Chapter 1180
Winnie walked aimlessly down the street for a long time and finally stood under Star Ferry Technology.
She looked up at the building and the sunlight refracted onto the glass, shaking her eyes a little.
Winnie stood downstairs for a while, and seeing that it was almost noon, she went to the restaurant next door and packed food.
When she arrived at Channing's office, he was still in a meeting and had not returned.
Winnie put the packed food on the coffee table and nestled into the couch, flipping through the itinerary her assistant had sent her.
Next week I have to enter the film of Director Aarav, in fact, there are quite a lot of related work to deal with.
After Winnie went through the itinerary, she thought about it and called Donald again, wanting advice about paying Halle alimony.
The phone rang for a long time, and it was answered by Daphne Aldrich.
It was quiet on Daphne Aldrich's end, she covered the receiver and said, "Ms. Truman, Attorney Shen is in court now, what can I do for you."
Winnie paused: "Nothing's going on, I'll call him later."
Daphne Aldrich added, "I'll have him get back to you later when his trial is over."
"Okay, thanks."
After hanging up the phone, Winnie searched the Internet for the relevant legal provisions herself.
Just as she was looking at it, the office door opened.
Channing Dao looked at her and twitched his eyebrows, "When did you get here."
Behind him, the assistant sagely closed the door and left.
Winnie put away put away: "Just arrived a while ago, I bought some food downstairs, have you eaten lunch."
Channing walked over, "No."
Winnie opened the paper bag and opened the food box: "That's just right, you should eat, it's been a while since we bought it, it will get cold if you don't eat it."
Channing sat next to her, "You went to my sister's studio this morning?"
Winnie nodded gently. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
"What is it?"
"It's just a little work stuff." Winnie said, "I'm at least one of the three major shareholders, so there's a lot to discuss with your sister."
Channing said, "Finished discussing?"
"Pretty much." Winnie handed him the unwrapped chopsticks, "Do you have meetings until this late every day."
It's a little past that now.
Channing raised a hand and pinched his brow bone, "And not every day."
Although Star Ferry Technology had a new head to accept after Cheng Wei left, it was stagnant for three years, and there were many projects to redo, which inevitably required a lot of human and material resources.
And they are not something that can be dealt with in a short period of time.
Winnie said, "I trust you to get this done in the fastest possible time."
Channing raised his eyes to meet her gaze, "Trust me that much?"
"Of course, there are just endless possibilities when you're young."
At that, the corners of Channing's lips curved.
Winnie watched the change of expression on his face, and didn't know where to think of, and shoved the food box in his hand, "Eat first, eat before you have the strength to continue working."
Channing asked her, "Don't you know."
Winnie said, "I ate a little fruit, I had an interview this afternoon and couldn't eat too much."
"What interview."
"It's the media that's working with the theater over there, doing interviews with the characters of the play, and it's just about me."
Winnie said, looking at the time, "I have to go over there now, so you eat first."
She had just gotten up when Channing took her wrist and looked up at her, "What time does it end."
"Not sure yet, still have to do makeup photos, how all have to be five or six o'clock."
"I'll pick you up when it's over."
"Let's talk about it, I'll send you a message then."
"Good."
When Winnie arrived at the underground parking lot, the assistant and driver were already waiting there. The assistant waved at her and shouted in a low voice, "Winnie, over here."
On her way to the theater, Winnie received a phone call from Donald Shawn.
Donald said, "I heard from Daphne that you were looking for me?"
Winnie gripped the phone and answered softly, but didn't know how to speak.
Donald added: "Let's do it this way, I just finished the trial, and there is nothing to do in the afternoon, I'll come to you, we'll talk face to face."
"OK, I'll give you the address."
Winnie arrived at the theater and was putting on her makeup when Donald and Daphne arrived.
Daphne Aldrich stood at the dressing room door and poked half her body in, "Hello."
When Winnie's assistant and make-up artist saw that she had something to do, they made an excuse to go out.
Daphne Aldrich also said to Donald, "I'll wait for you outside."
Winnie said, "That's okay, you can come in with me."
Daphne sniffed and followed Donald, closing the door behind her.
Donald just finished his lawsuit, his body is still wearing a suit that can't be decent, the bridge of his nose on a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, how to look at the image of an ascetic elite man.
I do not know how many little girls can be charmed.
He sat down and looked to Winnie: "My gut tells me you shouldn't be looking for me for anything good."
Winnie: "......"
"It's really not a good thing."
She swivels her chair to face Donald and Daphne : "I have a legal question I need advice on."
"Say it."
Winnie pursed her lips: "I ...... was nine years old when my parents divorced, my mother remarried abroad, these twenty years, she has never returned to City N, and contact with me is only a handful, but she is now back, asking me to pay her eight hundred million alimony. "
Daphne Aldrich sniffed and stood up in shock: "Eight hundred million!"
Winnie nods gently.
Donald asks, "Are you sure this is for alimony and not extortion?"
Winnie smiled lightly, "So this is not to come to you."
Donald said, "Under Marriage Law No. 36, and Civil Code No. 1169, children are obligated to support their parents even when they are divorced, but this ......"
Winnie said, "She said she checked my assets and said I had invisible assets."
Donald and Daphne both fall silent, wondering once again whether this is an offer of alimony or blackmail.
He said, "What do you think now."
"Sue, and pay as the law decrees."
"In your case, if you can prove that after your parents' divorce, your source of livelihood has been your father's side, and that your mother did not pay any of your living expenses or have any financial dealings, the alimony will not be much."
"It doesn't matter how much, I don't want her to use it to interrupt my life again."
Daphne Aldrich said, "Actually, this thing ...... if she's really after the money, then even if the court awards it and you pay alimony, but if she doesn't get as much as she wants, it's not going to end."
Donald also said, "The law can only render judgments, it cannot deal with such family matters."
He paused: "Why don't ...... you just talk to Channing about it and see how it works out."
Winnie: "......?"
How did they know too.
Daphne Aldrich also nodded: "Yes, this could be social news."
