Chapter 17 — After Divorce, She Made The Whole River City Bow Its Heads
Co Tram Chu stared at the note, his chest felt like someone was strangling him, even breathing felt painful. It turned out that all the meticulous care he once took for granted was hidden behind her silent and foolish love. Yet you, have never once truly appreciated it. *The most fatal truth, always told to you by others* The next morning, Co Tram Chu went to the hospital. It's not that he's sick. It was my grandfather who was in the hospital for regular check-ups. Old man Co never liked To Thanh Nhan, but he respected Lam Van quite a lot. In the past three years, he was the only person in the Co family who never despised her. As soon as he saw Co Tram Chu enter the hospital room, the old man snorted coldly: "You still show your face here?" Co Tram Chu stood silently beside the bed, not objecting. Seeing that he didn't say anything, the old man became even angrier: "I told you a long time ago, Lam Van is much more conscientious than you, but you still didn't listen. Now it's better, they're gone, do you know the pain?" Co Tram Chu lowered his eyes and his voice was hoarse: "Grandpa, did you already know that she wasn't simple?"
“Excessive talk.” The old man glared at him, "Do you really think I'm an old fool? The first time she played chess with me, I saw it. Vision, upbringing, way of speaking, temperament, are there any things that are similar to children raised by normal families?"
“So why didn't you say it?”
“Are you going to believe me if I say it?” The old man angrily hit the bed, "At that time my heart was completely biased towards the Pacific Ocean, my mind was full of To Thanh Nhan, who said what I heard?"
Co Tram Chu's throat choked. Indeed. At that time, no matter who told her how good Lam Van was, he only thought that it was the duty of an exemplary wife. The more the old man spoke, the angrier he became: "Do you know the list of doctors who operated on me last year, and who helped contact me? It's Lam Van!"
"Do you know that your project abroad almost collapsed last year? Why did you suddenly get a letter of guarantee from that party at the last minute? It's the same girl!"
"And about my car accident three years ago, the blood supply was exhausted, who was the one who ran to the hospital in the middle of the night and called everywhere to beg for blood? It was still her!"
Every sentence and every word fell, Co Tram Chu's whole body stiffened. He knows almost nothing about these things. Or to be more precise, he only knew the results, but never asked about the process. He always thought that he was the one who supported the entire Co family and protected everyone. But now I discovered that, in places he couldn't see, the woman he had ignored for three years had silently made up for so many gaps on his behalf. The old man spoke at the end, his voice becoming lower.
"Tram Chu, the biggest mistake in my life is not not loving her."
"It's that you were clearly loved by her, but you trampled on that sincere love, yet you didn't even know it."
The hospital room was terrifyingly quiet. Co Tram Chu stood there, as if nailed to the spot, not moving for a long time. *The evidence that she once loved him turned out to be that much* After leaving the hospital, Co Tram Chu did not return to the company. He directly told Chu Nham to drive to the old warehouse of the main house. He was like a crazy person, pulling out everything Lam Van had left behind at the Co family. In the dressing room, each set of men's shirts is hung neatly according to classification, many of which are personally made. Lam Van chose, he once criticized her taste for being boring so he never asked carefully. Only now did I realize that the shirts she chose best suited his skin tone and body shape. In the study room, a row of financial and history books have very faint folds in the corners, and a few pages still have sticky notes that say: "You mentioned this point of view before, it's worth reading" or "This example is very similar to the Co Thi's strategy of expanding abroad at this time." In the kitchen, there is also a handwritten menu she left behind.
