After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 1016 - 539: Troublemaking for No Reason (Part 2)

This time to find Han Shipei's parents in her hometown, it was his cousin who went.

Because the matter is significant, before obtaining Han Shipei's personally written letter of forgiveness, his cousin temporarily stayed there.

Among the five victims, he has already obtained three letters of forgiveness, spending over two million in compensation for this. The largest amount he spent was one million to obtain the letter of forgiveness from the other party, while the cheapest cost was seventy thousand.

If Han Shipei's parents were really helpful, he might really only need twenty thousand to get Han Shipei's letter of forgiveness, which would undoubtedly be the cheapest.

Unfortunately, he increased the amount to forty thousand this time for Han Shipei, but she still wouldn't relent, making it somewhat difficult for him.

And the other female victim, because she's an orphan, disappeared somewhere under a hidden identity after being harmed by his son, not only can he not contact her, but even the police haven't been able to contact her until now.

So, speaking about it, there's only Han Shipei's letter of forgiveness left, and it's extremely crucial.

In total, five victims, three letters of forgiveness obtained, two victims remaining, one whom the police can't find, and just Han Shipei left.

If he can obtain Han Shipei's letter of forgiveness, four combined would truly have legal efficacy, enabling maximum sentence reduction for his son, and if handled well, even half of the sentence could be reduced.

In cases like this of severe nature, normally the sentence starts at ten years, and since there are five victims, it would definitely result in heavier punishment, and it's possible it could go above twenty years.

But with the victims' letters of forgiveness, coupled with prominent remorse for the crime, handled properly, the most would be a seven or eight-year sentence, and then with good behavior in prison, possibly getting out in five or six years or even less.

Now he's calling his cousin to tell him to continue to coerce and tempt Han Shipei's parents, offering up to fifty thousand.

Of course, Pan Dongliang doesn't take Wu Mengting's warning before departure seriously.

Although Chen Feng is the boss of some film company, just from his Mandarin accent, it's easy to discern he's not a local from Xiu Zhou, and including Wu Mengting, it's easy to hear they're not locals either.

So, of course, Pan Dongliang wouldn't care much.

Pan Dongliang is a native of Xiu Zhou, who started doing business at a young age, struggled for over twenty years to amass his current fortune worth billions; although his network locally is not invulnerable, he has quite a few friends both in legal and gray areas, including some influential ones.

Therefore, he really doesn't have to fear young outsiders like Chen Feng meddling.

...

When Han Shipei finally decided to call her dad, before she could start refusing to cooperate with Pan Dongliang, her dad tried to persuade her again to write the letter of forgiveness.

"Girl, it's not that dad is greedy for money, it's just that the other party is offering too much this time; he promised fifty thousand to our family. That's fifty thousand, you know. When dad's business lost money back in the day, he only owed tens of thousands; yet our family hasn't recovered since.

Dad knows you're wronged and suffering, but this is fifty thousand. Your mom is not well, she always needs medicine, and just the monthly medication costs more than a thousand, not to mention hospital check-ups from time to time, and should her condition deteriorate needing more money in the future.

Also, they said if you don't write the letter of forgiveness, they'll sue me and your mom tomorrow; I'm not afraid, but your mom isn't healthy, she's timid and can't bear the scare — what if she gets startled to illness? You're her only child, she had a hard time raising you; when you were born, her health was not suitable because of her heart disease, the doctor even advised her to terminate the pregnancy, but she insisted on having you; when giving birth, she almost died..."

"Dad, stop it." Even though her dad had said these many times over the years, each time he says it, she can't help but feel softhearted and accommodating.

"Dad, I'll give you the fifty thousand; I already gave you twenty thousand before. The next thirty thousand, I'll definitely give it to you by year-end. Please talk it through with mom. The assurance you both signed with them before is invalid; there's no reason to pay ten times more, and it's impossible to have only received fifty thousand, yet compensate two hundred thousand. If they want to demand compensation or sue, let them; you and mom really don't have to worry too much, don't be intimidated by them."

"Where do you get so much money? The twenty thousand you wired to us before, you said it was advanced from the company; how could there be such a generous company? Tell dad honestly, are you being kept by some big boss?"

"No! How could that be?" Han Shipei immediately denied, both embarrassed and annoyed.

"Ah! It's all because mom and dad aren't capable, you've been wronged these years. If you really were kept by a big boss, dad wouldn't blame you, dad and mom just hope you can live happily and well."

Han Shipei felt touched yet awkward and angry hearing this, she loudly refuted: "I'm not, don't guess wildly. The twenty thousand before was truly advanced by the company; my boss values me highly, she's a woman, that's why she advanced me that much. Plus, I will surely earn big money soon. Anyway, before the year's end, I'll definitely wire you the thirty thousand."

"It's not that dad doesn't believe you, but they are offering fifty thousand cash just for your letter of forgiveness, won't you really regret not accepting it? This money is basically free, losing it is a pity. After all, their son has harmed you, our family asking for compensation is quite normal, at most writing a few words."

"Dad, please stop. I will never forgive that beast of a son of his," Han Shipei gritted her teeth, "Don't worry, starting next month, I'll wire at least one thousand to the family every month. By year-end, I'll gather thirty thousand for the family."

"Ah! Dad isn't stubborn about the money, it's just the family's situation you understand..."

"Dad, I know it all. I'll work hard and repay you. You don't have to worry about being sued; they won't win. Talk it through with mom. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."

"Ah! Alright, I'll talk to your mom; take good care of yourself over there in Xiu Zhou, don't wrong yourself."

"Got it. Take care of yourself and mom."

...

After hanging up the phone, a sense of powerlessness enveloped Han Shipei, she even felt a bit indifferent to life.

These years her family has been draining her, most of the hard-earned money has gone to her parents, but she's willing, as her parents only have her, their only child, and they doted on her since childhood.

But sometimes she still can't help feeling wronged and helpless, perhaps this is the sorrow of the original family.
