"Yes, Mr. Wong, that is Mr. Chou or someone calling from his personal phone at his office. I doubt it's not the man himself. He needs to maintain client confidentiality sir."

He rolled his eyes as the old man's chipper tone came through again. It wasn't a pleasant conversation as the man was bragging about all the fail safes he had thought of instead of Henry. Henry was grateful that he had not straight had the old man raise his voice like he was a child, but the mocking undertone to his voice was evident as he spoke on the subject. He could imagine the old man pinching the bridge of his nose while there were papers splayed across his desk. Henry was grateful though that Chou was not blaming him for having a marriage off the cuff while reminding Henry that he was protected. Henry's mood was gloomy as the lawyer's voice was still chipper. Henry explained Ellie's ideas on utilizing an annulment instead of a publically mediated divorce. Mr. Chou positively purred into his phone as he heard that Ellie had studied pre-law at NYU.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

"It's such a shame that you're not considering to try to make it work instead of leaving her so quickly. I will however have to speak with a couple of my colleges about dissolving the religious aspect of your marriage. I need to have a lawyer to specializes in that type of lawyer." Chou's voice was hesitant as he continued. "I'm not really in familiar territory here so please take this advice with a grain of salt. But from what I remember with the little bits and bobs that I have heard from colleagues, the New York Law on this is that this situation is delicate. If you do decide to try this method, Mr. Wong, I'm afraid it will have to be seen that you and Ms. Chen have been married for a while. You're also going to need to have a doctor say that the problem is something that cannot be resolved. Remember too sir, that once this process has become, the actual annulment will take a bit to get through. It might take up to six months, since you have no other people to have a say in this matter."

Henry relaxed into his chair as the words served to calm him. It was amazing to think in six months it would be as if this had never happened. This was fantastic news. He could become a reputed bachelor again. Henry could be with anyone which whom he wanted. It was a bit of nuisance to both himself and Ellie, but it was better than longer. "I really appreciate you telling me this Mr. Chou. This has brought me much relief in a time of great stress."

The voice on the opposite line grew serious as Mr. Chou said, "I wish you could relax, but it would be wise if you start to prepare for the future. If you do go through with this path, you would be unattached to Ms. Chen, but you could get into a lawsuit with your relatives over your inheritance with the stipulation that you were not married at all. This would mean that you would lose the company on the claim that you did not stick to the words of your father in his will."
