Los Angeles Detective Chapter 45

  Chapter 45 Estate Cases

Marriott.

  The two rushed to the hotel. Daisy wanted to open a two-bedroom suite, but Luke felt it was unnecessary.

   In his words, the two bedrooms are far away, and it is inconvenient to protect Daisy in case of danger.

  Daisy thought it made sense, and opened a suite with one bedroom and one living room. The living room is closer to the bedroom, and Luke would be able to detect someone breaking into it immediately.

  Luke "…"

  Is the double room bad?

   Isn't the big bed room fragrant?

  Luke is not fooling around, Daisy is a lawyer, not a stupid girl with **** and no brains.

  Luke is sitting on the sofa, and he can only sleep here tonight. The quality of the sofa is good, so there is no need to worry about insomnia.

  Daisy took off her coat, the curves of her chest became more and more full, "Luke, thank you for being by my side, without you... I don't know what would have happened.

  Maybe already being monitored and not know it, it scares me to think about it...I don't know what kind of person would do such a thing, it's horrible. "

   "Relax, I will protect you. My colleagues are already investigating, and I believe there will be leads soon." Luke gave her a hug, which was soft and comfortable.

   "Can you have a drink with me?" Daisy broke free from Luke's clutches, took out a bottle of red wine and two goblets from the wine cabinet, and poured a glass for Luke and herself.

   "I respect you." Daisy raised her glass as a gesture.

   "Cheers." Luke clinked glasses with the other party, and just after taking a sip, Daisy gulped it down.

   "Oh... drink slowly, tonight is still long, I have to watch the night, so I can't drink too much."

  Daisy poured another glass of wine, "I just want to forget what happened tonight as soon as possible. Someone sneaked into the house and installed a surveillance camera. I feel that this is more terrifying than robbing on the street."

  Luke took advantage of the situation and asked, "Do you have any suspects?"

  Daisy said, "After talking to you last time, I have thought about many possibilities. My life is basically two points and one line, the law firm, going home, and occasionally going to the bar for a drink.

  I don't have any personal grievances, just like your previous speculation is probably related to my work. "

   "Can you tell me about a case you're working on?"

   "Well, not in principle. But... I'm only telling you one person, can you analyze it for me?"

   Luke smiled, "Of course."

   "I have three cases in my hand, two divorce cases and one will case, which one do you want to hear first?"

  Luke asked back, "Which case do you prefer to be related to today's events?"

   "The Will Case."

   "OK, let's talk about this case first."

  Daisy said, "A year ago, I accepted a will, and the trustor distributed the estate according to his own wishes. There are two forms of wills, one is a written will, and I keep it.

   There is also an electronic will. The client recorded a video in which the estate is distributed in person, which can be regarded as a farewell to relatives and friends.

  Some time ago, the client was admitted to the hospital for rescue and is still in a coma.

  His family found the video will in the safe and played the content of the will.

   I suspect someone might be trying to steal a written will from me. "

   Luke was puzzled, "Since they have watched the video and know the content of the will, why would they steal the written will from your hand."

   "California does not recognize oral wills and video wills. The will must be established in written form. It must also clearly indicate how the estate will be distributed, dated, and signed by the person who made the will.

   If the will is written in the testator's own hand, it is called a 'handwritten will' and does not even require a witness.

  The one in my hand is the autographed will. "

  Luke pressed, "What if your will is stolen or destroyed?"

   "The video will is invalid. Once the client dies, the estate will be inherited according to California law."

   "How much is the estate worth?"

   "At least several million dollars."

   "Wow, it's really exciting. It seems that the will in your hand affects the interests of many people."

   "Yeah, it was only after you reminded me that it might be related to this will case."

Luke took advantage of the analysis, "If someone really wanted to steal this will, they sneaked into your office on March 2 and stole it, but they couldn't find it. On March 3, Tim attacked you with a Taser gun and was about to steal your belongings , but without success.

  Today someone broke into your home again, installed surveillance in the study to peek at the password of the safe.

   Logically it makes sense. "

   "I didn't expect an ordinary entrustment of a will to cause such a big trouble. Without you, I don't know what would happen to me?"

   "I will always be with you." Luke held Daisy Bainen's left hand with his right hand.

   Under the stimulation of alcohol, the two sat closer and closer. Luke looked at the beautiful woman beside him, and couldn't help but hug her into his arms.

   Daisy has a good figure, a light fragrance on her body, a pretty face, and **** red lips are very attractive.

   Luke stroked Daisy's cheek with his left hand, and kissed her red lips sideways.

  Daisy was taken aback for a moment, her body was a little stiff, but she gradually relaxed under Luke's passionate kiss...

   After a burst of passionate kisses, the atmosphere also became ambiguous.

   "Om..."

   A mobile phone vibrated, interrupting Luke's further actions.

  Daisy came back to her senses, leaned back, her cheeks flushed, "Sorry...I have to answer the phone."

   Daisy got up and went to answer the phone, Luke took a sip from the red wine glass, **** the phone, next time it must be turned off.

   After a while, Daisy answered the phone, "It's the client's call."

   “Testate.”

   "I hoped to receive a call from the trustor, but he is still in a coma and is the trustee in the divorce case."

  Luke walked up to Daisy and put his arms around her waist, "It's late now, don't think about work."

   Luke leaned over to kiss, Daisy pressed her fingers on Luke's lips, "You're right, it's getting late, I have to go to rest, there are still many things to deal with tomorrow."

   "Want me to accompany you?"

   "No, not today, the camera thing scares me, give me some time, please?"

  Luke was a little disappointed, "Where does the divorce client live?"

"Why do you ask?"

   "I want to punch him."

  Daisy chuckled and kissed Luke on the cheek, "Goodnight."

  Luke laughed, "If you're scared by yourself, you can call me anytime."

   "I wish you a sweet dream." Daisy turned and entered the bedroom.

  Luke picked up the wine glass on the coffee table and drank it in one gulp. Although not one step is in place, the relationship between the two is considered to be progressing.

  Luke lay back casually. The leather sofa was very elastic and felt pretty good.

   Luke is not dissatisfied with sleeping on the sofa. If he hadn't come to the hotel, he would probably spend the whole night investigating the case. Compared with his colleagues, he is already very lucky.

   "Ah cut..." Luke sneezed, who was thinking of me?

  Mom? Or the little fat guy?

  Luke just remembered that he hadn't reported it to his mother yet.

  Luke took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to his mother, "Mom, I won't be going home tonight."

   "Have you found a new place?"

   "No, I love you, I will not move."

   "Then hurry back."

   "I have a task today."

   "You don't look like you are about to perform a mission this afternoon, do you think I'm easy to cheat?"

   "I swear to God, there's an urgent mission on the team."

   "Shutup! You don't believe in God at all, are you with a woman?"

   "No."

   "The lawyer girlfriend?"

   "I said no."

   "Wewill, wewill, rockyou..." A burst of music sounded, and the voice video of my mother calling.

   Luke off.

  My mother sent another message, "I knew it."

  Luke threw the phone aside, too lazy to bother.
