The next afternoon, Charlotte received a phone call.

The person on the other end reported the latest updates on the Gibson Corporation.

“Several creditors have filed claims in court. As of now, the company’s total debt has reached 1.3 billion dollars.

“As the majority shareholder, Zac Gibson is being accused of abusing the legal distinction between corporate and personal liability to evade debts. Multiple creditors have jointly submitted evidence, requesting that he be held personally accountable for the company’s liabilities.

“All real estate under Zac’s name has already been seized by the court, along with any high–value personal assets. His bank accounts have also been frozen.

“Earlier this morning, Monica Miller met with a lawyer to draft a divorce agreement.‘

Charlotte wasn’t surprised.

Monica had spent her entire life as a pampered society wife. There was no way she could endure the kind of hardship they were facing now.

“Which lawyer did she hire?” Charlotte asked.

“Attorney Gemma Garcia from S&G Law Firm.”

S&G Law Firm.

She knew it well. Charlotte had resigned from the firm herself after Vivian became an investor.

After Vivian was cast out of the Jasper family, Sean investigated her finances. The Jasper family’s elite legal team recovered the investment she had made into the firm.

As for Gemma, Charlotte remembered her clearly.

Gemma had a terrible temper. She was notorious for being a toxic boss who lashed out at her assistants whenever she was even slightly dissatisfied at work. The smallest inconvenience could sether off, and she would unleash a verbal tirade on whoever was closest.

Jenny had been on the receiving end of her wrath more times than Charlotte could count. She had cried in the breakroom more than once.

According to other coworkers, Gemma had driven away multiple assistants. Most couldn’t last more than a month. One particularly bold assistant even quit after the first day, walking out without taking a cent of her paycheck.

Jenny, unfortunately, had no choice but to stick around for a year after she registered as a legal intern. She had nowhere else to go.

That entire year, she was basically a punching bag, constantly bullied and berated.

Thankfully, those days were behind her. At Ascend Law Firm, Jenny had found her footing. These days, she came into work with a smile and left full of energy.

Hearing Gemma’s name, Charlotte narrowed her eyes and asked, “Has Mark agreed to the divorce yet? Have they come to an agreement?”

“No,” the caller replied. “Last night, Monica and Mark got into a huge fight at the hospital. They argued so loudly the entire floor heard it. This morning, she went straight to the lawyer to draft the paperwork.”

Charlotte said calmly, “Mark probably won’t sign it. Monica will likely go the litigation route. Keep a close eye on her side. I want to be informed the moment there’s any movement.”

“Understood.”
