Chapter 92: Ants
In the previous office, several partners of Kageren Law Firm, including Remington Daniel, and more than 20 associate lawyers gathered together, crowding the 50-square-meter conference room.
Antonio sat inside, looking ugly as he listened to Bobby Galleson's explanation.
βThis is the letter we found in the archives at Mike Ross's prompt. It comes from the Rising Sun Company and explains the current state of the Archibald apartments. They have completely halted the condominium project and reported to the city and development board to reuse the site for industrial use. Surprisingly, when I called just now, the city government said that their approval had already come down, and they agreed to the request of the Rising Sun. As for the development committee, they have just dealt with this matter and are still going through the process. If you say that there is no special intervention, there is a good chance that it will pass. β
Before Bobby Galleson could finish speaking, there was an uproar in the room.
Antonio, who was at the other end of the long table, had already squeezed his cigar in his hand.
"I wonder why this letter was thrown into the archives?"
Remington Daniel was the first to speak, and with a cold gaze, he looked at the members of the liaison group in the corner: "Can you explain, gentlemen and ladies? Why do we know nothing about such an important matter?"
The men glanced at each other, all of them looking flustered. Finally, a middle-aged man replied calmly: "Mr. Daniel, this is our mistake." But I guess they must have taken some measures, and according to the working procedure, our liaison team will check every letter and record every phone call. β
At this time, he suddenly thought of something, and his face turned pale: "It's Tania, Tania who left his post two days ago! On Tuesday, he was on duty." β
At this time, a member of the Archives Department also frowned: "I have found the records here, and the liaison team did have a copy of the notification letter and a phone call record to Lawyer Bobby Gallerson and Mr. Daniel, but the two of you don't seem to have paid attention to this and have not dealt with it." β
Remington Daniel was slightly stunned, and then instructed an assistant lawyer behind him: "Go and rummage through the papers on my desk and find them at the bottom." β
"Enough!"
This sentence came from a silver-haired old man next to Daniel. And everyone here except Antonio couldn't help but look slightly solemn.
β That's Isolde Kageren, the founding partner of the Kajeren law firm.
"Obviously, we were calculated, weren't we? If it wasn't on the city government's side, there would be no way for Glorious Sun to get approval in a day. Now the most important thing is, have they done more than that? I know Harvey Spector, who is a fox. If he's targeting us, then everything must have been laid out. Now, tell me, is there a possibility that something will go wrong with the process of contacting Ellen Appraisal? I guess you must have been very careful, as always, right?"
But when he asked this, several people present broke out in a cold sweat. And Isolde Kageren's face is also gloomy and difficult to see.
Although no one he asked answered, Kagelen had already guessed the outcome.
"In other words, the case will be overturned as for the inheritance tax, and as for the lawsuit entrusted to you by the Burton Neighborhood Homeowners Association, it will also be over?"
Antonio had already gotten up from his seat and looked coldly at everyone present: "So, my Archibald apartment acquisition plan has to start again now, right?
He waited for a moment, and when he saw that there was silence in this conference room, he turned around and left without hesitation: "Gentlemen from Kageren Law Firm, I am very disappointed in you! All the previous fees, I will let my financial manager call your account later, goodbye!"
And Remington Daniel's whole person was already slumped in the seat at this time.

At the same time, Mike Rose, who had returned to the Pearson-Darby-Spector Law Firm with Li Mochen, was smiling slightly: "According to sources, our downstairs has been in a panic. They are now like ants on a hot pan. β
"The dust has settled, and no matter how hard they try, it's useless. β
Harvey Spector tapped his fingers on the table: "Actually, it is best to send a lawyer's letter in two days, and it is more reasonable." If the other party challenges this matter in court, we are still in a little trouble. β
"I know that, but I don't want to see them smug in front of me. β
Li Mochen thought to himself that he could endure it, but the original owner of the body would explode!
In fact, at this very moment, he felt that his soul fusion process had gone further. Obviously, the matter he led today made the original owner's consciousness very satisfied.
ββIn Li Mochen's view, this is the most important thing.
Harvey Spector couldn't help but shake his head slightly, thinking that this was really a senseless act of willfulness and would not help solve the problem at all. But this is the character of a young man, and he himself thought that the son of this old man was a calm guy.
"Well, you're the employer, you have the final say. But why mention the letter from the Rising Sun? This is an early exposure, and it loses its suddenness. We've done our best, but sometimes things happen. β
Mike replied with a smile: "That's my question, I just happened to know the liaison team of their firm, there is a guy named Tania who quit two days ago and has boarded a luxury cruise ship to the Caribbean. I guess it helps us to look away and put more pressure on us. β
"You? you've always been so self-conscious. Forget it~"
Harvey snorted, "But then, I still hope you can do what we say." Especially you, Amer, you don't want the golden shield in your hand to fly away, right?"
"Of course. β
At this time, Li Mochen's eyes also flashed with curiosity: "The price of your claim is 9.7 million gold, can you get it?"
"The price is all over the sky, and I pay back the money on the spot, and my psychological price is 4.3 million gold. Once this price is exceeded, Kajeren Law Firm may not be able to afford it, they will go bankrupt directly, and it is better to dissolve and reorganize. As for the appraisal company, it is 1.2 million gold dong. According to the agreement, seventy percent of it will be ours. But I think the rest of the money is probably more than enough for you to pay the inheritance tax. β
Harvey Spector said this, and smiled slightly: "Amer, you should know how much our law firm has paid for you this time, right?"
"Favors. β
Li Mochen's eyes flashed slightly: "I will keep today's events in mind." β
Compared with the more than 3.8 million gold that this law firm may obtain, the favors they use for this purpose are undoubtedly more precious.
βGOOD!β
Harvey Spector's eyes showed appreciation, and just as he was about to continue, the door to the conference room suddenly opened, and a black woman dressed neatly and neatly dressed in jewels walked in.
Harvey Spector and Mike Ross immediately got up, and the former introduced Li Mochen: "This is Ms. Jessica Pearson from our law firm. β
Li Mochen suddenly understood: "Is Pearson Pearson Darby Spector the Pearson?"
He is also the CEO of this law firm. β
Jessica Pearson smiled and shook hands with Li Mochen: "Mr. Li, I have been paying attention to your entrustment, and I hope you are satisfied with the service of our law firm." β
"Of course yes, if I had to rate it, it would be 100%. If I need anything in the future, then your law firm will be my only option. β
Li Mochen couldn't help laughing, but what he wanted to know more now was the meaning of this person.
And Jessica Pearson also saw the question in his eyes: "It seems that Mr. Li is curious, so I'll be straightforward." This time, I am entrusted by my client to ask Mr. Li, do you have any intention to sell the Archibald apartment as a whole?"
