“Don't just defend.” “You have to turn over all his books.” In the evening, lawyer Han sent me a draft of the lawsuit file. I looked at every page. While watching, I suddenly received a text message from Luc Giai Ky. She sent a recording. My voice was very low. "Sister-in-law, just now we broke things in the house." "He said if you don't take the money out, your mother will go to jail first." "I'm scared." I answered her. "If you're scared, call the police." Luc Giai Ky sent another message. "I have a recording of him and Quy Hoanh in my hand." "But you
I have to promise you not to touch your house." I looked at the screen and smiled coldly. Up to this point she still wanted to keep the house. I answered. "Whether or not the house will be touched is not my promise." "It's up to the books to decide." Half a minute later, she sent a sentence. "Then I won't give it to you anymore." I didn't answer. Because I know that the person who truly holds the lifeline will not be able to let go forever. Sure enough, ten minutes later, she sent it again. news. "Tomorrow morning at ten o'clock." "Under Hai Canh Uyen." "You came alone." 15 I didn't go alone.
The next morning, I took lawyer Han with me and also informed the police in advance. When he saw lawyer Han, Luc Giai Ky's face immediately changed. She turned around to leave. I called back. "If you want to continue taking on the debt for your brother, you can go now." She stopped. The wind blew her hair into disarray, and her whole body was much more emaciated than two days ago. She bit her lip and looked at me. "Sister-in-law, I just want to keep my house." I said. "So you shouldn't have bought a house that was beyond your means in the first place." Her eyes were hollow.
She turned red again. "You don't need to teach me." "I know I'm stupid." "But you guys are scarier." She took out her phone and opened a recording. Luc Minh Xuyen's voice appeared first. "Khuong Du An's money is definitely with Thieu Man." "Pressed from the old lady first." Next was Quy Hoanh. "What if she doesn't accept?" Luc Minh Xuyen said. "There are piles of old documents from six years ago." "Additional agreement, certificate of debt collection rights, photos, enough to scare them." Quy Hoanh smiled. "The woman in the photo doesn't look very similar." Luc Minh
Xuyen said in a cold voice. "It's enough." "If they're scared, they'll give them money." "If they can't get the money, they'll take them to court." My fingers gradually tightened. Luc Giai Ky bowed his head, not daring to look at me. The recording continues. Quy Hoanh asked. "What about your wife's side?" Luc Minh Xuyen said. "She values face the most." "Just pull her mother in, she will soften." "She looks cold on the outside, but on the inside she can't let go of Thieu Man the most." Quy Hoanh asked again. "Is the 5.8 million yuan really in Thieu Man's account?" Luc
Minh Xuyen said. "She's there." "She moved quickly but couldn't escape." "That money accumulated after marriage, I can still block it." The recording stops here. I raised my head to look at Luc Giai Ky. "Is there more?" She shook her head. "I can only record this part." Lawyer Han asked her. "Are you willing to submit as a witness?" Luc Giai Ky's face turned white. "I don't want to go to court." I looked at her coldly. "You want to use the recording to exchange for the house but you don't want to suffer the consequences?" She was talked about without raising her head.
"I really have no choice." "My mother said if I lost my house, my life would be over." I asked her. "What about my wedding house?" "What about my mother's safety?" "What are those things in your eyes?" Luc Giai Ky cried. This time she didn't make excuses. Just squatting on the side of the road, crying until my shoulders shook. I don't help her. She is not a child. She knows what she's signing, knows the loan, knows who the monthly payment comes from. She just didn't expect the hole to collapse right under her feet. Lawyer Han told her
Export the original recording file and write a report. Halfway through writing, she suddenly stopped writing. "If I sign, will you go to jail?" I looked at her. "We have to see what he did." The tip of her pen trembled. Finally signed it. After getting the recording, we immediately went to the police station to add documents. After the police officer on duty listened, his expression became heavy. He said this case will be merged for investigation. After leaving the police station, the bank also called. The deputy director's voice was clearly tense
"Miss Khuong, the internal inspection has had preliminary results." "There is a serious problem with the direct verification process of the mortgage loan." "Customer manager Tran Duong has been suspended." "We will continue to coordinate the investigation." I asked. "What about the loan of eight hundred thousand yuan?" The deputy director said. "The validity of the loan contract needs to be further determined." "But before we have the results, we will not apply any handling measures to mortgaged assets.”This is considered the first good news in a few years
yesterday. But before I could breathe a sigh of relief, lawyer Han's phone rang. After answering the phone, his face darkened. "The court has accepted the request to preserve Luc Minh Xuyen's assets." I asked. "Is it blocked yet?" Lawyer Han said. "Temporarily blocked 5.8 million yuan in Ms. Thieu's account."
