Chapter: 1164
In fact, in his opinion, this case was so simple that it was a waste of his time. It was just a way to make a quick buck.
Even a rookie lawyer, after getting the information provided by Bill, could easily win the case. He just required that the family property be divided equally. It didn't take the brain of a rocket scientist to do this.
Such a silly case with sufficient evidence and clear facts was wasted on a smart man like Bryce. This pathetic game was an insult to his intelligence.
However, it was all because Bill was one of the Jenkins that he had to see it through.
"Mr. Jenkins, I'm going to triple check the basic information about you and Mrs. Jenkins on the website of the Civil Affairs Bureau. Then in the afternoon, I will go to the court and commence with the prosecution process."
"Can you really do that? So quickly?”
Bill's joy knew no bounds.
Although Bryce‘s charge was really steep, it was only a drop in the ocean to Bill at the thought that he could take away part of the heritage of the Smith family after the divorce.
Bill gave Patricia a knowing Look. She understood that it meant he had earned a sexual reward from her.
In the past, every time Bill closed a deal, he expected Patricia to reward him in the bedroom.
“Wait! It can't be! This does not make sense!"
Bryce's hands, which were typing rapidly on the keyboard, suddenly stopped in midair.
He frowned and thought for a bit. Then he closed the website, switched off his laptop, restarted it and then logged in again. This time he carefully entered Bill‘s personal details into the site.
“Umm... Mr. Cooper, is there a problem?" Bill sensed that something was wrong.
Bill pulled out his hands from under the table, rubbed them together, and looked at Bryce uneasily.
“Mr. Cooper, if you have any difficulties, just tell us. There are only three of us in the room. You can discuss anything with us here."
Patricia was a smart woman. She realized that they must have encountered a big setback.
She meant that if money could make the problem go away, she would pay him whatever he asked for. After all, she still relied on Bryce to solve the case.
However, Bryce shook his head worriedly. He then faced the screen of his Laptop to Patricia and Bill.
“According to the information registered here, Mr. Jenkins, your marital status is still ‘unmarried'."
Bill jumped up from the chair in an instant!
“What? Does it say that I am unmarried? How could it be? I don't understand!"
Bryce sighed.
“Mr. Jenkins, Legally speaking, you were never married to Julie Smith." Patricia was the first one to react. She grabbed the marriage certificate that was lying on the table and asked, "So is this a fake? Is it?"
