A Fairy Tale

In this modern fairy tale, we have a prince who married a princess and all would be well as they would be expected to live together happily ever after. But somehow or other the prince besides having lots of girl friends and concubines recently was attracted to a very beautiful lady and according to their customs, he could just ask the wife to get out of the house. But this wife was not a simple kampong girl and she was very angry that her husband was not faithful to her and moreover wanted to kick her out. She went to a lawyer who told her she could sue for divorce and get half share of the prince's properties which according to her came to billions of ringgits.  Now that the prince was not willing to negotiate and ignored all requests for settlement. Finally the case was put to the open court and with that the whole lots of details of wealth became an open secret and the wealth of the prince's family became a topic of nine years' wonder and hot topic of the towns and kampongs. Whatever was revealed in the open court would tantamount to clear and iron evidence when accepted by the court. When it came to the richest man of  Asean, who else could dispute the status of the prince and his father.  Well the fairy tale is still just the beginning  and  people would be very interested as to the outcome of this legal battle as it involved billions and billions of ringgits in hard cash and much more in properties around the globe. So somebody must be real of good substance to be Abie to amass wealth second to none in the whole of Southeast Asia. God bless the King!
