Chapter 11
Chapter 11 — I am no longer anyone's ladder
Frame by frame. Everything is clear in every detail. Hua's mother's cries immediately choked up. Father Manh Giai also no longer bangs on the table. I said slowly:
"This is just the beginning."
"There's also backstage recording."
"Chat history."
"Payment documents."
"If you think the company is unfair."
"A complaint can be made according to the correct procedure."
"Truong Dieu will fully cooperate."
Until now. Hua Niem An just raised her head.
"On Nam Chi."
"Do you have to force me to die?"
I looked at her.
"From yesterday until now."
"I gave you two chances."
"First time."
"I told you to hand over the recording to the investigation team."
"Second time."
"I won't pursue further your slander against me."
"Today..."
"You brought your whole family to cause trouble."
"That was the third time..."
"You chose the wrong path."
Mother Hua immediately turned around.
"Recording what?"
Hua Niem An's face immediately turned pale. Manh Giai burst into tears.
"It was Ms. Hua who told me to do it."
"She said Manager Wen was the third person."
"Also said that General Manager Luc will kick her out sooner or later."
"I just believe it."
Hua Niem An turned around and shouted loudly.
"Don't blame it all on me."
"When you asked for the position of Head of Department..."
"Why didn't you say that?"
The two immediately argued right in front of their parents. Outside the reception room. Standing in a line of employees. No one stands up for them anymore. I stood up.
"Uncle Luong."
"Just handle it according to the correct procedure."
There's no one stopping me anymore. Three days later. Truong Dieu officially announced the rectification plan. Luc Thua Chu was relieved of all management positions. Luc Hoai Dan directly took over the Nam Thanh project. The results of handling Hua Niem An and Manh Giai... Were simultaneously sent to the industry association for record keeping. The Wen family... Did not immediately restore all cooperation. Only keep the most basic item. To ensure salaries for project staff. And complete unfinished work. Mom called to ask me.
"Can't you bear it?"
I smiled softly.
"I can't bear..."
"Are people who really work..."
"Must die unjustly."
The other end of the line. Mom laughed.
"You really look like your grandfather."
I also laughed.
"Stop praising."
"I'm still angry."
"If you're angry, go back to Van Chau."
"We just got a new project here."
"There is a shortage of people in charge."
I looked at the marriage annulment declaration on the table. The day I left Nam Thanh. Luc Thua Chu chased him all the way to the airport. He lost a lot of weight. I don't even bother shaving my beard. In my hand... Still holding the old ring box.
"Nam Chi..."
"I signed the declaration of annulment."
I nodded slightly.
"I got it."
"My father..."
"I've sent you down to the warehouse as a base employee."
"You said..."
"When will you learn to respect others..."
"Then we can go back."
I calmly replied. Luc Thua Chu smiled bitterly.
"Is there really no pain left?"
I looked at the line of people lining up in front of the boarding gate. For six years. I've been heartbroken by him too many times. He stayed up all night. I bring medicine to your place. He was reprimanded by the Board of Directors. I stood up and drank instead. His father is seriously ill. I stayed up at the hospital with him every night. Every time he says... I will become stronger. I believe it all. The person who made me heartbroken... Was the guy who always tried his best that year. Not the man later... Stepped on me to get it another woman's heart. I looked at him.
"Luc Thua Chu."
"I was heartbroken."
A ray of hope immediately flashed in his eyes. I gave my boarding pass to the check-in agent. Then speak softly.
"It's all used up."
The light in his eyes... Little by little, it went out. I never turned around. After returning to Van Chau. I took on the new project that my mother mentioned. The project is located in Lam Giang old town. Related to renovating old commercial areas. There are many complex issues. Right at the first meeting. The boss from the other side smiled when he saw me.
"Miss On is so young."
"Is President Wen confident in handing over the project to you?"
I opened the file.
"If you're worried about age..."
"Let's just look at the plan first."
"If the plan fails."
"Let's talk about changing people."
The smile on his face immediately disappeared. Two hours later. It was he who actively pushed the contract towards me.
"It's because I have blind eyes."
I finished signing. Suddenly remembered Luc Thua Chu. I'm always afraid of standing out too much. It will make him uncomfortable. I helped him patch each hole. But give all the credit to him. I faced the questions on his behalf. Tell everyone again... Those are all results of his own efforts. To the end. He really thinks... Those stairs... were originally created for me to walk up. But now... It won't be like that anymore. What is mine... Must bear my name. One month later. News came from Nam Thanh. Truong Dieu's Nam Thanh project... Has been retained. Uncle Luong sent me a photo. Several veteran employees stood in front of the project sign that had just been lit again. Everyone smiled very reassuringly. He also texted one more sentence.
