Chapter 9 — After transferring 150,000 Yuan, I turned the table on the marriage

“So why did you do that?”

“What is the purpose?”

Trieu Khai took a deep breath.

“It's Khuong Vi!”

He pointed straight at Khuong Vi.

“He begged me to do it!”

“After Ton Nhue got pregnant, we were very scared.”

“I have a family... I don't dare let things break out.”

“Khuong Vi found me and came up with a plan.”

"He said his wife had money... but he was strong, he wanted a divorce for a long time."

“As long as I agree to let him recognize the child as his own…”

"He will use that child to force his wife to divorce, then divide the assets."

“After getting the money… he will leave Ton Nhue and return the child to me.”

“And give me 1,000,000 yuan to cover my mouth.”

The whole plan... was overturned. A play from start to finish. Khuong Vi is the person behind it. Trieu Khai and Ton Nhue cooperated. Truong Lan stood behind and pushed the waves. All… targeting my assets. They see me as prey. See my marriage... as a stepping stone to make money. The courtroom was silent. Even the air seemed to freeze. The judge's face turned cold.

“Defendant Khuong Vi!”

“The statement just now… is it true!”

Khuong Vi was startled as if he was pulled back to reality. He jumped up, pointed at Trieu Khai, and screamed.

"You speak nonsense! You slander me!"

“You are the one who is jealous of me!”

“You are the one who set the trap for me!”

"The child is mine! Ton Nhue is also mine!"

“You guys conspired to harm me!”

He started biting back. But in front of the mountain of evidence... his words just seem like a farce. Lawyer Ly stood still and watched him act. Waiting for him to finish speaking, he spoke up.

“Your Honor, this is the final proof.”

He submitted a recording.

“This is a call between Khuong Vi and Trieu Khai.”

"The content... is to discuss property division."

The recording sounded. The two men's voices were clear.

“Done, 1,000,000 yuan, I don't owe you.”

“If it comes out, we're both done.”

"Don't be afraid, she's been led by my nose."

"Waiting to get the money... everyone goes their own way."

The recording ends. Khuong Vi... collapsed. All lies... shattered. He's done. Truong Lan... is done. The mother and daughter... dug their own grave. The judge declared. Due to the complexity of the case, the divorce part will be heard later. But the other crimes… are clear. Jiang Wei was sentenced. Eight years in prison. Truong Lan for committing fraud as an accomplice was sentenced to three years in prison, while Trieu Khai for being involved in collusion to appropriate property will have his case processed separately in another case. The wooden hammer made a dry "click" sound, as if closing the entire chaotic life that I had been caught up in with no way out. Khuong Vi and Truong Lan were escorted out by the police, Truong Lan continued to scream and curse non-stop:

"You bastard! You will not have a good end! Trieu Khai, you will also die in peace!"

As for Khuong Vi, he didn't cry or struggle. It was only when he passed by that I stopped and looked up at me for a long time, his eyes filled with all kinds of emotions that I had never seen before. There was hatred, there was regret, there was also a numb emptiness that sent chills down one's spine. Then he turned away and walked down the dark path he had chosen. The trial ended, I stepped out of the gate, the afternoon sunlight shone straight into my eyes, causing me to squint, as if I had just woken up from a long dream. My parents rushed over, my mother hugged me tightly, her voice trembling run:

"Tieu Hi, it's over... everything is over..."

My father patted my back and said in a choked voice:

“You have suffered, my good daughter…”

I leaned on my mother's shoulder, gently shook my head, my voice was light but clear:

“No suffering.”

“Now… I don't feel miserable anymore.”

Lawyer Ly also came out, smiled and said:

“Miss Tran, congratulations.”

"Even though the divorce verdict hasn't been announced yet, there's nothing to worry about about the result."

"Khuong Vi currently has no assets left in her name, the transferred money will be forcibly recovered, her and the child's rights have been protected to the maximum extent."

I looked at him and said sincerely:

“Lawyer Ly, this time… I really thank you.”

He just smiled slightly:

“This is my job.”

“But to be honest, this is the most satisfying lawsuit I've had in the past twenty years.”

At that moment, Trieu Khai and his family quietly walked out from the other gate, his wife cried and beat him:
