are immune to vanity, and Zuo Shan was clearly not one of them. The reason she stayed by Xie Yuan's side and endured it all was because she valued Xie Yuan's abilities and the enormous wealth behind Song Xia.
People like her, after achieving initial success, inevitably want to show off; otherwise, wouldn't there be no place to display their expensive clothes and bags? After all, she's not qualified to attend various banquets with Xie Yuan.
This woman is the one Zuo Shan compares herself to in daily life. Their children are also about the same age, so they have a lot of contact.
As the conversation progressed, the woman, misled by Zuo Shan's deliberate misleading, mistakenly believed that Xie Yuan was her husband.
The people living in this community are all rich and powerful. The woman was unconvinced before, but now that she sees Xie Yuan's handsome appearance, she feels a little jealous. Why is it that other people's husbands are so outstanding and considerate?
"Yes, Zhao Hui, where's your husband?" Zuo Shan deliberately took Xie Yuan's arm, her expression sweet.
Zhao Hui's expression twisted for a moment. Zuo Shan knew that her husband was having an affair, yet she still asked this question. Was it funny?
"He's busy again, isn't he? After all, he has to support a lot of people, so he's bound to be busy," Zuo Shan said sarcastically.
Zhao Hui couldn't help but curse: "If you want to see me make a fool of myself, just say so. There's no need for this. She's just a mistress. I don't even care about her."
"Don't speak so harshly. Listen to your sister's advice. Winning back your husband's heart as soon as possible is the most important thing. Otherwise, you'll have to give up your affluent life. Finding true love at this age is no small matter."
"What a load of bull! Those who interfere in marriages are all sluts. Sluts deserve to die, and those who betray their marriages also deserve to die."
Hearing this, Zuo Shan felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but retort, "Zhao Hui, I don't know if you've ever heard the saying, 'The one who isn't loved is the third party.' Marriage shouldn't be a shackle that binds people."
Zhao Hui sneered: "So eager to speak up for the mistress? What, were you also a mistress who rose to power?"
Unbeknownst to her, her unintentional remark had just guessed the truth, causing Zuo Shan's face to turn pale and then red. However, Zhao Hui was currently enraged and had no time to observe.
Xie Yuan couldn't be bothered to listen to their arguments, especially since it sounded like a veiled attack on him and Zuo Shan. He felt humiliated and became even colder towards Zuo Shan, finding it extremely tasteless for her to flaunt his relationship with others.
"I'm going to check on Tianci." He said and left quickly. Zuo Shan wanted to stop him but didn't have time to say anything, and was also afraid that Zhao Hui would find out something.
So she smiled faintly and said, "My husband, as soon as he comes home, his mind is all on me and the kids. It's hard for me to have been with him all this time."
Zhao Hui was furious. She had been mocked, but she couldn't find any weakness in Zuo Shan. Zuo Shan's husband was handsome and capable, and her in-laws doted on their grandson and often came to take care of him. She seemed like a winner in life.
She gritted her teeth inwardly, refusing to believe that Zuo Shan could have such a smooth and happy life forever. Would someone like Xie Yuan be content to stay with one woman for life? Zuo Shan wasn't even the most beautiful type.
Little did she know that her chance to retaliate would soon come, and that Zuo Shan was the kind of person she despised and hated the most.
The law firm intern recorded everything, thinking how wonderful it would be if obtaining evidence were always this easy.
She really couldn't understand how someone like Zuo Shan dared to be so high-profile. Did she assume that Miss Song wouldn't find out and would be manipulated at will?
Besides, can you really feel at ease flaunting stolen wealth?
Each time the evidence was compiled, the law firm would send it to Song Xia for review. Song Xia had long suspected this, but she never expected that this family would be so unscrupulous now.
She herself deeply regrets being so ignorant and love-struck in the past, which allowed her to be manipulated by others.
"Ms. Song, we have also noticed that Xie Yuan and his parents may harm your daughter. If we can obtain relevant evidence, we can add a charge of intentional injury to the charges of bigamy and embezzlement. This will be more favorable to you after the trial."
“I know, but I won’t let them succeed. However, I have surveillance cameras installed at home, and if they capture their plan, I hope it will be helpful to the case.”
"Even if the crime was not successfully committed, the act of causing harm is still a crime. Although the circumstances are relatively minor, multiple crimes will be punished together, which will be enough to make Xie Yuan suffer a lot. His parents will also not be able to escape punishment."
"Thank you, everyone. You've all worked so hard during this time."
"It's all we should do, Ms. Song. Next, we just need to wait for complete evidence of his transfer of assets. The court will be held soon after the lawsuit is filed. Please make the necessary preparations."
“Okay, I’ll force him to slip up at the company too.” A glint of cunning flashed in Song Xia’s eyes, and she looked confident of victory.
