Chapter 22 Rich people speak the loudest

Abel didn't know that,

On Michael Levine's side because of lawyer Andy.

already know his identity.

At the same time, he put his figure down and called Anne Hathaway to ask for mercy.

Michael Levine hopes to use Anne Hathaway to avoid liability for attorney Carolyn of the CSandM law firm against him and Derek Wright.

Actually, it happened today. If Abel wasn't very serious, or if he wasn't angry.

very easy to pass.

It was just a fake police report, for successful socialites like Derek Wright and Michael Levine.

There aren't too many problems.

But here's the thing, Abel's move on Michael Levine and Derek Wright today upset him. And when I got to the pizza shop, I was really surprised.

Of course, an unhappy Abe cannot make Michael Levine happy.

He leaves Caroline in pursuit of two elite CAA agents.

And Caroline, New York's famous law queen, wants to make more money.

The responsibilities of the two agents are not limited to today's incident. She even asked everyone to investigate Michael Levine and Derek Wright for any additional questions.

For example, are there any articles that can be written on both of your annual tax returns?

Law firms can find these types of public records.

Compared to today's events, this is the most terrible thing.

If something like this were discovered, it would be a disaster for Michael Levine. Unlimited prison meals.

Lawyer Andy, whom they trusted, told them directly:

"You have been targeted by female Satan."

"Now you only have two ways to escape his pursuit."

"First, bring a lawyer who can fight her. Sorry, I don't have that ability."

"The only thing left is to receive forgiveness from the person involved. That's the person who invited Caroline. If he doesn't sue, everything will be fine."

Michael Levin asked Andy a little about the cost of hiring an attorney and law firm of Caroline's caliber. The result of the statement stunned the two millionaires for a moment.

Caroline is one of the top 50 lawyers in America and may also be ranked number one.

Ask someone at his level to present and the salary is typically calculated at $2,500 an hour.

This is just a survey price. Many services cost more. And requiring such a lawyer to appear is never limited to one's own expenses.

A lawyer at this level will bring a team of top attorneys with him on every outing.

To hire such a team and lawyers to work at the same time would cost at least hundreds of thousands of dollars.

This is just a small problem that can be fixed in a month.

If the case drags on, this cost could reach millions of dollars each year. Maybe even more.

Even millionaire Michael Levine and his colleague Derek Wright cannot afford such fees.

The CAA behind them is affordable, but simply unaffordable.

There are two reasons.

One of them is this question, which has little to do with CAA. Clearly they both had a better way to solve this problem, but they chose this stupid method.

Another reason is that Anne Hathaway's rating is not worth the money CAA spent.

If Annie was now a star in Hollywood, the situation would be different.

In short, after consulting with a lawyer, Michael Levine and his colleagues were all paralyzed.

They then spend most of their day reviewing their connections. Finally, know that Abel Smith is an up-and-coming Wall Street tycoon.

It is said that in six months he earned more than a billion dollars.

is a billionaire.

After asking for news, the two were completely bewildered.

In America, this is absurd. Millionaires and billionaires, no matter from which angle you look at it, the one who suffers is always the one with the least money.

After all, in this country.

Rich people are always the ones who speak the loudest.

Before things changed completely, both of them accepted advice from lawyer Andy. It is about finding a way to receive Abel's forgiveness, so that Abel can undo both of their responsibilities.

This is the cheapest and best way.

Otherwise, the other party could bankrupt both simply by resorting to years of litigation.

THEREFORE,

There was Michael Levine tirelessly calling Anne late at night.

And with a good attitude, they are all a bit humble now. Michael Levine begs Anne, don't talk about it now.

As for Abel,

In the evening he finished exercising.

He left Anne refreshed and took a shower.

Then I left the eighteenth floor of the CarnegieHill apartment.

He went to Wall Street. Wall Street is a major street in Manhattan, New York, stretching from Broadway to the East River in the south.

It is only a third of a mile long and 35 feet wide.

The street is narrow and short, only 7 blocks from Broadway in East River but is known as the "financial center of America".

The famous New York Stock Exchange is also located here and is still the headquarters of several major stock exchanges: such as Nasdaq, American Stock Exchange, New York Futures Exchange, etc.

The term "Wall Street" has grown beyond the street itself and become synonymous with its surroundings. It can also refer to financial markets and financial institutions that influence the entire global economy.

When he arrived, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.

In Manhattan in August, it was midnight at seven o'clock.

When the lights came on, the lights around Wall Street were bright.

The lights of the surrounding skyscrapers decorate this area beautifully and are an important part of Manhattan's most famous night scene. Wonderful evening,

The major trading floors here have of course been closed for a long time.

Most businesses in surrounding skyscrapers have also closed.

But not all. After all, financial companies sometimes have to operate 24 hours a day.

There will be someone on duty. For example, at Smith Capital, some of the company's employees are not on leave at this time.

At night on Wall Street there are many tourists.

Compared to the hustle and bustle of the day, the streets at night are no less bustling.

It's just that Abel came here at this time, not to see the night view.

He came to work. Under the protection of bodyguards, he entered the Woolworth Building discreetly.

I passed the security guard's ID check at the building entrance and took the express elevator to the 33rd floor.

Exit the elevator, go through the hallway and face the lobby with the "Smith Capital" sign.

It was out of service and there was no receptionist working the lobby.

But there were two burly security guards standing there. When they saw Abel appear, they quickly greeted:

"Boss, good evening."

Abel nodded slightly, two of the four bodyguards remained in place, two followed him into the company. (end of this chapter)
