His Unveiled Passion
Chapter 8
Chapter 8
A year ago, Molly had broken up with her boyfriend, and he handed her a bill demanding repayment. The bill showed that throughout their two-year relationship, he had transferred more than 50 thousand dollars to her.
Molly refused to pay, and her ex-boyfriend sued her. She had come to the law firm for help, but the other lawyers were all out in court. Tessa was the only one available.
"It wasn't like that at all." Molly sobbed with heaving breaths. "We lived together for two years. We agreed from the start to split the rent, utilities, and living expenses evenly. He said he would transfer me 2000 dollars each month to cover the expenses, and I would contribute the same amount."
"I didn't think too much of it at the time and just did what he said," she said, continuing her story. "Who knew that he would demand I pay him back after we broke up? He claimed those transfers were monetary gifts meant for marriage. Now that we are no longer together, he said I should return the money.
"But that money was for everyday expenses! How can it be considered a gift? The actual gifts he gave me over the past two years didn't even add up to 500 dollars, so how dare he sue me?"
Molly's sobbing intensified the more she spoke. "That 2000 dollars a month were living expenses from my parents, too. I'm just a university student, so where am I supposed to come up with 50 thousand dollars to pay him back?
"I don't dare to tell my parents, either. If they found out I was living with a guy off-campus, my dad would kill me. Tessa, please help me. I'm really at my wit's end..."
It was ironic, really. Molly was a law student, and she actually fell for the scumbag's tricks. It truly was a textbook case of a love-blinded woman falling for a jerk, getting swindled, and losing everything in the
process.
Tessa sighed helplessly and greatly pitied the young woman in front of her.
Normally, lawyers wouldn't take on cases from clients who cannot even afford their fees, but Tessa was different. Not only did she take on the case, but she even lent Molly the money to pay the legal fees. Tessa had thought at the time that Molly's situation was already difficult enough. If no one helped her, she feared Molly might act recklessly out of despair.
Lawyer fees weren't paid directly to the representing attorney. The payment was instead transferred by the client to the law firm, after which it would be paid to the lawyer as a salary.
At that time, Tessa had just started her legal career and was earning only 5000 dollars a month as an associate lawyer at the firm. She added Molly on WhatsApp without any hesitation and lent her the money to cover the legal fees.
Tessa worked hard to gather crucial evidence after taking on the case. She won the lawsuit in the end, and Molly was both impressed and grateful. Upon graduating from university, Molly came to the firm to work as Tessa's assistant.
