The company was sealed, and the house had its foreclosure notice posted by the bank.
Lin Yishan is now living in a private club that Lin Jiale had managed before his death.
This private club, because it was established under the guise of charity by Lin Jiale with independently funded resources, could not be sealed by the bank.
Rich people engaging in charity, so truly have good intentions, others, not so much.
Now thinking about it, Lin Yishan finds it rather amusing. Wealthy people, after all, are wealthy. For poor people like Gu Nuan, who wish to topple her and strip her of everything, it isn’t so simple.
Look, she still has money now.
The Lin Family’s company, once the bankruptcy was settled and the debts written off, had nothing to do with her, Lin Yishan. She as Jiale’s daughter, didn’t have the legal obligation to pay off the debts her father left behind.
On the contrary, Lin Jiale exploited a legal loophole to leave her substantial real assets. Perhaps, acquiring these assets required so maneuvering, but she wouldn’t be hindered from ultimately obtaining them.
The doorbell of the club rang.
The visitor was the lawyer, Lawyer Zhong, who helped Lin Yishan handle Lin Jiale’s affairs, and who was hired by Lin Jiale during his lifeti.
A middle-aged man with graying hair and black glasses. Lin Yishan was both unfamiliar and familiar with Lawyer Zhong. She knew he had always been her father’s personal lawyer, but she rarely had the chance to et and speak with him.
Lawyer Zhong was said to be a prominent attorney with nurous clients and an extrely busy schedule.
When Lin Yishan saw him, she called him Uncle Zhong.
She opened the door for Lawyer Zhong.
Lawyer Zhong walked in, a black briefcase tucked under his arm.
Lin Yishan poured him a glass of water.
He wiped the sweat beads on his forehead with a blue handkerchief and took the glass of water from Lin Yishan, asking, "Have people been bothering you again recently?"
Previously, so creditors, upon learning about the existence of this club owned by Lin Jiale, spared no effort in coming here to collect debts. It frightened Lin Yishan, who was staying there. After telling Lawyer Zhong, no one ca up here in just a couple of days.
This demonstrated the extent of Lawyer Zhong’s capabilities.
Lin Yishan nodded to him and said gratefully, "Thanks to Uncle Zhong, otherwise, I wouldn’t know what to do."
"Sit down, I have brought sothing for you to see," Lawyer Zhong told her.
Lin Yishan sat down.
Lawyer Zhong then opened his briefcase and took out a docunt that looked like a will.
Lin Yishan took it sowhat puzzled, thinking that she had already received her father Lin Jiale’s will from Lawyer Zhong before.
"This is sothing your mother left behind," Lawyer Zhong said. "Mr. Lin stated if he were to pass away before you, and of course, he is older than you, this day was bound to co, then this docunt should be left for you."
Hearing that it was left by her biological mother, Lin Yishan quickly opened it to see what was inside. What she saw shocked her: negative assets!
"This—" Lin Yishan looked suspiciously at Lawyer Zhong.
"That’s right, your dad managed to succeed initially because of your mom’s financial support. They were forced to divorce later, and your mom’s forced suicide was certainly linked to the negative assets she later accumulated," he explained.
This revelation implied that her mother’s family went bankrupt thereafter?
"Yes, not only did they go bankrupt, but your maternal grandfather and grandmother both committed suicide," he added.
Lin Yishan had never heard such a story and was stunned.
"Mr. Lin always refrained from telling you for fear of stirring up trouble," Lawyer Zhong explained.
