Chapter 91 Bail
The next day, at ten o'clock in the morning, Song Ya sat by the phone and waited quietly.
Alicia Flock, his expensively hired defense attorney, suggested keeping a low profile and, as stars, neither he nor Lowry Jr. will be present at today's bail hearing, lest there be greater media interest in Tony's case.
This kind of hearing does not require any court debate. The defendants line up one by one and are brought before the judge. minute.
Next to her, Emily watched little Freddie sitting on the floor playing with toys, while Aunt Susie and Connie waited and chatted.
"I heard from Tyron that GD has won a big victory recently, and they secretly transferred a group of gunmen from Mississippi..." Connie spread the gossip.
"Stop talking about this, Bichi."
Aunt Susie scolded: "Don't you think we are not annoying enough? How is Tyron's business?"
"It's not great, but it's enough. When the child is born, we will be the most complete and happy family in Nancheng." Connie proudly showed off while rubbing her big belly.
Aunt Susie, who was poked in the sore spot, hummed twice and fell silent.
Hayden entered the door and handed the newly purchased mobile phone to Song Ya, "You make a list, and I will notify you of your new number."
Song Ya wrote a list and handed it to him, and then played with this Motorola MicroTAC alpha, which is much smaller and lighter than common bricks. The microphone is made into a clamshell, which can be folded when not in use, and the lower half of the dial button is blocked. , the thin antenna can also be stowed away, and there is no problem in putting it in a suit pocket, but it will be a bit uncomfortable, because the battery behind it is still very thick.
The price of being small and light is more than three thousand knives spent.
"No Mira?" Hayden asked after reading the list.
"She's always holding on to the phone and making endless calls."
Song Ya confessed to him, "Tell her briefly about my troubles, and tell her not to come to Chicago to surprise me at this time. Now I am being targeted by tabloid reporters."
"Understood." Hayden agreed.
The phone rang at home, and Song Ya picked up the phone, "Goodman? How is it? OK...you thank Alicia for me, and then take Tony home."
He put down the microphone and let out a long sigh of relief, "Tony was released on bail."
"Yeah!" Aunt Susie and Connie celebrated happily.
He stood up and observed the street outside through the window. There seemed to be no paparazzi. He took his mobile phone with him and walked out the door with Hayden.
"Aren't you going to welcome Tony home with us?" Aunt Susie asked.
"He has been awarded for his meritorious service, and he still needs to be greeted..." Song Ya complained, "I still have to wipe his ass."
Don't look at the black women in Nancheng who are rude to boys like Tony who make trouble outside, but their concept of abiding by the law is not very strong. If a man is caught committing a crime, it is bad luck. When they got home, they were doing well outside, so they didn't care how the money came from...
Go to the underground parking lot to sit in Hayden’s Dodge Dynasty. He put on a peaked cap, lay almost flat on the back seat, and carefully observed the rearview mirror. The paparazzi who follow celebrities usually ride motorcycles, so that they can move freely in the streets and alleys. Well, no trace of them was found near home.
Hayden deliberately went around a few times before parking the car downstairs at the Lockhard and Gardner law firm.
They couldn't help but be careless. The defense attorney Alicia Flock introduced by Claire was the wife of Cook County State Attorney Peter Flock. good deal.
Of course, just being released on bail is not enough. The next court session is the highlight. Tony was released on bail easily. Alicia has proved her strength. Now it is Song Ya's turn to prove her strength to the other party.
This kind of transaction is not something that can be paid off with a defense fee.
He and Hayden met with Alicia and Will Gardner in the office of each other's named partners, the "Gardner" in Lockhard and Gardner.
"Hey! Big star..."
Will Gardner is a handsome white man in his thirties, with a free and easy temperament and a lot of passion. He is more like a Wall Street elite than a stereotypical lawyer.
"Hello, Will, hello, Alicia." Song Ya shook hands with them respectively.
Alicia Flock is also in her thirties, with a well-proportioned figure, perfect textbook makeup and clothing, beautiful long chestnut hair, and a professional smile always hanging on her delicate face.
"Is Tony home yet?" Will pointed to the sofa, "Sit down, please."
"You should be home now, thank you Will." Song Ya and Hayden sat down.
"You should thank Alicia even more."
"Of course." Song Ya smiled at Alicia.
"I'm going out when I'm fine, and I still have to prepare the defense draft for the trial next week..." Alicia left with the file in her arms.
"Can we talk about your acquisition plan now?" Will opened the door for Alicia, and then came back and sat opposite Song Ya.
"Yes, my A+ audio company is going to buy Warren Brothers Synthesizers in New Jersey, and now the problem is that the owner of the company, AW Investments, is blocked by the local union..."
Song Ya introduced the situation one by one.
There is no free lunch in the world. In order to help Tony get rid of the crime, Song Ya handed over the acquisition case to the comprehensive law firm where Alicia works. If the acquisition is successful, the legal affairs of A+ Audio will also be handed over to them in the future. Goodman has nothing to say after losing a big business, who told him not to go to court.
The anti-Shuangteng team discussed a rough acquisition plan. In terms of remuneration, Lockhard and Gardner Law Firm will get 5% of the acquisition price, and then $100,000 will be able to cover the 700 yuan offered by AW Investment Company. No matter how much the purchase price is cut, Song Ya will also pay them a certain percentage of rewards.
"Then as agreed, we'll see you in New Jersey on February 22."
After the contract was faxed to Goodman for review, both parties signed it, and Will offered to extend his hand.
"See you in New Jersey."
In Hayden's car, "Go back to the recording studio." Song Ya rubbed the center of her eyebrows tiredly. She didn't sleep much in the past two days, and the recording process was also delayed. "You put more pressure on SBK."
"Don't worry, I will let them settle the payment as soon as possible." Hayden drove the car to the parking lot downstairs of the recording studio.
Across the street, two white paparazzi in leather coats were sitting on a motorcycle. Seeing Song Ya get off the car, they grabbed the camera and rushed over to press the shutter indiscriminately.
"Hey, APLUS! I heard your brother was released on bail, have you seen him?"
"Whose gun is that? Yours or little Lowry's?"
"I heard that your chance to release a song was won for you by your elder brother who was a follower to Little Lowry, right?"
"Have you ever been Little Lowry's follower? APLUS!"
"Hey! How about singing to us too?"
"Come and smile at the camera, APLUS!"
"Damn paparazzi." Hayden protected him and walked into the building, "Don't pay attention to them, these paparazzi make money by angering celebrities."
"I will not."
Song Ya was too lazy to answer the paparazzi's nonsense, and went upstairs to his recording studio. He wanted to start recording songs immediately to catch up with the progress, but he suddenly felt very tired, "I'll go to sleep first, and let them not disturb me." He said to Al Said.
Back in the office, he lay on the sofa with all his clothes on, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
The quality of sleep this time was very good, and he was fighting fiercely with Harry in his dream, when suddenly several gunshots outside the building woke him up.
"What's going on?" he asked loudly, rushing out of the office.
"The direction of the gunshot is GD's nearby sales point." Al, who was lying on the window looking around, replied: "It's either a land grab, or it was swept away by the police. It doesn't matter. Go on and sleep, this kind of thing is very common."
