The Daily Life of American Drama Detective

Chapter 263: MAX, the bankrupt sister who turned from pink to black: Mad Max, you are so inferior!

"Let's see again."

The female lawyer Emily turned back, looked at Harvey in a suit very confidently, and then left the Pearson Hardman Law Firm with her assistant and others.

"Did you change your schedule for tomorrow morning?"

Female secretary Donna walked in and smiled playfully at Harvey, a man in a suit who had his back to the door and was overlooking the New York street scene from a tall building through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Harvey, a man in a suit, turned around and gave the female secretary, Donna, a questioning expression.

"This is Emily. I thought she had grown up. No, it's because you have grown up, but it turns out she's still the same... ok, let's do it."

The female secretary Donna complained and left.

That night.

In a luxury hotel suite.

"Have you ever heard the anxious call for help from Shelly who was saved in 911 after her daughter Jamie went missing?"

Harvey, a man in a suit, and Emily, a female lawyer, sat opposite each other and began a verbal spat: "Anyone who listens to this recording will know that Shelly, as a mother, loves her daughter very much.

Rather than just the opposite or even extreme to the other side!

Murdering his own daughter?

Do you know who would think so?

Antisocial pervert!

Today’s results also prove this!

The jury will never have a good impression of such a person."

"Stop showing off."

The female lawyer Emily rolled her eyes at Harvey, a man in a suit: "The fact that we are sitting in my room means that we are still willing to talk. At least I am willing."

"Are you sure you want to talk about this?"

Suit-wearing Harvey joked: "Isn't it your tattoo that misses me?"

"How do you know my tattoo hasn't washed off?"

Female lawyer Emily smiled and said.

"Your character!"

Harvey, a suit expert, laughed and said, "I know not only it hasn't been washed off, but it's also expanded."

"Are you so sure?"

Female lawyer Emily's eyes flashed.

"Please!"

Harvey, a man in a suit, tilted his head: "Emily, you know me! I always only deal with people. As long as I catch people, it will be easy for me to do things."

"Never be so confident. You will never know what the outcome of anything is until the outcome is revealed."

Female lawyer Emily countered: "And now we have only one way to know the final result."

As she spoke, she turned around, pushed her long hair aside, and unzipped the back of her skirt, revealing the tattoo on her back.

"The tattoo is really getting bigger."

Harvey, a man in a suit, came over to admire it.

"My own Monopoly board."

Emily, a female lawyer, smiled and said: "I keep expanding my territory."

"How deep down is it?"

Harvey, the man in suit, smiled.

"Beyond your imagination."

After the female lawyer Emily said something, she turned around and hugged Harvey, a man in a suit who was close at hand: "So, do you think you can grasp it?"

"It looks like we won't be making any progress at work tonight."

Harvey, the suit guy, joked.

"On the contrary, I think we will make a breakthrough at work tonight, plaintiff's lawyer~"

Female lawyer Emily flirts with the opposing lawyer.

"Really? The defendant's lawyer, I don't believe it~"

Harvey, who is a master in suits, will naturally not be afraid of such a familiar little scene.

"hehe."

The female lawyer Emily took a step back with a chuckle and distanced the two of them: "Sometimes retreating is to move forward. Two million dollars plus a private apology, what do you think?"

"Do you know Detective Chuck?"

Harvey, a man in a suit, sat there without moving. He leaned back and watched the female lawyer Emily ask a question at leisure.

"of course I know."

Female lawyer Emily nodded: "But now it is no longer a detective, it is no longer his case, it is ours, so we have the final say."

"It seems you still don't know him."

Harvey, a man in a suit, shook his head and laughed: "Otherwise you wouldn't have said such childish words. Max Henson ridiculed him several times on the radio show, so he drew a bottom line. Five million dollars and a public apology are not enough."

few.

So if you really know what his temper is like, you should know that there is no room for negotiation at all, you either agree or refuse."

"That's it?"

After the female lawyer Emily was stunned for a moment, she laughed and said: "If you think you can use this as a reason not to give in, you can only say that it is too naive.

What you have now alone is not enough to win. If necessary, we can afford to delay.

And who pays your clients’ fees? Does your law practice charity?”

"No, you can't afford it!"

Suit Harvey affirmed: "Just now, how many fans has Max Henson lost because of this case?

He is a radio show host who is always venomous at others. During the interactive session of answering calls, how many calls have he received in the past two days from people who are venomous at him?

I heard that he was extremely embarrassed by the poisonous tongue.

Don't tell me you don't know!"

"Of course I know!"

Female lawyer Emily retorted: "Isn't that sharp-tongued guy Dr. Greg House of Princeton Teaching Hospital?

As far as I know, he is a friend of Detective Chuck. If you want to use this as a data example, I can only say that you are too boring."

"Still! No matter whose friend he is, at least his venomous tongue will cause your client to lose face. This is still the advantage of your client's ability to survive."

Harvey, the man in the suit, laughed and said: “How many fans of Max Henson do you think will remain after Chandler’s midnight talk show is launched?

Bingo!

There must be very few left!

And don't just say Dr. House!

Call in and compete with your clients in front of everyone listening. Dr. House is not the only one to compete with his sharp tongue skills!

There is another MAX with the same name!

She is an old fan of the radio station. She calls frequently and interacts frequently with your customers. She has always admired Max Henson and is regarded as the most loyal fan!

Even when Max Henson slandered the mother of a victim in this vicious way, as a woman, she did not punch him, and even cooperated with Max Henson to mock Detective Chuck.

With such a girl, you wouldn't say that she is also a friend of Chuck's and pretending to be a negative fan, right?

But if I remember correctly, after Detective Chuck really rescued the abducted Jamie, the first thing MAX said when he called again was, Mad Max, you are so bad!

Then he spat venomously at him for three minutes.

During this period, your customer repeatedly wanted to fight back, but unfortunately he was no match for a fan. In the end, he was so angry that he had no choice but to shut down the phone call interaction session.

How long do you think your customers can last in this situation?

Can you really afford it?"

The expression on female lawyer Emily's face suddenly changed.

Of course she knew that the fan named Harvey, who had the same name as her client, turned negative. This was one of the catalysts for the station to replace its previous lawyer with her.

"And you?"

The female lawyer Emily sat in the arms of Harvey, a man in a suit, and said with a sweet smile: "Do you really want to go to court?

You are a barrister at Lawyers Pearson Hardman, known as the best closing lawyer in New York!

Are you so free that you don't want to be busy with other cases, so you insist on fighting me with this case?"

"You know, customer demands are our goal..."

Harvey, the man in suit, smiled.

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by female lawyer Emily: "Stop talking nonsense! Are you Harvey Spector worthy of saying this?

You are famous for not liking to listen to what customers have to say, and as long as you say something, customers can only listen and agree!

No matter how many advantages you have in this case!

But it’s hard to win with $5 million in compensation!

Don't tell me you don't know what's going on here!

Now that you have forced the compensation to such a high level and it has become a precedent, will you let others pay so much in the future?

Therefore, it is in the interests of both of us to reduce the compensation to 2 million.

As long as you promise to persuade your client, then I guarantee you that I will handle the public apology.

Everyone can end this case and go do other interesting things ~ What do you think?"

"What you said makes sense."

Harvey, a man in a suit, closed his eyes and enjoyed the soft touch from the defendant's lawyer, but the words that came out of his mouth instantly cooled down the explosively ambiguous atmosphere: "But it's a pity that this is where Detective Chuck draws the line."

"So you can't?"

The female lawyer Emily stopped and mocked: "Can't you even handle an outsider who is not a client?"

"The outsider you talk about doesn't draw the line casually."

Harvey, a man in a suit, opened his eyes and smiled: "He is also responsible for supporting the situation... You have the ability to convince him! It's not that I underestimate you, you definitely can't do it either!"

"..."

The female lawyer Emily's face darkened.

Detective Chuck has high requirements for scientific experiment subjects, and is also well known in the gossip news.

Of course she knew that Harvey, the handsome man in suits, was mocking her for her appearance, which was relatively good for a lawyer.

Even with the bonus of a lawyer's professional uniform and aura, she probably still wouldn't be able to catch Chuck's eye.

And she also captured key information: the outsider she thought she could get rid of was actually willing to pay possibly more than $2 million just to play.

At this point, she finally figured out the ins and outs of Harvey the Suit Master.

It's a pity that this fact is not friendly to her.

So she stood up directly, pulled up the skirt chain behind her, straightened her clothes, changed her face and looked at Harvey, the man in the suit who was leaning back tactically: "In that case, let's meet in court!"

"as you wish."

Although Harvey, a suit expert, still had ideas, he was so proud that it was naturally impossible for him to ask for help in this regard. He watched the female lawyer Emily enter the bathroom, calmed down her restlessness, stood up, straightened her suit, and walked out.

A few days later.

court.

"Judge Abernea appears! Everyone stands!"

Following the bailiff's reminder, a judge walked in, stretched out his hand to all the people in the court who were standing, and said with a very humble smile: "No, everyone, please sit down."

Everyone sat down.

"God, the popularity is so high today."

Judge Abernea glanced at the packed courtroom and couldn't help but laugh.

"Your honor, I think it's because of me."

The defendant Max Henson, who appeared in court today, lay down on his back in the dock with a very arrogant and high-angle tactic.

"Yes, Mr. Henson, you are very popular."

The judge smiled.

"Thank you judge."

Max Henson laughed: "I just want a fair verdict, even though you and I have completely different political views."

"Your Honor, is Max Henson going to defend himself?"

Harvey, a man in a suit, stood up and mocked in opposition.

As shrewd as he is, he can naturally see Max Henson's plan.

On the surface, it is said that they have different political opinions, but behind the scenes, the plan is to use the method of publicly stating it to secretly force the judge not only to not target himself, but not even to make a truly fair judgment, but to favor himself.

But Judge Abernea is a liberal judge, and as we all know, what liberal judges like most is to show that they are fair through compromise.

As for how to compromise?

Naturally, it follows the trend of public opinion!

Max Henson himself has huge media influence, and now he says this in public. One can imagine where this compromise would have gone if he had not intervened to interrupt.

"It's okay, Mr. Spector."

The result was not as expected by Harvey, the suit expert. The judge directly expressed his thoughts: "It won't be a big deal if you are a little informal."

The suitman chuckled inwardly. If Max Henson had not had huge media influence, the judge would only say that the dignity of the judge cannot be violated in the slightest.

"Mr. Henson, I admit that we have different political views, but this court is not subject to political influence, and I will try my best to ensure fairness."

"Thanks."

Max Henson thanked the judge, and then glanced proudly at Harvey, the man in the suit, and Tim, the plaintiff.

Tim smiled back at this.

This made Max Henson's smile freeze.

He doesn't like this smile!

Under normal circumstances, ordinary people like Tim should be terrified under his proud smile.

"Damn Detective Chuck!"

He immediately thought of the fact that the female lawyer Emily told him, that is, as a detective, Chuck used the money ability that was difficult for him to use, which provided sufficient confidence for the accuser Tim.

This is the reason why Tim dared to respond like this!

Also, his recent state of embarrassment is all due to Detective Chuck!

This is not the first time he has slandered others, but it has never been so troublesome!

If Detective Chuck hadn't found Jamie's missing key person so quickly, and confirmed his slander of Jamie's mother Shelly, leaving him with a lot less room to maneuver, he would never have been in such a mess!

Now even ordinary people don't take him seriously!

So, he withdrew his proud gaze and looked at the female lawyer sitting next to him.

Female lawyer Emily nodded to him, then stood up and said to the judge: "Your Honor, based on the First Amendment to the Constitution, the defendant moved to dismiss the case. The plaintiff is trying to deprive Mr. Henson of his right to free speech!"

"No! Your Honor!"

Harvey, a man in a suit, stood up and retorted: "What we are suing is Mr. Max Henson for defamation and lying. I think everyone is very clear about this!"

"Your Honor, this is slander and lying!"

Female lawyer Emily stood up to refute.

The plaintiff's and defendant's lawyers thus began to continue the verbal exchange of words in court that they had not gone into that night.

The judge was so confused that he lowered his head and held his forehead to think for a while, then reached out to interrupt the two of them and said: "Mr. Spector, you said that based on the First Amendment of the Constitution, people have the right to free speech, but that does not include

lie!

I agree with your opinion!

But the verdict in this case will depend on simple evidence.

That is, you not only have to prove that Mr. Henson is lying, but you also have to prove that he knew it was a lie and he continued to lie regardless of the facts."

Female lawyer Emily and her client Max Henson looked at each other and smiled confidently.

This fact finding is very difficult.

You can prove that someone is lying, but it is very difficult to prove that someone is lying even though they know it is a lie.

Even if Chuck, the detective who claims to have the ability to read minds, testifies in court without any conflict of interest with Max Henson, he cannot be used as evidence to win the trust of the judge and jury.

So Max Henson felt that as long as he made up his mind and didn't let go, no one could do anything to him.

Not Harvey Spector, New York's most powerful closing lawyer!

Neither can Detective Chuck!

He said it!
