Chapter 3150: The Old Man Who Eats Gigolos
The blond man's voice immediately attracted everyone's attention.
This man looked completely like a Westerner, but he spoke fluent Chinese. He just walked with his nose up in the air, with a look of arrogance and disdain.
When Paul saw this, his face froze and he hurried over. Charlie Wade also walked in front of the man with him.
Paul was about to speak, but Charlie Wade blocked him. He frowned at the other person and asked, "Sir, it's someone else's wedding day, and you're making personal attacks here. Isn't that inappropriate?"
The man didn't know Charlie Wade. Seeing that he was a young man, he didn't take him seriously and said disdainfully, "You should be a relative of the groom, right? Please go back and tell the groom that he is indeed not worthy of my sister-in-law."
Charlie Wade said lightly, "Who is worthy of whom is not for others to say. As long as two people love each other, there is no question of whether they are worthy of each other."
The man looked around and curled his lips and said, "Look at this shabby wedding. It's okay to choose a little-known city like Aurous Hill, but are there any celebrities or politicians among the guests? Are there mayors? Are there councillors? Are there CEOs of well-known local companies? "
Charlie Wade smiled and said, "Of course, the people invited to the wedding are my family and close friends. Why do I need people at the level of the mayor and the councillor? A meeting?"
The man sneered, "Our Smith family is a well-known family in the American judicial community. My sister-in-law is going to remarry now. As half of her family, I should at least make sure that the groom has enough ability to provide her with a worry-free married life, right?"
As he said, he pointed to the simple decorations around and said contemptuously, "The wedding is so shabby, which proves that there is not enough financial strength. There is not even a celebrity among the guests, which proves that there is no strength in terms of connections. If you have no money and no connections, what can you use to guarantee the quality of your married life?"
Paul on the side said at this time, "Uncle Jimmy, today is my mother's big day, you'd better not make trouble here."
"Making trouble?" Jimmy Smith sneered and asked him, "Paul, I heard that your mother was getting married, so I flew over ten hours to congratulate her. How can you say I was making trouble?"
Paul quickly said, "We welcome you to the wedding, but what you just said was really inappropriate."
Jimmy smiled and said, "Paul, did I say anything wrong? Your mother is the co-founder of Smith Law Firm. Your father passed away, so it's normal for her to remarry, but at least she should marry someone of status and position worthy of her, right? Marrying a university professor, or a little-known ordinary university in Aurous Hill, is not even a good thing for Huaxia. If you can't even get into the Top 100, what future can a professor who teaches in such a school have? He's just an old loser."
Paul was a little angry and said, "Uncle Jimmy, Uncle He's marriage to my mother has nothing to do with what he does. This is my mother's own choice. As a son, I have no right to interfere, and outsiders should not make comments, right?"
Jimmy deliberately raised his voice and said coldly, "I don't want to get involved in these trivial matters, but you two left the United States directly and brought all the law firms named after our family surname to China. This kind of approach of leaving without a care in the world is not appropriate, right?"
As soon as these words came out, the guests were all a little surprised.
Seeing this, Paul said angrily, "Uncle Jimmy, although the Smith Law Firm uses the Smith surname as its name, it was completely founded by my father and mother with great effort. As their only child, I have absolute decision-making power over this firm. Do I need your consent to come to China, Uncle Jimmy?"
Jimmy immediately said, "Paul, what you said is too heartless. You don't know how the Smith Law Firm was established, but how could your mother not know? If it weren't for your grandfather's help in providing connections, this law firm would only be a joke! Moreover, Smith's reputation in the American legal industry was built by your grandfather's hard work. Your father and your mother used this name to borrow the power of the Smith family. Moreover, this law firm carries the reputation of the entire Smith family. You can take it away just like that. Is it appropriate?"
Paul wanted to argue, but Charlie Wade stopped him again, turned to look at Jimmy, and said, "Aren't you here to attend the wedding as half of your mother's family? Why did you mention the ownership of the law firm again? Are you here to find fault with something else? What's the real purpose of wanting to take away the shares of Smith Law Firm?"
Jimmy was asked by Charlie Wade to the heart, and his face was a little embarrassed. He said speciously, "The two things are one by one. The matter of shares is an internal matter of our Smith family. We can talk about it after the wedding."
Charlie Wade nodded, "Then it's mainly about the wedding, right?"
"Yes." Jimmy took the opportunity to back off and nodded, saying, "My sister-in-law is the co-founder of Smith Law Firm and is worth more than 100 million US dollars. It's no problem for her to get married, but if the other party has no money and no status, then he is just a gigolo, right? Maybe after a while of marriage, the little property my brother left for my sister-in-law will all be given to him!"
At this time, Han Meiqing and He Yuanjiang, who had been welcoming guests outside, heard the noise inside and hurried in.
Just when she heard Jimmy mocking He Yuanjiang for being a gigolo, Han Meiqing angrily shouted, "Jimmy, if you really want to attend the wedding, stay. If you have other intentions, please leave. I don't want to talk to you about the equity and business issues of the firm today. If you want to talk, let's talk about it tomorrow!"
Jimmy snorted and laughed, "Sister-in-law, you married into our Smith family, and our whole family treats you well, right? Apart from anything else, just the fact that the whole family is learning Chinese for you shows how much we value you. It is because we care about you that we care more about whether you live a good life after your second marriage. From my current observation, your future husband is simply unable to provide you with a good material foundation. Maybe he is even eyeing the Smith Law Firm!"
Han Meiqing said coldly, "You keep talking about the Smith Law Firm. Who is eyeing the firm? I don't need to tell you who is eyeing the firm!"
Jimmy immediately said, "Sister-in-law, you just said that we can't talk about equity and business issues today, so we can talk about this tomorrow."
"Okay!" Han Meiqing said immediately, "Then please stop criticising my husband. We have already obtained a marriage certificate and are a legal couple recognized by Chinese law!"
Jimmy was a little annoyed when he heard this and said, "Sister-in-law, shouldn't you have informed us before you got the certificate? We certainly respect your right to marriage autonomy, but don't forget that you still own half of the shares of Smith Law Firm! What if your husband is really a gigolo and covets your half of the shares?"
Just play some videos for me....
