Chapter 254
Chapter 254 “I have a son and a daughter. They are four years old.” Adina was honest. “I‘ve raised my children alone for four years, and their father has approached me recently. He wants to take custody of them. Do I have a chance of winning?”
Brenden tried very hard to suppress his shock.
He initially thought that there was something between Duke and Ms. Daugherty. It looked like he had the wrong expectation.
He pushed his glasses up and finally remembered that he was a lawyer. He schooled his expression and said, “Ms. Daugherty, please tell me everything about the kids, their father, and how you‘re raising the kids at the moment.”
Adina nodded and sat down across from Brenden. “Five years ago, because of an accident, I ended up sleeping with the kids‘ father. Eight months later, I gave birth to my kids prematurely, and I brought them out of the country. I‘ve been raising the kids alone over the last four years, and their father has never shown up. He has also never paid any child support. The kids don‘t know who their father is. “The man is Tyson Osborne. He‘s an entrepreneur, and Osborne Corporation is worth about $ 5,000,000,000.” Brenden quickly recorded everything with his pen. Meanwhile, Duke was holding a teacup not far away, and a profound light flashed in his eyes. Adina told Brenden whatever she knew. “So, the children‘s father is a successful entrepreneur, and his family is very rich. On top of that, to outsiders, he has a harmonious family,” Brenden concluded. “Ms. Daugherty, your family is rich as well, but you‘re single, and the children have been living in a single–parent family.”
He gave his glasses a push before he resumed. “The judge will make a decision based on the children‘s mental health development, and they‘ll most likely give custody to the father.” Adina curled her fingers. “Will the law still favor him even though he hasn’t put in any effort and money for the kids all these years?”
Brenden nodded. “If he‘s known of their existence but has refused to take responsibility, the court won‘t favor him. But from your explanation, I understand that you gave birth to the kids without the father‘s knowl
Adina pursed her lips.
When she first found out that she was pregnant, she had thought about aborting her babies.
However, once she lay down on the operating table, she suddenly did not want them to be gone. She recklessly got off the operating table and ran away. She would rather be locked up than lose her babies.
She knew this day would come, but she never expected it to happen so early. The kids were just four years old. She could not lose Alden and Melody. Adina‘s throat was dry. “I still can‘t salvage the situation even with your help?” Brenden slowly said, “I have a very high success rate in lawsuits, and there is a chance of salvaging the situation, but I think you want your probability of winning to be 100%.”
Adina nodded. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
If she did not want it to be 100%, why would she spend so much effort to come and look for Brenden?
“‘There‘s a method for you to win custody 100%,“Brenden said. There was a glint in Adina‘s eyes. Please tell me, Mr. Watson.” “Ms. Daugherty, you‘re the children‘s mother, and you‘ve raised them for four years on your own, so the children will definitely choose to be with you. If you can find them a father, the court will definitely let you keep the children. When Adina heard what Brenden said, her expression suddenly changed. She could do anything for the kids, except… get married. She could not
just marry any man. “A fake marriage is still a marriage. You can get a divorce after the lawsuit,” Brenden said indifferently. “Of course, if you refuse to take this suggestion, just pretend as though I never mentioned it. I‘ll try my best to win this lawsuit for you.”
