This line of litigation... after the constitutive elents of fraud beca ineffective, the desired outco could still be achieved by approaching it from another angle.
If the 1.08 million betrothal gift is categorized as personal property, it can be legally recovered.
If the other party insists on not returning it, their actions could constitute the cris of refusing to execute a judgnt and embezzlent.
Should it co to that, not only would repaynt be enforced, but they could also face imprisonnt due to aggravated offenses.
"By the way, Lawyer Qi, I have another issue I’d like to consult you about. Is there any legal thod to sever the father-son relationship with my son?"
Wan Zhongyuan then took a deep breath, his face etched with conflict as he asked.
Yesterday, when he sought advice from Qin Mu, he had inadvertently learned about the outrageous actions of his rebellious son.
This sent him into a rage.
He casually picked up a walking stick and went to find his son.
Following a "cordial and friendly" exchange between father and son, Wan Zhongyuan, leveraging his absolute advantage, thrashed his son until he was rolling on the ground, continuously begging for rcy.
But his rebellious son, no matter what, was unwilling to divorce and even more unwilling to sever ties with Wen Le!
What was more outrageous was that Wen Le actually showed up that day and even moved into their house!
She said their family had accepted the 1.08 million betrothal gift and wouldn’t ask for more money.
But I don’t believe a single word of it! With a mother whose values are so warped and a brother who only knows how to take, Wen Le can’t be much better! If I really accept her as my daughter-in-law, my hard-earned money will be drained sooner or later!
But no matter how he persuaded him, Wan Feizhang was as if bewitched, simply refusing to divorce!
Gritting his teeth, he imdiately declared he would sever their father-son relationship. He would no longer provide Wan Feizhang with any financial support, nor did he need Wan Feizhang to support him in his old age.
Burdened with such a son and such "in-laws," he could only choose to protect his own interests.
"Sever the father-son relationship?" Qi ZhaoYu was stunned for a mont, glancing at Wan Zhongyuan.
In his many years of practice, he had rarely seen a father-son relationship deteriorate to such a degree.
"It has to be severed; that family looks like trouble..." Wan Zhongyuan sighed, his face full of helplessness.
I figure, as long as I make my stance clear and stop providing my son with any financial support, the Wen Le family will soon realize what a good-for-nothing he is. At that point, it won’t even matter if my sycophantic son is unwilling to divorce; Wen Le herself will take the initiative to ask for one. These ’in-laws,’ who bring their entire family along for the marriage, are truly more than I can handle.
"Legally, there is no such concept as severing a father-son relationship." Qi ZhaoYu shook his head with a hint of resignation, explaining earnestly, "A father-son relationship is based on blood ties. Since no legal statute defines its existence, it cannot be dissolved by legal statutes either."
In old TV dramas, there were often scenes of severing father-son relationships. So even put on a show of hiring a law firm to sign a severance agreent.
In reality, such an agreent would be invalid.
The father-son relationship, based on kinship and blood ties, is indivisible.
When children are young, parents have the duty to raise them. When parents are old, children also have the duty to provide for them.
Regardless of the reason, these obligations are unbreakable and must be fulfilled.
In fact, in legal terms, the marital relationship is often considered to hold a higher standing than kinship through blood. This is because it’s based on a contract ford between two individuals with no prior blood or familial ties, making it more robust.
Similarly, instances where siblings turn against each other or fathers and sons beco enemies occur more frequently, yet the law cannot always provide a just resolution for such cases.
Conversely, marital relationships are regulated in great detail by law. They can be ford and dissolved, and involve rights such as property division.
"If you want to cut off his financial support, you just need to complete a personal property notarization. This will delineate your personal assets from any marital common property."
Qi ZhaoYu then explained another legally viable thod in detail.
Legally, the concept isn’t limited to marital common property; familial common property also exists.
This ans that Wan Zhongyuan’s current property doesn’t belong solely to him.
Strictly speaking, it belongs to every mber of his three-person family.
Even his son is entitled to a certain share of the family property.
This is the legal basis for why parents can provide the money for the betrothal gift.
A portion of this money is also considered to belong to the children.
Of course, if property delineation and notarization are perford, confirming that his son has made no contribution to Wan Zhongyuan’s assets, then the nature of his personal property can be established.
This personal property would then belong solely to him.
After his son becos an adult, he has no obligation to provide him with financial assistance.
"Then let’s quickly get the property delineation and notarization done!" Wan Zhongyuan took a deep breath, feeling quite agitated.
Now that Wen Le has already moved in, I must make these preparations quickly to avoid further trouble and secure my personal property. Dealing with ’in-laws’ like these, I’m constantly at risk of losing my family and fortune!
...
「Jin City. An upscale residential complex. The Wan residence.」
"Lele, your mom finally agreed to our marriage! This is truly wonderful."
Wan Feizhang sat in a wheelchair, looking blissfully at Wen Le, who was by the bedside.
His face was currently bruised, and his arms also bore nurous marks left by the walking stick.
He felt occasional twinges of pain.
But ever since Wen Le had appeared, all he felt was imnse sweetness.
