Meanwhile as they left the store the staff members all tidied up the store for the next day before leaving. Two of the three female staff members, heading in opposite directions that they were not being observe pulled out their phones to make a call to their long-term criminal lawyers. Both when they were younger had been saved by each lawyer from a significant jail sentence for group s*x charges, and given that they had both opted to work in a s*x shop with exemptions knew what would happen there and had their lawyer from their youth on call. At almost the same time, then dialled two different numbers and said "I have something you need to know, and it impacts the case that you are involved in."

Both men said, "What is it?"

The women both said "Lu Jingho and his wife were at my workplace with a woman Madam Lu referred to his Lu Jingho's mistress and who they called Miss w.a.n.g. However, I saw her earlier today on television leaving the courthouse beside him. She is a member of his legal team."

Both conversations drifted for a couple of minutes before they ended.

Alister Nang who received one of the calls was shocked, but given the total disrespect that Lu Jingho seemed to have for everything unless he was in total control, he always had a suspicion that he would manipulate the sole female lawyer in his team. His fears had been seemed to be true, and given she seemed at this point to be in control of his case, this could be highly problematic. He would just have to work out the strategy to deal with the situation over the next week, as it was ultimately not an insurmountable problem. He needed evidence that it was not above board and that might be difficult to easily and legally secure quickly, but it would eventually be able to be gathered. He was just grateful that he was given this information by a client, who he respected as she was honest not only about her work, which she admitted she was using to provide for her family, but her past.

However, the man who receive the other call, was shocked. Not only was his staff member cooperating, given the written instructions from Lu Jingho, they were now caught. The had an already problematic client to deal with, and this made the situation worse. Yes, the senior partners all knew female and male staff members to get good references from clients occasionally traded those references for some mild s*xual activity and while it was accepted, they never encouraged it.

From everything that he had been told, it was obvious that Lu Jingho had her completely controlled. He just hoped that the control did not spell disaster for the case, but he knew that he had to let the situation go until it ended. But once it did lawyer Jane Gang was going to be dismissed by the firm as she had gone well outside any behaviour that anyone would tolerate.

Naturally her dismissal would not be for the real reason, but he would make it clear that while she was a competent lawyer, his case had shown that despite the outcome the firm was not the right place for her as her skills was such that she could be the lead lawyer in significant criminal cases, and that was not an opportunity that they could always give her.

Looking at the time, he figured that he could send a long text message to Jane's mobile which read 'apologise for disturbing you Jane, but I woke during the night, thinking about the handwritten instructions from Mr Lu. This is your first case as lead lawyer, and we have a somewhat difficult client. I would suggest that you need to spend your time this next week before we must return to court working with him to develop the strategy for the matters going forward. Do that however Mr Lu feels the most comfortable in doing it and letting us know what you need us to do at the office. We need to be sharp with the case to achieve the outcomes our client wants or as best as we can achieve them. I will. to take some pressure off you continue with the negotiations to get rid of charges.'
