Chapter 1 — After being divorced for half a year, the Respite Center calls me the baby's mother
I went to the shelter to discuss postpartum recovery cooperation for the company's employees. As a result, the receptionist did not give me a contract, but instead pushed a bill for 280,000 yuan in front of me.
"Miss Lam, this is the VIP stay package that your mother-in-law extended. She said you will come today to pay the rest."
I looked at the words "Pregnant woman: Lam Tri Ha" printed clearly on the invoice and quietly turned on the recording. Divorced half a year ago. I have never been pregnant. Never even gave birth. So... where is the mother-in-law? Whose baby is that? I directly called the police:
"Hello, I want to report a case. Someone is impersonating me to give birth at a confinement center."
I went to the Duyet An residence center to discuss cooperation. The receptionist did not give the contract first, but instead pushed an invoice. Total: 280,000 yuan. Category: Premium VIP mother and baby room, extended for three more months. Mother's name: Lam Tri Ha. I raised my phone to take a photo of the receipt.
“What is this?”
The receptionist smiled very naturally, as if he had known me for a long time.
"Miss Lam, this is the package that your mother-in-law extended to you. She said you will come today to pay the rest."
I stared at the words "mother-in-law". Then burst out laughing.
“I got divorced half a year ago.”
“Not pregnant.”
“Not giving birth.”
"Tell me... which mother-in-law booked a room for me?"
The smile on the receptionist's face immediately stiffened. Just a few seconds later, she changed her tone:
“Miss Lam, you can't just give birth and then turn around and deny responsibility like that, right?”
Her voice is very loud. So big that the whole hall turned their heads to look at it. Someone is holding a small child. Some people even held milk bottles in their hands. I put the phone down on the table. The recording interface is still lit.
“Please say it again.”
The receptionist bowed his head and looked towards the office. The office door opened. A woman wearing a black suit stepped out, the name tag on her chest clearly stating: Trieu Man - Business Manager. I scanned the wall of employees behind her. Luc Thanh Thanh's photo has disappeared. That void was strangely dazzling. Trieu Man walked in front of me, looked at the bill first and then looked at the phone.
“Miss Lam, it's just a small misunderstanding, there's no need to record like that.”
I held the bill tightly.
“Then check now.”
Trieu Man raised his hand to get the bill. I immediately withdrew it.
"Don't touch it. I took pictures of everything."
Her hand stopped in mid-air.
"Today you came to discuss cooperation, right? In the future, Duyet An center will have a long-term cooperation with your company. Growing up... is not good for anyone."
I raised my head to look at her.
“You used my name to create maternity records, and also forced me to pay a fee of 280,000 yuan.”
“This is already big enough.”
The corner of Trieu Man's lips twitched slightly.
“Maybe it's just the same last name.”
“Identification tail number.”
She fell silent. I turned to the receptionist.
“If the system really has my maternity record, then read the last four numbers of my ID.”
The receptionist's fingers immediately stopped on the keyboard. Trieu Man immediately interrupted:
“Customer information cannot be arbitrarily disclosed.”
I laughed.
“I have to pay the bill.”
“The baby is recognized as my child.”
“Is identity becoming a right to privacy?”
The whole hall became even more silent. I called the police directly.
“Hello, I am at the center of Duyet An.”
“Someone impersonated me to create maternity records.”
“Currently still using invoices 280,000 yuan required me to pay.”
The operator told me to keep in touch.
“Don't go into a private room alone, don't sign any papers. Please preserve the scene and evidence, the police are on their way.”
As soon as I hung up the phone, Trieu Man's face changed completely. I keep saying:
“I will also notify the market manager.”
“I suspect this place has the practice of creating fake profiles and charging impersonation fees.”
The receptionist immediately panicked.
“Miss Lam, don't do that…”
I looked straight at her.
“Just now, you stood in front of so many people, saying that after giving birth, I took money.”
“Back then you weren't as polite as you are now.”
Trieu Man took a step forward, trying to lower his voice:
"Lam Tri Ha, don't let family matters affect the company's cooperation."
I turned the phone screen towards her.
“Family matter?”
“I've been divorced for half a year, but your system still has custody records under my name.”
“You call this a family matter?”
Trieu Man stared at my phone, not saying another word. I called Ms. Vuong — the company's administrative director.
“Cooperation with Duyet An is temporarily suspended.”
"What's up?"
"They used my identity to create maternity records."
I sent a photo of the invoice. Half a minute later, Ms. Vuong replied: 【Don't sign anything. Don't go into the office alone. I'll call a lawyer right away.】 When Trieu Man saw that text message, her face immediately sank. She turned around and said to the receptionist:
“Turn off the system.”
I raised my hand to block it.
“Don't turn it off.”
“If you turn off the system now, I will clearly record it in the record.”
The receptionist's hand stiffened. I stared at the computer screen. The bottom right corner suddenly pops up a care notification. 【Room 8808, the mother's surname is Song, the baby's breastfeeding records have not been updated.】 I saw it. Trieu Man also saw it. She immediately blacked out the screen. I raised my head.
“Room 8808.”
Having finished speaking, I turned around and went straight to the elevator. Trieu Man immediately chased after him. Right before the elevator door closed, she suddenly spoke:
“Lin Tri Ha, there are things… the less you know, the better.”
I pressed the 8th floor button.
“Then let's start with room 8808.”
The elevator door opens. At the same time, the door at the end of the hallway also opened. An old woman rushed out holding a child. As soon as she saw me, she immediately screamed:
“Lin Tri Ha! Do you still know the way to visit my grandson?”
