Chapter 10 — At this point, I don't need to act anymore

I looked at her.

“The Trinh family is not finished yet.”

“It's just that from now on, you can't rely on me to live happily anymore.”

On the day the divorce procedure was completed, Trinh Nghien did not bring anyone with him. He stood in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

“Van Van, can I hug you one last time?”

"Cannot."

He smiled bitterly.

“Now you won't even give me this little bit of gratitude.”

I looked at him.

"Your gratitude has been given to someone else."

He bowed his head.

“I will leave Trinh Thi.”

“From now on, I won't bother you anymore.”

I don't answer. Just as I was about to get in the car, Kieu Man suddenly rushed over. She looks much more haggard than before.

“Mr. Trinh!”

Trinh Nghien frowned.

“Why did you come here?”

Kieu Man grabbed him.

“I can't leave you alone.”

“Now I've lost my job, and the baby also…”

Halfway through speaking, she suddenly fell silent. Trinh Nghien shook her hand away.

“Don't come looking for me anymore.”

Kieu Man turned to look at me.

“Hua Van, you forced him!”

“Up to now, do you still think that everything was forced by me?”

Her eyes were red.

"If you didn't have Van Dinh, Mr. Trinh wouldn't have abandoned you."

I walked closer to her.

“Kieu Man, your stupidest thing is to consider a man's greed as a deep love.”

“He can betray me for his own benefit, and he can also abandon you for his own benefit.”

Kieu Man was stunned. Trinh Nghien's face was extremely ugly, but he did not object. In front of the door of the Civil Affairs Department, people came and went non-stop. Someone recognized Kieu Man and began to talk in low voices.

“Isn't that Miss Tieu Tam using a fake diploma?”

“And the person who is pregnant with someone else's child, right?”

Kieu Man covered her face and ran away. Trinh Nghien also left there. Luc Hanh Chu opened the car door for me.

“To the press conference.”

A joint press conference between Van Dinh and Trinh Thi was held that very day. As the executive representative of Van Dinh, this is the first time I have officially appeared in public. Below are partners, media, employees and many people in the industry. I'm not going to give a long speech. Only announce three things. Trinh Thi will change the name and restructure the entire management board. Recover improper payments and compensate affected customers. The International Business Department will be merged into Van Dinh's new business segment, which I will be in charge of. A round of applause rang out below. When it came to asking questions, someone stood up. An old friend of Trinh Nghien and Han Dong. He smiled and asked:

“Miss Hua, I heard that for the past six years you have been working as a department head at Trinh Thi.”

“Now suddenly taking over the company, is this just the result of being supported by family resources?”

The whole hall immediately fell silent. This question is extremely sharp. I looked at him.

"Mr. Han wants to ask if I have the ability or not?"

Han Dong laughed.

“Everyone is very curious.”

I nodded.

“So let's look at the results.”

The big screen lights up. Three newly signed cooperation contracts were simultaneously shown. The total value is up to 68 million yuan. All of this was successfully negotiated by me personally in the past ten days. The smile on Han Dong's face immediately disappeared. Someone below exclaimed in surprise.

“Ten days?”

“Not all of these customers had previously suspended cooperation Star?"

Mr. Truong stood up.

“I can testify.”

“This cooperation, the person I trust is Ms. Hua herself.”

Ms. Luong also stood up.

“Me too.”

Han Dong's face became embarrassed. I looked at him.

“Family resources are just the admission ticket.”

“Whether you can sit firmly or not depends on yourself.”

The applause this time was even louder than before. Luc Hanh Chu sat in the front row and nodded slightly. After the press conference ended, Han Dong was surrounded by a group of people asking questions. He could only smile wryly. I passed next to him. He lowered his voice and said:

“Miss Hua, I offended you just now.”

“Next time before asking a question, check the information carefully.”

His face immediately turned red. After this press conference, no one within Van Dinh doubted me anymore. But new problems also quickly appeared. Cousin Hua Yen, belonging to the second branch of the Hua family, has returned to the country. During the family meeting, she openly spoke up:

"Van Van's divorce story was so loud that the whole city knew about it."

"Now that I've given her new business to be in charge of, will the outside world think that Van Dinh uses people too arbitrarily?"

Several elders simultaneously looked towards me. Hua Yen smiled gently.

“I'm not aiming at you.”

"It's just that Van Dinh is not a small company, it can't bring personal emotions into work."

“Does your cousin want to be in charge?”

Hua Yen did not expect me to be so straightforward. She smiled.

“If the family needs it, I am of course willing to share the responsibility.”
