Chapter 14 — 7 Fingerprints Found In My New Home

The mother-in-law's face immediately changed. She rushed forward to steal it. But Khuong Le is faster.

“Stop raising your claws.”

USB is plugged into the device. The sound echoed throughout the entire hall. Chu Bang's voice came out first.

“Can this expired butter be used?”

Immediately followed by the mother-in-law's voice.

“Why not?”

“The food industry is most afraid of unsanitary conditions.”

“As long as Van Hoa hates it.”

“His store is finished.”

“By that time, there was no more money to hire a lawyer.”

“Won't the house belong to Canh Xuyen?”

Chu Bang's voice laughed loudly.

“So can I buy the store for you?”

The mother-in-law replied without hesitation.

“With you, my mother will take care of it.”

“He listens to his mother the most.”

Chu Canh Xuyen's face began to turn white. But the recording is not over yet. Right after that. A familiar voice rang out.

“Don't make such a big deal out of it.”

“Just force her to sign the agreement.”

The mother-in-law immediately responded:

“What are you soft-hearted about?”

“It's not signed.”

“Then it will make him lose his reputation.”

The recording ends. The whole hall was silent. You can even hear the sound of a pin falling to the ground. Director Lam slowly took off his glasses. Looking towards Chu Canh Xuyen.

“Is there anything else you want to say?”

Chu Canh Xuyen's lips moved slightly.

“This recording is incomplete.”

I looked at him.

“So which sentence didn't you say?”

He looked at me. For the first time, panic appeared in his eyes.

“I don't want to ruin you.”

“I just want you to turn around.”

Khuong Le immediately laughed and scolded.

“Put a knife on someone's neck and tell them you want them to turn around?”

“You really know the new definition of love.”

The mother-in-law suddenly turned around. Slap Chu Bang straight in the face.

“It's all your fault that you came up with this stupid thing!”

Chu Bang hugged his face.

“Obviously mom said it first!”

The mother and daughter immediately quarreled in the middle of the hall. Director Lam coldly said to the security guard:

“Let them out.”

“Van Hoa will retain the right to pursue responsibility.”

Two guards immediately stepped forward. Clamp both sides of the mother-in-law. She struggled and screamed.

“You can't treat me like that!”

“I am your mother-in-law!”

I looked at her. Calmly replied:

“Very soon it will no longer be.”

The mother-in-law was dragged away. Chu Bang was also taken out. But Chu Canh Xuyen still stood still. He stood in front of the display table. Quietly looking at the plate of sea salt croissants I just made. That used to be his favorite dish. The day before. Try a new recipe every time. The first one always belongs to him. A long time later. He said hoarsely:

“I made this dish every time before.”

“I saved the first one for you.”

The whole hall was quiet. I looked at the plate of golden cake under the light. The fragrant butter smell is still there. But there are things... Once cooled. Then it will never be hot again. I pushed the tray of cakes towards the judges.

“The first one now…”

“I want to give it to people who appreciate it.”

The knife gently cuts down. The layer cake crust immediately opened. A crisp sound rang out softly. The rich aroma of butter quickly spread across the table. General Manager Lam tasted a piece. Less than ten seconds. He directly signed the confirmation. Then give me the pen.

"Congratulations."

I received the pen. Sign your name on the contract. At the entrance. Chu Canh Xuyen stood motionless. His face was pale as if someone had just drained his blood. I just signed. Heard his voice from behind. So light that it almost melts into the air.

“I could really leave you.”

I didn't turn back. There are people who always think that they are their home. It wasn't until the rain passed that I discovered it. They are nothing more than a leaky tile. After the cooperation with Van Hoa was confirmed. Chu Canh Xuyen started texting me continuously. First message:

"My mother is old and has an extreme personality. Don't take it personally with her."

Second message:

"I will compensate for Chu Bang's matter."

Third message:

"Lam Van, let's meet and talk. Don't let the lawyer stand in the middle."

I don't reply to any messages. Not even one piece of news. Tham Chieu prepared all documents to sue for divorce. Make an appointment with me to the court to sign the power of attorney. Just got off the bus. I saw Chu Canh Xuyen standing on the steps. He doesn't wear a tie. Dark circles under the eyes are clearly visible.

“Do we have to go to this step?”

I looked at him.

“It was you who pushed me here.”

He clutched the file bag in his hand.

“I admit I didn't handle it well.”

"The house can be divided according to the ratio of your capital contribution."

"I'll accept the six hundred thousand yuan I lent to Chu Bang."

“But about your mother's fingerprints…”

“You don't need to cling to it forever.”

I looked at him.

“For now…”

“Do you still think the problem is fingerprints?”

Chu Canh Xuyen paused.

“So what is it?”

“It was you who automatically allowed her to surpass me.”

“Get over our marriage.”

“Crossing our boundaries.”

“And beyond the minimum respect shown to me.”

He closed his eyes. Then quickly open it.

“You've been like that since you were little.”

“In the house, everyone listens to mom.”

“Every time she cries.”

“I have no other choice.”

I laughed.

“So you leave me no other choice?”

Chu Canh Xuyen's voice gradually lowered.

“I thought you would understand me.”

I looked at the man in front of me.

“I understood before.”

“I understand enough to let someone break into my house.”

“Understood enough to let someone else search my bedroom.”

“So understanding that the store was looted.”

“Understood to the extent that people's careers were slandered.”

Chu Canh Xuyen immediately said:

“There won't be a next time.”

“I already scolded Chu Bang.”

“Also talked to your mother.”
