Chapter 7 — Husband Announces Stepson as Heir, And I Reach Top 47 Global Assets

Luc Thanh Vien has sky-high aura. Smile gently. His eyes were filled with trust and love for him. There was a time. He thinks he is the king of this world. And On Tinh. Just the most precious jewel in his crown. But only today did he understand. He was never a king. Just a fool wearing a crown given to him by someone else. Then I thought I owned the whole world. That crown. Now it has been personally taken back by its true owner. Summer Solstice conditions. Like a blade hanging from the top of his head. It meant losing the empire he had been striving for for ten years. Not accepted. Then there is only the path of broken bones and broken flesh. Pride. Self-esteem. They were all crushed into pieces by cruel reality. Right at that moment. The phone rang shrilly. He is An Nha's older brother. A person whose name he couldn't even remember.

“Hello, brother-in-law!”

“I heard the company has been having a bit of trouble lately?”

“Don't worry, I'll bring a few brothers to help right away!”

“Let me tell you, if the suppliers don't listen, they have to use some tricks.”

“Make sure to treat them!”

On the other end of the line. The sound of mahjong hitting each other. Vulgar curses rang out non-stop. First time. Luc Thanh Vien felt that sound was so disgusting. He let out a roar. Use all your body strength. Then hang up directly. He can imagine. Anya's family members right now are like flies smelling blood. Can't wait to rush forward. Tearing away every last bit of flesh on the rotting corpse named Luc Thi. He really wanted to meet me. An unprecedented nostalgia. Crazy and intense. He rushed out of the office. Driving back to the villa we lived together for ten years. But inside. Empty. Everything that belonged to me was gone. It's like the woman named On Tinh never existed in this place. He frantically called people he knew.

“Hello, Mr. Vuong, have you seen On Tinh?”

"Wen Qing? No. General Manager Luc, aren't you two already divorced?"

“Where is she?”

“Do you know where she is?”

"I... I really don't know. Since you two divorced, she has never contacted us again."

Every call gets the same answer. It's like it's disappeared from the world. Completely disappeared from his world. Until that moment. Luc Thanh Vien really felt the panic. A fear that goes deep into the bones. Fear of things you cannot control. He began to vaguely realize. Maybe all that's going on. It's all related to the woman he once threw away like an old thing. How is that possible? A woman like me. Why do you have such great power? The clock hands are still moving minute by minute towards the final deadline. Luc Thi's stock price. Once again reduced to the floor. The CFO called. The voice was almost crying.

“General Manager Luc…”

“We can't stand it anymore.”

“If tomorrow there is still no money poured in…”

“We will have to file for bankruptcy protection…”

Every road. All have been blocked. Green Thanh Vien sat down on the cold floor. His face was pale and bloodless. He picked up the phone. On the screen is Chu Dich's phone number. He hesitated for a long time. It's like I've used up all the strength I have left in my life. He pressed the call button. The phone is quickly connected.

“Are you done thinking about it yet?”

Chu Dich's voice was still as cold as before. Luc Thanh Vien closed his eyes. The pharynx moved slightly. When opening your mouth. His voice was as hoarse as sandpaper rubbed together.

“I accept.”

In the end, Luc Thanh Vien still signed his name. When the last stroke of his pen landed on the last page of the share transfer agreement. He felt like his soul had been drained as well. The empire he personally built. I've poured my heart and soul into it for ten years. Since that moment. In terms of law. No longer belongs to him. Chu Dich took back the documents. There was still no unnecessary emotion on his face.

“Mr. Luc.”

“Wish us a happy cooperation.”

Behind him. The takeover team sent by Ha Chi Dau Tu stepped in one by one. The leader is a woman over thirty years old. Sharp demeanor, clear abilities. She walked straight in front of Luc Thanh Vien and held out her hand.

“Hello, Mr. Luc.”

“I am the new CEO of the company, Ly Tu.”

“Please complete the handover procedure.”

What a cold word. He handed over the office key. Hand over the corporation's highest authority password. Handing over the access card symbolizes status and power. Every single thing is delivered. His face turned even whiter. Like a king stripped of all his clothes. Standing naked before his own people. After completing all procedures. He walked out of the meeting room. In the hallway. When his old subordinates saw him, they immediately bowed their heads.
