Attorney Wang had no choice but to speak tactfully.
With Shu Mowan's understanding and the Shu family's mediation, it would be easy for Shu Xueyin to be acquitted.
Fu Rong's expression stiffened.
How could she not know this? But...
"Attorney Wang, is there nothing else besides this?"
She frowned and asked.
Attorney Wang shook his head: "Madam, you understand the law, you should know that if the client keeps pressing the issue, it's very difficult to argue for acquittal on such a criminal charge."
Fu Rong immediately lost her temper, her voice rising sharply: "Attorney Wang, I paid so much money to hire you, not for you to spout this kind of nonsense."
Attorney Wang didn't want to take this kind of case either; if things went wrong, he could offend the entire Shu family.
He said tactfully, "Madam, if you feel that I am not knowledgeable enough, you can ask someone else for help."
That's good, he doesn't have to go against the Shu family anymore.
Fu Rong's expression stiffened.
"Attorney Wang, what do you mean? You think I'm not as good as that little hussy, right?"
The next second, her face contorted with rage.
Attorney Wang was frightened by the resentment in her eyes.
“Madam, that’s not what I meant. I’m just worried that I’m not good enough at defending myself, which is why I wanted you to hire a better legal team to try to reduce Ms. Shu’s sentence or argue for her acquittal.”
He forced himself to explain.
However, even he knew that unless Fu Rong could get to know someone who could overpower the Shu family, even hiring the best legal team would probably be of no use.
Sometimes, when power is overwhelming, the law can't function.
Fu Rong waved her hand impatiently, "Attorney Wang, stop with the nonsense. Just defend my granddaughter. I'll arrange for other lawyers."
Attorney Wang had no choice but to become Shu Xueyin's defense attorney.
Fu Rong went with him.
After being interrogated by the police, Fu Rong spoke privately with Shu Xueyin through her connections.
"Grandma, I don't want to go to jail. You said you would help me."
Shu Xueyin grabbed Fu Rong's hand, tears streaming down her face. "If I go to jail, my life is over."
Who in high society would marry a woman who's been in prison?
No!
If you forced her to marry a low-class man, she would be absolutely disgusted.
Fu Rong's heart clenched. "Yinyin, no, Grandma's here. She won't let you go to jail."
"Grandma, did you manage to get my sister's forgiveness?"
Shu Xueyin looked at her and asked hopefully.
Fu Rong's expression stiffened, and she looked away, not daring to meet Shu Xueyin's eyes.
Seeing this, Shu Xueyin felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and couldn't help but inwardly complain that Fu Rong was useless.
They kept saying they would let her off the hook, but a whole day has passed and they still haven't gotten Shu Mowan to budge.
"Yinyin, don't worry, Grandma promises you that she will use all her connections to get you out as soon as possible."
Fu Rong noticed the disappointment in Shu Xueyin's eyes and grabbed her hand to reassure her.
Shu Xueyin smiled wryly and asked in return, "Does Grandma know any families better than the Shu family?"
