Despite having joint custody of the same cat, it was clear that Lisa  and Jungkook’s relationship had not improved significantly. Lisa’s last case had suffered a failure, so she paid more attention to her current case. She went through all the materials she could prepare in every detail, and interviewed as many employees as possible.

And there was no doubt that almost every employee’s concern was –
“Lawyer Manoban, we can win this case for sure, right?”

“I can’t make such a guarantee.”
Whenever they heard Lisa’s words, the response of all the employees was almost the same, “But I heard that you have prepared well. You have already figured out all the possible bargaining situations on the financial compensation for the company to dismiss us, and it is the company’s fault to dismiss us, so how come you still can’t guarantee that we can win this case?”

“This is the regulation of “Lawyer Practice Management Measures”. When lawyers undertake any case, they can’t guarantee to you the outcome of the case in an express or implied way. After all, all legal disputes are subjected to certain levels of legal risks.”
Sure enough, good medicine always tastes bitter. As soon as Lisa’s voice fell, the expressions on the faces of the employees were not very pleasing to see. After they finished talking to Lisa, one of the employees walked out of the conference room and saw Song Kang waiting outside, so they couldn’t help but complain.

“Brother Song, will there be any trouble with this case? My wife just gave birth to our second child and since we have no one to take care of the baby, she has to quit her job. Now the whole family is counting on me, but I am also in my forties. At this age, I don’t have any skills, and the new job is difficult to find. I have been working at Simon Paper for 19 years. If a normal company dismisses me, it should pay me 19 months of monthly salary, right? Now I’m counting on this money to cushion me for a year and a half, and then I’ll try to find another job in the meantime.”

Song Kang patted the other party’s shoulder, “Don’t worry, this lawyer BManobanis not as professional as lawyer Du. Lawyer Kim said that we will win. Just listen to what lawyer Kim says.”
Once the other party heard this, he was really happy: “I told you, this Bai lawyer’s face is too tender and looks …… unlike a lawyer. Lawyer Sujin Kim said we will win steadily, that’s good, that’s good.”

Lisa was unaware of this little episode that happened outside the door. She sent away the few employees and Song Kang, and checked the paperwork of 300 employees back and forth, only to have the receptionist call to inform her that she had a visitor.

When she got to the conference room, she realized it was Shin.
It had been some time since his case had ended, and his face still looked bad, but his eyes were not as dull as they had been at that time.
The first thing he said when he met Lisa was gratitude.

“Thank you, lawyer Manoban. I didn’t tell you the truth, yet you were still willing to refund my legal fees and even lent me money ……” As soon as he spoke, Shin’s eyes reddened, “Thank you for letting me know that even if I’m wrong, I still have time to pull back. This society isn’t cold, there is still warmth and kindness, and there are good people like you who are willing to accept me ……”

In Shin’s case, eventually Jungkook did not let him get a penny of financial compensation, and still insisted on firing him for cheating sick leave. He also reported to the hospital that his girlfriend Chen Jia had issued a fake sick leave note, but that was not the end of misfortunes for him. His father also died of a serious illness not long after.

During that period of time, Shin was at the lowest point in his life, and even thought of seeking death. In the end, Lisa found him and refunded the lawyer’s fees voluntarily, and also lent a sum of money to help him manage the funeral and get through the difficult time.
