Chapter 8 — From the Day No Longer Belongs to You

I said slowly.

“Today, Luc Chieu's mother even brought someone to cause trouble.”

“If they knew I had money…”

“Do you think they will let me go easily?”

Mom was quiet. She is inherently understanding. Just think for a moment to understand what I mean.

“So what do you plan to do?”

“I will still run the studio normally.”

“Assets are deposited in the bank for management.”

"As for outsiders, just say you have some savings so after quitting your job, you'll start your own business."

Mom nodded.

“Mom, listen to me.”

She wiped her tears and spoke softly.

“But it's too hard for me to shoulder everything alone.”

“If possible... find someone to help you.”

I smiled reluctantly.

“I don't want to think about that right now.”

“Okay, okay.”

Mom quickly waved her hand.

“I won't mention it again.”

When I left my mother's house, it was almost ten o'clock at night. The phone shows three new messages. The first message was from So Lieu. He sent the signed contract. The project was officially launched. The second message came from Qin Yun.

"The arbitration session has been moved to early. The session will open next Wednesday."

“Thinh Hang's legal department has also changed the person in charge.”

“I just checked, the person who directly approved it was Hua Tranh Vien.”

Hua Tranh Vien... Personally approved? I frowned slightly. An arbitration case of an employee who quit his job... It actually caused the corporation's general director to personally pay attention? The third message came from an unfamiliar phone number.

“Miss Ha, I am secretary Trieu, office of the General Director of Thinh Hang Group.”

“General Manager Hua wants to make an appointment to see you.”

“If it's convenient, please call back.”

Hua Tranh Vien wants to see me? I thought for a moment then dialed back. Secretary Trieu quickly picked up the phone. He said General Director Hua wanted to make an appointment with me at ten o'clock the day after tomorrow. The location is the reception room on the top floor of Thinh Hang building. I agree. After hanging up the phone, countless thoughts quickly appeared in my mind. Why did Hua Tranh Vien want to meet me? Logically speaking... An arbitration case of a former employee is absolutely not worth the corporation's general director personally getting involved. What he wants to resolve... It's not just the arbitration case. Two days later. At exactly ten o'clock in the morning, I was at the Thinh Hang building. The last time I walked into this place... It was when I held a cardboard box and quietly left. As for today... I wore a neat black suit, my hair tied neatly at the back of my neck. The receptionist recognized me, slightly surprised, but still politely led me to the top floor. The reception room is very spacious. Through ground-level glass, the entire skyline of nearly half the city can be captured. Hua Tranh Vien was already waiting. He is over fifty years old, his hair is already gray. The face is serious but does not create a feeling of pressure. As soon as he saw me walk in, he immediately stood up and shook my hand.

“Tieu Ha, sit down.”

“Hello, General Director Hua.”

Tea is prepared on the table. He personally poured me a cup.

“I saw your email.”

He went straight to the point.

“General Manager Hua…”

I looked at him calmly and asked.

“After watching, how do you feel?”

“The matter is very clear.”

Hua Tranh Vien slowly spoke.

"In the matter of terminating her labor contract, Luc Chieu really handled it inappropriately."

"I asked the legal department to re-check. The anti-competition compensation has never been paid, because So the letter the lawyer sent you is completely unfounded."

“What about the arbitration?”

I asked directly.

"Thinh Hang's side agreed to officially acknowledge the illegal termination of the labor contract."

“We will pay compensation according to regulations, double the standard rate.”

"At the same time, we will revoke the lawyer's letter and will also publicly clarify that she has not committed any violations."

I'm not in a hurry to answer.

“What are the conditions?”

Hua Tranh Vien looked at me, his eyes showing slight appreciation.

“You are very smart.”

He said calmly.

“There is indeed a condition.”

“I hope in the future you will not continue to approach Thinh Hang's customers.”

“General Manager Hua.”

I calmly looked at him.

"Hoanh Dat Real Estate, Ms. Truong and the current customers all proactively came to me, not me."

"On the contrary, about On Y taking my old customer list to call and bother them... do you know?"

Hua Tranh Vien's face changed slightly.

“This... was never reported to me.”

He was silent for a few seconds then continued.

"I will investigate the matter of On Y."

I nodded slightly.

“I can partially accept your conditions.”

“The clients who have signed a contract with my studio, I will not give up.”

“But I can commit to not proactively contacting customers currently on Thinh Hang's list.”

Hua Tranh Vien thought for a moment then nodded. Then, he suddenly changed the subject.
