I resolutely entrusted all matters to the lawyer. I had no intention of meeting that family. After all, I knew the nature of that family very well. They were nothing more than a group of rogues and legal illiterates. Such people are very likely to do extreme things, and I was too lazy to tangle with them. Therefore, I chose to hand over all matters to professional lawyers, and they were happy to accept it. After all, the remuneration I offered was quite generous.

One day, I received a call from an old friend who I used to work with. He invited me to a business dinner and hoped that I could accompany him. Although I had sold the company, I still had a wide network of contacts in the industry, and many people knew me. After being idle at home for many days, I was eager to go out, so I accepted his invitation.

However, when I stepped into the banquet hall, I unexpectedly met my sister-in-law Joyce . When she saw me, she showed an angry look on her face. After all, her family had just received a court summons a few days ago, and they might not have time to deal with the lawsuit during this period. She stared at me as if she wanted to eat me alive.

" Justin , why are you here? Aren't you bankrupt? What qualifications do you have to attend such a high-end banquet?" Joyce pointed at me and questioned me.

I glanced at her indifferently. She was dressed up gorgeously. Over the years, she had used the money I gave her to curry favor with many wealthy women, so she was qualified to attend such high-end business banquets. I only heard about this later.

I glanced at her coldly and asked, "You don't want everyone to know that Justin is bankrupt, do you?"

Suddenly, Joyce stared at me and threatened: "If you withdraw the lawsuit, I won't tell anyone about this. Otherwise, you will be embarrassed at today's party!" I looked at her and smiled. "No need to withdraw the lawsuit. You and Ronald have swallowed my money over the years, and I'm waiting to use it to pay off my debts!" I said with a smile and turned to leave. However, Joyce suddenly grabbed my hand.

"Everyone, come and see. This is the prodigal son. He squandered all the family fortune and is in debt. He also cheated my dad out of his house and my family's money!" Joyce's voice echoed throughout the banquet hall, attracting everyone's attention.

She looked at me smugly and said viciously, "If you don't let me live a good life, I will ruin your reputation!"

them , some were the organizers of today's banquet, and my friend Jack . Jack and I are old acquaintances. My company was able to sell for a good price thanks to his matchmaking. As soon as he came, he looked at me with an inquiring look.

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed Jack about those little things at home!" I shook my head with a wry smile.

Jack smiled and said it was okay. At this time, Joyce's voice came from the side again: "He is a bankrupt, what qualifications does he have to stand here? You better be careful, don't be fooled by him! He came to this party, maybe just to cheat money."

"How could Justin go bankrupt? He just sold his company for 500 million!" Many people who knew my background said with a smile. They looked at Joyce as if she was a joke.

"What?" Joyce was stunned.
