Chapter 2 — Let go at the right time, life will bloom

As for Ha Canh Tham... I take it even more for granted. He thinks I love him. So it was inevitable that I would sacrifice for his family. All the way from start to finish. He never asked me... If I was tired or not.

"After this training period ends, you will definitely be promoted to Department Director."

Ha Canh Tham hugged my waist. The voice was full of anticipation.

"At that time, let me take care of you. You don't have to work as hard as you do now."

I just smiled. Because I know... He will never get promoted. Because in the first place... He didn't go to training.

"Then go early, or you'll be late."

I pushed the suitcase to the front door to help him. Stand on tiptoes to adjust your collar so it's neat. Ha Canh Tham lowered his head to look at me. Suddenly seriously said:

"Wife, wait for me to come home."

I stood and watched him carry his suitcase and enter the elevator. Until the elevator door closed. I just returned home. Pick up the phone. Open a pre-saved folder. Inside there is only a screenshot. It's a text message between Ha Canh Tham and a woman named Dinh Vy.

"Darling, I've told my wife. She really believes me. These four months we can finally be together properly."

"Mr. Canh Tham, I'm really looking forward to it. I've booked a hotel, a sea view room at Sanya Bay. You will definitely like it."

"Why are you wasting money? Let me pay. Later I will ask my wife for a card."

The last message... Is a kiss icon sent by Dinh Vy. Sending time... Was one month ago. The person who sent me that photo... is my colleague, Manh Tuyet. That day, she accidentally saw Dinh Vy bragging in a design chat group about her upcoming romantic trip. Attached is a photo of the plane ticket. Departure and destination... Completely different from where Ha Canh Tham told me he was going to "participate in training". At first, Manh Tuyet did not care. Until she opened Dinh Vy's personal page. Then I saw a photo taken together. The man in the photo... is Ha Canh Tham. When sending me screenshots. Manh Tuyet only sent one more sentence.

"Nien Niem, I'm sorry... But I think you should know the truth."

I stared at that photo for a long time. Don't cry. Don't destroy. Even... The heart doesn't beat faster. I just feel... Everything has finally been resolved. His recent continuous overtime. The "closed training" course appeared suddenly. Even good night wishes are becoming more and more superficial. All have been explained. I saved all the screenshots. Then it was as if nothing had happened. Still in the kitchen. Cook Ha Canh Tham a hearty dinner. That night. He eats very well. He also smiled and complimented my cooking skills as they improved. I smiled and picked up the food for him. In my heart... I have begun to calculate the next steps. On the third day after Ha Canh Tham left. I made an appointment to meet someone. Chu Nghien Bach. My college senior. Currently a partner of one of the city's largest law firms, specializing in handling marital and family disputes. We met in a quiet tea shop. After reviewing all the documents I sent. Chu Nghien Bach was silent for a few seconds.

"Are you sure?"

"The evidence I have is still not enough."

"Chat photos can be corrupted say edit."

"Photos taken together on personal pages can also be said to be just colleagues."

"I need more concrete evidence."

I nodded.

"So I need you to introduce me to a professional investigation team."

Chu Nghien Bach looked at me for a moment. Put down the tea cup.

"Tham Niem Sister."

"I've known you for six years."

"You've always been rational to the point of being almost cold."

"But this is about feelings."

"Are you sure you're still calm enough?"

I calmly replied:

"Since the day I saw that screenshot..."

"I don't love him anymore."

My voice was strangely calm.

"What I need now is not comfort."

"A legal knife."

Chu Nghien Bach was silent for three seconds. Then open the folder. Take out a business card and give it to me.

"Find this person."

"Last name Phuong."

"I've been doing this job for fifteen years."

"Never failed."

"Just say I introduced you."

I received the business card. Quietly put it in your bag.

"There's one more thing."

Chu Nghien Bach added:

"The amount I paid for his mother's medicine was nearly 2,000,000 yuan."

"If you can prove that it is the private property of one party during the marriage, and is used to pay large, optional expenses for the other party's family..."

"When you divorce, you have every right to request a refund."

I frowned slightly.

"What is considered 'optional'?"

Chu Nghien Bach calmly explained:

"His mother does need treatment, that's the truth."

"But the responsibility to pay belongs to Ha Canh Tham himself."

"Not you."

"I voluntarily gave up money for the love of husband and wife."

"Now he's having an affair."

"The foundation that made me voluntarily spend money is no longer there."

"This money..."

"We have a huge opportunity to reclaim it."

I stood up.

"Thank you, senior."

"Don't thank me."

Chu Nghien Bach looked at me.

"You deserve someone better."

I did not answer that question. Just turned around and left the tea shop. The sunlight that day was very beautiful. The April wind gently brushes my face. Warm and gentle. It's not much different from the sea breeze in Tam A that Ha Canh Tham and Dinh Vy are enjoying. I called the phone number on the business card.

"Hello, Mr. Phuong, right? I'm Tam Niem So, introduced by lawyer Chu Nghien Bach."

The other end of the line replied very briefly:

"I want to ask you to investigate someone."

"My husband."

"He is currently in Sanya with another woman."

"What's the budget?"

"As much as it takes."

"I just need legal evidence."

"The kind that can be used in court."

"Understood."

"Send all the information you have to this email."

"Results will be available in three to five days."
