Chapter 6 — 6 Days to Clean Up Your Estate Then Divorce
Unable to contact me, he will definitely go to his parents, and they will use the most familiar method. Ethics and public opinion. Sure enough, at ten o'clock in the morning, I received a call from a distant relative. Someone that took me a few seconds to remember.
"Tieu Tinh, it's me. I heard that you and Van Bac had an argument."
The voice was full of fake concern, it was tiring to hear.
"Husband and wife argue at the head of the bed and make peace at the end of the bed. There's nothing we can't talk about."
"My mother-in-law called me crying and almost fainting, saying she wouldn't accept the new child and even kicked the whole family out."
"You're not doing this right. You're still a child. Your grandparents are old and just want to have some hope."
"As children and grandchildren, you have to be understanding. Why do you go to the extent of divorce? You're still young and you're bringing small children with you. How will you live in the future?"
I listened to everything, did not interrupt, nor objected. Wait for her to finish saying a long line of "for my good". I asked softly again.
“How much did the Chu family pay you to make this phone call?”
The other end of the line was silent.
“What…what are you talking about.”
“There's no need, I'll handle my matters myself, don't make calls like this again in the future.”
"If not, I don't mind recording it and sending it to the group of relatives, so everyone can see who is the one who changed white for black."
After I finished speaking, I hung up. I know, this is just the beginning. There will be many other "kind relatives" appearing, from all sides, using words to corner me. But it's okay. I have prepared in advance. I called Ly Tuyet.
“Help me send a legal document to Chu Van Bac and his parents, clearly informing them if they continue to harass or defame me through anyone.”
“I will immediately file a lawsuit and pursue responsibility for violating my honor.”
To deal with those people, you must use the method they fear the most. This time, I won't hold back anymore. Not even once. After dealing with the relatives who liked to meddle in other people's affairs, I drove straight to Ly Tuyet's law office. The real battle had now begun. Her office is bright, neat, exactly like her personality, decisive, alert, without a trace of emotion. She handed me a cup of hot coffee, her eyes looking straight as if she was re-evaluating the whole situation.
“Is it done?”
“Yes, it's all blocked, I'll give you a warning too.”
Ly Tuyet shook her head, her voice serious.
"Hua Tinh, don't underestimate a man when he's cornered, especially the type who relies on you like him, and now suddenly loses everything."
“Right now he is just begging and cursing, but when he realizes that those things are useless, what he will do is anyone's guess.”
My heart skipped a beat.
“What do you mean?”
“I mean you can't defend anymore, you have to proactively attack.”
Ly Tuyet turned to the whiteboard and wrote down each word, each stroke as sharp as a knife. Divorce, asset division, liquidation, child custody.
"First, you must file for divorce immediately, take the initiative, don't let him come back and accuse you of transferring assets on purpose."
"The application must clearly state the reason that his family's arbitrary adoption of the child has caused the marriage to completely break down, and the responsibility must be placed on them."
“Second, about property.”
She circled the words division and liquidation.
“The current house is still in the names of two people, though The loan is being paid by the fund but the ownership has not changed, that is the risk point.”
"It's best to sell right away. During the lawsuit, you can apply for a freeze and then put it up for auction. That way he only gets the money and no longer has the chance to keep the house."
"Even though the company has withdrawn all the money, the legal entity is still you. You must quickly go through bankruptcy procedures, close all debts, and not leave any weaknesses for him to attack."
“Third, it is also the most important.”
Ly Tuyet's eyes stopped on me, so cold that it made me clench my fists.
“Custody of Niem Niem.”
“He will definitely compete.”
“Not because I love you, but because it's the only card to force you.”
My hand squeezed the coffee cup tightly, the heat spread into my palm but still could not warm the cold feeling inside.
“What will he do?”
"He will say that because of the divorce, you do everything, transfer all your assets, are mentally unstable, are not qualified to raise children, and may even go to school to cause trouble."
"So we have to prepare in two ways, one is to collect all the evidence that he and his family harassed you, and two is to make a plan to get out of their reach."
“New place to live, new environment, even a new city, so they can't find it, and can't reach it.”
