Chapter 5 — My Husband Fake His Death To Hurt Me, It Ended Up...

"Miss Lam, I found some clues. Three years ago, your company's bankruptcy... there were indeed signs of manipulation. And the person behind it... was most likely Mac Han."

I looked at the message. I replied:

"Lawyer Truong, continue digging. Money is not a problem. What I need... is to make him never have a chance to stand up again."

Putting the phone down, I looked out the window. The night was as thick as ink. But my eyes… were colder than the night.

“Co Mac Han, do you think you can escape by pretending to be dead?”

"Innocent."

“This time, I will let you see with your own eyes…”

“One by one — everything you were once proud of… was destroyed by me.”

How do I get revenge? The answer… I have been for a long time. And all that is happening… It's just the beginning. Three days later, the private investigator sent me a text message. The tone this time was clearly different, carrying a rare urgency.

"Miss Lam, there is an important discovery. Snow White has been frequenting a place recently, perhaps you will be very interested."

I looked at the screen, my finger paused for a moment before answering.

"West of the city, a private clinic. She always goes at night, staying a few hours each time before leaving."

Private clinic, even late at night. I squinted my eyes slightly. Someone like Snow White, who had never heard of having any health problems before, why did she have to secretly go there so many times?

“Continue to monitor.” I texted back, “I want to know what she was doing there.”

That evening, I drove myself to the west side of the city. The clinic is located in such a remote location that it is almost isolated from everything around it. The outside looks so old and normal that there's nothing noteworthy, but just a closer look will reveal an extremely tight security system. It is almost impossible for strangers to enter. I parked my car a little distance away and patiently observed. At exactly eleven o'clock at night, a black car slowly stopped in front of the door. The car door opens. Snow White walked down. She wore a long black coat, mask, and hat, covering almost her entire face. But with that gait and temperament, I can't be wrong. She quickly walked inside. The door immediately closed. I took out my phone and called the detective.

"Look up all information about this clinic. From legal entities, doctors, nurses, to all related people."

Half an hour later, the report was sent. Just looking at it once made my heart cold. The person in the legal name of the clinic is an unfamiliar name, but after comparison, I discovered that this person has a close relationship with General Director Ly - Co Mac Han's business partner. What sent more chills down my spine was… The main doctor of this clinic. It was the person who directly operated on me three years ago. Memories are torn apart. Three years ago, I was hospitalized for a month. That surgery almost took my life. At that time, they concluded that it was a medical accident. But I never believed it. Now, I understand. That's not a accident. It was a pre-arranged plan.

“He wants to kill me…”

I tightened my grip on the phone, my voice trembling slightly but my eyes were terrifyingly cold.

“Since three years ago… he started.”

I took a deep breath, forcing myself to calm down.

“No, this is not evidence of a stroke.”

“This is evidence… of an attempted murder.”

I Looking towards the clinic, his eyes gradually became cold.

“Snow White coming here is definitely not a coincidence.”

That night, I immediately arranged for people to be able to get inside. The next morning, the detailed report arrived. That doctor's name is Tran Vi. It was he who wielded the surgical knife that year. But what sent chills down my spine was that... Not long after my surgery, he suddenly resigned from the hospital, then opened this private clinic. Just one month after quitting his job, his account received a huge sum of money. Remittance person. It's Co Mac Han. I stood silently in front of the window, looking out into the distance. All the pieces gradually fit together.

“So that's it…”

“The surgery that year was arranged by me.”

"And Tran Vi... is an accomplice."

I smiled softly, the smile didn't bring any warmth.

“Co Mac Han, do you think what you did left no trace?”

“Unfortunately…”

“The people who helped you… will in turn become witnesses against you.”

I immediately called lawyer Truong.

"Prepare lawsuit documents. Crime: medical malpractice and attempted murder."

Pausing for a moment, I added, my voice slow but full of pressure.

"And help me contact Tran Vi. I want to meet him."

That night, I returned to the clinic. This time, I didn't stand outside and watch anymore. I walked in directly. The inside is so simple it's cold. In some rooms, the pale white light makes the space even more empty. I found Tran Vi's office, knocked on the door and entered. He is looking at documents. He raised his head and saw me, his face immediately turned pale.

“Miss…Miss Lam?”

His voice trembled.

“You… why did you come here?”

I didn't answer, just walked over, took a file from my bag and placed it in front of him.

“Doctor Tran, I want to talk to you about what happened three years ago.”

His face became even more unsightly, and he instinctively stood up.

“Miss Lam… I… I don't know what you're talking about…”

“Don't know?”

I laughed lightly.

“So tell me, three years ago, that surgery… how much money did you receive from Co Mac Han?”

As soon as he finished speaking, his face immediately turned white as paper.

“You… you… I…”

“You don't need to explain.”

I interrupted, my voice frighteningly calm.

“I just asked one question.”

“Do you want to be my witness?”

I looked straight into his eyes.

“There's only one chance.”

“As long as you come forward and prove that the surgery that year was arranged by Co Mac Han.”

The office fell silent. Tran Vi bowed his head, his hands shaking slightly. After a long while, he spoke softly.

“I… I agree.”

The voice carried regret and fear that could not be hidden.

"Miss Lam... I'm sorry. About that year... I really regret it."

I looked at him. First witness. First evidence. The assassination attempt three years ago. My revenge… Officially begins.
