Chapter 129 - No Prenuptial Agreement
Chapter 129: No Prenuptial Agreement
Jiang Rong’s tone changed, she said suddenly, “Actually, I was quite surprised at that time about Old Lu’s sudden marriage. When I heard the news, I thought that he would ask me to draft a prenuptial agreement. Who knew that after you got married, he never came to me.”
Xiang Xiaoyuan looked at her in astonishment.
What?!
What did she just hear??
The original owner and Lu Wanggui didn’t have a prenuptial agreement before they got married?!
Before Xiang Xiaoyuan transmigrated, even middle-class families wanted to sign a prenuptial agreement before they got married, let alone a rich man like Lu Wanggui. They wanted to guarantee their rights and interests in the marriage. After she came here, she never asked about this. She thought that based on Lu Wanggui’s status, he must have signed a prenuptial agreement with the original owner. She was already mentally prepared, unless Lu Wanggui decided to give her something, she would never reach out to him for money.
But now, Jiang Rong told her that there was no prenuptial agreement between her and Lu Wanggui?
What did this mean? It meant that from the day they got married, all the money he earned belonged to them! In other words, if she filed for divorce one day, she could legally split half of the money that Lu Wanggui earned during their marriage!
Xiang Xiaoyuan’s heart immediately beat like a drum.
For a rich person like Lu Wanggui, he would be making a huge profit every day or every minute. It was definitely not something that her small convenience store could compare to. If they were to divorce one day, she might even be able to get a large amount of money and become a rich woman in no time.
She instantly lost her composure.
Jiang Rong saw that she could not hide the surprise on her face, she could not help but smile and said, “With his current status, to be able to do this, it seems that he really cares about you. I’m his lawyer and an old friend for many years. The last time you guys got married, I was overseas on a business trip and could not make it back in time. This time, I must give you a gift to wish you guys a long life together.”
Xiang Xiaoyuan came back to her senses and silently digested this shocking news. When she heard Jiang Rong’s words, she pursed her lips and smiled. “Thank you.”
Jiang Rong stood up and suddenly thought of something. She took out her phone and handed it to Xiang Xiaoyuan. “Let’s add each other as friends. If you have any other inquiries, you can look for me anytime.”
After that, she took out a gold-plated business card from her briefcase. “If you can’t find me, you can also look for my assistant. She’s also a very professional lawyer.”
“Thank you so much.” Xiang Xiaoyuan took the business card. “When there’s time, I’ll treat you to a meal.”
Jiang Rong readily agreed.
The two of them had a pleasant conversation. She understood the content of the contract that Jiang Rong drafted. This gave Xiang Xiaoyuan even more motivation to make money. When she made a lot of money in the future, she would hire a professional lawyer like Jiang Rong to help her.
After Jiang Rong left the meeting room, Xiang Xiaoyuan sat on the chair alone. Now that she was alone in the meeting room, she quietly thought about the shocking news that she had just received.
Why didn’t Lu Wanggui have a prenuptial agreement?
She thought of three possibilities.
First, the original owner didn’t agree. But Xiang Xiaoyuan quickly ruled out this possibility. From what she knew, the original owner was a timid and soft person. She wouldn’t fight with Lu Wanggui over such a thing.
Second, Lu Wanggui loved the original owner so much that he was willing to take the risk. However, to be honest, Xiang Xiaoyuan really could not tell how much Lu Wanggui loved the original owner. It could be that she was ignorant, or that the love of a rich person was different than that of an ordinary person. She was too ignorant to see his love for the original owner.
However, from the bits and pieces that she read in the novel and the fact that Lu Wanggui did not even make a single call home after they got married, it did not seem likely that that’s the case.
Love could not be concealed or hidden. No matter how reserved Lu Wanggui was, he was still a person.
Therefore, she ruled out this possibility.
Finally, the last possibility was that Lu Wanggui was confident that the original owner would not divorce him. Or even if the original owner divorced him, there would not be any money disputes.
Hence, Xiang Xiaoyuan had another question. Why did the original owner marry Lu Wanggui?
She suddenly felt that the marriage between the original owner and Lu Wanggui was strange, but she could not tell what was strange about it.
Xiang Xiaoyuan suspected that she was overthinking things, but she did not like the doubtful feeling in her heart. She mentally put “understanding the original owner and Lu Wanggui’s past” into her future plans, she reminded herself not to forget to find the truth about this marriage while she was earning money.
