Chapter 8 — My Husband Had an Affair with His Secretary, I Recovered the Hundred Billion Empire I Created

He grabbed the car keys. Frantically rushed out of the office. Half an hour later. The car stopped suddenly in front of the villa where he and I used to live together. Luc Tham quickly opened the door and rushed in. He always assumed. Just like every time before. I will obediently stay home and wait for him. Wait for him to vent his anger. Then humbly ask for forgiveness. But this time... What awaited him was only coldness and emptiness. The locker room was empty. All clothes. Everything that belonged to me was gone. In the book room. The computer I used to use. Books I've read. Documents I have studied. There are also no traces left. Everything related to me in this house... Has been erased. So clean that it's like I never existed. Luc Tham stood in the middle of the large living room. First time. He felt real panic. It squeezed his heart. Making it almost impossible for him to breathe. The past seven years. He always thought this was his home. But this moment. He just realized. This place is strange and scary. He frantically took out his phone to call me. Time after time. But the response was just a cold, mechanical voice:

"The subscriber you have called is currently unreachable..."

He couldn't find me. He drove all over the city. Go to my parents' house. Go to restaurants we've visited. Go to my favorite bookstore. Even to the park where we used to date. But no. There is no trace of me anywhere. Luc Tham returned to the company exhausted. But what awaits him... Is an even more terrible disaster.

"General Luc!"

"It's not done!"

Technical director Ly Vi almost rolled in from outside the door. His face was as white as a dead person's. In his eyes there was only despair.

"System..."

"The system has completely crashed!"

Luc Tham stood up.

"Didn't you say it was fixed?!"

Ly Vi trembled so much that he couldn't speak.

"It's... it's using the patch in the anonymous email to fix..."

"But that patch was originally a trap!"

"A logic virus is installed inside!"

"Just now..."

“It has broken out in full force!”

"All test devices are running Illusion OS..."

"The motherboard is all burned out!"

"What did you say?!"

Luc Tham grabbed Ly Vi's collar. His eyes were bloodshot as if he wanted to eat human flesh.

"Motherboard fire?!"

Ly Vi almost burst into tears.

"This is no longer a software error."

"This is a destructive attack at the hardware level."

"We..."

"We're done."

"Phi Pham Khoa Technique is really finished."

Luc Tham let go. Staggered backwards. Then he fell down on the chair. He knows. Ly Vi did not lie. An operating system can burn hardware... Don't say sell it for money. Even if it's given away for free, no manufacturer would dare to use it. The project costs tens of billions of yuan. After just one night. Turn into a pile of worthless electronic waste. Not only that. It also entails countless lawsuits demanding compensation. Phi Pham Khoa Tech... Was sentenced to death. Luc Tham muttered that name. Suddenly. He remembered the code name that Ly Vi once mentioned. Like a crazy person. He rushed to the computer. Grab the mouse. Open that anonymous mailbox. With trembling hands, he typed a message: 【Who are you?】 【What is your relationship with Diep Khinh Khinh?】 The message was just sent. Opponent sets up immediately answer. So fast that it seemed like it was always waiting. No explanation. There aren't any words. There is only one photo. It's Diep Khinh Khinh's ID photo. Below the photo. There is a short text. 【I am Diep Khinh Khinh.】 That moment. Luc Tham felt like a bomb exploded in his mind. Everything is completely empty. All the clues. All doubtful. All the truth. Finally put it together into a complete picture. Contempt Contempt... It turns out he is worshiped as a god by the entire technology world. It turned out to be a mysterious minister that even he had to look up to. It was the wife he despised. Betrayed by him. Thrown away by him. His company. His talent. His status. His property. Everything was just something she conveniently gave. As for him... He's the biggest joke. A mouthful of fresh blood spurted straight out. Splattered all over the cold computer screen. Luc Tham's eyes were dark. Consciousness quickly sank into darkness. His body collapsed to the ground. Completely unconscious.
