Chapter 18 — I Give Up Everything, Always Give Up My Fiance, Never Give Up My Life

Inside was empty, no one was there, only a pile of blackened ashes remained, looking like clothes had been burned, in the air there was a strange burning smell that was hard to put into words.

“Where are you?!” Ta Doan Hanh shouted loudly, turning to question the guards guarding him.

The bodyguard immediately knelt to the ground, his whole body shaking like a leaf.

"Your Highness forgive me! I... I don't know! I was fine just now, but suddenly it caught fire... inside... no one ran out inside..."

A woman rolled and crawled out of the smoke, picked up something and screamed: "This... this is Tham Dieu's brooch! The old slave recognized it!" The brooch had been burned black by fire, but its shape was still vaguely recognizable. Right after that, someone dug through the ashes and pulled out a jade pendant that had been burned and deformed, but it was still barely visible as something the woman often carried with her.

"Could it be... could it be that Tham Dieu..." someone whispered tremblingly.

“Burned to death?”

That word was like a plague, quickly spreading throughout the crowd. When Tham Nguy and Chu Thi rushed over, upon hearing that sentence and seeing the two "relics", Chu Thi's eyes widened and she collapsed unconscious on the spot. Tham Nguy also staggered and almost couldn't stand, his face was as white as paper. Ta Doan Hanh stared dumbly at the ashes, his eyes constantly changing, with fear, skepticism, but most of all anger and loss of control when the plan was broken.

“No way!”

He growled softly.

“How could she just die like that!”

At that moment, a timid voice rang out. A family official followed to watch the excitement. The sound was not loud, but it clearly reached the ears of everyone present:

"Master Shen, Mrs. Tham would like to express her sadness... it's just that... Miss Tham Dieu is no longer alive, so what should we do about Miss Bieu's illness? Didn't we say that... we must have Eldest Miss Tham's bloody heart to save us?"

This word was like a thunderclap across the sky, instantly waking up Tham Nguy and Chu Thi! Tham Dieu is dead! So what should we do if their treasure is Giang Nhuoc Ninh?! Who makes the medicine?! Chu Thi had just been pinched to wake up. Hearing these words, she immediately no longer cared about face or circumstances, suddenly grabbed Tham Nguy's arm, and cried loudly:

"Master! Dieu Dieu is dead! So what should I do with Nhuoc Ninh? She can't die! If Dieu Dieu is dead, who will save her!"

Tham Nguy was also so panicked that he lost his mind and instinctively blurted out:

"Quick! Quickly go see that body! See if the blood is still usable or not!"

As soon as these words ended, the whole yard was as quiet as paper. All the guests looked at them with extremely strange eyes, mixed with disbelief. Your biological daughter just died, your first reaction is not sadness and grief, but worry that no one will treat your niece's illness? Even... wanted to take blood from his own daughter's body to make medicine?! This… These are words that a parent can say?! The official's family from earlier "just in time" muttered in a low voice. The sound was low, but still enough for those around to hear clearly:

“Oh my god… this… people If you know, you say it's Miss Biao, but if you don't know, you'll think it's the biological child of Lord Tham and Mrs. Tham... but that's not true, even if it's a biological child, there's no reason for one person to ignore the life or death of the other person like that..."

“Could it be that… this young lady is really…”

Another lady covered her mouth, her eyes moving back and forth between Tham Nguy and Chu Thi, full of suspicion and scrutiny.

“Sigh… you said that, thinking about it carefully, it's really possible…”

“Otherwise, how can we explain this level of bias?”

"No wonder Tham Dieu wanted to run away and cause chaos..."

“If it were an illegitimate child, everything would be clear…”

The gossip spread like a tidal wave everywhere, the eyes looking towards Tham Nguy and Chu Thi were filled with contempt, condemnation, mixed with the excitement of an outsider watching a drama. At this point, Tham Nguy and Chu Thi woke up and realized what they had just said. Facing the deformed eyes and whispers around them, the two people immediately turned red, so embarrassed and angry that they just wished they could find a hole in the ground and crawl down!
