Chapter 3 — My Lover and Best Friend Betrayed Me Together

He said hello to me, then went into the bedroom, showered and changed clothes. A moment later, it was his elegant appearance again. I staggered to my feet and pulled him back:

“I have something to say.”

“Say it, three minutes.”

When he spoke, he bowed his head, his eyes glued to the phone, and kept typing. I stared blankly at him typing out:

“Duong Duong, I'll be at your house later, wait for me.”

Looking at the last two words, my chest felt like it was on fire. My throat felt like it was on fire, I couldn't ask anything.

"Meng Gia! You're about to be late!"

Tan Tu Viet looked at his watch, his eyes flashing with impatience. He was willing to spend sixty minutes on the road, from the south of the city to the north of the city to take Nguyen Duong to work. But the time he spent with me was stingy, only three minutes. I don't remember clearly anymore. Obviously working at the same law firm. How long has it been since you drove me home from work? Each time it is:

“Gia Gia, you and Duong Duong still have to arrange the case, let's go first, you take the subway.”

Maybe I'm really a coward. From initial anger, to confusion in the middle, to now becoming a habit. But I won't be a coward forever. I took a deep breath, smiled and said:

“Let's break up.”

Tin Tu Viet's typing hand stiffened, and he finally raised his head.

“What did you say?”

I looked at him, my eyes not avoiding:

“Farewell.”

“Why? There must at least be a reason?”

He grabbed me, his hand unconsciously used force, almost wanting to break my wrist. I endured the pain, smiled and said:

“We've already slept in the same room, so if we break up, isn't it just perfect for the two of us?”

Tan Tu Viet appeared to be awakened, but soon, a smoldering anger flashed in his eyes:

"Manh Gia! Nguyen Duong is your best friend, how can you use such dirty thoughts to talk about her?"

Dirty? We loved each other for eight years, and I left my hometown because of him. I haven't been able to eat one meal of my parents' homemade food for a year. In return is just this review.

"Last night, Duong Duong and I had a breakthrough in the case. We were so happy that we drank a lot. Finally, we opened a standard two-bed room to deal with it for one night. Believe it or not, we have nothing."

After speaking, he pushed me away, took the car keys, and changed his shoes. When he reached the big door, he suddenly stopped. Turned his head to look at me, his voice softened:

"That sentence, I pretend I didn't hear it. Think carefully."

But I didn't have time to think for too long. Tan Tu Viet had been gone for less than ten minutes when I received an urgent phone call from the human resources department to the law firm. As soon as I entered the door, Tieu My, her face pale, pulled me into the corner.

“Something happened, it's a big deal!”

"The source documents of Minh Chinh Group's case were leaked by no one. This is a major core customer of our company. The big boss got angry and almost smashed the whole office!"

“You should be careful, HR might not be looking for you because of this.”

I nodded and went straight to the human resources department. Seeing me, the director awkwardly shook his head:

"Manh Gia, a senior in the company suspects that you have revealed the case documents of Minh Chinh Group. Because that day the people who welcomed them were lawyer Tan, lawyer Nguyen and you."

My heart felt like it had been hit hard by a heavy hammer.

“I don't have it.”

“If you don't believe me, you can check the conference room camera. Then I'll just help responsible for distributing basic documents, sitting in the farthest corner of the meeting table, not even hearing the content, how can you reveal the secret?

After that, I looked at the director:

“You know, I'm the one about to leave, I won't harm myself before leaving like that.”

The director sighed:

“Gia Gia, I know what kind of person you are. But this time it's a complaint by real name."
\deer?"

I couldn't sit still anymore, I stood up excitedly. A look of pity appeared in the director's eyes:

“My good friend, Nguyen Duong.”
