After the divorce, I started to transfer

Chapter 832 The Tragic Ex

The biggest function of family trust is to achieve asset isolation.

In layman's terms, after you set up this family trust now, whether you go bankrupt, divorced, or die unexpectedly in the future, the trust can still operate as usual, and the beneficiaries can continue to benefit according to your original wishes.

Therefore, many rich people will do this before they get married, so as to avoid their assets being divided by their partners after divorce in the future.

Or come to such a hand before going bankrupt, even if the debt is collected later, it can ensure that the family's life is worry-free.

The reason why Chen Feng set up a family fund before was nothing more than to ensure the safety of his own assets, so that even if he died unexpectedly, he could still guarantee the life of his family and future generations and give them enough financial security.

But obviously he had confused the concept of family fund and family trust before.

The degree of freedom of family funds is much higher than that of family trusts. The fund can be suspended at any time or the money in it can be redistributed, but family trusts are not.

If Chen Feng entrusted the money, it would be completely entrusted by the trust organization, and it would be very difficult for him to get it back.

Both have advantages and disadvantages, but according to Chen Feng's situation, it is certain that family trust is more suitable for him.

But in order to achieve his purpose of establishing a trust, the trustee, that is, the trust institution, must be reliable.

Otherwise, if the trust organization explodes, the client will suffer a great loss.

Of course, if the trust rules are designed before the establishment of the trust, the possibility of thunderstorms is still very small, and the risk will not be great.

This requires the help of an experienced lawyer in this area.

Frank claimed to be a senior lawyer in this area. He recommended several trust agencies to Chen Feng, saying that they all cooperated with their law firms and had a good reputation.

Chen Feng asked for the information of these trust organizations, and said that he would have to go back and think carefully before making a decision.

After leaving the law firm, Brenna left with him.

In the car, Brenna asked, "Are you going to entrust my father to set up a family trust?"

Chen Feng asked back: "What do you think?"

Brenna said without much hesitation: "I don't want you to hand over this case to my father."

"Oh, why?" Chen Feng asked in surprise.

"Because I don't know if my father can handle this matter well and satisfy you? I don't want you to have full trust in him because of my relationship. I can't guarantee that he is worthy of such a big thing entrusted to you. I also don't want him to affect the relationship between the two of us."

It's normal for Bryna to have concerns.

After all, this involves 500 million US dollars, and it is still a trust, which is related to the vital interests of him, his family, and the family for decades to come, and has a great relationship.

He was very satisfied with Brina's statement, which showed that she was not at least 100% on her father's side.

Chen Feng said with a smile: "If your father knows what you said, he will definitely be very sad. You, a daughter, don't believe his character and professional ethics."

Brenna defended: "It's not that I don't believe in his professional ethics and character, but I'm afraid that if he doesn't handle this well. I know this family trust is too important to you and your family, and nothing can be done. Bad."

Chen Feng smiled and said, "Your dad gave me a very good first impression. Even when we met for the first time, I still trust him. At least he is very professional, isn't he? In Melika, I only know him as a lawyer now." In addition, it is your father, and it is only natural for me to trust him. However, your concerns are not wrong. Therefore, in addition to asking your father to be my lawyer, I plan to hire another lawyer as an assistant , Let the two of them help me design this family trust together, and entrust them to handle my matter well."

"Two lawyers." Brina said after thinking for a while, "It's not impossible. But, where do you go to find a second reliable lawyer?"

Chen Feng smiled and said, "Don't worry about that. I'll ask a friend from Houston for help. She's a policeman and must know many lawyers."

Of course, Chen Feng was talking about Lucy. With her help to introduce a reliable lawyer, it shouldn't be difficult.

"Her? Is she a Melika too?" Brina asked curiously.

Chen Feng didn't hide anything, nodded and said, "Yes, she is a native of Houston, a family of police officers, and it shouldn't be difficult to help me find a lawyer."

"Oh, the female police officer, is she pretty?" Brina's tone was unavoidably a little acidic.Even if Chen Feng wasn't her boyfriend, even if she didn't plan to have fun with Chen Feng from the beginning.

But now knowing that Chen Feng met another Melika woman, he still felt a little sour in his heart.

Of course, Chen Feng could hear the change in her tone, and said with a smile: "She looks okay, and her facial features are okay. It's just that her body is too strong, and she is full of muscle lumps, which is not my style. So, don't think too much about it." .”

"I didn't think much of it, I was just curious," Bryna said.

Chen Feng didn't argue with her, instead he changed the subject and asked, "Will you go back to the hotel with me?"

Brenna shook her head slightly and said, "I still have some things to do today, so I won't accompany you to the hotel first, it will be later, maybe at night I will be able to go to the hotel to accompany you."

"That's fine, if you have something to do, go and do it first." Chen Feng said indifferently.

"If you have anything to do, just contact me. I will try my best to come over as soon as possible to accompany you."

"No need, you can do your own thing."

It's okay for Chen Feng to be alone in the hotel, and he can easily pass the time by swiping his phone.It's just his attitude that makes Brenna feel a little lost.

She didn't speak anymore. Seeing this, Chen Feng took out his mobile phone and called Lucy directly.

"Chen, why did you call me suddenly? What's the matter?"

After receiving Chen Feng's call, Lucy asked directly after answering the call.She knew very well that it was impossible for Chen Feng to call her for no reason.

"I want to set up a family trust, and I need a professional lawyer in this area. Do you know any reliable ones?"

Chen Feng also directly stated the purpose of his call.

"I know a lot of lawyers, but I really don't know if they are good at what you said. How did you think of setting up a family trust? Are you planning to get married?"

"Of course not, I'm just in case, in case I go bankrupt in the future, or suddenly burp, don't you think? Life is full of variables, just like the last time we went to buy a treadmill, who would have thought Got shot."

Chen Feng casually said that he had been shot, but when Brina, who was driving, heard this, he couldn't help exclaiming, "God, did you get shot? When did it happen? Why didn't you tell me?"

Of course Lucy on the other end of the phone heard it too, she couldn't help curling her lips, and asked on the phone: "Chen, is this Brenna?"

"Yes, she is Brenna." Chen Feng said to Lucy first, then turned to Brenna who was driving and said, "The shooting was an accident, I was not injured at all."

Brina took one look at him and said, "Then you're in luck. God bless you."

Only then did Chen Feng continue to say to Lucy: "Then please help me find out. You need a lawyer who is familiar with how to set up a family trust. The professional is better and the reputation is better. The price is negotiable. In addition, I need to tell you in advance that I am in Los Angeles. Bian has hired a lawyer. At that time, two lawyers will help me set up a family trust."

"Okay, I see. I'll make inquiries for you later and give you an answer as soon as possible." Lucy readily agreed.

"Well, that's it, I won't disturb your work."

"Well, I do work. Let's talk later."

Soon the two ended the call.

Brenna said, "I'm curious about this woman. What's her name? I'll get to know her someday."

Chen Feng and I said casually: "Her name is Lucy, she has a good temper and a sense of justice. She should be a good policeman."

"Oh, is it?" Brina first expressed slight doubts, and then added, "But she should be a good person if you can see her."

Chen Feng smiled and said nothing.

Not long after, the hotel where he was staying arrived. Chen Feng got off the car at the entrance of the hotel, and waved goodbye to Brenna.

Chen Feng went back to the hotel room and swiped his phone to entertain himself, he didn't feel bored at all.

But Brenna drove for more than half an hour to the detention center and met her ex-boyfriend Chen Yuanyu who was under criminal detention.

He had just come out of the hospital two days ago. He was shot in the leg and spent more than half a month recuperating in the hospital. But yesterday he "committed a crime" and was arrested by the police on the spot and sent to the detention center.

The case he committed this time is simple and simple, but complicated and complicated.

To put it simply, he was involved in two charges of strong point and possession of contraband.

To put it a bit more complicated, Chen Yuanyu thought he was innocent, but in fact he not only possessed and smoked contraband on the day of the incident, but also raped and injured an underage black girl.

After the girl was violated, she found a chance to hide in the toilet and called the police. The police arrived soon, broke in, and arrested Chen Yuanyu on the spot.

Chen Yuanyu understood the law. He knew that he was in serious trouble this time. After all, he had a criminal record in Longguo, and it was also a prostitution record.

Therefore, he immediately thought of his ex-girlfriend Brenna's father, Lawyer Frank, and her uncle who was the sheriff.

He had a close relationship with Brina before, and he knew her family very well.

If he can seek the help of Brina and her family, he may be exonerated, at least with a light sentence.

Otherwise, according to his current crimes, he would not be able to escape for ten or eight years.

After he was taken to the detention center yesterday, he called Brenna immediately.

Originally, he could also ask his good friend Mary (Zhenia) for help, but this matter is disgraceful after all. In addition, after he was discharged from the hospital, Mary said that she would go to the Gentleman's Country for something, and then cut off contact with him.

He can only turn to Brenna for help now.

Fortunately, Brenna's cell phone number has not changed. Yesterday he cried bitterly to Brenna on the phone for a long time, expressed his repentance and apology to her, and then begged her to come to the detention center today.

When he thought about it, Brina was indeed a very soft-hearted woman, if he could continue to coax her, maybe he could get her forgiveness.

Then, of course, Brenna went out of her way to get him off the hook.

"Linna, it's really great to see you again. I... I thought I would never see you in this life."

As soon as the two sat down face to face, Chen Yuanyu started his performance, and tears came as soon as he said it.

And Brenna looked at him expressionlessly, without any fluctuations in her expression.

Chen Yuanyu saw that something was wrong, immediately made persistent efforts, and began to cry bitterly: "Linna, thank you very much for coming to see me, I am really ashamed. If possible, I want to use the rest of my life to make up for you, please give I have a chance to redeem you."

But it's a pity that Brenna still watched his performance blankly.

This annoyed Chen Yuanyu, her eyes and expression made him feel like a clown.

"Linna, I have no choice but to contact you this time. You know, I don't have any friends here. The only one who is close to me is you. Apart from you, I can't think of another person who can help me ..."

"Stop!" Brenna finally interrupted his one-man show, "This is the end of your show. I want to tell you that the reason I came to see you is because I want to test my heart, right? Still full of hatred for you? Are you still unable to let go of the past? Now I know."

After saying this, Brenna stood up and turned around to leave.

After Chen Yuanyu was stunned for a moment, he quickly stood up from his seat and shouted at Brenna: "Wait a minute, Lina, I have something to say to you."

But Brenna left without looking back. Chen Yuanyu wanted to get up and chase after him a little excitedly, but the two guards next to him came up and grabbed his arms firmly, unable to move.

Chen Yuanyu could only watch Brenna's back disappearing through the door with pain and despair on his face.

Without Brenna's help, even if he spends money to hire a reliable lawyer, it will be difficult to reverse the case.

After walking out of the detention center, Brina let out a light breath, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

What she told Chen Yuanyu just now was the truth. The reason why he came to see him in the detention center this time was to feel if he had really let go of the unbearable past between him and himself.

Facts have proved that she really let go.

That past has been tormenting her like a nightmare for more than a year.

Well now, she finally let go.

If there is no accident, Chen Yuanyu, a scumbag, will also be punished as he should.

And this matter has to be said that Zhenia handled it beautifully, which made her think clearly, and all her hatred for Chen Yuanyu was put down.

Sometimes revenge can be really relaxing.

To put it simply, Chen Yuanyu's imprisonment this time was caused by Genia, including the last time he was shot in the thigh by a gangster just after he came to Los Angeles, it was Genia who asked someone to do it.

The same is true for the female "victim" this time. She is acquainted with Genia, and she is actually a girl who loves to play. She also knows about Brina's tragic experience, and Genia gave her enough compensation. , so this game was done very cooperatively.

Seeing Chen Yuanyu's downcast and weeping appearance just now, although Brenna was disgusted, she still felt very happy.

He didn't think it was too cruel to do to Chen Yuanyu. Thinking of her child who died before birth, it would not be too much to kill him, let alone let him sit in prison for ten or eight years.
