Chapter 3119
Although the phone ringtone and the rhythm of the vibration were no different from usual, Jimmy felt that the phone ring was much more urgent, and it seemed to be getting more and more urgent and restless.
Just then, the restless phone ring finally stopped, leaving a missed call on his mobile phone screen.
Immediately after, he received a text message from his boss, which read: "Answer that damn phone of yours! Immediately! Right now!"
Seeing this message, although Jimmy had a dry mouth, he still swallowed hard subconsciously. He had said too much before, and his throat was in a dry, tearing pain.
But he couldn't care about these now, because his boss's phone called again.
Because of the text message, Jimmy didn't dare to hesitate anymore, so he could only answer the phone in panic, looking at the proud Steve, and said to the phone tremblingly: "Bo... Boss..."
A hysterical roar came from the other end of the phone: "Shi Misi, what the hell did you do outside?! Why did someone from the Rothschild family call and say that the eldest young master is very dissatisfied with you?! I have been working hard for the Rothschild family for so many years, and I haven't had a chance to see the eldest young master. How the hell did you offend the eldest young master?!"
Jimmy's heart that was hanging finally smashed down heavily.
He was still hoping that his boss calling at this time was just a coincidence and had nothing to do with the man in front of him who claimed to be a core member of the Rothschild family.
But as soon as his boss said this, he knew that he had really offended a huge figure today.
He looked at Steve with eyes full of despair and begging, and could only say with a crying voice: "Boss, this... this is a misunderstanding, I will explain it to Mr. Rothschild personally..."
"Explain my ass!" The other party scolded: "Is it still your turn to explain? I tell you, you have been fired by Ellis Law Firm now! You don't need to go through the resignation procedures. I will have someone send your things to your home. From now on, I don't want to see you again, and don't let me see you!"
When Jimmy heard that his boss wanted to fire him, he said subconsciously: "Boss, you don't have the right to do this! My work has always been very outstanding, and I can get A+ in every year's assessment, and I have options in the law firm, and I am also a senior partner of the law firm. You are not qualified to fire me directly! If you want to fire me forcibly, I will sue the law firm and ask you to give huge compensation!"
"I'm not qualified?" The other party sneered: "Jimmy, let me remind you, in the years you have been in the law firm, you have had no less than five clients who traded across the company. Not to mention anything else, just the patent dispute between Mel Goodman and IBM last year, if I remember correctly, our law firm offered him a 20% risk agency share, but he felt the share ratio was too high, and privately reached a 10% risk agency cooperation with you and a small law firm of your college classmate. You were responsible for all work outside the court trial in secret, and your college classmate came forward to participate in the court trial. Finally, you helped him get 45 million US dollars in patent usage fees from IBM and got a return of 4.5 million US dollars. I didn't wrong you on this matter, right? Just this one case can send you to prison!"
Jimmy was sweating profusely, and subconsciously argued: "How is this possible! What you said is completely nonsense! At that time, Mel Goodman felt that his winning rate was very high and was unwilling to give up 20% of the profit to Ellis, so he chose to cooperate with other law firms. As for who he cooperated with, I didn't know at all, and it was impossible for me to participate in it. Don't splash dirty water on me here!"
The other party chuckled: "Jimmy, let's be mature. Some things don't need me to say too clearly. Mel Goodman has met with you and your college classmate many times privately, and you have also held many closed-door meetings to discuss the litigation direction and breakthrough points of the whole case. Mel Goodman has recordings of all these, and these recordings are in my hands."
Jimmy was terrified and blurted out: "You... you must be lying! How is this possible!"
The other party said: "Jimmy, be mature. All partners, if they want to be promoted to senior partners, must have enough handles in my hands, otherwise, no matter how strong their business ability is, I will not give them this opportunity. The prevention is that any senior partner will grab my resources at a critical moment, or want to bite me back when they want to kick me away! Think carefully about when you became a senior partner? Was the time point after Mel Goodman?"
Jimmy murmured dumbfounded: "The second month after the Mel Goodman case ended, I was promoted to senior partner... Could it be... Could it be that you arranged all this?!"
The other party smiled: "You are finally a little smart."
Jimmy gritted his teeth: "Ellis, you bastard! We worked hard for the law firm, and you actually deliberately framed us!"
"It's not framing." The other party said: "I just hope to have more security. You have handles in my hands, but I won't mess with you casually. It's just that you offended the eldest young master of the Rothschild family. I can't be implicated by you, do you know?"
After speaking, the other party added: "Jimmy, what you need to pay attention to now is not that I fired you. This is just the smallest punishment you will receive. If you offend the Rothschild family, they will not make you feel better."
Speaking of this, the other party continued: "Oh, by the way, all the evidence of Mel Goodman's matter has been handed over to the butler of the Rothschild family. If they are still not satisfied with my handling, they might send you to prison. In that case, I advise you not to return to the United States. With such a large amount, life imprisonment is inevitable. You are already fifty years old. Even if you have a chance to be paroled in the future, it is estimated that you will be over seventy-five. Although you and I are colleagues, I can't help you with anything. You'd better pray for yourself."
Jimmy was terrified, his legs were shaking like chaff. He still wanted to say something, but the boss on the other end of the phone had already hung up.
At this time, Jimmy had already lost his composure. He never dreamed that he would offend the number two of the Rothschild family in this Chinese city of Jin Ling. Looking at the world, there are only a handful of people whose status can be compared with Steve Rothschild. Offending him in such a place, the probability is afraid to be lower than winning the American Powerball lottery.
At this moment, his previous rogue momentum disappeared, and he said to Steve with fear and begging: "Ro... Mr. Rothschild... I'm really sorry, I didn't expect it to be you... Just... just now it was a misunderstanding, please don't be familiar with me"
Steve had been a grandson in Jin Ling for many days. It was not easy to pretend to be the successor of the Rothschild family, but he was mocked by Jimmy. His heart was full of evil fire and nowhere to vent. Seeing this grandson still wanting to beg for mercy, he was angry from his heart, gritted his teeth and scolded: "I have grown up so big, you are the first one who dares to scream at me!"
After speaking, he suddenly realized something was wrong. His peripheral vision involuntarily drifted to Ye Chen, and Ye Chen also looked at him with a look of surprise and ridicule.
Steve hurriedly coughed and changed his words: "It's not that no one dares to scream at me, but those are people I respect and admire very much. You, a small lawyer, dare to scream at me. What kind of thing are you?"
Just then, Steve's mobile phone rang, and it was the butler calling.
He answered the phone immediately, and the phone said respectfully: "Eldest young master, I have already told the boss of Ellis, and he said he will fire that Jimmy Shi Misi immediately and completely ban him in the American lawyer industry, so that he will not be a lawyer in the future."
Steve asked: "Anything else?"
The butler said: "The boss of Ellis just sent me some documents. These are evidence of Jimmy Shi Misi's suspected economic crimes. If necessary, the materials can be transferred to the FBI at any time. He said that at least Jimmy Shi Misi can stay in prison until he is seventy-five!"
"Good!" Steve said with satisfaction: "Just do it. Hand over all the materials to the person in charge of the FBI. Tell her, just say I said it, let her supervise this matter personally. I want to make this guy unable to return to the United States."
The butler said immediately: "Okay, eldest young master, I will arrange it."
Steve hung up the phone, looked at Jimmy and said with sarcasm: "After today, you will be a target wanted by the FBI. If you return to the United States, you will be arrested as soon as you get off the plane, and you will wait for at least twenty or thirty years of sentence. So I advise you not to go back. Stay in Jin Ling and find a job. After all, there is no extradition treaty between China and the United States. As long as you haven't been deported, you don't have to go back to jail."
Jimmy was terrified, tears streaming down his face, and knelt on the ground begging: "Mr. Rothschild, please let me go. You can hit me or scold me, please don't hand over the materials to the FBI. If that happens, my life will be over!"
Steve shrugged and sneered: "What I want is to make you over! If you are not over, where should I put my face?"
Seeing that Steve didn't give him any face at all, Jimmy hurriedly looked at Han Meiqing on the side and cried and begged: "Sister-in-law, please help me say something, sister-in-law."
Han Meiqing hadn't come back to her senses yet. Seeing Jimmy, who was arrogant and rogue just now, suddenly begging herself, she didn't know what to do for a while, and just said awkwardly: "Jimmy, I don't know this Mr. Rothschild. I'm afraid I can't express my opinion on the conflict between you two..."
Han Meiqing was not deliberately replying to Jimmy, but because she also knew in her heart that big figures like Steve were not something they could make friends with. He must have come because of Ye Chen's face. He Yuanjiang might not really know the other party, let alone herself.
Jimmy had no life-saving straw now, so he could only pin all his hopes on Han Meiqing, so he knelt and crawled to her, crying and saying: "Sister-in-law, please help me beg Professor He. I will never covet the shares of the Shi Misi Law Firm again. I just want to return to the United States safely and reunite with my family. I really don't want to go to jail, and I don't want to stay in China forever, sister-in-law!"
