Chapter 10 — Mother-in-law Chooses Ex-Love

"My father now still wants to rely on the Van family to turn the situation around. Aunt Pho is spreading everywhere that sooner or later I will marry into the Van family. I don't want to be seen by them as a product on the shelf anymore."

I believe this. Because I have seen many beautiful girls turned into bartered resources by their families. No matter how elegantly packaged, the core essence is still just a transaction. I took out my phone.

"You send all public documents of Duong Ninh Capital and the parts that you know to me. As for the parts related to your own risks, I advise you to hire a private lawyer."

She looked at me: "Don't you hate me?" I replied: "Hatred requires a lot of energy. Right now you are not expensive enough for me to spend that expense." She was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.

“Lawyer Sam, what you say really hurts others.”

I nodded: "All work requirements." After that day, Tong The Nguyet no longer contacted Van Thoi Nghien. At least not on the surface. She sent me the documents, attaching a sentence:

"I'm preparing to go to Shanghai and withdraw from the Song family's project first."

I texted back:

"Good luck. Before leaving the betting table, remember to bring your chips with you."

Three days later, the main investor of Tu Quang Health - Tinh Hanh Capital - contacted me. They want to invite me to be a full-time legal advisor for investors in this capital raising round. I looked at the email and smiled. Pho Lam Chi thought that if I canceled the marriage, I would withdraw from this chess board. She thinks too much. As for me, when I leave the party, I never forget to pay the bill. 8 Tinh Hanh Capital's projects progress very quickly. When the investment director granted me access to the data room, she deliberately made a phone call.

“Lawyer Sam, Tu Quang knows we invited you, will they pay attention?”

I replied: "If you care, you can refuse to accept the investment." The other side was silent for 2 seconds. "I got it." I plowed through documents until 2 am. Duong Ninh Capital's structure is very roundabout. On the surface, it is a fund in Singapore controlled by Tong Hoai Xuyen, but looking back up there are two layers of BVI (British Virgin Islands) shell companies. Looking further down, in the profit sharing agreement, a company named "Lan Thanh Consulting" appeared. The legal representative has the same name as Deputy Lam Chi's personal assistant. This is interesting. I gathered all the screenshots, business registration documents, fund deposit documents and email history into one folder. At 3 am, Van Thoi Nghien called. I looked at the screen, let it ring until it stopped automatically. He texted: "Tinh Hanh hired you?" I replied: "If you want to discuss work, please contact us via project email." He texted again: "I just found out about my mother's arrangements today." I looked at this text for a few seconds. Again, "I just found out today". In Van Thoi Nghien's life, his mother always seemed to be the last excuse to blame. I texted back: "I advise boss Van to tighten corporate governance." He didn't text anything more. The next day, the Due Diligence meeting took place, with the full presence of senior leaders of Tu Quang Health, Tinh Hanh Capital fund, financial advisors and auditor. Van Thoi Nghien sat in the chair position, his eyes streaked with blood. Deputy Lam Chi did not come. She sent the director of the family asset management office named Wei. Boss Wei smiled and greeted me.

"Lawyer Sam, I have admired you for a long time. In the future, we will have many opportunities to cooperate."

I smiled: "It remains to be seen how the quality of information transparency is." His smile faded a bit.
