At the same time, open the recording function.

"Very serious."

Maybe he thought I was scared. So the tone softened a bit.

"Now you go back."

"Transfer the Nam Thanh project back to the company."

"I will tell the legal department to withdraw the attorney's letter."

"The severance agreement can also be canceled."

"Project Director position..."

"I will leave it to you."

"What about To Man?"

The other end of the line was silent for a moment.

"She's young."

"Can be your deputy."

I laughed.

"Didn't you say this morning..."

"Do customers like young faces?"

Chu Khai Minh's breathing suddenly became heavy.

"Hua Thanh Hoa."

"Don't stick to one sentence forever."

"I'm giving you a way out."

I calmly replied:

"I don't need it."

His voice immediately turned cold.

"So that means you're determined to confront the company?"

I slowly asked again.

"General Manager Chu."

"Yesterday I officially quit my job."

"There is no non-compete clause."

"Do not leak any confidential documents."

"It was Nam Thanh who proactively contacted me."

"Please..."

"What terms did I violate?"

Chu Khai Minh smiled coldly.

"Cost calculation model."

"Supplier relationships."

"Customer needs."

"It was all formed during her time working at the company."

"You dare say those things are not related to the company?"

I replied immediately.

"Of course it's relevant."

"So..."

"I did not take away any documents in the company's shared folder."

"What I brought..."

"It's a personal notebook."

"It's my own experience."

"It's public information for the whole industry."

"If you think all of that belongs to the company..."

"So just sue."

The other end of the line was silent for a second. He didn't expect me to be so tough. The next second. He lowered his voice.

"Hua Thanh Hoa."

"Don't forget..."

"Your son is still young."

My hand stopped.

"What do you mean?"

"No meaning."

His fake tone made me feel nauseous.

"I just wanted to remind you..."

"It's not easy for a middle-aged woman to find a job."

"If you make things too big..."

"It won't be good for your child."

I looked at the hospital bill placed on the table. Then slowly sit up straight.

"Zhu Kaiming."

"That last sentence..."

"I recorded it."

The other end of the line immediately went silent. I continue.

"You just used my son to threaten an employee who quit."

"If this recording is posted online..."

"Perhaps it will be even more unique than your company's statement."

Chu Khai Minh immediately panicked.

"Hua Thanh Hoa!"

"Don't mince your words and distort them!"

I didn't say another word. Immediately hang up the phone. I gathered all the documents. Recording in the meeting room yesterday. Photo of the resignation agreement. Lawyer letter. Photo of the statement on the company's official account. And also the recording of Chu Khai Minh just using my son to threaten him. Everything is packaged by me. Send it to a lawyer. At the same time... Send it to General Director Ly. He only answered with four words.

"Let me handle it."

Half an hour later. The official mailbox of Nam Thanh Shopping Center sent an email. At the same time, copy to all relevant personnel of Chu Khai Minh company. The content is very brief:

"Because your company has had many inconsistent and arbitrary exchanges changing the person in charge of the project without prior notice, project implementation capacity is not guaranteed, and publicly defaming the previous person in charge of the project..."

"Nam Thanh Commercial Center decided to end the entire cooperation negotiation process for the Nam Thanh project with your company."

"Future cooperation opportunities will be arranged in other ways."

Just that one email... It was more effective than a hundred sentences when I stood up to refute it myself. The company chat group exploded again. The Head of Purchasing sent me a screenshot.

"Done... Nam Thanh officially ended the cooperation."

Right after that, the Finance department also sent a message.

"General Zhou is mad in the office, asking who released the recording."

I answered with exactly one word. The Finance side immediately sent back a 👍 symbol. Not long after... The comment area on Chu Khai Minh's official company account also completely went out of control. Someone posted the important page of the resignation agreement directly.

"Voluntary resignation, immediate termination of labor relationship. Didn't you sign it yourself?"

Someone posted a transcript of what was said in the meeting room.

"'Older, have young children, position can be replaced'... Is this discrimination in the workplace?"

Another anonymous person left a comment:

"I am an employee of the company. When Ms. Hua was here, all projects operated normally. As soon as she left, everything went haywire. Now the company is turning to blame the former employee, it's too unsightly."

Soon... The company deleted those comments. But the screenshot... Has gone viral. To Man sent me WeChat.

"Miss Thanh Hoa, why do we need to push things to this point?"

I looked at her profile picture. It was a selfie sitting in the passenger seat. Through the reflective glass... Chu Khai Minh's hands can also be seen on the steering wheel. I replied:

"When you stole my plan..."

"Why didn't you say it was unsightly?"

"Now..."

"Just let everyone see for themselves, in the end who is more shameful."

A long time later... She still didn't answer. Eight o'clock in the evening. Liu Na called again. There was clearly panic in his voice.

"Ms. Thanh Hoa."

"General Zhou said..."

"Attorney's letter is revocable."
