"In other words, Aunt Elena and Uncle Li passed away in an accident half a year ago?"
In the cafe, Hazel's eyes were blank and unfocused, and her face was as pale as a sheet of paper. It was a look of hope that had been completely shattered. However, the little girl did not forget to comfort Li Mochen. "I'm sorry, André. I didn't know at all. Aunt Elena and Uncle Li are both good people. I think they will definitely be able to enter the Kingdom of Light. "
"Thank you for your blessing, but Hazel, you seem very disappointed."
Li Mochen fixed his eyes on Hazel, and a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes. "You don't think I can provide you with the help you want, do you?"
He already had a good impression of this little girl. From the time they met until now, Hazel's behavior and speech were very pleasing.
He could see that she was a very cultured girl with a good personality. Even in such a situation, she still maintained her sincerity and did not try to gain his sympathy by acting pitiful.
"That's not what I meant."
Hazel waved her little hand helplessly at first, but then she became weary and said honestly, "André, I don't think you're unreliable, but I think your current situation, André, is not much better than mine."
"That's still much better. At least I've inherited a company worth two to three million gold duns and half of the ownership of a villa. These assets are also enough to support my personal life. "
Li Mochen couldn't help but laugh. Then, he asked solemnly, "Hazel, I think the only way I can help you now is to get custody of you. So, I want to know, Hazel, what do you think? Are you willing to leave your current home and live with me? "
Hazel was stunned. She stared at Li Mochen in disbelief, and her eyes flashed with hesitation.
Li Mochen had read many people, and he could see the struggle in Hazel's heart at a glance. On one hand, the young girl was moved by his proposal, but on the other hand, she was worried that she had entrusted the wrong person. In addition, Hazel was probably worried that he was not capable enough to take custody of the girl from Jacques and his wife, which would probably make the situation of the girl even more difficult.
However, Li Mochen did not intend to explain anything. This could only be judged by Hazel himself.
"There is no need to worry, Hazel."
Li Mei could read the young girl's thoughts. She caressed the young girl's head lovingly. "I can guarantee that Ah Mo's finances are not a problem. It's enough to support the two of you. We will watch over him. He will be a good brother. Even if you don't believe me, you have to believe your Aunt Elena and Mr. Li. Ammo is their child. If we look at it from another angle and change the environment, how bad can the situation be? "
Hazel did not speak. Her eyes wandered between Li Mei and Li Mochen for a moment, and then looked at Qitai.
"Excuse me, sir. Are you the bodyguard hired by André?"
"I am an employee of Nathan Sports Group. According to the sponsorship contract signed between our company and Mr. Wildenstein, I am responsible for the personal protection of Mr. Wildenstein."
Qitai replied with a friendly smile, "You may not know this, but Mr. Wildenstein is an unparalleled genius in magic. In fact, I am no longer his opponent. That is why our company's Executive Paton values him very much. In addition, Mr. Wildenstein also has a noble character — "
This sentence not only surprised Hazel, but also surprised Li Mei. She looked at Li Mochen doubtfully. She only knew that her boss had signed a sponsorship contract with Nathan Sports Group and received the latter's support, but she did not know the level of Li Mochen's strength and talent.
Just as Qitai was trying his best to brag about Li Mochen, there was a sudden 'ding dang' sound at the door of the coffee shop. Li Mochen did not care at first. He thought it was a customer of the coffee shop, but then he saw from the corner of his eyes that it was Mike Ross who came in.
Li Mochen could not help but be secretly surprised. He thought that this guy was really fast. He had called the Pearson Darby Spector law firm before he walked into the coffee shop. In less than twenty minutes, this guy, Mike, had already appeared in front of him.
"I happen to be in the south of the City of Atlanta, very close to here."
Mike Ross casually explained and sat down next to Li Mochen. "I have a general understanding of the situation from Harvey, so let's go straight to the point. Your situation is indeed tricky, but it is not impossible. First of all, if we can find evidence of violence or even abuse against Miss Joelle, that would be the best. Second, we can find evidence of abuse of Hazel's child support, which can also convince the judge. Also, you can collect the opinions and relevant testimonies of the school teachers and Hazel's classmate. Of course, the neighbors of the Jax family can also provide us with strong help.
"Finally, the family situation of the Jax couple. I don't understand their situation now, so I can only give a brief explanation. I think if they lose their jobs or their jobs are not stable, it will be difficult for the family to take good care of Miss Joelle. Also, Mr. Jax is an alcoholic, right? As far as I know, these alcoholics are usually violent. We'd better be able to collect evidence to prove this. If we can do this, I have enough confidence to make the Jax couple lose their guardianship — "
Li Mochen's lips twitched slightly. The first few suggestions this guy mentioned were very normal. But the latter part was suspected of instigating.
Although Mike Ross's words were very vague, Li Mochen still understood.
Making the Jax couple lose their jobs and creating a violent incident involving Andy Jax — these were all things he could do now.
"Actually, it doesn't need to be so troublesome."
Hazel suddenly interrupted Mike Ross's speech. "I have collected some evidence, including their bills and several tapes. They are all hidden in my locker at school."
Li Mochen and the others couldn't help but look at each other. Li Mei's face showed obvious surprise. "But Hazel, since you have evidence, why didn't you tell the Social Service Bureau and the Youth Protection Center before? They have a way to help you get rid of that bitch Dani Jax. "
"But I'm not sure what kind of person will adopt me next."
Hazel looked calm. "My mother has a lot of relatives, so it's impossible for me to enter the orphanage. But most of my relatives are not good people. At least I have adapted to the Jax couple. They won't do anything excessive except humiliate me and make fun of me. But I don't know what will happen to the other people. I think it's better to maintain the status quo for the time being than to jump into the unknown. "
Li Mochen's eyes couldn't help but flash a strange light.
He liked this little girl even more. Not only was she smart, but she was also tolerant enough.
"That's a very smart way of doing things. But Hazel, since you are willing to take out this evidence, does that mean that you have agreed to be adopted by me?"
"Yes, Mr. Wildenstein."
Hazel took a deep breath and looked at Li Mochen seriously. "Please adopt me no matter what. Hazel will be very obedient and won't cause you any trouble in the future."
"As you wish!"
Li Mochen's lips twitched. At this time, he felt the "Divine Cloud Purple Gold Pagoda" in the sword bag behind him suddenly tremble violently, as if it was about to break out of the bag.
