Chapter 7 — Milk Before Bed and Great Conspiracy

Every word of concern... is gradually bringing him to the end. While stabilizing him, I immediately contacted my parents. I choked up but still told the whole truth, placing a thick stack of evidence in front of them. My parents were both angry and heartbroken. They immediately used all their connections to help me contact a team of leading divorce lawyers. The entire process was kept absolutely confidential. Under the guidance of my lawyer, I began to gradually recover all the assets I had given away. Every step... is tight without any gaps. The wedding house in the city center that year, even though there were two people's names on the book, all the money was spent by me before the marriage, and the transfer documents were in the hands of my parents. I submitted all documents, requested to preserve assets, through the law blocked all transfer and transaction rights, and gradually recovered ownership rights. Next is the three-room house where my mother-in-law and Duong Nguyet Nguyet live, along with the house I bought as her dowry. Both were purchased by me, the ownership was already in my name, and the recovery process went extremely smoothly. At the same time, I also froze all supplementary cards and credit cards in Duong Minh Khai's name, stopped all loans and investments that he made in my name. Cut off... all his money lines. In the past, he spent money like water, from social activities to hush money for Truong Vinh Cuong, he relied on my source of money. In just a few short days, he no longer had any flexible money in his hand, but he only thought it was due to the company's financial process adjustment, and did not dare to ask another question. After dealing with the house and cash flow, I turned my eyes to the family company. He relied on my connections to get into the company, and he also secretly installed many of his compatriots and henchmen. I, on behalf of the quarterly personnel adjustment, check the attendance and performance of those people one by one. Using the excuse of poor performance and violating company regulations, I fired everyone one by one without any respect. I revoked project management rights from him, took back the right to approve finances, and moved him from a core position to an idle position. From a "General Director Duong" who was flattered by everyone... became a person who was left out and had no power. He began to feel something was wrong, asking me if something had happened. I just smiled, reached out to gently rub his arm, and said softly:

"It's nothing, just a little adjustment from the company. Take the opportunity to rest for a while, don't work too hard."

He looked at my gentle face without any flaws, and in the end still swallowed his doubts, completely unaware that... he had been stripped of his power by me, becoming an empty corpse. I sat in the office, looking at the busy traffic outside the window, my fingertips lightly tapping on the table, my eyes cold enough to have no temperature left.

"Duong Minh Khai... the so-called swallowing the entire fortune you want, I won't let you touch even a penny."

"The hurt you caused me, the lies you made up... I will make you pay it back, a hundred, a thousand times over."

Right now… it's just the final calm before the storm. A week later, the family meal specially arranged by the mother-in-law was clearly a "Hongmen banquet". She called all her relatives Relatives arrived, presenting a bustling and prestigious scene, but inside they were full of calculations. Her purpose was too clear: she wanted to use the mouth of her relatives to flatter Duong Minh Khai, then force me to spend money to buy a school district house for the children, and gradually transfer my assets to Duong's family. At the party, Duong Minh Khai still tried his best to play the role of a warm husband. Picking up food for me, with "gentle" movements, turning to ask after Duong Nguyet Nguyet and the two children, hugging her child and refusing to let go, her loving eyes could not hide it. His relatives were all deceived by him, one person said one sentence, another person said another sentence full of flattery, praising him for taking care of his family, having a strong will, saying that I was very lucky to marry such a rare man. The mother-in-law sat on one side, her back straight, her face full of satisfaction. Duong Nguyet Nguyet leaned against her, gently caressing the child, her eyes filled with the look of a winner, as if the property under my name had long belonged to her and her two children. I sat still in my seat, a smile hanging from the corner of my lips that was so faint that it was almost invisible, coldly watching the family of three act, feeling extremely nauseous in my heart. The wine had passed a few rounds and the food was almost gone. The mother-in-law cleared her throat and was about to start talking about the school district. I suddenly put down the bowl and chopsticks. A cold collision sound rang out, cutting through the noisy atmosphere. In an instant, the whole room fell silent. All eyes turned to me. The air froze. My voice is not loud... But cold as ice.
