Chapter 910: Did the Two Lawyers Hit It Big?

At that, Matt turned to Foggy. “The purpose of this donation is very clear. It’s for the poor people in Clinton who suffered losses in the previous explosions. Foggy, did you mention Elena to someone?”

Foggy quickly shook his head in denial. He didn’t dare claim such “great credit.” “No, I really didn’t do it. I don’t know anyone rich at all…”

Looking at Karen’s doubtful gaze and Matt’s dark glasses, he suddenly understood. “No, I know a lot of rich people, but none of them are this conscientious. Also, I don’t know them very well.”

Matt nodded.

He and Foggy had been interns at a top law firm in New York, and had seen plenty of rich people.

But then the super magnate Roxxon Corporation had filed a lawsuit against a sick employee from their company, and Foggy and Matt had been responsible for the case, and were told to counter-sue the terminally ill employee.

Matt and Foggy finally chose to leave.

In fact, if they won the case, they would have been able to stay at Landman and Zack and become official lawyers.

That was the dream of countless law students, with an annual salary of millions just waiting for them, but the duo gave that up in the end.

Thus, they were moved by the huge donation, but they weren’t crazy with joy.

Most of the time, any meat pie that fell from the sky was either poisoned or on a fish hook.

But with their experience and legal knowledge, they didn’t find anything wrong with the donation contract.

Firstly, they didn’t have the right to use the 2.3 million donation.

Even if there was a problem with the cash flow in the future, they could only look for the patron and not unrelated third parties.

Secondly, the donation contract was very simple. There were no hidden traps; instead, there were many loopholes.

For these two Columbia University law graduates, they were sure that there weren’t any subsequent risks.

But who would donate so much money to their law firm and the people in Clinton?

For a moment, the three of them fell silent.

In the end, it was Karen who broke the silence. “Should we let Elena know that she can use the water and electricity for now, but there’s no money for anything else? It’ll take a few days for this money to be approved, right?”

Only then did Foggy and Matt snap out of their thoughts.

Rather than worrying about the law firm being given 600,000 dollars, they might as well help the victims of the explosions apply to the foundation as soon as possible.

After all, the donation to the law firm could be put aside for the time being, but the explosions had wrecked the walls and windows of many poor families.

Thinking that, Foggy took out a huge stack of files from his bag. “I have their files. I’ll leave the calls to you later. Tell them to come and fill out the application form.”

Karen said, “No problem.”

Matt said, “Let me take a look at their files first. I’ll find the families in the worst condition. We can put their applications on the top.”

The three of them got to work.

…

In the afternoon, Luke and Selina returned home from work. As they drove past the law firm, they saw people coming and going.

The good thing was that many people here didn’t have cars, so there was no traffic jam.

Luke had a rough idea of what was going on, but Selina was curious. “What’s going on? Did Foggy and Matt hit it big? So many clients are going in.”

Luke nodded quickly. “They definitely hit it big. Hm, let’s go up and take a look. It might be something else.”

Selina, on the other hand, shook her head. “I don’t think so. These people look anxious, but most of them seem happy. They’re not hoodlums. There’s no way they’ll rob a law firm, right?”

Luke stopped the car on the side of the road. “The most valuable thing in that law firm is probably Matt and Karen’s clothes.”

Selina pushed the door open and burst out laughing. “That’s true. Foggy’s clothes… Haha.”

They went up to the third floor, and there were people going up and down the stairs. It felt like a community party.

The people who would have made a fuss in the past were much calmer now. At most, they would look at each other silently and try to stab each other to death with their eyes, but nobody got into a fight.

When they reached the third floor, Luke and Selina were about to head to the office, when several people stopped them.

“Hey, don’t cut the queue.”

“Those who cut the queue will be pushed to the back.”

“You’re so young, why can’t you line up?”

Luke wasn’t angry. He said with a smile, “We’re not here to do business.”

As everybody looked at him disdainfully, a black man who was quick to speak said in a singsong voice, “Hm, someone said that before. Bro~ that won’t work. Be good~ line up at the back.”

Luke and Selina: …You really should be a singer.

Luke stopped talking to them and simply called Foggy.

A moment later, Karen, who was wearing a thin blue floral blouse, popped her head out of the office.

It was November in New York, but she was sweating and her cheeks were red as if she had just done strenuous exercise.

She waved at Luke and Selina, gesturing for them to come over as she explained to the people in line, “No, they’re not here to fill out the application form. They’re fine.”

Hearing that, the people in the queue reluctantly made way.

The people who had caused trouble had already been chased to the back of the line. Nobody wanted to repeat the same mistake.

In fact, lining up was just a waste of energy; the real order in which the applications were submitted was still based on their family situation.

Matt and Foggy certainly wouldn’t tell them that.

It was best to be prudent on this point. Otherwise, if all these people squeezed themselves into the law firm, the lawyers wouldn’t be able to do anything.

It took Luke and Selina almost a minute to reach Foggy and Matt’s office.

They were busy, and simply greeted Luke and Selina. Foggy said, “Sorry, we’re really busy today. What can we do for you?”

Luke said with a smile, “It’s fine. We just saw a lot of people gathered downstairs. I was afraid that something might have happened here, so I came to take a look.”

Foggy said, “Thank you very much. Nothing’s happened for now. We’re just dealing with some new business.”

Luke looked at the long line outside the office and nodded. “It doesn’t look like you’re making money, but giving it away instead.”

Both Foggy and Matt paused and smiled bitterly.

They wanted to say that Luke was right. These people were here to get money, not to give them money.

They also wanted to say that Luke was wrong. They had indeed just gotten a huge windfall, although they hadn’t cashed in the 50,000 dollars for the first month yet.
