Chapter 2104: Did not contain any nonsense
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“It’s absolutely true. If you don’t believe me, you can call the US government immediately and check it out. You can even tweet our president directly.”Lu Anpeng still had some confidence.
Just as Gu Nianzhi had said, he had ordered his team to stall for time and fight the jurisdictional lawsuit desperately for the appointment letter. Keven’s parents had been operating in the US for more than two months before they were able to settle the president and the Secretary of State.
He was the only one in the entire legal team who knew about this matter.
Otherwise, if word got out, everyone would be screwed.
And when he thought about it, it had been quite a close call.
He only felt that Keven was lucky. Because this letter of appointment had just been delivered to them yesterday, Keven’s parents had ordered them to immediately get someone to file it with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Huaxia. They couldn’t afford to delay for even a minute.
Fortunately, they had long been in contact with the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China, so this matter was handled properly.
He didn’t expect that just yesterday, Keven’s identity as a “Diplomat”had just been verified, and today, China’s court was already in session.
This time scale was really accurate!
When Lu Anpeng thought of this matter, his forehead couldn’t help but break out in sweat.
It was true. Yesterday, most of them felt that Keven’s parents were making a mountain out of a molehill. Moreover, Huaxia was on the Spring Festival holiday. If they went to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to file a report, they would have to find the person on duty through the deputy minister. Originally, they had proposed to slack off, today, they would file the report after the Ministry of Foreign Affairs officially went to work.
Only Lu Anpeng was more cautious. Moreover, he had never feign compliance with his employer. No matter how difficult the matter was, as long as there was an opportunity to do it, he would not slack off or play tricks.
The facts proved that his attitude and principles in doing things were correct.
At the very least, it meant that he had exercised his due diligence.
Lu Anpeng’s mind was running wild. Gu Nianzhi looked down at the letter of appointment and had already read it out. She said, “This letter of appointment is for Kevin Laris, who is currently in court, isn’t it?”
“I have some identification here, if you’d like to see it, lawyer Gu.”
Lu Anpeng pursed his lips and took out Kevin’s identification. One was for Gu Nianzhi, one was for the judge, and one was even for the reporters who were listening in.
Since he had dared to publicize it with such fanfare, and also had the letter of appointment of the President of the United States and the signature of the Secretary of State, there should be no problem with Kevin’s identification.
Gu Nianzhi raised an eyebrow. Lu Anpeng had taken the initiative to take out Keven’s identification before she had even brought it up. It looked like they had indeed made ample preparations.
She took Keven’s identification document from Lu Anpeng and glanced at it without batting an eyelid.
She then turned on the portable scanner and scanned Keven’s diplomatic appointment letter and identification document into the computer. She then put it on the big screen and switched out the surveillance video of the gunfight that had just taken keven away.
The audience in the courtroom looked up and saw two documents placed side by side on the big screen.
The two documents were both in English and Chinese.
The one on the left was the appointment letter signed by the President of the United States and the Secretary of State, while the one on the right was Keven’s identification document.
Gu Nianzhi picked up a laser pointer and pointed at Keven’s identification document. She said, “Everyone, please take a look at this identification document.”
“Keven Laris, born in 2XXX, born in New York, Father John Laris, mother Kelly Lee.”
“As you can see from here, Keven Laris was educated in New York from primary school to university. He graduated from Columbia University in New York ten years ago and immediately joined Wall Street after graduation. Within ten years, he went from a junior financial analyst all the way up to an executive at Carlyle International Investment Ltd. .”
“This resume is indeed more beautiful.”
Gu Nianzhi was full of praise.
Lu Anpeng’s relaxed brows furrowed again.
Because he knew Gu Nianzhi’s style too well, this young female lawyer had never said a single word of nonsense in court.
She had never praised her opponent.
Now she was actually praising the defendant as the prosecution’s lawyer. It was too weird.
Lu Anpeng’s heart was in his throat. He was like a person waiting for his second shoe to fall to the ground. He was terrified as he waited for Gu Nianzhi to continue speaking.
Gu Nianzhi put down the laser pointer in her hand and turned to look at Lu Anpeng. She smiled and said, “Barrister Lu, how long have you known the defendant, Keven?”
“Mr. Keven is my client. I didn’t have a personal relationship with him in the past,”Lu Anpeng said cautiously, afraid that he would fall into Gu Nianzhi’s trap.
Gu Nianzhi nodded. “That means you came to Huaxia to see Keven after the incident, right?”
Lu Anpeng was stunned. “Does this have anything to do with the case?”
“You just have to answer yes or no.”Gu Nianzhi didn’t give Lu Anpeng any chance to argue.
The judge also supported Gu Nianzhi. “Defense lawyer, please answer the prosecutor’s question.”
Lu Anpeng thought for a moment before saying, “Yes, I was hired by Mr. Keven’s biological parents after the incident, and that’s why I’m here.”
“Then how can you be sure that this keven laris is the Keven Laris on this appointment letter and Identity Certificate?”Gu Nianzhi picked up the laser pointer and pointed at it without looking back, she happened to be pointing at the name “Keven”on the big screen.
Lu Anpeng was finally relieved. He thought to himself that he had overestimated gu nianzhi.
No matter how smart and intelligent she was, she was only in her early twenties. How powerful could she be?
Lu Anpeng had carefully prepared and confirmed every single question she asked.
He wasn’t afraid that she would play tricks on him!
Lu Anpeng laughed and said in a mellow and humorous voice, “How can I prove it? Of course, I have proof from my immediate family, as well as proof from my colleagues, friends, and neighbors.”
He pointed at Kevin and said, “Mr. Kevin Laris in the court has been confirmed by Mr. Kevin’s parents, relatives, and colleagues. There is no doubt about his identity.”
Actually, how could there be a problem?
Keven’s parents had spent so much money and effort not only to hire the best legal team in the United States, but also to use all of their connections, within two months, they had gotten Keven a diplomatic appointment letter of “Cultural Counsellor.”.
To Keven, this was no different from a death-free gold medal.
Keven’s parents had paid almost half the cost of their family property to make the President, who was a businessman, satisfied and signed the appointment letter of the only Cultural Counsellor.
Yes, there was no cultural counsellor position among American diplomats. This was added temporarily for Keven’s special situation.
American diplomats reported directly to the Secretary of State. So as long as the Secretary of State agreed, it was completely reasonable and legal to create a position of “Cultural Counsellor.”.
With such a big deal and such a big lineup, if it was not his own son, who would be so stupid as to make trouble?
Moreover, Lu Anpeng still had the DNA paternity test in his hands, which could completely prove Keven’s identity.
No one knew what Gu Nianzhi was thinking.
Lu Anpeng held a bunch of documents that Keven’s parents had sent him, and his mood gradually calmed down.
If Gu Nianzhi continued to badger him on this issue, he would directly throw the DNA test out.
In fact, Gu Nianzhi’s next question was indeed,”… then did you guys do a DNA test to verify the paternity?”
