Breaking Up Is Better Than Divorce

The party’s own newspaper

“Looks like that woman came back to Korea a while ago.”

The day before the pleading, Cheol-woo of Sejong publicity stopped by again.

Now it was time to discuss what was going to happen on the day of the hearing.

“I saw it too.”

Eugene said as he picked up the smartphone he was holding in his hand.

It was just an ordinary office worker’s return home, but the portal site was again full of her stories.

Her face as she left the airport wearing sunglasses was featured in the article.

Normally, I don’t even upload photos of the public, even to protect my privacy.

However, it seems that the other side was also determined this time, so I took a high-resolution photo of the face of the thin, thin woman and attached it to the article.

“It looked very bad.”

“That’s it.”

“You look like you’ve been starving for a few days. Looking at the picture, it looks like he has a deathly disease. With this, the accusation against you is now over the limit. People will throw stones at you even if you have a serial killer next to you.”

“I will. haha.”

Eugene laughed happily.

“Aren’t you worried? Are you ready for the lawsuit?”

Cheolwoo seems a little worried.

“uh. The preparations are enough.”

“But there is only one lawyer over there. It’s also a very, very young woman. I mean, it’s too much of a comparison with this one. Isn’t it too shabby for a Daeyang Group event?”

“That’s how you compare with our lawyers. Our lawyers are all former high-ranking prosecutors who are over 60 years old. It’s very well put together.”

“So that’s it. There’s a lot of talk that you’re already pressing your fiancee with money. But really, such a group of lawyers is harsh when I look at it. Are there only nine people listed as lawyers in the divorce case? How much did you hear?”

“Are there more than ten?”

“Huh… … Here’s Gauguin. Our family has also grown a lot.”

Cheol-woo rubbed his hands and said.

“How can you charge me a little more? huh.”

“ah! okay. Did you hire a lot of people?”

“uh. Now, it is at the level of a mid-sized public relations agency. hey! It’s really thanks to our Hogaeng-nim that we are doing very well.”

“Take care of your equity. Think about when you will be funded.”

“Are you really doing it?”

Cheol-woo asked with a broad smile.

“In the next few years, a shooting star group will be in the top 10 groups, but if it’s a public relations agency in charge of one group, shouldn’t it still be large?”

“Aww! can you tell me this Lord!”

Cheol-woo said cheerfully.

“Then it starts tomorrow, right?”

“uh. Start as soon as tomorrow’s pleadings are over. Recruiting journalists?”

“Four majors. Six in the middle class. Everyone will be in the audience.”

“Ads are doubled where the article is posted first.”

Competition always makes people run hard.

“All right. President!”

Cheol-woo replied vigorously as if he was receiving advertising money.

“This time, the Minguk Ilbo article estimated that your fortune exceeds $6 billion. He admits only half of what our knights do.”

Even Sejong Public Relations, who acted for Eugene’s public relations, did not know Eugene’s exact assets.

He just leaks the estimated assets to the media as Eugene orders.

Recently, he posted an article worth more than 15 billion dollars, and the Minkook Ilbo, which is close to the Daeyang Group, posted a speculative article that about half of it would be true.

“15 billion dollars. With personal money, you are the richest person in Korea. I really have nothing to say.”

“Isn’t it 15 billion?”

“okay? but. It looks like the people of the Republic of Korea wrote it properly.”

“It will be five times more than what I wrote there. When is 6 billion an enemy?”

“Huh! 30 billion dollars? Almost 33 trillion won, right?”

Cheol-woo made an expressionless expression.

“Anyway, let’s start with about $20 billion tomorrow. That would have an impact.”

“If it exceeds 20 trillion won, you are the richest person in Korea in name and reality. It definitely has an impact. great.”

Cheol-woo got up and said that he would come up with a strategy for the promotional campaign that would start the next day.

A considerable amount of publicity money will be spent, and the story of Eugene and the Daeyang Group will shake the country all day long.

“It has been very dry.”

The man put his hand on the woman’s face and said.

“You don’t know who it is?”

the woman said sarcastically. But the man’s hand did not refuse.

“I suffered too much.”

The man’s hand slowly went down.

“Are you doing well with your new bride?”

The woman let out a few thorny words.

“The woman? Oh yeah… … you know how about Who likes doing it? I want to die too.”

The man’s hand grew bolder.

“Your face is just right, so is your body. There is no comparison with you.”

“Still, he has a very big background called the Minguk Ilbo. You can be compared to a woman like me.”

“Of course there is no comparison. You were one of the most beautiful women in the ocean.”

“Even so, I can’t be your real woman.”

Unlike usual, the woman was determined and spit out the words she had inside.

“Hang in there. When Daeyang comes into my hands, I will formally apply for marriage at that time.”

“I don’t need that kind of candy spread. I didn’t even expect it in the first place. Keep your promises. After the trial, the Paris branch manager.”

“Sure. That’s already the end of the story. It’s not bad in the ocean for you to take over that beggar’s face and then take over as regional manager in Paris.”

“It’s been two years. Two years later, he came back and… … .”

“It’s an executive. don’t worry. By then, it would have been time for me to take the lead. How much longer do you think our grandparents will hold out? now over ninety If my father owns the ocean, heavy industry is mine.”

“I see. really! And thank you for the apartment. Mom was very happy.”

The woman opened her face again and said.

“I’m glad. by the way… … Do you understand why I haven’t stopped by yet?”

“Sure. See how you get there now. to make a big deal It’s okay for a child to not recognize a person yet.”

The woman did not blame the man for showing his face only once since the birth of the child.

“Can you do better tomorrow?”

“Is it okay if I don’t go to the courtroom?”

“That one is fine. After the pleadings, an interview in front of the court is enough.”

“I see. I will do as you tell me.”

“Stop talking about work.”

The man grabbed the woman’s shoulder.

“okay. It’s been a long time since we met… … .”

While the pleadings began and the defense lawyers from both sides went back and forth for a while, Eugene had to feel a lot of embarrassment.

It was no different, but maintaining a somber expression was the problem.

I want to be smiling with anger in my heart, but in a solemn courtroom, in front of a respected judge, isn’t it impossible for the defendant to do so?

“The defendant notified the plaintiff of the divorce the day before the wedding. Without giving any reason.”

Finally, when the self-interview began, Eugene felt lonely and at ease.

“Does the defendant know how the plaintiff suffered?”

The attitude of the plaintiff’s lawyer, who was a prosecutor in charge of s*xual violence, was more like a prosecutor dealing with s*xual offenders rather than a lawyer.

“I haven’t seen you since that day, so I don’t know.”

Eugene calmly replied.

“Are you aware that the plaintiff’s miscarriage was caused by such unscrupulous conduct of the plaintiff?”

Plaintiff’s defense counsel once again interrogated.

It must be entirely their strategy to use words that are closer to criticism than newspapers.

“I only found out a few days ago. I am very sorry about that.”

“The plaintiff suffered serious psychological damage and was now sentenced to be unable to conceive any longer. As a woman before being a lawyer, I can see how unfortunate this terrible situation is.”

This time, instead of looking at Eugene, he appealed to the judge.

“yes. I know, so continue the interrogation.”

The judge didn’t stop watching the lawyer’s show.

I knew before I heard that most of the people in the audience sitting behind the court were journalists.

Even a judge who makes a fair judgment based only on the standard of the law cannot be free from the poisonous articles of reporters.

In particular, if it was a case that drew the public’s attention as it is now, we had to be careful and careful.

“Has the defendant ever apologized to the plaintiff for that matter?”

“There is not.”

“Please take a good look at the face of the defendant, who shows no remorse. I absolutely cannot tolerate that arrogant attitude.”

The lawyer spoke to the audience.

She was well aware that most of today’s audience are journalists.

And he knows that this trial will be a huge opportunity for him.

It was an opportunity to push hard against a man who is said to be one of the wealthiest men in Korea.

Moreover, it is infinitely disadvantageous to the other side, and it is the perfect stage for oneself.

How many more times in your lifetime will you get an opportunity like this?

At a glance, the lawyer gives the defendant’s lawyers an eye.

A lawyer from the Seoul Central District Court, a former chief judge of the same court, and a lawyer from the prosecutor’s office are sitting side by side.

All of them are old lawyers with gray hair.

If it had been another trial, he would have already been fed up with the face of his opponent.

Right now, the judge of this presiding judge is looking down at two of his former bosses.

But if it’s any other trial, this one is different.

It was a golden opportunity to make her a star, something she couldn’t possibly lose.

For a while, the lawyer’s sharp questions continued.

The lawyer mobilized a variety of vocabulary to somehow make the defendant an unscrupulous human being second to none.

“Defendant’s attorney, do you have anything to interrogate?”

We also give these lawyers a chance for a fair trial.

“Doesn’t the defendant regret pushing the plaintiff’s life into misery?”

“I regret it.”

“What regrets do you have?”

“I should have made a decision earlier. It would have been less unfortunate for both sides.”

“Why did you make that decision?”

Eugene continued to answer while trying to manage her expression.

“It’s embarrassing, but… … I became suspicious of my fiancee’s infidelity. And it occurred to me that my fiancée wasn’t going to marry me simply because she was in love with me.”

“Then you mean the marriage had other purposes?”

“At least I thought so at the time. Once I had doubts, my heart broke out of control. And we thought that getting married while doubting the other would be a great misfortune for each other.”

“Is there any basis for such suspicion?”

“It wasn’t there at the time. Just what she said, her attitude kept getting caught.”

“Then you’re saying that I made that decision just out of doubt.”

“It was at first. But somehow I got the chance to confirm my suspicions.”

“Judge. I will present the evidence.”

The lawyer looked at the judge and said.

“Judge! Evidence Unclaimed evidence!”

The opposing lawyer shouted.

“What if I present evidence that I did not request for evidence on the same day?”

The judge looked at Eugene and the lawyer alternately with a displeased face and said.

“I will make a decision on whether to accept the evidence after confirming that it is necessary for the trial. Whether it will be adopted or not will be revealed in the next pleading.”

The judge said sternly.
