57. Sincerity that is heavier than a marriage letter

Chapter 57 Sincerity is heavier than a marriage letter

Jojo dragged a large suitcase and his tired body after a long flight, and followed this lawyer Yang to his law firm, and the business card handed over by the other party was a partner of the law firm. Lawyer Yang, who is over half a hundred years old, is actually very kind to Qiaoqiao, and he introduced himself to Qiaoqiao on the road: "Actually, I am not Lu Ze's lawyer, I am his father's friend for many years. ”

Sitting down in Lawyer Yang's office, he pushed over two legal documents to Qiao Qiao, and added: "Miss Qiao, these are the unconditional gift contracts of Lu Ze's property and the notarized will, I can't guarantee that he will not change the will in the future, but as long as you sign the gift contract, he will immediately go to you to notarize it, and then handle the transfer of property rights." Then the property represented by this will is only the money he can earn in the future. ”

Jojo didn't even open it, so he wanted to refuse.

Lawyer Yang stopped Qiao Qiao, who wanted to speak, and said, "Lu Ze knows that you won't want it, you don't have to speak, and you don't have to refuse." You open it first and listen to me slowly. After Lu Ze settled when he was eighteen years old, his notarized will was never changed, and if his grandparents were still alive when he died, he left a pension fund. If his grandparents were no longer there, he had also made up his mind that he didn't want to get married and have children, and planned to donate all of them to anti-drunk driving related public welfare organizations after his death. So when he came to me to change the will and proposed gift contract, I kept advising him to be cautious, I persuaded him to change the will, anyway, he can change it again if he regrets it later, but the gift contract of all his net worth is not good. ”

Qiao Qiao silently flipped through the text, although she would definitely not sign it and would not accept it, but Lu Ze listed everything in it except for leaving a pension fund for Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao.

Lawyer Yang took off his glasses and wiped them, and said, "Miss Qiao, I am already over half a hundred years old, and as a lawyer, I have never seen the joys and sorrows of the world. I have seen too many men and women who don't distinguish between you and me when they have deep affection, but when they part ways, they turn against each other, so I really don't agree with Lu Ze doing this, but he has already made up his mind. He said that neither of you plans to get married, except for the children, isn't it the joint property of the husband and wife and the order of inheritance that matters whether you get married or not? But he really wants to go with you for the rest of his life. You don't have a marriage certificate as a guarantee, these are basically pre-marital assets, even if you get married, a marriage certificate can't give you any protection, so he gives you everything he can, as long as he has it. He said that he knew that you were not greedy for this money, and it didn't matter whose name these things were, two people were together, and these things would always be in one person's name, and he just wanted to put the initiative in your hands. ”

Lawyer Yang put his glasses back on, pointed to the will and gift contract in Qiaoqiao's hand, and said: "I asked him what was going on, and he refused to elaborate, only saying that he hacked your computer, violated your **, and basically rummaged through your past and all**." He knows that even if he promises to you not to do it again, it is useless to only verbally promise, and he also knows that you don't want his money, he just gives you the initiative, and in case things don't go awry in the future, he can't fulfill his promise, and you hold all his property. ”

Lawyer Yang sighed, "He said that he admitted what he had done, and he admitted that he didn't feel sorry at the time, but he also sincerely apologizes now, and will not do such a thing in the future, so let you give him another chance." I know that he violated your ** rights, but I think these things, at least express his sincerity and apology, and deserve to give him another chance. As long as you sign it and go to the notarization to handle the transfer of property rights, what you hold in your hand is all his net worth. Miss Qiao, these two documents are much more valuable than the marriage letter. Do you know how many prenuptial agreements and divorce lawsuits I've handled? This can really be said to be a person's highest specification, the most sincere I love you and I'm sorry. ”

Jojo didn't know what to say as he flipped through the list of his possessions, which were his property, his car, his company shares, his squash courts, his bank accounts, his investments, his money, and, his will.

She herself is the one who never tells anyone about her finances. She feels that property is the most important part of the individual, food, clothing, housing, transportation, firewood, rice, oil and salt, and the confidence and reliance of not getting married.

If Lu Ze violated her past, her private mood tried to find out her and tried to pursue her, but Lu Ze never plotted the part she valued most, which was related to her financial situation.

Lawyer Yang stood up and paced slowly in front of the window, thinking about how to talk about the past: "Miss Qiao, I mentioned before that I am actually a friend of Lu Ze's father for many years. More than 30 years ago, we started from scratch together, but our careers did not overlap much, and I never represented their in-house counsel. ”

He turned his head to Qiao Qiao and smiled gently: "You just treat me as an elder who watched Lu Ze grow up, Lu Ze has grown up now, I think there are many things that he may not be able to complain about as a man now, and he may not be willing to complain, so I said that I will pick him up and want to see you first, because I have something I want to say to you alone." I'm only a part of what I know, but I think you'll be able to understand him after hearing it. ”

Qiao Qiao looked at each other slightly puzzled, not knowing what else was in the past besides the car accident Lu Ze didn't tell her.

Lawyer Yang pondered and slowly told Qiao Qiao about the past: "Miss Qiao, you are in finance, you should also know that in fact, it is not easy to do business, our generation started from scratch decades ago, whether you like it at the beginning or not, in the end, it is heavy on smoking, drinking and socializing, running customers to ask Party A These are common things, and the health is not very good." At that time, we had an old classmate, who really went at a young age, and the little family business that he fought for, his wife remarried with his young daughter, and gave birth to a new child, and he neglected the former children, and he didn't know if the property could still fall back into the hands of his own children. ”

"At that time, we were quite touched by the alumni reunion, and several students made wills early. I am mainly engaged in marriage and inheritance consultation and cases, Lu Ze's father left a notarized will with me, leaving all the things in his name to Lu Ze, but he did not sue anyone, after all, the chance of me and him having an accident at the same time is too small, just have one person know. At that time, Lu Ze was still very young, and when he grew up, he would sue him the same. Because leaving a will too early is always very sensitive, the company was established before marriage when it became bigger, Lu Ze's mother had an ordinary family background, Lu Ze's father was the second son, and he also had a brother from top to bottom. If he really left early and left no will, then most of the property would eventually go to his wife and parents. In case his wife remarries, and if his parents feel sorry for the eldest son and youngest son from an ordinary family, then Lu Ze can get too little. ”

Lawyer Yang smiled helplessly at Qiao Qiao: "Miss Qiao, don't think we are too realistic. First, people who have been in the business for a long time are quite realistic, and secondly, our generation is not an only child, and our parents do not have a bowl of water to be leveled, not to mention that after Lu Ze's father succeeded in starting a business, the gap between his family background and the two brothers is too big, plus his parents are really distressed about the eldest son and younger son, and they are relatively negligent to the second child, so this kind of thing is very likely to happen. In addition, although the relationship between the husband and wife was very good at that time, no one could do anything in the future, and there was a lot of joint property between the husband and wife, even if all the property in his name was left to Lu Ze, the remaining half would definitely be enough for his wife to live or even more than enough. In fact, people seem to be flowing downstream, and we really have to pay more attention to our only only child than we do to our spouses and parents. ”

But things are so unfortunate, Lu Ze had an accident the day after he got the admission letter. I got married early and my daughter got married early, and it happened that my daughter got married and had her honeymoon, so that our old couple also went out to be chic, and I happened to be on a long vacation overseas, so I didn't know about it at all. ”

Lawyer Yang looked out the window and was silent for a while, and he and Qiao Qiao sighed: "Do ordinary children have to do it after the college entrance examination?" Judging from my daughter and her classmates, graduation trips, all-night games, hanging out, diligent summer jobs, and more college homework. But Lu Ze suffered at the age of eighteen, except for the car accident that destroyed his family, there should be much more than you know and imagine. I asked Lu Ze, and he said that you probably knew about the car accident from his grandparents, but in fact, the two old people didn't know everything. ”

"Lu Ze's mother is an ordinary family, and the two old people are also ordinary old people, and they fell ill and were hospitalized for nearly two months as soon as they got the news of the car accident. During their hospitalization, the only thing they could help with was to sign the renunciation of Lu Ze's mother's inheritance, so they didn't know the whole thing. ”

Lu Ze stayed in the cemetery for three days and three nights after the funeral, and was later sent to the hospital. It is impossible for the company to cease operation because of the death of one of its shareholders, but they want an eighteen-year-old child who doesn't know anything and doesn't care about anything, but wants to sit on more than two-thirds of the company's shares and dividends, so they want to buy the shares in Lu Ze's hands according to the amount of capital contributed by his father back then. Miss Qiao, you do this, you naturally know how big the gap is for a company with stable profits. In fact, they can't do this, Lu Ze's father's equity ratio is 67%. But in that situation at that time, if the company and they also left it alone, or transferred the business for profit, or other circumstances, Lu Ze, who had just graduated from high school, would not be able to take over, he was still sick, and he had to go to college. ”

At that time, Lu Ze just didn't say a word on the hospital bed, refusing to agree or sign, but the matter was not resolved, and he received a court summons in the hospital, not he sued the perpetrator, but he was the defendant. An ordinary person's real estate can fall apart, and the six relatives don't recognize it, let alone face hundreds of millions of company assets? Lu Ze's father started a business from scratch, and he has company shares, real estate, cash, and cars under his name, but his father's brothers are just ordinary jobs and a house. They jointly sued for the inheritance dispute, claiming that Lu Ze's parents died on the spot at the scene of the car accident, so inheritance should occur first. The grandparents died of their injuries in the hospital that night, and later inherited. ”

Under such a proposition, all of Lu Ze's father's property should be divided into three, and Lu Ze can only get one-third, and two-thirds will be inherited by his grandparents. At the same time, the other party had a handwritten will from his grandparents, which said that because the second son was in good financial condition, the estate would be divided equally between the eldest son and the younger son, which cut off Lu Ze's right to subrogation. ”

Lu Ze is not well, the people he can rely on are either killed in a car accident or are fighting with him for the inheritance, and the two old people who fell ill and were hospitalized in a different place can't help much, and two lawsuits are being fought at the same time. In fact, before he was sued by his father's brother for an estate dispute to the court, he and his father's brother sued the perpetrator and the car insurance company as joint plaintiffs. It's just that the perpetrator himself died on the spot because of his poor family background, even if the estate is enforced and the car insurance compensation is not much, it is really a small amount of money compared to the estate lawsuit. ”

At that time, Lu Ze lived in the hospital, every day at the bedside of the inheritance law and the company law, hung hanging bottles in the hospital at night, went out to the court to fight lawsuits during the day, fought for the company, and faced the psychological trauma after the family was broken. If you ask him now, you will know how well he knows about company law and inheritance law. ”

"By the time I came back and found out about it, he had already obtained the signed letter from his grandparents renunciating the inheritance, used the cash in his mother's name to fight the lawsuit, and had enough money to hire a lawyer, and he quickly settled the lawsuit with the perpetrator and the car insurance company. When I came back, there was only an estate lawsuit, and the handwriting results had come out, and the handwritten wills of his grandparents' grandparents that his father's brother had taken out were forged, but they all blamed each other that they had forged them. ”

"When I saw Lu Ze for the first time, I couldn't tell that this was the child who liked sports that I grew up watching, and I can't describe his appearance at that time. An eighteen-year-old boy looked at his father's brother and said with a blank face, "If there is such a thing in the future, I will let you know what it means to be a lonely man." ”

"When I took out the notarized will that Lu Ze's father put here with me, I ended this lawsuit. After that, Lu Ze countersued the other party for forging a will, depriving them of the right to inherit the inheritance of the estate in the name of their grandparents, although it was not much, but it left them empty-handed and nothing. Since then, Lu Ze has never had any contact with his paternal relatives, and has completely broken off friendship, and it is said that they will not go to the grave on the day of death. ”

"Later, in the company's affairs, I drafted a performance VAM agreement for him to stabilize other shareholders other than his father as the management to manage the company, this agreement stipulates that 50% of the company's annual after-tax profits will be divided, and other shareholders are responsible for the company's operation, Lu Ze does not participate, as long as they can complete the different performance indicators agreed in the agreement, and Lu Ze's shares in different proportions of the inversion relationship at the time of dividends."

For the sake of interests, his father's brother turned against him, and his father's business partner took advantage of the fire to rob, Lu Ze may not be like this by nature, but the acquired circumstances actually made him a very vigilant person and sometimes acted fiercely. You have to say that he sometimes uses all means, and some of them ignore it, which is true. If he really lost the lawsuit back then, I don't know what he could do. So you said he snooped on your ** and didn't feel sorry at all, probably so. Maybe it's because he sees you 100% that he will trust you 100%, be unwary of you, give you everything, and use all his net worth to guarantee his promise. ”

Qiaoqiao sat there speechless for a long time, remembering many stories he had heard when he first started in the industry, how many business partners had turned against each other after they really started their businesses, and how many mom-and-pop shops had fallen apart after they had grown. It is good for ordinary people to earn a house in their lifetime, and when there are enough interests in front of them, there are always people who take risks, and there are always people who do not have a conscience.

Lawyer Yang looked at Qiao Qiao, who was sitting there with red circles in his eyes, and hoped that Lu Ze could go back with her: "These words are not what he asked me to say, he originally wanted to pick up the plane and bring things to you by himself, but he was worried that you would think he would impress you with money." I think there are some things that he himself may not be able to export, and he does not want to export, so I want to talk to you. In fact, Lu Ze was really a very sunny and well-behaved athletic teenager when he was a child, and he was no different from ordinary children, and since then, he doesn't like to talk, and he doesn't want to socialize with people, like an ice cube just taken out of the refrigerator. But he has recovered a lot more after being with you, what he did before was very bad, but at least he apologized sincerely, and I hope you can forgive him. He's downstairs, can you go down and meet him? ”

When Qiao Qiao went downstairs and saw Lu Ze, she felt that he was not in a good state, she reached out to take Lu Ze and asked him softly: "I will return Wen Jiàn to you, you give me back the ring, okay?" ”

Lu Ze didn't know what Lawyer Yang and Qiao Qiao said, so he took Qiao Qiao's hand, leaned forward slightly and bent down against her forehead, looked at her seriously and said, "Qiao Qiao, I didn't take these to impress you because you definitely wouldn't sign or ask for it." ”

Lu Ze stretched out his empty right hand, with his car keys lying in his palm, and said in a low voice: "I'm not pretending to be pitiful and poking you, I really haven't slept for a long time, it's not very comfortable, and it's not suitable to drive back there." You drive yourself, I'll take you to where I grew up. He paused and asked her in a low voice, "Is it okay?" ”

He has seen Jojo's heart, past and secrets, and now he takes the initiative to pick up his long-sealed past, whether it is good or bad, dark or not, and gives her every side of himself without reservation.
