Chapter 13 — Chess Game Grandfather's Will

I picked up the phone on the table. Press the speakerphone button. The bell rang. Just a few seconds later. The other end of the wire is connected. The familiar, calm voice of lawyer Ly Minh echoed throughout the meeting room.

“Hello, Ms. Khuong.”

“Hello, lawyer Ly.”

I calmly replied.

"Currently I am chairing the meeting to look into responsibility for the serious incident of the group."

"Through investigation, we discovered that Executive Chairman Vuong Hao and many managers appointed by him showed signs of violating the appointment process."

“Lack of responsibility at work.”

“And there are signs of misappropriation of company assets.”

“All relevant evidence.”

“I asked Ms. Tran to send it to your email.”

“As a Strategic Advisor.”

“I officially send you and the legal team three proposals.”

The entire meeting room was suffocatingly silent. Even Wang Hao raised his head. Eyes filled with panic. I looked straight at my aunt's family. Then slowly say each sentence.

"The first."

“Declaring all appointment decisions without my associate signature are null and void.”

“Immediately terminate the contract with those involved.”

"For acts showing signs of misappropriation of company assets by Vuong Kien Quoc and others."

“Recommend starting the legal prosecution process.”

“At the same time, recover all losses for the corporation.”

I stopped. Almost no one in the entire meeting room dared to breathe loudly. Then I looked towards Vuong Hao. His face was as gray as ash.

“I officially propose to conduct an urgent assessment of Executive Chairman Vuong Hao's ability to perform his duties.”

“Also...”

“I also propose to discuss whether the betting agreement should be terminated early or not.”

“To start the process of transferring shares ahead of schedule.”

Just finished speaking. Khuong Man was struck by lightning. The whole person staggered. As for Vuong Hao, he completely collapsed. Because this time. What they are at risk of losing... is no longer their face. Which is the entire 75% stake of Khuong Thi Group. The other end of the line. Lawyer Ly Minh was silent for about three seconds. Just three short seconds. But for some people in the meeting room. It was as long as a century. His familiar voice rang out again. Still cold. Still as precise as a machine operating according to the law.

“Miss Khuong.”

“I have seen all the emails and attachments you sent.”

“The complete chain of evidence.”

“The truth is clear.”

“As for your three suggestions…”

“I represent the Special Advisory Council.”

“Full approval.”

The four words "full approval" just rang out. Like four heavy hammer blows. Straight into the hearts of Vuong Kien Quan and Khuong Man. Vuong Kien Quan's body staggered. I almost couldn't stand. He had to put his hands on the table top. Gold-rimmed glasses slid down the bridge of his nose. It looks extremely pathetic.

“Lawyer Ly!”

“You can't do that!”

He screamed at the phone.

“This is the Wang family's company!”

“I am Wang Hao's father!”

“I have the right to participate in management!”

“You are abusing your power!”

“I will sue you!”

There was a soft laugh on the other end of the line. But full of contempt.

“Mr. Wang Jianjun.”

“I think I need to remind you of a few things.”

"The first."

“This company has the surname Khuong.”

“Not the Vuong family.”

“From a legal perspective, you are completely an outsider.”

“Your so-called manager causing the group a direct loss of more than 50,000,000 yuan in just half a month.”

“At the same time, there are signs of organizing a group of people to systematize the withdrawal of company assets.”

“This is no longer a management issue.”

“It's a serious violation of the law.”

“You want to sue me?”

“I'm always ready.”

“But before that I advise you to find a qualified lawyer.”

“Let's ask about crimes like misappropriation of company property.”

“Illegal use of corporate capital.”

“And receiving illegal benefits in non-state enterprises…”

“If it adds up.”

“How many years will you be sentenced to?”

Every sentence of lawyer Ly Minh. Making Vuong Kien Quan's face turn whiter. To the end. He looked like his spine had been pulled out. Falling down on the chair. Mouth muttering non-stop.

“Committed a crime…”

“Sit in jail…”

“Sit in jail…”

Khuong Man went completely crazy. She grabbed the mineral water bottle from the table. Throw it straight at me.

“Khuong Van!”

“This bitch!”

“You will not die properly!”

“You want to kill our whole family!”

“I risk my life for you!”

Luckily, Ms. Tran reacted extremely quickly. She immediately pulled me aside. The water bottle hit the back wall hard. Made a heavy "bang" sound. Several security guards outside heard the commotion and immediately rushed in. Each person holds one side. Control Khuong Man. But she still kept struggling. Curse. Like a poisonous snake being squeezed to its vital point. And Vuong Hao. That nominal president. Finally there is a response. He burst into tears. Cry like a three year old. Tears and runny nose.

“I'm not president anymore…”

“I won't do it anymore…”

“Dad... mom..."

“Let's go home…”

“I'm so scared…”
