Chapter 16 — Locking my card to leave, I left my husband's family stranded in a seven-star hotel

“My current supply chain system is working very well.”

“For the time being, there is no need for outside intervention.”

“President To, your current scale is still small.”

Ma Van Dao put down the tea cup.

“But the growth rate is too fast.”

“Wait until your monthly sales exceed 10,000,000 yuan…”

“The current supplier certainly cannot handle the burden.”

“That's a matter for later.”

“Then I'll say one more thing frankly.”

He leaned forward slightly.

“Your ex-husband, Tran Phong…”

“Still working at my company.”

“His condition has been very bad lately.”

“Every day he goes around saying bad things about her.”

“I'm pushing this down so he hasn't caused any more trouble yet.”

“But I can't hold on forever.”

I looked at him. In a blink of an eye, I understood. This is not an invitation to cooperate. It's intimidation. I slowly spoke up.

“You mean…”

“If I don't cooperate with you…”

“Are you going to let Tran Phong continue to make trouble with me?”

“Oh, I didn't say that.”

He smiled, extending his arms.

“I was just kind enough to remind you of something.”

“In the marketplace…”

“More friends add more sugar.”

“Thanks for the reminder.”

I stood up and picked up my bag.

“But I don't need that kind of friend.”

“General To, don't rush to leave.”

I bowed my head to look at him.

“Let me make one thing clear.”

"Previously, Tran Phong once asked his brother-in-law to falsify an inspection report to denounce my shop."

“In my hand I have the written testimony of his own brother-in-law.”

“If this becomes a big deal…”

“Tran Phong will be held legally responsible.”

I looked straight into his eyes.

“Is his direct leader.”

“If it is later investigated that you knew clearly but did not report…”

“Even participating in…”

“Do you think that's good for your company?”

The smile on Ma Van Dao's face immediately stiffened.

“The matter of cooperation…”

“No need to repeat it again.”

I turned around and left the restaurant. Once outside, I discovered that my palms were covered in sweat. But the steps are still very steady. Back at the studio, I told the whole story to lawyer Co.

“He did not directly threaten you.”

Lawyer Co said.

“So currently it does not constitute a violation.”

“But you have to be careful.”

“This person is much more difficult to deal with than Tran Phong.”

"I know."

“I suggest you take Trieu Chi Cuong's statement to have it officially notarized.”

“In case of unforeseen circumstances.”

That afternoon, I went to the notary office to complete the procedure. When I got home at night, I sat in front of my desk, piecing together everything that had happened over the past half year. Tran Phong was not willing. He watched me live better and better... the more he wanted to drag me down. Initially, I hired someone to spam bad reviews. Then cut off the supply. Next is to falsify inspection reports to denounce. Now even the company's leaders are being dragged in to put pressure on them. are all more escalating than last time. But every time he lost. Because he never understood a thing. It's no longer the old To Niem. She is no longer the woman in the standard room on the third floor, swallowing all her frustrations. The next day, after completing the notarization, Tran Phong came to see him himself. Not to my house. But to the studio. At two o'clock in the afternoon, I was meeting with my team to analyze data after the celebration when the receptionist knocked on the door and walked in.

“There is a man outside who says he wants it see you.”

“Refuse to leave.”

“He said his last name was Tran.”

I stood up and walked out of the meeting room. Tran Phong is standing next to the reception desk. Shirt wrinkled. His face turned yellow. Dark circles under the eyes are very severe. Completely different from the man who once took it for granted that he made me pay for the hotel that day..

“What's wrong?”

I stood three meters away from him, not coming closer. His voice was hoarse.

“You're fired.”

“What does it have to do with me?”

“General Ma fired you.”

“Just because you refused to cooperate with him, he used me to vent his anger.”

“That's between you and your leader.”

“It was you who hurt me!”

He suddenly shouted loudly. The receptionist girl was startled.

“If you agree to cooperate with him…”

“He won't fire you!”

“Tran Phong.”

My voice was so cold that it no longer had any temperature.

“Do you listen to what you're saying?”

“You asked your brother-in-law to falsify a report to denounce me.”

“Your leader used that to threaten me.”

“Now you are fired…”

“Are you turning to blame me again?”

He was stunned.

“You think you don't know?”

I looked at him coldly.

"I have already brought Trieu Chi Cuong's written testimony to be notarized."

“On white paper, black ink is written very clearly…”

“It's me who's behind the scenes.”

His face immediately turned gray.

“I can't treat you like that…”

“After all, we were once husband and wife…”

“We are divorced.”

I took a step back.

“Now you leave my studio immediately.”

“If not, I will call security.”

“Tieu Chu.”

I turned to the receptionist.

“Call the building management.”

"No need!"

Tran Phong gritted his teeth. He pointed straight at me.

“To Niem, just wait.”

“You forced me to this extent…”

“I won't let you go.”

“All your threats were caught on camera.”

I pointed to the camera on the ceiling.
