She looked pale. How could she have allowed Cheng Zhimin to deliberately kill her? Just because she fell in love with her son, she was going to drag all her relatives and friends into hell together.
Director Xiao was called in by the big boss to talk over and over again. The big boss would not care who was the lawyer who specifically implemented the project. He would only think that this was Xiao Junhua's dereliction of duty and her inability to take care of her lawyers. Similarly, if the matter is exposed,
, the outside world, clients, and peers will only say that it was Hongzheng Law Firm’s dereliction of duty, and that it was the incompetence of Hongzheng Law Firm’s M&A team that led to such a major mistake, causing the client to lose hundreds of millions. The trust of the outside world and clients was lost, Director Xiao.
Once you bear this reputation, the foundation of your career that you have worked so hard to build will be destroyed, and it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the industry in the future.
Shu Tinglan was sitting in Director Xiao's office, listening to Director Xiao's phone calls that kept coming in all the time.
A colleague with whom I have good connections called to ask for news.
Director Xiao's reputation in the industry is obvious to all. Now that there are rumors like this, many colleagues can't help but rejoice in the misfortune, and even wish that it was true, causing Director Xiao and Hongzheng Law Firm to collapse.
Several old customers also called to ask whether this is true? How could you make such a low-level mistake? This makes it difficult for us to believe you in the future.
Director Xiao explained that this matter is still under investigation. She has confidence in her professional abilities and even more confidence in her team members.
Even in such a distressed time, Director Xiao still defended Shu Tinglan, and she never even cursed Shu Tinglan from the beginning to the end of this incident.
Later, she simply stopped answering the phone, and Zhou Ming's cell phone kept ringing, exactly the same as Director Xiao.
Shu Tinglan just listened so quietly, with all his emotions intertwined, including self-blame, guilt, and pain.
She walked out with her cell phone and dialed Cheng Zhimin's number. After one ring, she hung up. After five or six more calls, Cheng Zhimin's cold voice came.
:"What's up?"
"What do you want to do?" When Shu Tinglan asked this, her voice was trembling, and the hand holding the phone was shaking. Compared to her anger and excitement, Cheng Zhimin on the other end was still indifferent.
; "What do I want to do? You know. Shu Tinglan, I gave you a chance. This is the price you pay for your ignorance. Oh, by the way, don't go to Yu'an to complain. It's useless. Since I'm leaving here
The first step is to be ready to sever the mother-child relationship with him. With a family background like yours, you cannot understand the importance of family glory to us. For this, we can give up everything."
After Cheng Zhimin finished speaking, he hung up the phone without mercy.
Family glory? Is it really that important? Can it be higher than family ties? Can you ruin other people's lives at will?
Yes, Shu Tinglan couldn't understand it, only the huge stone in his heart was getting heavier and heavier.
She returned to Director Xiao's office first,
Promise: "I will be responsible." This is the only thing she can do, stand up bravely and take responsibility.
Director Xiao raised his head and gave her a cold look.
: "Are you responsible? Can you afford 50 million to accompany me or can you afford to compensate for the loss of my reputation?"
