[Comprehensive British and American dramas] No.1 is called non-plural

"What happened?" Daisy put the documents on the table, didn't sit down in a hurry, but leaned on the table and asked.

"I encountered a problem and couldn't think of a solution." Isaac didn't look outside at all, and sat down by himself, "I'm very upset."

"It's about the law?" Daisy folded her arms, her voice became stern, "It's about economics? You didn't sign another contract without me knowing?"

On this point, Isaac has a criminal record.When he was in college, he once made some investments, and the targets were basically alumni who also did not leave school. Isaac didn't take it seriously, because the relationship between the two parties automatically put the moral standards of the two parties on the same level, and the result was negative once.Daisy helped solve the last matter. Of course, she took the commission fee very seriously, but in the end she warned Isaac, because he was careless and didn't see that kind of small trap. Isaac's response was even more straightforward. He directly invited Daisy to be his agent. From then on, he didn't need to read those contracts.

But now, Daisy suspects that Isaac has made the same mistake again, and may have been tricked by someone he has a good relationship with.

Isaac showed an inexplicable expression, "How could I make the same mistake, this time it's not a financial problem, but a marriage problem."

This time, Daisy not only had a stern voice, but also a stern expression, "What's going on? Aren't you and Spencer always on good terms?"

"Of course we are fine." Issac sighed. "Actually, this matter has nothing to do with me. When I went to the academy to give a lecture today, I met a student..." Issac picked out the key points and said, "This Not the right thing to do, but it's protected by law at the same time, and I can't think of a way to stop or even fix it. It's okay to happen anywhere else, but in Virginia, I don't think it would So close to me."

Quantico was in Virginia, where he went to work every day.

"It's basically impossible to use legal means to force it to be resolved." Daisy said something pertinent, and then returned Isaac with a more depressed look.

"Otherwise what do you think I'm bothering?" Isaac said. "It's a marriage issue. A girl who still needs a guardian lives with someone who is old enough to be her grandfather with the guardian's consent. I won't say that." There are ethical and moral issues in it. True love is still possible, but now, this law seems to me to be basically used to exonerate pedophiles."

This is no longer the problem of Allison Raleign's sister alone. What Isaac thinks of is the more social problems that exist behind it.

Even if you know that there are conflicting laws in various states, it feels like enough.

"Did the local government and the court really not find these problems?" Isaac spread his hands at Daisy, "Why hasn't this one been repealed?"

"Don't be silly," Daisy said. "It's not easy to change the law."

"I know, just like the Loving couple, this is the result of the joint efforts of both parties to appeal." Issac snorted, "I know that some laws are funny, but I really didn't expect the court to decide It’s not fun at all when you actually follow that.”

The Loving couple happened more than half a century ago. They are also residents of Virginia and fell in love when they were young.But at that time, there was a law in the state that prohibited intermarriage between people of different races, so the young couple went to Washington to register as a couple.However, that certificate was not recognized in the local area at all. They were arrested, and the final court sentence was one year in prison. After negotiation, the crime was exonerated, but the price was that they could not return to Virginia for 25 years.At first, the young couple left, but not everyone can adapt to leaving their hometown. In the end, they decided to appeal, which was rejected, appealed again, and rejected again.With the help of civil rights organizations, they appealed to the state Supreme Court. After being rejected, they still did not give up, and then appealed to the Federal Supreme Court.In the end, they won, and the law was repealed.At this time, nine years after their marriage, they drifted away for five years, and it took four years for their marriage to be recognized.

The event is so famous that it even has an anniversary day dedicated to it.However, the reasons behind the success are much more complicated.Of course, changing the law itself is a complicated matter, but the matter of ZoeyRaleign is still different from this. According to AllisonRaleign, she is completely voluntary and devoted, and her parents also bless and support her.In the case that the parties did not cooperate, Isaac could not think of operation methods, but those methods were either bad enough or the process was uncontrollable.Furthermore, he didn't want to solve this matter for Zoey Raleign, he just didn't want to be whitewashed and peaceful because of this law when underage girls were violated in the future, living with someone who had hurt him.

this is too scary.

Social responsibility is such a delicate thing.

"Have you thought of a way?" Daisy asked calmly.

"The bad one, find the ex-wife of the pedophile man. If you do it carefully, you may not be able to convict him. But this problem is not just his problem. Even if he is thrown into prison, as long as the law is still valid, the future will still be the same. The same thing will happen." Issac said, "Another way is to use public opinion. It is easy to achieve, and any normal person will not think it is a normal thing for a little girl to marry an old man, they will Doubt, resentment, and will try our best to prevent this from happening... However, no one can really control public opinion, especially now that the Internet is so developed, I don't think the overall direction will change much, but there are always a small group of people, who Knowing what they can be inspired to do. And the girls who have been victimized, who have been hurt once, and if it happens again..."

"You just proposed a framework." Daisy didn't continue to say anything, but sat back in her chair, tapping her fingers on the table.

This meant she had to think again.

"A not-so-good habit." Isaac also knew that nothing was perfect, "You know where I am now, which has given me the habit of considering every possibility and estimating the worst possible outcome."

"You may be doing well in your field, but in this respect, you are still a little far behind." Daisy said, "But you are right, this matter involves minors, we must be cautious..."

"You have a way?" Isaac was pleasantly surprised.

"I have contacts." Daisy said earnestly, "This is definitely not something that one person can do, and I know people who are very concerned about the rights of women and children. You know, it is most appropriate for them to speak out on this matter. Those people are very motivated and experienced in fighting for their rights, and they will do their best."

Isaac admits this, "Who?"

"Evelyn Clemens," Daisy replied, "an old friend of mine."

Daisy is a very active person, she didn't delay for a minute, directly grabbed the phone and called Evelyn Clemens, and briefly explained the matter.And Evelyn Clemens was really interested in this matter, and even rushed over from home regardless of the time.

"She's still so irritable." Daisy glanced at her watch, "Are you hungry? There's a restaurant downstairs, we can have dinner first."

Taking advantage of Daisy's phone call just now, Isaac checked the information of Evelyn Clemens on the Internet, and found that this person is very active and has made some achievements, and it seems that he may be developing into the political field.Have to say, Daisy found a good candidate.

"I'm not too hungry..." Isaac turned a corner as soon as the words of refusal reached his lips, "but it's a good idea."

Don't compete with a mom who wants you to eat, or it won't end well.

When Isaac and Daisy went out, there were already a lot fewer people outside, but there were still many people working overtime at their desks. Matilda Keppel was also there, but she just nodded too quickly and continued to work. Isaac didn't pay attention to this, he was still thinking about Evelyn Clemens who would arrive later.

It wasn't until Isaac collected his thoughts while waiting for the meal that he didn't care about other things.for example--

"Why is Matilda Keppel here?" Isaac was still a little confused about this. When they were dealing with each other before, he clearly remembered that Matilda Keppel was in another firm.

"She came to apply for the job. She has experience as an intern here and has outstanding abilities, so she is here." Daisy said indifferently, "She is very ambitious and willing to work hard. I am very optimistic about her. If there is no accident, She will be a junior partner in the firm within the next few years."

Isaac cuts.

"What's wrong? You don't like her?" Daisy asked.

"It's because she doesn't like me." Isaac said, "When I was in school, I was inexplicably fighting with me, and it got worse after she was an intern with you. If I didn't know that she didn't like me, I thought I had started to mess with her Finally gave up."

"She is a very serious and hardworking girl." Daisy said something fair, "It's very similar to me back then."

"So, you were inexplicably hostile to a certain male classmate back then?" Isaac asked with his chin propped up.

"How could I have that time? At that time, there was a problem with Ricardo's ranch, and even the bank loan was almost unpaid, and Ann's tuition fees were almost out of reach. If I hadn't applied for the school loan and some scholarships, it would be true. It’s almost unbearable.” Daisy’s expression was a bit sad, why the sisters and even Ricardo couldn’t forgive Rose, not because of her betrayal again, but also because when she left at that time, she took away the family’s emergency gold. "When you have to work three jobs a day and you can't miss your studies, you will find that even sleeping is a luxury."

Isaac knew that Daisy had a bad time for a while, but he didn't expect it to be this bad, "Were you not with Kiven at the time? He didn't do anything?"

"This is my business, what does it have to do with him?" Daisy said as a matter of course, "Even if he is my boyfriend, he has no reason to bear this." After a pause, Daisy's voice rarely softened, " Also, I was very unfair to him at that time, and my mentality was really wrong at that time."

"Isn't it because of too much pressure that you want to break up?" Issac knew that Daisy was so strong, so it wasn't surprising what she did.

"I was blaming him at that time." Daisy looked at Issac, "Maybe you won't understand, but I was... you heard what Ricardo said, I was really not a lovable girl at that time, when you were busy you could only When you solve a meal within 1 minute, you will feel that the man next to you who always tells you to rest more and stop working so hard is too hateful. Yes, his intention is out of concern, but he doesn’t understand your pressure, You can't feel his thoughts, you just think he is ridiculously naive and ignorant. You need money, you need to make your studies outstanding, and he has money and leisure, he can do what he likes, you need to work hard He can always complete his studies with ease..."

"You were just under too much pressure at the time, and I know you are not that kind of person." Isaac held Daisy's hand, "Even if you don't believe in yourself, you have to believe in me. I'm so cute, how can I not have any genetics? factor?"

Daisy was amused, "Kiven said it's atavistic, and it's all thanks to your grandfather."

"Are you sure that his exact words are credit, not something..." Isaac grimaced, "I don't know how long they'll be awkward."

"Maybe they're all used to that way of getting along." Daisy smiled.

Isaac looked at Daisy, "Didn't I say thank you, without you and Kiven, I wouldn't have been so comfortable these years, able to make all kinds of choices and experiments as I wanted."

"This is what we should do. If I have worked so hard for so many years to let my children repeat my life, then what's the point?" Daisy has always been strict with Isaac, but most of the time, although she expresses It's not obvious, but she is really a person who spoils her son. "You should have had a better life, if it wasn't for that accident..."

"That's not your fault, I can only say that I was too kind in the past, and unexpectedly approached without vigilance to show someone the way." In the end, I was tied up.

"It's not your fault," Daisy said. "I'm glad you didn't get overwhelmed by this."

"I'm spring-type, and there's nothing I can do about it." Isaac sighed, "You know things like bottoming out."

Daisy can't help it either. In terms of personality, she doesn't dare to say that she has a good personality.

Isaac thought of something instead, "I'm sure Matilda has no other thoughts about me, maybe other than envy?"

"Her career is also very good now." Daisy had to say something fair. She didn't think the temporary setbacks were nothing, and she didn't think that Keppel, whom she admired, would be entangled in the troubles she had gone through. Is there no misunderstanding?"

Isaac put on a Doge face, "No."

But soon he overturned his idea.

On the way back to the office, he saw Matilda Keppel again.This time, Matilda Keppel's expression was not restrained, maybe because they were far away and she thought Isaac couldn't see her expression?But that's far from what Isaac cared about, so he saw her expression.

Unbearable jealousy.

against him.

Isaac paused, and put his hand on Daisy's shoulder.

Matilda Keppel's expression grew even angrier.

Isaac felt as if he had been splashed with blood.

seriously? Isaac began to seriously think about the reasons that those guys who were afraid of chaos in college gave him reasons why Matilda Keppel didn't like him. One of them seemed to be that he stole her girlfriend?God knows he listened to this as a joke!

Now he's a little unsure.
