Chapter 419
No matter how sincere the apology letter is, there’s always someone who’ll find fault with it
Anyway, this apology statement couldn’t calm public opinion. It was close to noon when Leap Tech also released a new recruitment policy smar to Quantum’s, giving more opportunities to outstanding talents
At 1 PM, CloudTop Inc followed the same recruitment policy
Public opinion seemed to change slightly
Leap Tech is the Rowley family’s business, a market leader in the internet industry, while CloudTop Inc is the Garcia family business representing high end manufacturing
These two companies, like Quantum, have high selection criteria, and the release of their new rules shows their support for Quantum
This was good news for job seekers, so they quickly supported by them
Steven was not happy that someone took the initiative before him.
Frowning, he said, “I was hoping to have Liam owe me a favor, but I didn’t expect someone else to take the credit. Why is that Rowley family crazy always like this?”
Nathan said, “Leap Tech is now controlled by Simon Rowley. Gavin Rowley has passed away.”
Steven thought for a while before saying, “They look too much alike.”
Celeste couldn’t get through to Liam. Seeing the public opinion temporarily subsided, she felt a little relieved.
Mason called
He had also noticed the change in online public opinion, so he contacted Celeste to inquire about Liam’s situation.
Celeste spoke softly, “I didn’t know, he won’t answer my calls either.”
Things had temporarily settled down, and Liam not taking her calls meant he was mad.
She was too obvious with her actions, Liam could tell she was behind everything without even thinking
She got him in so much trouble, there was no way Liam wouldn’t be mad.
Mason paused for a moment, comforting her, “Maybe he’s just busy.”
Celeste remained silent.
Mason asked, “Are you okay?”
Celeste realized Mason was asking about the impact of the incident on her.
She wasn’t worried about being implicated in her own exposure.
“I’m fine,” Celeste thought momentarily, “Mr. Fletcher, can you help me with a divorce case?”
Mason was surprised, “Are you divorcing Liam?”
Celeste thought to herself, even if I were to divorce Liam, I wouldn’t ask you for help.
“Not me, it’s my mother.”
Celeste briefly explained the situation between Caitlyn and Shawn before and mentioned the divorce agreement from seven years ago.
She asked, “Mr. Fletcher, in my mother’s situation, could they still divide the property according to the agreement they signed seven years ago if she divorces?”
Mason replied, “It’s difficult.”
Celeste’s mood suddenly became much heavier.
“Although they signed a divorce agreement, the relevant procedures were not processed. As you said, most of the Campbell family’s business’ shares are now in your father’s hands, and he has been covering your mother’s medical expenses since her accident. From a legal perspective, he fulfills his husband duties to provide for his wife. So it’s very difficult to make him leave empty-handed.”
“What about evidence of infidelity?”
Mason smiled, “Infidelity can be a basis for marital breakdown, and the judge can lean towards the innocent party in terms of property distribution, but but it cannot prevent the other party from getting nothing. Moreover, as I said earlier, he has been paying your mother’s medical expenses; his lawyer only needs to insist on this point, and it would be difficult for you to win this lawsuit.”
Celeste frowned, and somewhat angrily said, “Why does the law protect the interests of the guilty party?”
Mason was silent for a moment before saying, “Even the law can’t be absolutely fair.”
Celeste closed her eyes, pressed the corners of her eyes, and whispered after a while, “Sorry, Mr. Fletcher, I wasn’t angry at you”
“It’s okay, I’ve dealt with many divorce cases worse than yours.” Mason said, “If you want Shawn to leave empty-handed, you can only make him
Chapter
“How could someone like him voluntarily give up the property?”
“So your mother’s approach back then was very powerful and worth learning”
Celeste shook her head, “My mother collected these materials and forced him to sign the divorce agreement. Then she had an accident, and how could Shawn not take advantage of it and destroy the evidence? He might have patched things up by now”
“It may not necessarily be this way” Mason said, “If, according to you, Shawn is selfish and always prioritizes his interests, even if he was afraid and mended his mistakes back then, it doesn’t mean he didn’t make any later. It’s difficult for people to change their nature”
“You’re right, I’ve thought about it too. But I can’t see the company accounts”
Caitlyn used to manage the entire company, so she was very familiar with the company’s accounts. She could easily find Shawn’s criminal evidence. But now, she can’t do it. She doesn’t even know who the company’s financial officer is, let alone find the evidence of his crimes Mason thought for a while and said, “Do you have contact information for former employees of the company?”
Celeste remembered the notebook Caitlyn stored in the safe, and nodded, “Yes.”
“You send me their contact information, and I’ll try to get some information. If they are your mother’s friends, they may know something you
don’t.”
Celeste suddenly realized, “Why didn’t I think of this?”
After Caitlyn’s accident, Shawn made significant layoffs, forcing many old employees to resign. There must be one or two people who knew some inside information, right?
“Wait a moment, I’ll get their contact information and send it to you.”
Mason said, “You don’t have to send it now, let’s meet later. You said you have the evidence your mother collected seven years ago, bring it and show it to me, I want to see if there’s any useful information in it.”
