Chapter 377: Weaving Fairy Tales (Part 1)
The smart people present fell into deep thought because of Jack’s story, and Mike was the first to ask a question.
“But the problem is, the story of Charlie and Yvonne itself is not lacking in topicality. How should we create enough reversal?”
Jack looked at Harvey with a smile. The scene where he took the initiative to cover up for Yifang in court to prevent her from being found in contempt of court by the judge and possibly being detained is still vivid in her mind.
"Attorney Mr. Spector, may I ask if Yifang is beautiful?"
Harvey was embarrassed. Fortunately, his many years as a lawyer had allowed him to develop a thick skin that was bulletproof. He was stunned for a moment, then nodded calmly.
"Ms. Biasi is the gentlest lady I have ever seen."
Jack mercilessly exposed his mercy in court.
“Since even a gentleman like you would be impressed by Yifang, it would be reasonable to think that there would be an unknown rich man who covets Yifang’s beauty and wants to take advantage of her, right?”
His words made everyone stunned. They began to combine the inspiration he mentioned before, and they had probably guessed his idea.
"Here's my plan." Jack said, taking out a check folder and handing it to reporter Dupree.
"Here is a bearer bond, the amount is one hundred thousand dollars, please Mr. Dupree to publish a statement in the New York Post tomorrow.
Just say that there is an unknown person The famous rich man proposed that as long as the infamous Charlie Lang takes the initiative to have sex with the beautiful Yi Ms. Fang Biasi can obtain this bearer bond if she breaks up
Of course, the prerequisite is that a formal statement is also published in the New York Post."
Dupu. Li took the check folder in surprise, and before he could say anything, Jack continued.
"You can write whatever you want about the specific content. If you have enough space, you can exaggerate the unknown rich man's love for Yifang and make it as disgusting as possible."
"Listen to what you mean, you It seems that there is no intention to tell Charlie and Yvonne the truth in advance, what if Charlie really chooses money?" Harvey's assistant Mike questioned.
"This is a bet that tests their kindness and love. Isn't it too cruel?" Aunt Didi also expressed the same view.
The bald Frank, who had been standing by silently and seemingly not paying attention to the matter at all, seemed to suddenly become interested.
“I bet you that one hundred thousand yuan will be wasted, but this bet is very interesting, why not count me in.”
"Count me in too." Wesley also came to join in the fun. He is a real rich second generation.
Harvey thought for a moment and said, "Count me in. As a lawyer, I can also notarize the statement of this anonymous rich man."
Mike next to him was a little surprised. "Aren't you worried that the firm will cause trouble for you? Although it can be explained by personal behavior, they are still worried that it will affect the reputation of the firm."
Jack looked at Harvey thoughtfully and reminded. , "Although there will eventually be a clarification, given that you were once the plaintiff's lawyer, if Charlie really chooses to give up his relationship with Yvonne, you are likely to be regarded as an accomplice who added fuel to the flames."
Harvey With a free and easy smile, he leaned his body on the sofa and crossed his legs, as if he had gained some kind of relief.
"What I sacrificed is only my temporary reputation. If you lose the bet, I won't lose anything. Instead, I will increase my exposure.
But if you win the bet, I will not only gain exposure, I can also gain a good reputation. The public will forget what I have done before and regard me as a conscientious and capable lawyer. This is a win-win situation. I win twice."
Just like all lawyers. Not a fuel-efficient lamp.
After listening to Jack's plan for the aftermath, everyone agreed that they might as well give it a try. Anyway, there is no better way at the moment. Maybe this deviant move will work wonders. Jack explained the follow-up matters, and everyone dispersed. The old Hunters and the bald man Frank returned to the town of Cold Spring on the Hudson River.
It's not that they can't afford to live in the Plaza Hotel, but they have already seen the bustling elderly people, and they obviously prefer the tranquility of the small town.
The hard-working reporter Dupree went back to work on the story overnight, while Jack went to take over Hannah's surveillance mission. There will be a series of subsequent operations that require some necessary guidance and design.
That night, New York residents were surprised to find that the New York Post, which is famous for its eye-catching headlines, was in trouble again.
The front page headlines of other newspapers were either "Police and Waitress Lose in Lawsuit" or "Charlie and Yvonne Going Bankrupt".
Only the New York Post's headline is, "Choose!" Money or love? 》, which makes people feel baffled.
There was very little content under the title. After Dupree compiled a confession from an unknown wealthy man that could be called harassment, it was the statement designed by Jack.
The statement was divided into two paragraphs. In addition to offering $100,000 as bait to ask Charlie to leave Yvonne, lawyer Harvey Specter also issued a statement to defend the authenticity of the bearer bond. Make a guarantee.
For a time, the entire New York City citizens were caught up in crazy discussions. No one paid attention to lottery winnings, divorce and other messy things.
Everyone was discussing whether the policeman, who was once known for his integrity and trustworthiness, would dump the waitress for $100,000. There were even bookmakers preparing to make bets on this.
The Internet has gone completely crazy, and all kinds of so-called "insider information" that are true and false are popping up all the time.
In fact, it is not only the FBI that can easily find out the details of a person. In the Internet era, it only takes a short day. Under the deliberate manipulation of some people, public opinion on local social networks begins to ferment rapidly.
Just now someone claimed to be a classmate of Charlie Lang and Muriel Lang and described how they met and got married. Then someone claimed to be their neighbor and gave a decent description. How Muriel squandered the bonus after receiving it.
Then another so-called neighbor appeared and exposed the fact that after Charlie won the lottery, he had invited office workers who commuted in the evening to take the subway for free. Countless people immediately appeared in the following posts, saying I got a free subway ticket that day.
Then someone soon exposed what kind of scumbag Yvonne’s ex-husband Eddie Biasi was, how he was doing nothing and even shamelessly came back to pester him after hearing that his ex-wife had received an unexpected fortune. Yifang was forced to run away from home.
An eyewitness said conclusively that he saw Charlie being kicked out of the house by his wife. It was his son who suggested to Charlie why he couldn't spend money for himself and enjoy a night in a single suite at the Plaza Hotel. .
Finally, there was a waitress who claimed to be the front desk of the Plaza Hotel, and she swore to prove how Yvonne and Charlie met by chance in the hotel lobby that day, and then she vividly described the scene of their chance encounter.
Such as expressions of surprise, flirtatious eyes, reserved conversations, etc., and she also uniquely noted the approximate time, implying that if someone could get the surveillance video, they could prove what she said. Not empty.
All of this seems to be controlled by a pair of invisible hands, and the only person who knows the truth of all this is busy making phone calls and continuing to make plans.
"He went out secretly? Okay, I understand, don't worry, your partner will be happy."
"Where is Yifang now? Are you going to the coffee shop soon? OK, stare Come on, don’t let anyone else show up, the last thing you need now is an accident.”
"Dupree, you can start putting on your makeup. It's going to rain today. Be careful to use waterproof adhesive to glue your beard on."
After making phone calls, Jack, who was hiding in the car, pinched Holding her hot phone, she sent another message, "You don't need to delete all the negative content. You must keep the particularly fake ones. This kind of thing is sometimes better than the positive content."
It began to rain lightly outside, and Jack turned on the defogging function of the car window. As his vision gradually became clearer, in the night, a pretty figure walked from far to near, pulling out a knife in front of the movable iron fence of "Yifang Coffee Shop" He took the key, opened a gap, and pushed the door open.
Then dim lights came on in the room, and Yifang, who secretly returned to the store, took off her raincoat, took a rag and wiped the tables, shedding tears as she wiped them. From time to time, I wiped away the tears at the corners of my eyes with the back of my hand, but I couldn't wipe them all away.
I wish everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival, family reunion, happiness and good health!
I wish our motherland prosperity, peace and prosperity!
