Meizong Wealth Life

Chapter 29 Nate is determined to start a business

According to traditional American social habits, when you move into a new home, you must invite a few friends to have a party at home to celebrate.

Jamie does have such plans.

It's just that this is not the right time to bring it up.

After all, Nate's family had just suffered such a major change, and it was even so bad that they were homeless.

But Jamie is having a party in his penthouse, which is a bit too shocking.

After packing their luggage, everyone headed to Bozeman Airport in two cars as they had come.

The only difference was that there was an extra person in Jamie's car.

Jimmy, his personal attorney.

Anyway, Chuck's private jet can seat 14 people, so Jamie decided to take Jimmy with him to prevent Jimmy from having to drive his dusty Suzuki Esteem across most of the United States to New York.

Who knows what trouble this unlucky guy will encounter on the road.

On the way to the airport, Jimmy gave full play to his ability to observe people and soon learned from the frowning Nate that Nate's father was facing a lawsuit.

Jimmy immediately realized that this was a great opportunity to expand his business.

He immediately used his eloquence as a mobile phone salesman and deceiver, trying to persuade Nate to hire him as Nate's father's defense attorney.

Jimmy knew that he had no reputation or foundation in New York, and it was not easy to convince Nate, so he used his trump card.

free!

Nate was really moved.

The two finalized their initial cooperation intention in the car. During this period, Jamie did not express any opinions and quietly watched Jimmy perform alone.

Arriving at the airport, Jamie met Jimmy in the bathroom who was memorizing the manuscript in front of the sink mirror.

Nate will formally discuss Nate's father's case with Jimmy on the plane later, and Jimmy needs to rehearse in advance.

Seeing that Jimmy had worked so hard, Jamie finally couldn't help but want to remind this guy.

"Jimmy, I've seen your previous litigation resume in New Mexico. The first lawsuit you fought was when you were entrusted by the court to defend three students who drunkenly sneaked into the morgue and caused mischief. As a result, you lost that lawsuit. ”

Jimmy was about to defend himself, but Jamie had no intention of listening to his nonsense.

He said straight to the point:

"I watched the video of that trial. You tried your best to defend your three clients. However, the prosecutor only showed the court and jury a surveillance video of the morgue without saying a word during the whole process. In the end, you I still lost the case and could only get one-third of the legal fees.”

This past incident made Jimmy's eyes filled with deep reluctance, and he gritted his teeth and explained loudly:
"Those three bastards broke into the morgue, sawed off the head of a deceased person, and held it in their hands to show off their power and provoke the camera. Everyone would lose in such a lawsuit!"

Jamie tells Jimmy not to get excited.

"You are absolutely right! And this is exactly what I want to tell you. Nate's father's case is of the same nature as your previous case. You don't really think that Nate's family is so desperate that they don't even have a lawyer. You can’t even afford it, right?”

"By the way, Nate's grandfather is named William Vanderbilt. Yes, the Vanderbilt family you know."

After saying that, he left Jimmy, who was stunned, and turned to leave the bathroom.

Jimmy was deeply shocked. It took him more than ten minutes to adjust his mentality and come out of the bathroom.

Back in the VIP lounge, all Jimmy could think about was what reason he would give to reject Nate on the plane later.

It was so good that Nate received a call from his mother at this time.

After walking aside to answer the phone, Nate looked terrible when he came back.

Blair immediately stood up from the couch and asked Nate what happened.

Nate shrugged helplessly and told a piece of news that stunned everyone present.

Nate's dad jumped bail and absconded.

This incident was a huge blow to Nate, and it can be said that it completely destroyed the image of his father in his mind.

When things got to this point, everyone sympathized with Nate.

Except Jimmy.

He should be the happiest person to hear the news.Nate's father ran away, so there was no need for a lawsuit.

Jimmy finally no longer has to worry about his first lawsuit in New York ending in failure.

Blair tried to comfort Nate, but who would have thought that Nate would confess to Blair at this time that the previous reconciliation was a decision he made against his will due to pressure from his family.

Now he doesn't want to continue deceiving Blair.

Blair's eyes were filled with tears, and she looked at Nate who said these words with disappointment.

"So you're going to break up with me now?"

A trace of unbearability flashed in Nate's eyes, but in the end he nodded firmly.

Blair slapped Nate without hesitation, turned around and ran out the door.

Serena quickly chased after him.

Nate also felt uncomfortable, holding his head in his hands and sitting on the sofa with a look of despair.

Chuck watched all this with cold eyes, without any intention of comforting Nate.

So does Jamie.

In the end, it was Dan who kindly walked up to Nate and persuaded Nate to cheer up.

Nate looked up and gave Dan a grateful look.

At the same time he asked Dan.

"What would you do if you encountered the same thing as me?"

Confirming that Nate wasn't joking, Dan thought for a moment and replied:

"I will send Jenny to my mother first, then drop out of school and find a job, and try to pay off the debt first."

Nate grabbed Dan's hand like a drowning man grabbing at straws.

"What about Rufus? Will you give up on your father, or persuade him to come back and surrender?"

This question stopped Dan in his tracks.

He just thought about it casually along with Nate's question and didn't think much about it at all.

"I'd probably choose the latter."

Dan replied with a shrug.

I swear to God, he really answered randomly this time.

After all, Dan didn't have the support of a powerful grandpa like Nate, so naturally he couldn't have much empathy for Nate's experience.

Nate seemed to be greatly encouraged, and his eyes suddenly became firm.

He stood up from the sofa and announced loudly:
"I have thought about it. After I return to New York this time, I am going to take a year off from school and try to start my own business."

Cough!

Jamie didn't hold back for a moment and quickly lowered his head to cover up.

Nate looked over immediately.

"Jamie, you think this is a great idea too, right?"

"Oh... no, I just want to ask where the start-up capital for your business came from? Because of your father, it may be difficult for you to borrow a penny from the bank now. You can't borrow it from your grandpa, right?"

If this is the case, Jamie feels that there is no need for Nate to start a business. He can directly go to Nate's grandpa and be an obedient and good boy, which is [-] times better than him working hard outside.

How could the efforts of several generations of the Vanderbilt family be lost to Nate's whim of entrepreneurship?
Nate shook his head as he cast a determined gaze on his best friend, Chuck.

"I don't need anyone else's help, as long as you are there, it's enough!"
