Chapter 18 — Ex-Wife Takes Power

She had a conditioned reflex to withdraw her hand.

“I guess not either.”

I pulled the door open and walked out. Chapter 20 Han Tuyet Tinh sent new documents again. This time it's not a money transfer receipt, but a recording. In the recording is a conversation between Tham Nhuoc Huyen and another person. The time was two months ago, when Luc Canh Tham was still in Berlin.

“When will he return?” The other person's voice was very hurried.

“No rush.” Tham Nhuoc Huyen's voice was extremely relieved, "It doesn't matter if he comes back or not. His shares in Hang Nghiep, as long as he signs a power of attorney, I can help him manage it. Once I get the right to represent him, it doesn't matter whether he's there or not."

“What about his wife?”

"She's an ex-wife. What can she do? A housewife, what the hell does she know?"

“So what do you plan to do after you get the right to represent?”

Tham Nhuoc Huyen laughed.

"That piece of Hang Nghiep meat, I couldn't swallow it all, but it was no problem to take a bite or two. By the time Canh Tham regained consciousness, the money worth transferring would have already been transferred."

The recording stops here. I listened to it twice, then put the phone down. Tham Nhuoc Huyen's relationship with Luc Canh Tham has never been true love. It wasn't from the beginning. What she was aiming for was not the person, but the chair behind that person. The numbers stuck on that chair are what she really desires. I opened the dialog box with Ha Thanh Duong and sent the recording over.

“Put this away first. It's not time to use it yet.”

“When should I use it?”

“Waiting for Luc Canh Tham to personally tell me 'Tham Nhuoc Huyen truly loves me'."

“Are you sure he will say that?”

“I will definitely say it.”

When a man loses everything, the last thing he can cling to is the thought "At least there is still someone who loves me". Waiting until the day I destroy that thought, his world will truly collapse completely. But no rush. I had to let him crawl up and stand on his own, then I removed the board from under his feet. That's how painful it is to the bone. Chapter 21 Announcement date of Van Cam Project approval results. Hang Nghiep's large meeting room was filled with seats. All members of the Board of Directors, department directors, legal department, finance department, and independent directors attended via video call. Luc Canh Tham was also present. He sat in the third position on the right side of the meeting table, no longer the chairman, but his demeanor was still very preserved: back straight, hands clasped together on the table top. Tham Nhuoc Huyen did not come. She didn't dare show her face to Hang Nghiep anymore. At exactly ten o'clock in the morning, my phone rang. It's Phuong Dich Than.

“It's won.” Exactly two words.

I put down the phone and looked around the hall.

“Gentlemen, just received notification from the review board.”

"Van Cam Project joint venture package, Hang Nghiep - Thien Thinh joint venture has won the bid."

The meeting room was silent for a second. Then everyone spoke at the same time, their sounds mixed together.

“Did you really win?”

“That's great!”

Some people stood up and clapped, some people pounded the table, some people immediately took out their phones and texted the good news. Chu Hoanh Dat - who just a month ago sent a message to the group "Taking President Luc's instructions as standard", at this time With cheerful faces and the loudest applause, we led the way. Several veteran directors also nodded continuously, some even gave me a thumbs up. Even Old Sun, who was once dragged out to eat by Luc Canh Tham, was clapping his hands. In the entire meeting room, there was only one person who did not move. Luc Canh Tham. He was still sitting in the chair, his hands remained in the same position, his fingers clasped tightly together, not moving at all. But his face was pale. Not the red-faced angry kind, but the white-faced kind
