As soon as she saw the police, Khau My Lan's legs almost collapsed. She frantically explained:

“Comrade police, this is just a family matter!”

“We are one family!”

“It's not a robbery at all!”

A policeman looked at her.

“Are you the owner of this villa?”

“No... it's not.”

“So do you have permission from the owner to enter the house?”

Khau My Lan immediately choked up. The police looked again at the four men next to them.

“Who invited you?”

The man holding the briefcase didn't dare hide it anymore. He pointed to the file on the table.

"It's Mr. Tong Thua Trach."

“The trustee clearly stated it in the records.”

A policeman opened the file. The first page is clearly visible. Villa No. 9 Thinh Dinh Loan area — Preliminary market valuation table. Authorized person: Tong Thua Trach. The air in the living room immediately froze. On the phone, Tong Thua Trach's breathing became heavy. The police picked up the file.

“Where is Mr. Tong Thua Trach now?”

No one answered. I looked at his name still appearing on the call screen. Speak up softly:

“Comrade police.”

“He's on the phone.”

In the blink of an eye. The whole living room was silent. Only the sound of Tong Thua Trach's rapid breathing echoed from the speaker. After the two policemen entered the house, the atmosphere in the living room immediately froze. Just now, Khau My Lan was still holding her hands on her hips and shouting to get rid of people. Now, her hands are shaking so much that she can barely hold the phone. Team leader Vuong quickly summarized the situation on the scene.

"The owner was not present at the house. Through surveillance cameras, it was discovered that someone had arbitrarily entered the house and rummaged through belongings. There were real estate valuation staff and related trust documents at the scene."

A policeman looked towards Khau My Lan.

“Among you, who can explain why he appeared here?”

Khau My Lan opened her mouth. The first reaction is still to put pressure on him as an elder.

“I am his mother-in-law.”

“What's wrong with me going to my daughter-in-law's house to take a look?”

My voice rang out from the speaker system in the living room.

“This is not the house I bought after marrying Tong Thua Trach.”

“This is the pre-marital property my parents left behind.”

“I have never given the key to Khau My Lan, nor have I ever allowed anyone to enter the house.”

Khau My Lan immediately panicked.

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

"He's been married to my son for three years, and he still distinguishes between my family and my family?"

The police voice was still very calm.

“Let's look at the power of attorney first.”

“Who is the owner of the house?”

“I sent a photo of the red book to the lawyer.”

“He will synchronize all the files for you.”

At that moment, Ha Tri Chu's call was connected. His voice was clear and calm.

“I am the lawyer representing Ms. Duong Vy.”

“The ownership certificate, door unlock history, surveillance video, audio files and on-site valuation trust documents have all been compiled by me.”

"The person whose name is on the house is only Ms. Duong Vy."

“The time of ownership is before the time of marriage registration.”

“The origin of wealth is inheritance.”

“Tong Thua Trach is not the owner.”

"Ms. Khau My Lan and the others entered the house without the owner's consent."

The man holding the briefcase immediately turned pale. He quickly took the phone go out.

“We really don't know.”

"It was Mr. Tong who said the family had agreed and asked us to come see the house."

“He said his wife was in another province but had already discussed it.”

Tong Thua Trach is still on the other end of the line. Hearing this sentence, his voice immediately lowered.

“Don't put the responsibility on me.”

The other man was also impatient.

“Mr. Tong, all the messages are still here.”

“You sent us the door code and photo of the secondary door key.”

“I also said that we just need to be a little discreet and not let the neighbors notice.”

The entire living room immediately fell silent. Khau My Lan suddenly turned her head to look at the other man.

“Shut up!”

I laughed again.

“Go ahead.”

The man swallowed.

“We just do pricing.”

"At first, Mr. Tong said to come see the house first today, and tomorrow there will be a preliminary quote."

“If the price is right, he will arrange for the owner to sign the papers.”

A policeman asked:

“Have you ever met the owner in person?”

“Is there a written authorization from the owner?”

"Do not have."

“So why do you guys still come in the house?”

The man bowed his head.

“Mr. Tong said he has the right to decide.”

I look at the image in the camera. His eyes no longer had any temperature. Only now do I understand. Tong Thua Trach didn't just come up with this idea today. He had been planning it for a long time. First steal the key. Then bring someone to set a price. Next, use the value of the house to pressure me. If I don't agree, they will use the couple's feelings to put pressure on me. Use filial piety to create pressure. Using Tong Nha Ky's marriage to put pressure on her. If it still doesn't work, they will tell this story to their relatives. Say I'm cold. Say I'm selfish. Say I don't know how to think about my family. It's just a pity that they miscalculated one thing. It's not that I don't have a temper.
