Chapter 4 — Husband Secretly Transferred 880,000 Yuan, I Made His Whole Family Pay
Chu Minh Kiet laughed.
“I will go to your company to cause trouble.”
“I will put up a banner in front of your house.”
“I will let everyone know what kind of cruel woman you are.”
“Because of money, I put my own husband in jail!”
His voice was full of satisfaction. As if victory was certain.
"Okay."
I laughed.
“Then I wait.”
I hung up the phone directly. Don't give him another chance to say another word. Truong Man sat opposite and listened to the entire call. She shook her head helplessly. There was sympathy in his eyes.
“What kind of life have you been living these past few years?”
“I've been a lawyer for so long.”
“But families this unreasonable are rare.”
“The Chu family is like a bottomless pit.”
“Whoever gets involved will be sucked dry.”
“It's good that you got out early.”
I was silent. No objections. Because she's right. Truong Man reminded again:
“But this kind of person is very dangerous.”
“Especially that brother-in-law.”
"If you look at it, you can tell it's a street scoundrel."
“That kind of person dares to do anything.”
“You have to be careful.”
I nodded. Just put the phone on the table. A new message immediately appeared on the screen. Chu Minh Kiet. Just one short sentence. But it's filled with threats.
“Very well, Tham Van.”
“You are toxic enough.”
“You don't let me live in peace…”
“Then I won't let you live in peace either.”
“See you at the company tomorrow.”
Look at the text on the screen. My eyes gradually became cold. Tomorrow will be very exciting. The next day. I still go to work as usual. My company is a large-scale design institute. And I'm the head of Project Number Two. Before entering the office, I stopped by Director Vuong's room first. She is over forty years old. Work decisively, have a strong style. Up to now I have always highly appreciated my abilities. I don't add salt and fish sauce. Also do not tell injustice. Just calmly narrate the whole incident.
“Director Wang.”
“Sorry for disturbing the company.”
“I have been dealing with some family disputes recently.”
“There is a possibility that someone will come here to cause trouble.”
“I reported it to the police and asked the security department to pay attention in advance.”
“If this affects the company, I am willing to take all responsibility.”
Director Vuong looked at me. There was no curiosity or anticipation in her eyes. Only sincere concern.
“Tham Van.”
“Do we need the company to support us?”
“No need for now.”
“Thank you director, I can handle it myself.”
She nodded.
“You can work in peace.”
“This is the company.”
“Not in anyone's backyard.”
“No one can come here to act rashly.”
Hear that sentence. I was truly relieved. Ten o'clock in the morning. The meeting is halfway done. Suddenly there was a commotion outside. The meeting room door was forcefully pushed open. Tieu Tran, my assistant, had a pale face.
“Director... Director Judge...”
“Outside… something happened…”
My heart sank slightly. The person who needed it has finally arrived. I stood up. Quietly say to everyone in the meeting room:
“Adjourn the meeting for a few minutes.”
Then calmly walk out. The company's large lobby was surrounded. Employees of departments stand in groups. Everyone is looking towards the center. My mother-in-law — Vuong Lan. Sitting on the floor. Slapping her thighs and crying loudly.
“Oh my god!”
“Is there still justice or not!”
“My son works hard to earn money feed the family!”
“And yet this cruel woman threw me into the police station!”
“It wants to force our whole family to death!”
Next to her. Chu Minh Kiet is holding up a white banner. Written on it in red paint were some glaring words:
"THAM VAN — THE CRUEL WOMAN, BECAUSE OF A PROPERTY COMPETITION, Slandered Her Husband!"
He held his head high like a victorious rooster. Loudly shout to everyone:
“Everyone, look quickly!”
“This is our family's good daughter-in-law!”
“Take my brother's money and go out and have fun!”
“Now you're back to slandering him for stealing money!”
“Is there still justice in the world?!”
There was immediately chatter around. My colleagues' eyes looked towards me. There is pity. There are also doubts. Right this moment. In the eyes of many people. I have become the biggest joke in the company. But strangely enough. I didn't panic. Strangely calm. I took a deep breath. Walk through the crowd. Stopped in front of the mother and daughter.
“Enough acting?”
Just saw me. Vuong Lan cried even harder.
“You still dare to appear?!”
“You unscrupulous thing!”
“Our Chu family treats you with kindness!”
“Why did you harm my son like that?!”
Chu Minh Kiet also immediately pressed the banner close to my face. Almost wanted to poke me.
“Tham Van!”
“If you don't speak clearly today!”
“Don't give money here!”
“We will always eat and sleep at this company!”
I looked at the clumsy drama before my eyes. Not angry at all. On the contrary, I just find it funny. I don't answer them right away. But turned to all the surrounding colleagues. Gently bow your head.
“Sorry everyone.”
“It affected everyone's work.”
“This is my personal matter.”
“I will make things right.”
I turned around. His eyes looked straight at Chu Minh Kiet. The voice is not loud. But enough for everyone to hear clearly.
“First.”
“Your brother, Zhou Mingkai, used my fingerprints.”
“Arbitrarily transferred 880,000 yuan from my personal account.”
“That money was the dowry my parents gave me.”
“It was my personal property before marriage.”
“He transferred all that money to a woman named Bach Vy Vy to buy a house.”
“It's called property appropriation.”
