Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 48 The Real Sacrifice

Mr. Barron owns hundreds of acres of land and employs more than a dozen farmers to work for him. In addition, Mr. Barron has built a magnificent villa on his own land. It can be seen that his financial situation is not bad.

In the stables of the farm, Hobert met Mr. Barron who was grooming his beloved horse.

He looked like he was in his 30s, tall and strong, with a beard that was more common in the Loen Kingdom.

Mr. Baron received Hobert warmly, put down his work, and invited Hobert to the living room for tea.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Mr. Barron spoke about the "legal aid" he needed. It turned out that he wanted to divorce his wife, but he didn't want to share the property with his wife equally. That's why he hired a "professional" like Hobert help.

In Luen's "Marriage Law", if the wife proposes a divorce, the husband and wife will not be able to share any property. In many cases, they can only get back half of the dowry. However, if the husband proposes a divorce, the wife has the right to claim half of the property. property.

The only exception is in a marriage where one of the spouses has betrayed the marriage, so that the other spouse can take the initiative in dividing the property by filing for divorce.

Hobert scolded "Scumbag" in his heart, but he had a warm smile on his face: "I see, you want your wife to initiate a divorce?"

No way, this is his job. Who made Mr. Barron his client? Hobert was already mentally prepared for this when he returned from the Magistrate's Court for the first time.

"In your opinion, I should be a hopelessly despicable person?" Mr. Barron stroked his forehead and said, "I love my wife very much, but she doesn't love me. I can feel it, she There is always someone else in her heart. It may be for this reason that she is not willing to conceive my child. "

Then Mr. Barron told the story of him and his wife. His wife, Penny, was a female worker who came to the farm eight years ago. Penny was very cheerful and lively when she was a teenager, which impressed Mr. Barron deeply.

At that time, Mr. Barron still had a happy family, but in the summer six years ago, his wife died of an illness. Barron was very sad for this, and it took a year or two to recover from the grief of losing his wife. came out.

At that time, Penny, who was still cheerful and lively, gradually made Mr. Barron see the beauty of life again, so three years ago, Mr. Barron proposed to Penny.

At that time, Penny seemed a little reluctant, but Mr. Barron didn't care about it, and directly called Penny's parents to discuss the marriage.

This greatly pleased Penny's parents, since Mr. Barron was a great man in the neighborhood.

After getting married, Mr. Barron really wanted to have a child, but after three years of hard work, there was no result.And in the past three years, Penny has gradually become taciturn, not as lively and cheerful as before.

Mr. Barron also gradually lost patience with his wife. Until now, Mr. Barron and Penny could no longer get along in harmony, so Mr. Barron wrote to ask the law firm for help.

After hearing this story, Hobert didn't know whether to praise Mr. Barron's courage, because in today's era, after a master forces a maid or female worker to serve him, he usually only gives a sum of money to send the other party away.

The marriage of master and servant requires a lot of courage, and both master and servant need courage.

From this point of view, Mr. Barron really loved Penny very much, but in this marriage, no one asked Penny's wishes.

Hobert thought for a while and said, "Mr. Barron, my suggestion is that since you still love your wife deeply, you might as well give her some property that can sustain her life or give her a sum of money when you divorce. In this way Words can not only establish your good image, but also avoid many troubles after marriage."

"I have this plan." Mr. Barron said: "I plan to give Penny the wool processing workshop. The profit of the workshop is enough for her to live a good life."

Hobert understood that he could give some property, but he could not divide the property equally.

He said: "If you are willing to hire me to help you deal with this matter, I will come forward and talk to your wife."

Mr. Barron hesitated for a few seconds before saying: "Well, Mr. Hobert, we have to take this step, and I am willing to hire you as my lawyer to help me with this matter.

"Well, in terms of remuneration, I have already discussed it with Mr. Button in the letter."

Hobert nodded, and Mr. Barron was willing to give a commission of 10 pounds for this matter.

This commission sounds small, but that is because Hobert started his career as a lawyer with a high starting point. Most of the entrusted commissions are 10 pounds to 20 pounds.

For commissions like Mr. Barron's, only when it has to be resolved in court will a certain percentage of commission fees be charged according to Mr. Barron's assets.

Naturally, barrister Barton would not personally handle such a small commission, and even the person who corresponded with Mr. Barron was also Barton's assistant.

When Hobert came, he prepared the standard contract. After the two signed the contract, Hobert asked, "Where is Ms. Penny now?"

Mr. Barron didn't have the hearty smile he had when he was in the stables. He squeezed out a smile: "She went back to her parents' house today. Every once in a while, she will go back to her parents' house for a few days. When she comes back... "

Hobert said, "I'd better go to Penny's parents' house and talk to her."

It is the wisest choice to talk to her when the two are separated.

"However..." Hobert looked at his pocket watch: "It's a little late today, and it's not suitable for visiting Ms. Penny. Please give me the address of Ms. Penny's home. I will visit tomorrow morning."

After getting the address, Hobert got up to say goodbye. Just as he imagined, he walked a long way to find a rented carriage, and spent more than two hours in the afternoon on the road.

The only good news is that this is an entrustment from the handling agency, and the fare agency will reimburse the fare.

Thinking of reimbursement, Hobert suddenly thought of Old Neil. It seems that he is already showing signs of losing control. At the party next week, he must find a way to remind "Mr. Ke" and see if he can save Old Neil. you.

……

In the Southern Continent, night fell quietly. Elliott carried a lantern to a clearing deep in the woods. He built the "spiritual wall" first, and then drew patterns, lit candles, Burn the herbs.

After everything was ready, he began to chant: "O creator of the order in the world;

"You are the master of the kingdom of disorder;

"You are the master of the Bell of Order.

"Your faithful servant prays for your watch;
"Pray that you accept his offering;

"I pray that you will open the gate of the kingdom."

After the sacrificial speech was finished, there was a sudden gust of wind in the "Wall of Spirituality", and a black vortex suddenly appeared above the simple altar.

The vortex is getting bigger and bigger, as if it wants to swallow everything around it. When it is taller than the surrounding trees, two bronze doors appear in the vortex.

Elliott was completely shocked by this scene, it turned out that this is the "Gate of the Kingdom of God"!
