Pearl and I went to see her dentist so her stitches be removed. We arrived there on time but, daughter and the dentist took some time debating whether her stitches be removed or not. After educating her about the possible consequences, she decided to let him remove the stiches.

After the dentist, we went to L & S Body Salon just opposite the building, when my brother, Nasser, called up. Straight to the point, he said the EX wants to know whether my counsel had asked for money, based on report by the respondent's counsel.

Surprised, I told him I will return the call after I talk with my lawyer. Even my lawyer was shocked when I asked her whether it's true or not. Then as the conversation went further, she realized it must had been well-planned. She was setup to meet each other at 10 a.m. at Starbucks but the respondent's lawyer arrived at past 11 a.m. Could it be possible that the meeting was planned by the other lawyer so he can meet my lawyer and told the EX later that we are asking for money?

Convinced with my lawyer's explanation, I called again Nasser. I told him to tell the EX not to give money to his lawyer because my counsel never ask a single cent. Whatever is the motive of the other lawyer, I find him dishonest about his transactions with the EX. And I had thought, what a combination, a lying EX and a lying lawyer!

I was just furious though because the Saturday conference cost me half of my lawyer's appearance fee. Some lawyers are charging per hour and others, per appearance.

Well-planned or not, only time will tell... every action has its karmic result!
