CHAPTER 563

As soon as Ye Sheng gathered his thoughts together, he rushed and put a call through to his lawyer.

"h.e.l.lo, good day sir."

"Good day. I have an urgent matter and am in pressing need of your help."

"Very well sir. But I cannot come right away. I would be going to court in the next five minutes so anything I can help you with physically would have to wait but if it is a matter of urgency."

"Of course it is a matter of utmost urgency," Ye Sheng interrupted. He took a deep breath. He knew more than anyone how much his lawyer hated to be yelled out.

He would not get the best out of him like that and right now, he needed his help.

"Fine. I am sorry. It is urgent. I really need your help."

"Then you can tell me over the phone. I am all ears. Tell me the details and I would work something out and when I see you, I would have something tangible to present to you, sir."

"Very well. You see, I am being blackmailed."

'You do not need to give in to their demands. At least not yet."

"I may not need to give in but…" Ye Sheng took in a deep breath and released it slowly. "I think I would have to give in. It is not a matter of whether I want to give in or not."

"I see. Might I ask what the blackmail is all about? Because if you need my help in anything, I must first know what is going on and I mean everything. Only then can I give you the best advice."

"Fine. It is for a s.e.xual a.s.sault for an underage."

"A what!"

"Calm down. I was framed."

"You were framed? I do not understand. Sir, please just be straight with me.'

"How else can I be straight with you more than this?"

"What happened exact;y. You can hardly call this framed. You said you were being blackmailed and framed for s.e.xual a.s.sault."

'Yes, d.a.m.n it what is so difficult to understand?"

"Okay. I have one question. Did you do it?"

"Do it?"

"Yes."

"No, I mean do what?"

"Did you commit the offence you are being charged with?"

"Well…" He combed through his hair with his fingers and then leaned against his table. "You see, well I did."

"I can hardly call that being framed, Chairman Ye."

"I know."

"You committed the act. What were you thinking? She is underaged and you know with your company's wealth, you are a target for every suited robber."

"Now is not the time to scold me, Barrister Yang."

"Hardly ever is. Chairman Ye, this shouldn't be a problem. We can just make sure to handle it lightly."

"That is where the problem comes from. I never knew who she was, she met me at the club. I thought she was the one my guys arranged for me but to my amazement, I found out that she was not only today."

"Oh, no wonder you said you were framed."

"Exactly, Yang Jingyu. It is hard as it is. They had planned this and I fell for it."

"Still, we can buy them off and also use the fact that she was underage and did not have legal access to the club…"

"Wait. That is too trivial as to mine. If this blows up, it ruins my company and furthermore my image and family. My ex-wife would never forgive me."

'We would buy their silence sir. Do not worry. There are ways around this."

"Hardly. Perhaps because I did not tell you that the girls backing is none other than Chairman Zhang himself."

"Chairman what?"

"Yeah. Now you know why I am like this. He stands so much to gain if do not take his offer and he exposes me. By then no one would be talking about whether she was underaged or not but the fact that I slept with her. It would be a child abuse situation."

"Sigh! Have you checked her details?"

"I would have people investigate her but he already sent me everything. He planned well for this. Besides I have little to no time for all of this."

"What do you mean," Yang Jingyu asked.

"I have just three days, Yang Jingyu. Just three days to come up with the sum of three hundred million dollars."

"Holy!"

"Yes. Either that or it increases to half a billion dollars. That should not be a problem if I was still the one handling the company. Ye Cheng is fully in charge. I need us to come up with ways to invest this money in a company. An unknown one. So we need planning and we need to do it fast."

"Roger that, sir. I would come to see you once I finish from the court."

"Very well. I would make the necessary calls."

No. Just await my arrival. The last thing we need is blowing this out of proportion so no one else finds out and I would also need to draft out an agreement contract of silence for yourself, Chairman Zhang and the girl."

"Yes, I was going to tell you that as well."

"Okay. I understand the matter. I would talk to you later, sir. I am at court."

"Okay. Thank you."

He ended the call and relaxed in his chair. So many things to think about and so much pondering he needed to do.

No matter how much he tried, he just could not bring himself to think straight anymore.

One look at him and even some poor persons would wish not to be in his shoes. Really, the rich also cried.

After some time, Ye Sheng stood from his chair and made his way to the window of his office.

From where he stood, he could see the streets around bustling with people going about their daily lives. What would he not give to be just the normal person going freely?

A part of him wished, a part fo him prayed, as his thoughts began to go down memory lane, one he readily wandered into.. One where all of these things used to be good and he once gad a complete and lovely home.
