Ren started negotiations with the pair to explore a joint venture based on Lee’s plan to set up a business to teach Mandarin, said Kang. On July 26, 2017, Chua, Lee and Ren signed an agreement, under which Ren gave a S$1 million cheque to Lee. On Dec 14, 2020, Ren applied for Homing to be wound up. The application was granted by the High Court on Jan 22, 2021.On Sept 9, 2022, the company filed a lawsuit against Goldciti and Ms Lee, seeking the return of the S$40,000.In his opening statement, Salem Ibrahim, who acts for the defendants, said that when Ren was persuading the pair to start a business with him, Chua did not want to be involved in the day-to-day management.
He said Lee suffered the stress and humiliation of having had the contents of a lawyer’s letter being pasted on the wall next to the door of her home.
