"Mr. Kong, are you sure you haven’t transferred any marital assets?" Kong Lizhi’s attorney asked.
"Absolutely not." Kong Lizhi’s eyes flickered, unable to look the other in the eye, but feeling confident about the secrecy of those matters, he presented the documents he had brought, "Because of my poor decision-making, the company has indeed been losing money these past two months, and to save the company, I even mortgaged the property to take out a loan. How could I possibly gamble with my future? That woman is definitely slandering me."
Lawyer Liu scrutinized the materials carefully and saw they followed normal procedures, nodding: "Mr. Kong, did you mortgage the property with your wife’s consent?"
"No." Seeing Lawyer Liu frown, Kong Lizhi quickly explained, "I had no choice then, she disappeared with the child, and I couldn’t contact her, and the company’s crisis was imminent, I was too anxious."
Lawyer Liu’s eyes flashed with a sharp light: "So you mean to say that your wife went missing when your business faced a crisis?"
Kong Lizhi, sensing something, nodded gravely: "Yes."
Lawyer Liu reviewed the materials, telling Kong Lizhi: "I understand, Mr. Kong. If there is no concealment in what you have told me, then I will take on your case. However, I must inform you that regardless of whether we win the lawsuit or not, the attorney fees are non-refundable."
