465. Chapter 458: Pregnancy and Lining Up to Take the Blame

Everyone will encounter problems they are not necessarily able to decide on.

From the homeless on the side of the road to the president sitting in the presidential palace, they all need someone to provide some constructive suggestions before they make choices for some difficult problems.

Of course, this kind of question will only be asked to those they trust.

Lanse lit another cigarette, "I'll try my best."

"Emily is pregnant."

It can be seen that the expression when William said these words was a bit awkward. He really didn't know how to say this.

Since he started running for municipal councilor, Emily's desire for sex has been reactivated, and of course, his has too.

The couple often fought for a long time. At first, they would pay attention to some measures, but there would always be some accidental times.

The passion came too suddenly, without any preparation, and then found that there was no problem, and gradually they relaxed their vigilance.

Then she got pregnant.

William had an indescribable expression on his face, whether it was happy or unhappy, maybe both. Having another child in middle age is actually a quite happy thing.

Especially since William comes from the landlord class. For the landlord class, children represent wealth. This has nothing to do with whether they are rich or not. This is a very traditional cognition.

He actually wants this child in his heart, but he is also a little worried, because his work will gradually become busy, and he is a little at a loss.

Lanse looked at him and asked after a while, "Why are you worried about this?"

"If you have it, just give birth to it, this is a good thing.", he set a tone for Emily's pregnancy, "And this kind of thing may not happen again in the future."

"Although Pate is already very big, I believe she will also be very happy that she is about to have a younger brother or sister."

"And you know, after we get married, that new life will take her place to make up for the vacancy in your emotions."

After marriage, Lanse doesn't intend to let Pate Lixia move out with him. His "work" is relatively busy, and there are many dangerous situations, plus he cannot accompany Pate Lixia all the time like a normal husband.

So letting Pate Lixia continue to live with the Laolunsi couple is the best choice.

But she is married after all. Federal people are sometimes very sensitive to changes in identity. They will respect the socially independent Pate Lixia more, rather than continuing to treat her as a child.

Many parents will feel sad or even empty after their children are grown and independent, because a spiritual sustenance that has accompanied them for more than ten years has left their lives.

But this newborn will make up for the vacancy in this regard.

William actually wanted this child himself, he just needed someone to convince himself, "You have some truth, I will consider it seriously."

Lanse emphasized again, "What you need is not to consider whether you want it or not, but to let Emily give birth to that child with peace of mind, and give this new life a nice name."

William's face showed a lot of smiles, he nodded vigorously, and at this time he was full of energy.

In fact, he had an idea that he didn't tell Lanse, he hoped this was a boy.

Because only a boy can inherit all his inheritance!

Not just his house, savings, insurance, etc., but also political inheritance.

In fact, he had thought about these before. If he could go very high in the future, but no one could inherit these, how regrettable it would be. He wanted to urge Lanse and Pate Lixia to have a child first.

In the future, this child will inherit everything he has. Unexpectedly, this idea has not been realized, and Emily gave him a surprise!

Before William left, Lanse asked him, "Does Pate know about these things?"

William shook his head, "I haven't told her yet, I'm afraid she might... need some time to accept this!"

Lanse thought for a while, "I'll tell her."

"Then I'll leave it to you!"

After William left, Lanse considered for a while. If their couple has confirmed pregnancy, then this child should be at least more than a month old.

Emily is still very young, she still has a physiological period, the physiological period may be delayed, but at least it should come.

Plus they have to verify it privately, and have to discuss it, maybe there is a month and a half or even two months of time, and after a while, it will be almost visible.

Then it is indeed time to tell Pate Lixia, after all, that is also her home.

Lanse called people directly and went to the place where Pate Lixia worked.

Her colleagues were very enthusiastic to greet him for Lanse's arrival. They also heard the news that Pate Lixia was going to be engaged to Lanse, and they all sent blessings.

William is now a municipal councilor, and Lanse's fame is so great that no one will be stupid enough to find trouble for their family.

Even the supervisor who looked like "official business" and "no human touch, only rules" in the eyes of foreigners smiled and gave Pate Lixia a break time.

The two young people came to Lanse's car, Pate Lixia was very happy, "Don't tell me you miss me!"

Lanse had a shocked expression, "How did you know?"

"I just haven't seen you for a few days and always dream of you. Longing controls my body, making me unable to think, and I can't wait to come over and see you!"

Pate Lixia hugged Lanse's neck and kissed him on the face, "So sweet, dear, I miss you too!"

Young people are always more sentimental. After the two talked for a while, Lanse talked about the real reason for coming here.

"There is something William and Emily don't know how to tell you, so they entrusted me to convey it to you."

"Actually, I think... this is a very ordinary thing, but I also feel that it might make your emotions fluctuate, you have to be prepared."

Pate Lixia's expression became different from just now, she was still a little nervous and uneasy, "Is it bad news?"

"No, strictly speaking, it is good news."

She sat upright and took a few deep breaths, "Come on, I can bear it."

"Emily is pregnant, and they are very likely to give birth to this child."

Pate Lixia's eyes lost focus for a moment, she clearly fell into subconscious thinking, and after a while, she covered her cheeks and made a "hard to believe" feeling!

"I mean... I don't know how to say it anymore, she is actually pregnant!"

Lanse hugged her, "We should all have this premonition and cognition, right?"

This made Emily's face visibly red. Lanse meant that sometimes Emily's voice was very loud. Although their bedrooms were separated by a room, sometimes they could still hear Emily's voice in the dead of night.

"They hope you can accept this child, that's what I think, after all, this is a life, and it's either your younger brother or your younger sister."

Pate Lixia is a kind girl, she didn't go through "struggle" and accepted the arrival of this new life.

"This is the crystallization of their love. In the future, we will also have it. As a future mother, I don't think I should resist the occurrence of these things."

"I can't wait to go back, can you give me a ride?"

Lanse didn't refuse. No one stopped Pate Lixia from asking for leave. Soon they met Emily, who was directing the maid to clean the room, in the new villa.

Seeing Pate Lixia suddenly come back with Lanse, she showed a very awkward expression, "I told William, don't tell anyone about this for now!"

Watching the mother and daughter want to say some whispers, Lanse didn't stay much, and after instructing the servants to pay attention to safety, he left.

This is an interesting experience, and it can also bring him a small, indescribable feeling.

Someone related to him is about to be born.

People will have a shock when facing the birth of a new life, just like facing the disappearance of the same kind of life for the first time, which will give people a wonderful feeling.

Coming, going, the cycle of life, the greatness of the universe.

People will always generate a small emotion when looking up at the starry sky, just like when facing the arrival and departure of life, they have awe for the world.

The prosecution of Liji Group has reached the court stage in the past two days. In fact, there is no need for too much evidence to be collected and organized.

Lawyer Luo Ben's friend took this case, and he also took it last time, and won the lawsuit.

Sometimes winning a lawsuit doesn't mean you really won, and losing doesn't mean you really lost.

When the lawsuit went to court, not many people participated in the hearing. The lawyers for both sides submitted their respective evidence and reasons, expounded their own viewpoints, and their respective demands.

This case had no "doubts." The judge sentenced on the spot, requiring Liji Group to fulfill its breach of contract responsibilities according to the terms stipulated in the contract and pay liquidated damages.

Liji Group's lawyer stated on the spot that they would continue to appeal, and believed that this was not a simple breach of contract lawsuit, and it might involve contract fraud.

As the claiming party, they need to collect enough evidence to support their claims before the next court session, otherwise, the result of this judgment will still be maintained.

"Then in the lawsuit of this case, will there be any other twists and risks?"

In Lawyer Luo Ben's office, in front of Lawyer Luo Ben, Lanse talked about this topic with the lawyer who represented this lawsuit.

Lawyer Luo Ben's friend gave a positive answer, "There might be some problems."

"In this court session, I tried my best to break these problems into independent problems, that is, the problem of Huayuan Trade and Liji Group, and the problem of wheat sprouting in the warehouse."

"I let the judge accept the idea that these are two independent cases, so our obtaining liquidated damages has no direct relationship with wheat sprouting. These are two independent events."

"They want to pursue the problem of wheat sprouting, they must start a new case, investigate, provide evidence, and then find a defendant."

"But their lawyer is trying to put these two cases that should be independent together. Once they succeed, the lawsuit might drag on for a long time."

"There is a lot of evidence that needs to be supplemented, investigated, and many other problems that need to be solved, and I heard that they might use some public relations means."

"After all, this is a huge sum of money!"

Lawyer Luo Ben also nodded and said, "I have a... friend who told me that Liji Group's public relations team is contacting the Court of Appeals."

"Once the Court of Appeals accepts the appeal of the case, the judgment of this case will be postponed for at least half a year, or even longer."

"This depends on how much money they are willing to spend on public relations."

When an individual or organization is dissatisfied with the trial results of the local court, they can appeal to the Court of Appeals.

If the Court of Appeals believes that the trial result of this case is indeed problematic, they will accept the case and conduct a retrial.

But if they believe that the trial result of the local court is no problem, they will reject the appeal.

The Court of Appeals plays a very important role in the federal judiciary!

Each Court of Appeals corresponds to a different judicial jurisdiction, not necessarily a state, but an entire judicial region.

Likalai State belongs to the Ninth Court of Appeals, and the Court of Appeals is in the capital of Likalai State. Lawyer Luo Ben's ability to contact these news is reasonable.

Lanse has always suspected whether he has any relationship in the Ministry of Justice, otherwise how can the judicial system of the whole state sell him a little face?

The Federal Bureau of Prisons is under the Federal Ministry of Justice. Lawyer Luo Ben can arrange things in public prisons managed by the Bureau of Prisons. This only shows that he has someone in the Bureau of Prisons, or even someone in the Ministry of Justice.

Lanse really doesn't know much about judicial matters, "What should we do to be most appropriate?"

"Or should we also conduct public relations on the judges of the Court of Appeals?"

Lawyer Luo Ben shook his head, "I don't think there is any need, nor any meaning."

"Your requirement is to let the judgment come down as soon as possible, and recognize in the judiciary that they should compensate you a large sum of money."

"Then even if we conduct public relations on the Court of Appeals, as long as we can't win the support of all judges, our public relations will become a bit meaningless."

"This is like the relationship between destruction and construction. We need all judges to believe that this case does not need to be retried before it can be rejected by the Court of Appeals."

"But as long as they conduct public relations on two or three judges who believe that a retrial is needed, then it will inevitably be retried."

"So we discussed it and decided to change the strategy."

"Before, our idea was to insist on splitting the 'cause' and 'result' of this case, and then conduct litigation and judgment that is favorable to us based on the result."

"But the situation is different now, we can consider another method."

"If someone takes the blame for the 'cause' part, and it has no direct relationship with the 'result', then even if they conduct public relations on the Court of Appeals, the Court of Appeals will reject their appeal request."

Lanse felt a bit roundabout, "I don't quite understand, say it simply."

"Find someone to take the blame for the sprouting problem.", Lawyer Luo Ben pointed directly to the core.

He doesn't know if the wheat sprouting was Lanse's operation, but this matter must have something to do with Lanse.

Liji Group has never had such a thing happen for so many years, suddenly it happened inexplicably, plus Lanse's lawsuit, how could there be no causal relationship?

But as a lawyer, even if the person who needs his defense is a devil, when he is working, he can only become an angel in his eyes, not to mention that Mr. Lanse himself is not a bad person.

Lanse understood, "If someone takes the blame, how long do they probably need to sit?"

Lawyer Luo Ben and his friend discussed for a while, and finally gave Lanse a relatively simple answer, "If they can afford to compensate for this money, they can come out in about three years."

"If they can't afford to compensate for this money, they might be in for more than ten years."

"This is indeed a very long sentence. Even if we intervene later, we need to be locked up for five to six years before we can come out."

Driving and killing someone, active compensation, can return to society after a year and a half.

But those who caused huge losses to capitalists that could not be made up, have to spend half of their lives in it.

Everyone tells people that "life is an invaluable wealth of life," but even if it is precious, in the face of money, it is not very valuable.

Currency, visible wealth, is the real wealth.

The so-called life, life, independent individual, is actually not worth much at all.

Lanse nodded noncommittally, "Just follow this set of plans."

"I will arrange it well."

Neither of the two big lawyers had any accidents about this. For ordinary people, "taking the blame" might be a very strange and disturbing term.

But for big figures, for gangs, taking the blame is as common as eating with whom.

Whether it is the truth, it doesn't matter at all. People just want to see blood, not the truth.

Someone received due punishment because of their approach, the judiciary gained people's awe because of the trial, and the victims also got comfort because of the result, that's enough.

No one cares if the person who held the knife and stabbed into the girl's body is a bright social political celebrity, or that "home intruder" who is about to go to jail.

Lanse asked Aierwen and Bodun to ask if anyone was willing to take the blame, 2,000 dollars a year, settled once a year, can be given to the family, or can be settled at one time when released from prison.

He will also ask Lawyer Luo Ben to arrange it, absolutely not suffering in prison, nor being bullied, everything will be arranged properly.

As soon as the news came out, Lanse originally felt that maybe not many people would sign up, after all, this took away five years of freedom from others, but unexpectedly, there were so many people!

2,000 dollars a year is equal to 200 dollars a month.

Many people have never saved 2,000 dollars in their lives, but now they have it after sitting in jail for a year!

And sitting for five years!

After five years, you can get 10,000 dollars, which is already equal to the money many people can earn in a lifetime!

For a time, the people who responded had to line up to compete for these few places...
