Chapter 1 — Husband Announces Stepson as Heir, And I Reach Top 47 Global Assets

My Husband Publicized His Stepson as His Heir, I Turned Back Everything, Making Him Regret Crazy I was married to him for ten years. I took the Luc family from a small company to an industry-leading enterprise. At the tenth wedding anniversary party, in front of all the shareholders, he led a strange woman and an eight-year-old boy onto the stage.

"This is my son. From today, he will be Luc Thi's only heir."

The whole hall was shocked. Everyone is waiting to see my joke. I didn't cry, nor did I make a scene. Just quietly took off the wedding ring on her hand and dropped it into a glass of wine. The next day, the divorce agreement was sent to his office. I did not take a penny of property. Three months later. When he opened a financial magazine, he almost crushed the coffee cup in his hand. The trembling assistant brought the documents to:

“The CEO, his wife... she is already ranked 47th in the global wealth rankings.”

My name is On Tinh. I have been married to Luc Thanh Vien for ten years. He and I went from a small factory with only a dozen employees to gradually building the industry's leading commercial empire today - Luc Thi Group. From an inexperienced new graduate, I became someone whom everyone I met in the business world had to respectfully call: General Director On. I used to think that those ten years were the complete fulfillment of both love and career. Today is the 10th anniversary of the establishment of Luc Thi Group, and also the 10th anniversary of Luc Thanh Vien and I's marriage. The party was held at the most luxurious hotel in the city. Guests were bustling, glasses and cups were raised non-stop. I put on a high-class costume designed by myself, stood next to Luc Thanh Vien, and received blessings from everyone. He raised his glass of wine, his eyes still gentle as always.

“On Tinh, you have worked hard.”

I smiled slightly, planning to answer. At that moment, the large door of the hall was suddenly pushed open. A woman wearing a white dress, leading a boy about seven or eight years old, stood timidly at the door. The woman has a delicate face, with a weak look that makes people feel sorry for her. As for the features on the boy's face... It's exactly like Luc Thanh Vien when he was young. The laughter in the hall immediately disappeared. All eyes turned to mother and daughter. Then they all turned to look at me. Pity. But even more so is the joy of witnessing a good play. The gentleness on Luc Thanh Vien's face disappeared. He frowned slightly, but didn't look panicked at all. He let go of my hand. Under everyone's attentive gaze, step by step they moved towards the woman and child. No scolding. Don't chase them away either. He just bent down and gave the boy a smile full of fatherly love that I had never seen in all these years. After that, he held the mother and child's hands and took them onto the stage. At that moment, my heart felt like it was strangled by an invisible hand, then thrown straight into the cold ice cellar. Luc Thanh Vien picked up the microphone. The voice echoed throughout the hall.

“Dear shareholders and distinguished guests, please excuse me for a few minutes.”

"Ask for Introducing, this is Anya, and this is my son, Luc Tu Hao."

He stopped for a moment. His eyes scanned the entire hall, finally landing on me. There was not a trace of guilt in his eyes. There was only the coldness of someone announcing a predetermined decision.

“From today onwards, Luc Zi Hao is my only son.”

“Also the sole heir of the Luc Thi Group.”

The whole hall immediately erupted into commotion. The shareholders looked at each other in surprise. The reporters' flashes flashed continuously. Became the biggest joke at the party. Ten years of dedication. Ten years of dedication. The commercial empire that he and I built with our own hands eventually had to be given to a stepchild. Tieu Nha, my assistant, was so worried that she was about to cry. She quickly ran over to help me. But I gently pushed her hand away. I don't cry. Also don't cause trouble. I just quietly looked at the three people standing on the stage. Luc Thanh Vien protected that woman. The woman held the child in her arms. The boy timidly hid behind them. How much they looked like a real family. And I'm standing here... Like a superfluous outsider. I slowly raised my left hand. The ten-carat pink diamond wedding ring on the ring finger reflected the dazzling light. Three years ago, in a charity auction, Luc Thanh Vien spent 80,000,000 yuan to buy it for me. At that time he once said:

“This unique diamond is worthy of the unique Wen Qing.”

Now that I think about it... How ridiculous it was. I slowly took the ring off my finger. One finger at a time. So slowly that it feels like a century is passing. Then, I picked up the glass of wine on the table next to me. In front of everyone. I let go. The ring fell into the dark red liquid. The surface of the wine rippled a few small waves and then quickly sank to the bottom. Exactly like my feelings for the past ten years. After all is done. I didn't look at Luc Thanh Vien again. I lifted my skirt. Turn around. Straighten your spine. Step by step, step by step. Leaving the hall that had turned me into a laughing stock. Behind him was dead silence. And immediately after that there were even more intense discussions. But all of that... No longer has anything to do with me. Returning to the villa that Luc Thanh Vien and I have lived together for ten years. I don't have any attachment left. Every corner in this house was arranged by my own hands. But looking back now, I just feel cold and strange. I stayed up all night. Not because of heartache. But because it's busy. As soon as it was dawn, my personal lawyer, Chu Dich, led his entire team to appear at the door of the villa. As soon as he saw me, he immediately bowed respectfully.

“Eldest lady.”

I nodded slightly and gave him a list.

“Lawyer Chu, follow what is written here.”

Chu Dich received the list. With just one look, his face changed. On it is written all the assets related to Luc Thi in my name, along with all the guarantee agreements that I have signed for Luc Thi Group.

“Miss, this…”

“I want a divorce.” I said calmly.

“About the division of assets…”

“I don't take a penny.”

My voice is very light. But extremely determined.

“In addition, please prepare a divorce agreement and immediately send it to Luc Thanh Vien's office.”

“There is only one request.”

“I left empty-handed.”
