Marshall paused. "Are you going to divorce Keegan?"

Stella did not know what to say.

'I wouldn't want you to be my lawyer if I was really going to do that? She thought to herself.

"Not for me, but for my mom."

Stella briefly told Marshall about what had happened between Rainee and Albert before she brought up

the divorce settlement from seven years ago.

She said, "Mr. Moore, is it possible for my mom to get back the allocated property to her seven years

ago if she divorces my father now?"

"It's very difficult," Marshal replied.

Suddenly, Stella’s heart sank.

"The divorce papers were signed, yet none of the relevant procedures was executed. Besides, you told

me that your father holds the majority shares of the Jewell Group, and he had been paying for your

mom's medical expenses ever since she was admitted to the hospital. Legally speaking, he fulfilled his

duty as a husband as he took care of his wife. So, it's going to be very difficult if you want him to give

up all his possessions."

"What about the evidence of him cheating?"

Marshall replied, "It could be proof of their marriage breaking down, and the judge will act accordingly

in the favor of your mother while dividing the property. However, it's not going to be enough for your

father to give up on everything. As I said, he has been paying your mother's medical bills, and there's

no way that you can win this lawsuit if his lawyer holds on to this."

Stella frowned and said in a slightly angry manner, "Isn't the marriage law supposed to protect both

husband and wife? Why is it protecting the interests of the wrongdoer now?"

Marshall gazed downward and said after a while, "Sometimes, even the law can't be absolutely fair."

Stella shut her eyes and held her finger against the corner of her eye. Then, she said after keeping

quiet for a while, "I’m sorry, Mr. Moore. I wasn't angry at you."

"It's fine. I've engaged in a lot of divorce lawsuits, and I've seen worse than what your mother is going

through." Then, Marshall continued, "The only way to work this out is to make Albert Jewell withdraw

himself from the property settlement willingly."

"A person like him would never do that."

"So, what your mother did was actually very impressive. You can do the same thing too."

Stella shook her head. "My mom collected those evidence and forced him to sign the papers. There's

just no way that he wouldn't destroy the evidence after my mom got into that accident. And, I'm pretty

sure that he has already patched up his mistakes long ago."

"Not necessarily." Marshall said, "According to what you said, Albert Jewell is a greedy and

unscrupulous man who would always put his personal

interest first. Even though he tried to rectify the mistakes he made back then out of fear, it doesn't

necessarily mean that he wouldn't commit the same mistake again. A person's nature is very hard to

change."

"I've thought about that too, but I don't work in the Jewell Group. So, there's no way I can look through

the company's account book.”

Rainee had full control over the company back then, so she was very familiar with its accounts. It was

nothing but a piece of cake for her to expose what he did. But, it was different for Stella as she did not

even know where the account of the company was, let alone find the evidence of Albert committing a

crime."

Marshall thought for a while and said, "Do you have the numbers of the Jewell Group's ex-employees?"

Stella thought of the notebook in Rainee's safe and said, "Yeah, I do."

"Send them to me, and I'll try talking to them. Maybe they'll tell me something you don't know if they are

on your mother's side."

His words woke Stella up, and she said, "Why didn't I think of that?"

'Albert fired many senior employees in the company after what happened to my mom, and at least one

or two of them would know some secrets, right?' Stella thought.

She then added, "Please give me a moment. I'll look for the numbers and send them to you."

Marshal replied, "It's fine. Let's meet up in a while. Didn't you say that you still have the evidence that

your mother collected seven years ago? Bring them along, so I can see if any of them can still be

useful."
