Sasha came back to her rental apartment three hours later. She was at a law firm to inquire aboutcustody issues regarding her eldest son. But the woman was devastated when the lawyer told herflat out that the chances of her getting custody of lan were zero. Her dead identity in governmentarchives being the first obstacle. Secondly, the party that she was up against was just too powerfulfor her to gain any foothold before a judge. / could deal with the first problem by restoring myidentity and then divorcing that scum. Since our hatred for each other is mutual, that shouldn't bedifficult to achieve. But the second problem is just driving me mad! With Hayes Corporation nowranking among the top ten companies in the world, I'll never have the same backing as he does to winthis case. Sasha dragged her tiresome body into her rental apartment.“Mommy, you're finally home! Uncle Solomon is here, and he's bought us lots of stuff!” Thedelighted voice came from Vivian, who ran toward her mother with a lollipop in her hand. Matteo,on the other hand, seemed to be having a great time talking to Solomon. Solomon was Sasha'sgood friend. They had known each other when they were abroad a long time ago. Sasha gatheredherself and walked over to greet Solomon, “Hello there. Did the kids call you up again? Youshouldn't have given in to them. You live so far away!” “That's alright. I actually came here on myown accord to visit the kids. It had been a while since I last saw them. Even less so after you cameback,” Solomon replied. Solomon was a lawyer.Bespectacled, he exuded a pleasant and polite bearing that always managed to make peoplearound him feel at ease. Sasha stole a glance at the clutters around the house and instantly feltembarrassed. “I'm sorry about the messiness, Solomon. You see, I didn't expect a guest...” Sasha saidapologetically. “Don't be ridiculous. I'm not a stranger.” Solomon gave a faint smile and said, “By theway, Matt was telling me that you were out to see a patient. Is the patient feeling better now?” “Er...”Solomon's unexpected question took Sasha by surprise as she fumbled for the right words. / havejust managed to turn off that bloody switch! "His condition was beyond medical help. Forget abouthim!” the woman grunted. In the next moment, something seemed to have struck Sasha as shespoke, “That's right! I almost forget that you're a lawyer too.Mind if I pick your brain for a minute? If a couple is getting divorced, does the party with extremewealth always get custody of their kids?” “Hmm, custody?” Solomon sat back down elegantly on thesmall couch. His gaze stopped momentarily on Sasha before he calmly replied, “Yes, almost always.”Instantly, Sasha's hopes were shattered. Solomon was amused by the deflated look on Sasha's faceas he continued to explain, “Having said that, there are exceptions to it. Although having enoughmoney is important, the law dictates that under certain circumstances, the less wealthy party canovertake custody of their children.” “Is this true?” Sasha's face instantly lit up as if seeing hope forthe first time. *That's right. For example, if the guardian has caused physical harm to the kid or engaged in criminalactivities. These are just some of the examples. Do you know someone who's in suchcircumstances?” Solomon asked out of curiosity after explaining in detail to Sasha. He was not oneto pry, but this was the first time Sasha had sought legal opinion on that kind of matter from him.Hence, Solomon thought that was a little odd. However, Sasha was not ready to confide in him. Soshe simply replied, “Oh, it's just a friend of mine. She's getting a divorce, but her husband iswithholding their kid. So, I just thought I might be able to help her out by seeking some legalopinions on her behalf.” Solomon smiled in acknowledgment.Meanwhile, Matteo, who had been eavesdropping on the adults’ conversation, was in completeshock. His jaw dropped when he heard the word “custody.” Custody! I wonder what's on Mommy'smind. Is she thinking about taking over lan’s custody? If that's the case, itd be awesome to have lancoming to live with us. Mommy and the three of us will then form a complete family of four! As forbad Daddy... There were twinkles in Matteo’s eyes as an idea took form in his cunning little mind. Hethen looked across the living room at Solomon, who had been stealing glances at his mother, andsaid, “Uncle Solomon, since Mommy doesn't know anything about this custody issue, why don't youtake her out and teach her what to do?” “Teach her?” Solomon was puzzled. “Yes, Uncle Solomon. Ithink you should take her over to your place and tell her what to do in detail. I'll look after Vivi athome, so don't you worry about us,” Matteo eagerly suggested. Since Daddy is in love with the meanwoman, I should replace Mommy a boyfriend too. She is such a nice person, so there's no way men willreject her.
