Chapter 8 — Husband Gifted 8 Million Yuan Villa to Thanh Mai, I Recovered All Assets

"You... recording?"

I hung up. Dau Dau was sleeping. She curled up in the blanket, her small hand still clutching the pencil. I sat down by the bed and gently took out the pen. The little girl called out dreamily: I bent down and rubbed her forehead. The phone vibrates. It's a message from Ha Tranh.

"You saw the photo."

"Thu Y, Niem So's situation is very special now, don't force her anymore."

I looked at that text message and suddenly felt like eight years of marriage was like a joke that came too late. He didn't explain. No regrets at all. Didn't even ask if I was heartbroken or not. The only thing he was worried about... was that I would make things difficult for Lam Niem Chu. I only answer one question.

"Tell your lawyer to contact Qin Zhiyuan tomorrow."

Ha Tranh immediately called. I don't listen. Not long after, he sent another message.

"Don't let yourself regret it later."

I placed the phone face down on the table. About half an hour later, Tan Tri Vien called. The other end of the line was very quiet, he was probably still at the law office.

"Miss Khuong, I have received the email and the recording."

"Lam Niem So's call today was very beneficial for the child custody dispute."

"She mentioned the child."

Tan Tri Vien softly said "Hmm".

"But I still have to remind you of something."

"Pregnancy does not mean legally receiving donated property."

"If one party during the marriage arbitrarily disposes of a large amount of common property, the other party still has the right to request a refund."

"I know."

He was silent for a moment then continued:

"There's one more thing."

"The photo you sent, I zoomed in and looked at it very carefully."

I stood up and walked out to the living room.

"Is there a problem?"

Tan Tri Vien replied:

"The upper left corner of the medical examination form was partially covered by her finger, but not completely covered."

"The name on there... is not Lin Niem Chu."

My eyes stopped. He continued:

"I advise you not to expose it tomorrow."

"Just let them continue."

I reopened the photo. Zoom in again. In the upper left corner of the medical examination form, two blurred words appeared. The first word... It's not Lam's family name. The second word is also completely not the word Niem. I stared at those two words. Then suddenly smiled. Lam Niem So sent this photo to force me to back down. But maybe she didn't expect it... What she personally brought... It's not my weakness. It's... the hilt of the knife. The next morning, Tan Tri Vien invited me to the law office. On the projection screen in the meeting room was an enlarged version of that photo. The upper left corner of the medical examination form is almost completely obscured by a finger. But just those exposed pen strokes are enough to prove... The name on it is not Lam Niem So. The assistant gave me another set of documents.

"We found the original photo on a public platform."

"This medical examination form was originally posted by a person named Vien Kha Tam."

"She used to be Lam Niem Chu's colleague."

I flipped to the screenshot page. Vien Kha Tam's post is very simple. She wrote that she was finally waiting for good news. The attached photo... is that medical examination form. Date. Even the crease in the bottom right corner... It's exactly the same. The only difference is that the photo Lam Niem So sent me had the name cut off. I looked at the photo, in There's only a cold piece left in my heart. It's not that she's overconfident. She was impatient. So impatient that he even took someone else's medical examination form to force me to back down. Tan Tri Vien said:

"Miss Vien has deleted the post."

"But after we contacted her, she agreed to come forward and clarify the situation."

"She confirmed that Lam Niem So once borrowed this photo, but had absolutely no idea that she would use it to threaten others."

I nodded slightly.

"Don't go public yet."

Tan Tri Vien looked at me, a glimpse of appreciation in his eyes.

"You want to wait for them to take it out themselves?"

"The more this card makes them trust, the easier it is for them to reveal loopholes."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ha Tranh's phone rang. This time I answered the phone. As soon as he spoke, his voice carried a tired but still imposing tone.

"Three o'clock in the afternoon, go to the coffee shop under my company."

"My mother and Niem So are both here."

"What are you talking about?"

Ha Tranh's voice was low.

"The story of the house."

"The baby thing."

"And the whole Dau Dau thing."

I lowered my eyes. After hanging up the phone, Tan Tri Vien said:

"I'll go with you."

At exactly three o'clock in the afternoon, I arrived on time. Ha Tranh sat near the window, his face looked very poor. Lam Niem So sat next to him, wearing a loose white dress, with a cup of warm water in front of him. Phuong Mai was also present. As soon as she saw me, her face immediately darkened.

"You really dare to come."

"Nien So has become like this but she still refuses to let go of the house."
