Chapter 2724 - 2742: A Good Person Among the Bad

Nina Rice sighed, "That girl was fortunate later; she had a child and then found a chance to escape. But after leaving, she kept thinking about her child, called several times to negotiate for the child back, and they wouldn’t agree. They said unless she came back to give them a son, they wouldn’t let her take her daughter. Negotiations failed, and the girl had no choice but to reach out to me after seeing my Twitter."

"That family favors boys over girls, and her daughter wasn’t well-treated there. The father is slightly better, just silent and not talkative. The grandparents see her as a granddaughter and find her displeasing everywhere, even thinking of selling her to buy a wife for their son. It’s only the father who disagrees, so the child hasn’t been sold yet."

"We were supposed to go to court, but later the child’s father was convinced and agreed to let the mother take the child away. In the future, if he wants to see the child, he can visit with the mother’s consent."

"Actually, we all know that the distance is great, north and south, and although transportation is developed now, the round-trip fare from there to the girl’s mother’s city is several thousand bucks. This is nearly a year’s income for a family like the child’s father if they don’t eat or drink. So, after the child and mother left, they are basically unrelated to that mountain village."

"And for the child’s mother, she may not want to have any connection with that mountain village in the future; after all, those years were a nightmare for her."

"Honestly, the child’s father isn’t exactly bad; at least he doesn’t treat bought wives like animals, and when feeling dissatisfied, beat and scold them. He never physically abused his wife, but he was too weak. When his parents beat his wife, he never made a sound, just stood next to them watching or quietly walked away."

"After his wife gave birth to a daughter, he took advantage of his parents being out in the fields, borrowed a few eggs from the neighbor, and cooked them for the child’s mother."

"I arranged to talk with him alone twice, and he remained silent, not saying a word. The third time I went to the village, I showed him many photos I took outdoors and told him this is the world outside the small village. If his daughter follows her mother, she will grow up to attend university, become an intellectual, a confident and beautiful girl who can sing and dance well. It’s during this time that he looked at the photos on my mobile phone for two days and finally softened, agreeing to let the child’s mother take the child away, signing the agreement to give up custody rights."

Thinking of the overly silent man and his gaze as he watched his former wife leave with their daughter, Nina Rice couldn’t help but feel heavy-hearted.

"My client was quite lucky to encounter a rare good person among the bad. We went back and forth to the village three times before successfully taking away her daughter," Nina Rice said, "I heard Joseph Shaw handed Jillian Carter’s inheritance to someone dedicated to managing it, planning to establish a Hope Primary School. Honestly, upon hearing this news, I felt Joseph Shaw really did something great for Jillian Carter."

"In such a small village, there are even many who haven’t graduated from elementary school."
