Chapter 10 — Husband Secretly Transferred 880,000 Yuan, I Made His Whole Family Pay

While I didn't even know it. They have already dug a deeper hole for me. That house. It's money from my parents' sweat and tears. It's the money I've worked hard to accumulate over the years. Yet in the end. It was turned into the common property of the entire Chu family. Look at my pale face. Chu Duc Hai thought he had hit the fatal point. He leisurely returned to the sofa. Cross your legs. The tone was as if granting favors.

“Tham Van.”

“I respect you, you used to be the daughter-in-law of the Chu family.”

“I show you a way to live.”

"Tomorrow."

“Go to the police station and destroy the case file.”

“Saying 880,000 yuan is just a misunderstanding.”

“Voluntarily give up all ownership of the house.”

“Leave empty-handed.”

“Do that.”

“We in the Chu family will let go of the past.”

“And the divorce.”

“We can sit down and discuss slowly.”

Chu Duc Hai stopped. Eyes full of menace.

“If not…”

“Just prepare yourself mentally.”

“Litigation for life.”

“You can't even get a penny.”

“You don't even want to stay.”

I was like a lost soul walking out of the Chu family. The night wind was cold on my face. Sharp like invisible blades. I drove out of the residential area. Stop on the side of the road. Then put your head on the steering wheel. For the first time since everything happened... I clearly felt powerlessness. It's cold to the bone. I used to think I was strong enough. Be alert enough. But in the end, I still underestimated the shamelessness of the Chu family. They are like a bunch of hungry leeches. A long time ago. Planned to drain my blood. Take every penny out of me. Then kick me out of their lives. I called Truong Man. My voice was shaking so much that I couldn't control it.

“Man Man...”

“Maybe... I really lost this time.”

I told the whole story on the home ownership certificate. The other end of the line was silent for a long time. Finally, Truong Man spoke up. Her voice was heavier than ever.

“First you have to calm down.”

“This... is really difficult to deal with.”

I tightened my grip on the phone. Truong Man sighed.

“Because the signature is your own.”

“Legally.”

“It is extremely difficult to cancel the addition of co-ownership after signing the confirmation.”

“Unless…”

She stopped.

“Unless we can prove that you signed the papers under deception or coercion.”

“But wanted to prove it…”

My heart felt like it was sinking to the bottom of the abyss. Little by little. Little by little. Does it really end like that? My parents' sweat and tears. The years I risked my life working. Will everything fall into the hands of those people? I'm not committed. Absolutely not committed. After hanging up. I'm still sitting in the car. Outside is pitch darkness. My head is as chaotic as a tangle of threads. Chu Minh Khai. Bach Vy Vy. Chu Minh Kiet. Chu Duc Hai. Each disgusting face continuously appeared before my eyes. I was stunned. Bach Vy Vy! I straightened up. Breathing becomes rapid. In that USB. There are many recordings between Bach Vy Vy and Chu Minh Khai. I only focus on the apartment in Chu Minh Kiet's name. And Vuong Lan's securities account. But what if... What if there were other things inside? What if it has something to do with my house? Like a drowning person who suddenly touches a piece of wood to save his life. I immediately called back Truong Man.

“Quickly check all the recording files on the USB!”

“Listen to everything!”

“Don't miss a single word!”

Truong Man is very smart. Just listen to one sentence and you'll understand what I mean.

“I'll do it now.”

That waiting period. Every minute and every second feels like a century. I don't dare go home. I don't want to go anywhere either. Just sit still in the car. Look at the street lights outside the window. Quietly waiting. Don't know how much time has passed. The phone finally rang. It's Truong Man. Just picked up the phone. I heard the excitement in her voice.

“Found it!”

“You are my lucky star!”

My heart was pounding. Truong Man almost shouted:

“End of a recording!”

“Chu Minh Khai is showing off to Bach Vy Vy!”

“He showed off how he tricked you!”

Truong Man imitates Chu Minh Khai's voice. Read each word back to me.

"Don't worry, baby."

“That house will be ours sooner or later.”

“Last year I added my brother's name to the book.”

“You tricked that idiot Tham Van into thinking it was a bank loan document.”

“She didn't even look, she just signed.”

"Wait until I finish emptying her hands of all the money."

“I will kick her out of the house.”

“Until then…”

“She doesn't even have a place to live!”

I tightened my grip on the steering wheel. Whole body trembled. But no longer out of desperation. But out of anger. And rejoice. A feeling of survival after coming out of death's door.

“That recording…”

“Can you make proof?”

"Okay!"

“It's so good!”

Truong Man answered without hesitation.

“This is his direct confession!”

“It is the clearest evidence proving deception!”

“Not only can Chu Minh Kiet's name be removed from the ownership certificate.”

“We can even sue the Chu family for fraudulent collusion!”

Her voice became more and more excited.

“Chu Duc Hai thought he had squeezed your vital point.”

“But he didn't expect it in his dreams.”

“My precious son.”

“Just because I want to please little third.”

“Sold out all the family's trump cards!”

“Do it yourself.”

“Dig your own hole and bury yourself.”

“It's truly a magnificent sky net.”

“Even though it's rare, it's hard to miss!”

I hung up. Tears finally fell. But this time. Not tears of despair. But tears of joy. It's the feeling of being pulled back from the edge. I dry my face. Start the car. Turn around. Drive straight towards the Chu family. How hard it was for me to leave. So now. I will return gloriously like that. Fifteen minutes later. I stood in front of the Chu family's door. Ring the bell. The person who opened the door was Chu Minh Kiet.
