Chapter 4 — 600,000 Yuan And A Broken Marriage
In the police station, at first Liu Jinhua was still speechless, screaming and rolling around, insisting that this was a "domestic matter" and that the police had no right to intervene. Until lawyer Ly took out the surveillance video, the check issuance confirmation and a notarized copy of my pre-marital assets, clearly stating that the amount of money involved was particularly large, the evidence was complete, and if prosecuted, they would face a sentence of three to ten years in prison. At that time, she really collapsed. His whole body was shaking, his face was as yellow as dirt, he grabbed the policeman's hand and stammered:
"I was wrong! I was wrong! I'll return the money! I'll pay right away! I'm just temporarily confused! I can't go to jail! If I go to jail, my life will be over!"
Tran Due and Vuong Thien were also paralyzed with fear. Especially Tran Due, hastily took out the check, as if holding hot coals, just wanting to throw it away immediately. After the police recorded the report, they were temporarily detained to await processing. At that moment, Luu Kim Hoa suddenly clutched his chest, gasped, eyes widened and fell to the ground:
“Oh… my heart hurts so much… Hao Hao… I'm not done…”
Tran Hao immediately panicked and rushed to hug her:
"Mom! What's wrong with you?! Comrade police, call an ambulance! My mother has a heart attack!"
The scene was immediately chaotic. I stood and looked, my eyes cold. The way she secretly glanced at me and the police... denounced that clumsy performance. Misery and humiliation. It's the same old trick again. In the past, every time she made a fuss and Tran Hao refused to give in, she would act this out. It works every time. Tran Hao turned to me, his eyes red, his voice full of reproach:
"Kieu Can! Have you seen?! If anything happens to my mother, I will not forgive you!"
Lawyer Ly said softly in my ear:
"Miss Kieu, in this situation, if she really gets sick, even if she is prosecuted later, it is very likely that she will be released on bail or handled lightly."
I nodded. Only a feeling of nausea remained. The ambulance arrived. She groaned as she was carried on a stretcher. Tran Hao and Tran Due quickly followed and got into the car. Vuong Thien hesitated for a moment, then stomped his feet and followed. Outside the station, the night wind was cold. Tieu Hieu gave me his coat:
“Can Can, what now?”
“How?” I pulled out my phone, my eyes cold as ice.
“She likes to act... I'll let everyone see it.”
I opened the Tran family's chat group—the group I had just been added to because of my marriage. Just now it was filled with blessings, but now it's terrifyingly silent. Apparently, the drama at the wedding party spread everywhere. I don't say a single extra word. Directly send surveillance video. Right after that, there was a recording. The conversation between me and Tran Hao in front of the room door.
“...Mom is also reluctant, let's say we can lend it to our younger brother?”
“...after all, mom is an elder, you should pay attention when talking…”
"...do you really want to go to this extent? Sending my mother to jail for 600,000 yuan?"
Tran Hao's voice was clear. After sending, I typed a line:
“@everyone
Today, my dowry check for 600,000 yuan was stolen by Ms. Liu Jinhua and given to Chen Due. Full evidence, reported to the police. Tran Hao's attitude is as shown in the recording. Whether it's right or wrong, everyone can judge for themselves. I can't reach this family. Divorce procedures will be handled by lawyers.” The world… suddenly became quiet. A few seconds later, the phone vibrated like crazy. Private messages, endless calls—surprised, inquiring, pretending to advise prize. I blocked all communications from the Tran family. Only keep Tran Hao. Because of divorce... still need to talk. Tieu Hieu stood next to the whole process, widened her eyes, and finally gave a thumbs up:
"That's great, Can Can! Let's see how they change white to black this time!"
I smiled softly. But there was no joy left in my heart. Just a cold void. All the illusions about marriage… Have been completely crushed today.
"Let's go." I said.
"Hospital."
I took a deep breath.
"Let's go see... how my 'heart disease' mother-in-law is doing."
Convenient... We should also let the man in the hospital know clearly - What his wife, his son... ended up doing.
