Chapter 17 — I have a mother, no one is allowed to bully me

Below the auditorium... Someone started clapping. Tong Quoc Binh still tried to be stubborn.

"Do that..."

"You can't deny it either."

"Over the past ten years."

"Co Dien Chu has contributed a lot to the company."

"Dedication?"

I looked straight at him. The whole hall... It was so quiet that you could clearly hear the sound of breathing.

"He holds the position of advisor."

"Not going to work."

"No business trips."

"Do not participate in any professional meetings."

"Annual salary 1,200,000 yuan."

"Every year we receive enough."

"All important decisions of the corporation."

"He has never participated in even one thing."

"The only thing he does."

"It's taking advantage of the two years I spent abroad."

"Silently transfer the company's assets out."

I signaled my assistant. On the big screen. Displays a summary of the investigation report. Not all. Just a summary. That was more than enough. Sweat on Tong Quoc Binh's forehead... Drop by drop. He took a step back. Right at that moment. Lam Uyen Nhi's aunt suddenly stood up. shouted loudly.

"Is the Tham family very good if they have money?"

"You guys bullied an orphan girl!"

"Uyen Nhi is being forced by you guys to the point where she has no place to go!"

"You won't end well!"

More than five hundred people in the hall... All turned to look at her. The security team immediately headed towards that direction. I raised my hand to stop him. Don't let them chase you away. I hold the microphone. Just say one sentence.

"You said your niece is an orphan."

"Then let me tell you."

"My daughter."

"Tham Yic Ninh."

"Right in my own home."

"Your niece stole everything."

"Forced to drop out of school."

"Locked up in the storage room."

"Being ordered around like a servant."

"For two years."

"This year..."

"She's only twenty years old."

I stopped. Look across the hall.

"Orphan or not..."

"It's not a matter of whether there are still parents or not."

"But located..."

"How do the people around you treat you?"

"You see Lam Uyen Nhi as a money-making tree."

"And I..."

"I consider Uc Ninh as life."

"That's the difference."

Applause... This time it sounded like thunder. No more wandering. But rolling like waves. Uc Ninh sat in the front row. Red eyes. Tong Quoc Binh and Lam Uyen Nhi's biological aunt... Were "invited" out of the hall by security staff. When leaving. Tong Quoc Binh's legs... Were soft. After the party ended. More than ten businessmen proactively stepped forward. Shake my hand.

"Thanh Van."

"I really admire you."

"If you need help."

"Just open your mouth."

"Your daughter..."

"It's also great."

I held Uc Ninh's hand. The mother and daughter walked out of the hall together. In a corner of the parking lot. There is a black car. The car window is lowered halfway. Lam Uyen Nhi sat inside. Quietly looking at us. Her makeup was smudged. The lipstick stain was still smudged all the way down to his chin. The moment you see me. Her lips moved slightly. As if wanting to say something. Speechless. The car window slowly rolled up. The car quietly left. After the industry's annual party. Everything progressed very quickly. Co Dien Chu... Has withdrawn the divorce lawsuit. Not because he repented. But because the lawyer told him. If you continue to pursue the lawsuit. The only outcome. I just lost the lawsuit... I also had to pay compensation. He proactively sought me out. Not at home. But in the corporation's meeting room. Direction Khiet. All present. He lost a lot of weight. Deep sunken eye sockets. I don't even bother shaving my beard.

"Thanh Van."

"It was you who was wrong."

I asked calmly.

"Where did you go wrong?"

He was silent for a moment. Then he replied hoarsely.

"There should be no bias."

"Don't help Uyen Nhi."

"Don't touch the company's money."

"Don't hide it from me..."

"Do those things."

"How are you going to solve it?"

"What do you want?"

"I will do that."

I looked at him. For ten seconds. Then slowly spoke up.

"The first."

"Divorce by agreement."

"You left empty-handed."

"Shares of the corporation."

"All assets."

"It has nothing to do with you anymore."

Co Dien Chu gritted his teeth. I continue.

"Refund 8,000,000 yuan of Uc Ninh's education fund."

"Within three months."

"There's not that much money."

"Then take a loan."

"I have money to pamper Lam Uyen Nhi."

"There must be money to return to Uc Ninh."

"Publicly apologize to Uc Ninh."

"There's no need to apologize lightly at home."

"But stand in front of me."

"Make it clear for yourself."

"The past two years..."

"What did you do?"

"Did nothing."

Co Dien Chu's throat moved slightly. A long time later. He replied hoarsely.

"... Okay."

Don't haggle a single word. Because he understands very well. All the evidence is in my hands. As long as I want. He could be much more pathetic than he is now. That same day. Divorce agreement is signed. Each clause. All directly drafted by Ha Khon. There isn't a single loophole. When Co Dien Chu finished signing. Put down the pen. His hand... Trembled very slightly. He raised his head.

"Thanh Van."

"It's been fifteen years."

"Fifteen years."

I won't say anything more. There are words... Should have been said two years ago. There are things... Should have been done earlier. It's all out of time. When Co Dien Chu walked out of the meeting room. Staff filled the hallway. Everyone looked at him. No one greeted. Half the people here. These are the employees who have worked with me to build Tham Thi from the beginning. What happened in the past two years? They also know. What did Uc Ninh have to endure? Co Dien Chu quietly walked out of the building. He didn't come home. That house. It's no longer his. He went to Mrs. Co's place. The old lady holds the divorce agreement. Read for a long time. In the end, I just sighed softly.

"It's all..."

"I brought it on myself."
