"Miss Tong, just now you sat at the main stage listening for 10 minutes, and now you remember to advise? Your reflexes are a bit long, I advise you to go see a neurologist."

Her face was pale. Tan Viet intended to stand up and advise: "Sister-in-law, everyone is angry..."

"Mr. Tan, please stop this title of sister-in-law."

I looked towards their tray.

“In the future, if you want to call anyone your sister-in-law, you can hold an internal meeting to decide, no need to cc (copy) it to me.”

Tham Tu Bach awkwardly rubbed his nose: "Lawyer Sam, there's no need to make such a fuss about it." I laughed.

"Mr. Tham, during the engagement party, your future mother-in-law said that her ex-lover is worthy of being a daughter-in-law, don't you think this is a big deal? When you get married, your mother-in-law publicly says that your wife's ex-boyfriend is more suitable to be a son-in-law, I will definitely remind her to make a little more noise."

He immediately shut up. That's right. If a knife doesn't hit you, you'll always blame others for complaining too much about the pain. Pho Lam Chi finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Sam Chieu Vi, you're a lawyer and you speak and behave so unsightly, who will dare to marry you in the future?"

I brought the microphone closer to my mouth.

"Mrs. Pho, my annual income is 8 figures, I have 3 houses, 2 cars in my name, I hold a position as an equity member of a law firm, my customer contract renewal rate is always top 1. Wanting to marry me, you really need some strength."

Someone laughed below the stage. I add:

"Moreover, I have never begged anyone to marry me. If you want to live with me, please line up and submit your CV for an interview."

My aunt led the applause. My uncle couldn't stop her in time, so he followed suit and patted her twice. Van Thoi Nghien stood in front of me, with panic in his eyes.

“Chieu Vi, let's talk privately.”

I gave the microphone to the MC and picked up my bag.

"Okay. Tomorrow my secretary will send you a list of costs related to the annulment, including jointly purchased furniture, deposit and remaining amount of the wedding party, wedding advance, photography deposit, and money for sharing the decoration of the wedding house. Once you confirm, transfer the money."

He grabbed my wrist tightly.

“Are you calculating our love for over a year into these debts?”

I looked at him.

"Van Thoi Nghien, money is clear, but emotions are not. Luckily, your mother reminded me early tonight, so I was able to cut my losses in time."

I withdrew my hand, walked to the door and stopped.

“Ah yes, Mrs. Pho.”

She looked at me coldly. I said:

"Your impromptu speech today, I had my assistant record it. If in the future there are any rumors about me hanging on to the Van family, being greedy for money, or failing to force a marriage, then Trung Hanh's team of lawyers specializing in honor rights will send you a warning letter. If you can't become an in-law, then don't be each other's customers anymore, the cost is very high."

After speaking, I turned and walked away. High heels stepped on the marble floor, the sound was very crispy. Every step is like clapping for yourself. 5 Leaving the banquet room, Van Thoi Nghien chased after him. His collar is a bit disheveled. This person has always emphasized neatness, from wrinkles on shirts to dust particles on shoe tips. Now it's finally a bit of a struggle.

“Project Vi.”

I stood in front of the elevator and pressed the button to go down.

“If you have something to do, send an email.”

“Don't be like that.”

“What if I am like that?”

He stared at me, his throat rolling: "I know my mother talked too much tonight, I'll make her apologize." I laughed out loud.

“Van Thoi Nghien, the first time I tried on wedding dresses, she used Tong The Nguyet to trample on me, you said you would talk. The second time was a prenuptial agreement, she treated me like a free birthing machine, he said he would handle it. The third time at the engagement party, she went public
