Chapter 440

    Niles closed the door and sat on the sofa. The guest rooms of the governor''s house are much more luxurious than ordinary people''s houses. There are not only bedrooms, separate dressing rooms, but also a reception hall.


    He rubbed his face and buried it between his hands. The whole body was full of decadence. Before he came, he had contacted his family. After all, his wife and children would be worried if he didn''t go back all night. Maybe they wouldn''t worry after a while, because he would stay in prison for a long time, so long that it might be difficult to come out in his life.


    "What should I do?", Niels put down his hands and looked at Kevin in confusion. "What should I do to make the judge sympathize with me?"


    Kevin closed the notebook on the table. He opened the curtain to let more sunlight shine in. "You put the responsibility on Vivian''s brothers. In fact, to put it simply, it is to tell the truth, and then add a little sadness and helplessness. As long as the jury sympathizes with you, they can even think you are innocent."


    Hearing Kevin say this, nells was full of hope. He just got up and prepared to go to Kevin''s side. He felt a little reckless and sat back again. "You''ll help me fight this lawsuit, won''t you?"


    Kevin nodded indifferently, "as long as you can afford the money, you are my boss!"


    "How much is it?"


    "No less than 300000!"


    Nellston, who was full of hope the moment before, fell into the ice cave. The figure of 300000 made him feel that the light had become much weaker. He could not take the money, or he could, but his family would lose their current life. Over the years, the works of art they stole have been sold by private transactions in the Federation for almost $156 million. He and another craftsman each got about more than 400000.


    Almost half of the money was used by him to buy a house and enjoy life, and 200000 were lying in the bank. If he wants to collect 300000 yuan, he must sell his current house and two cars, and sell all expensive luxury goods to collect 300000 yuan. The money is too much for him to pay. More importantly, paying the 300000 doesn''t mean that he can be acquitted. Maybe he just reduces his sentence.


    "Actually... There''s another way you can get rid of the crime, that is to get Mrs. Vivian''s forgiveness!" Kevin took a cigarette and put his elbow on the armrest of the chair. The high backed chair with a big red soft bag stood behind him. His forearms were upright and his fingers were holding cigarettes. It seemed to give people an indescribable visual impact, especially his smile, Neil felt that the red leather on the chair behind him was like flowing blood, full of sin and desire.


    He moved his ass to Kevin, sat at the end of the couch, leaned forward and poked his head, "what should I do?"


    The next court session will be held three days later. During this period, both parties and their lawyers will find more evidence to support their views. Seeing that the third day is coming, Vivian''s two brothers sat together and they discussed the next things.


    The chief defense lawyer of the luxury lawyers told them that they were likely to win the lawsuit this time. These lawyers were excited and flushed. No matter whether the outside world would think that they used collective strength to win Kevin, it was a great victory for them! Once the lawsuit is settled, their value and status will soar. Even if the brothers decided not to pay any lawyer fees, they would gladly represent the case for free.


    "I''ve asked someone to evaluate it. The old man''s things add up to about 30 million.", Vivian''s big brother has always focused on a waitress. The girl is young and beautiful. Unfortunately, she has a cheap job. He doesn''t mind keeping the girl if she wants.


    Vivian''s second brother frowned and asked, "so little? Didn''t we sell $16 million before?"


    Vivian''s big brother took back his eyes, "Alex, you should know that although those old men don''t like those things, it doesn''t mean they are not good things. One stone carving from the age of origin has sold nearly 8 million, which has exceeded the sum of the other 20 pieces! There are no things in the warehouse that can sell so high. Most of them are tens of thousands of things, and there can be three I think it''s great. "


    Alex, Vivian''s second brother, nodded knowingly, "so there''s no problem. Are we selling in the Empire or sending it to the Federation as before?"


    "Of course, it''s sent to the Federation. If it''s sold in the Empire, our face won''t look good. We sell his things as soon as the old man dies. What will others think of us?"


    Alex nodded. He hesitated. "I don''t think my sister will let it go. She will try to get those things back."


    Vivian''s eldest brother, ED, smiled easily. "She? What else can she do besides preaching that she is a feminist? Let those women attack us? If so, I think it''s also a good idea. I really need aggressive women to calm my agitation." he said, patting Alex on the back of his hand, "Don''t worry, she can''t do anything. Just like before, she''s a useless child!"


    As he said this, Ed''s eyes flashed with jealousy and hatred. He recalled what had happened at home when he was a child. The governor doesn''t have so much time to educate them. Their daily life is decided by the governor''s wife. But every time the governor came home, he would severely reprimand the two boys and even beat them up for a little thing. On the contrary, the governor "dotes on Vivian, who is not so honest and obedient in fact.


    From that time on, ed didn''t like the old man. When he grew up, he knew that this was the expression of the old man''s love for him. He hoped to set himself on a successful road by being strict. But understanding is understanding, but hate will not be reduced by half. It''s like someone slapped you and told you it''s for you. Even if it''s true, it can''t be happy, only disgust or hatred.


    The old man pressed them for forty years. How many forty years can a person have? Two? Or one and a half?


    ED has lived in the shadow of the governor all his life. He has had enough. If the old man hadn''t had too many contacts and friends, he might have done something he shouldn''t have done.


    Alex didn''t agree with ED''s contempt. "At least she invited a lawyer named Kevin, who is said to be the best lawyer in the Empire. We should always be careful."


    Ed was no longer careful of his predecessors when the governor was still alive. He raised his head, leaned back in his chair and tilted his legs. With one hand on the back of the chair and the other on the edge of the table, "so what? This is Aldo, our family''s Aldo, not the imperial capital. If there is an accident, just let him disappear."


    "Do you mean to kill him?", Alex''s tone is a little strange. After all, he is engaged in administrative work, far less angry than soldiers like ed. "will this cause trouble?"


    "Trouble? Alex, you''re too careful. Find a place where no one will kill him and burn him outside the city. I don''t believe anyone can find evidence from a pile of ashes to accuse us." he vowed as if he had done such a thing, which made Alex a little better.


    If ed knew a guy named ANP, he might not have this idea. He would not only burn Kevin to ashes, but also put Kevin''s ashes and real ashes into the sea.


    The topic of the two brothers gradually shifted to the woman. At this time, a child with a duck tongue cap and some dry runny nose marks above his lips ran over. He held an envelope in his hand and put it on the table.


    "Gentlemen, someone asked me to give this letter to you..." he said and didn''t leave, but looked forward to the two people.


    Alex found a dollar change from his pocket and gave it to the child. When he looked back, ed had opened the envelope and read the contents. His face became more and more terrible, and finally he tore the letter to pieces!


    "What''s the matter?", Alex looked at the letters torn by ED, bent down to pick them up, and then tried to put the letter back according to the tooth marks on the edge of each fragment.


    Ed didn''t stop him, but lowered his voice and whispered in a voice full of anger, "you''re right, that woman''s watch won''t end like this. You don''t have to look at it. She knows that we stole things from the warehouse with those two fools, and he wants us to withdraw the lawsuit and end the dispute.", "How many things are hanging on the wall?"


    "There are about sixty or seventy pieces... And they are all very good ones!"


    The governor''s house is too big, so more works of art are needed to decorate the governor''s taste and appreciation of art. As the master, the governor can''t hang all those cheap things on the wall, so the big nobles laugh at his shit like artistic taste, so he hangs the best things outside, except those he doesn''t like.


    Although there are only 60 or 70 pieces outside, these 60 or 70 pieces are definitely the most precious in the governor''s collection, and this is also the root of their brothers'' struggle!
