Chapter 10
Chapter 10 — My mother-in-law made a will to steal my property, leaving the whole family empty-handed
“I stand here today, not for people to judge me right or wrong.”
“I just want to tell some people something.”
“I, Hua Tinh, am not a soft persimmon.”
“Before, I was patient because I wanted to keep peace.”
“But what I get in return… is not respect, but increasingly excessive greed.”
“Then I don't need that so-called 'harmony' anymore.”
“My things, even if it's just a thread, are decided by me.”
“No one can enjoy it without doing it, taking away even a penny from me.”
“My house, my car, every penny I worked hard to earn…”
“It has nothing to do with the Ly family anymore.”
My words fell like a sledgehammer, not only hitting them but also shocking those who were watching. In the hall... there was an uncontrollable round of applause. Is my colleague. Their eyes looked at me, no longer with pity but with appreciation and support. At that moment, the vice president of the company passed by, a woman over fifty years old, with a strong temperament and sharp eyes. She heard the whole story, walked up to me, and gently patted my shoulder.
“Hua Tinh, great job.”
“No one of our company's employees is allowed to be bullied like that.”
Then, she turned to Chu Cam and Ly Hao, her eyes cold as knives. The voice is not loud but powerful.
“Take these two out.”
“From now on, our company does not welcome them.”
“If you continue to cause trouble, immediately report to the police.”
The security guards immediately stepped forward, each holding Chu Cam and Ly Hao. Only then did Chu Cam regain his composure and begin to struggle, cursing continuously.
"Hua Tinh, you slut! You will not have a good ending!"
"Let me go! I'm his mother-in-law, teaching him is a matter of course!"
Ly Hao was completely silent, letting himself be dragged away, his face pale and lifeless. He understood very well… everything was over. It's not just the loss of the marriage. But he also lost face in front of everyone. Watching them being dragged out of the company's door in disgrace, I felt in my heart... the resentment that had accumulated for three years was finally released. The deputy general turned back to look at me, his voice softening.
“Tieu Hua, the company will stand by your side in this matter.”
“If legal assistance is needed, the company can help.”
“Just keep working at peace, don't let these things affect you.”
I bowed deeply.
“Thank you, thank you everyone.”
I looked around and spoke with all sincerity. Everyone smiled and gave me a thumbs up. That moment... I knew, I had truly stepped out of the past.
“Miss Tinh, you are so cool today!”
“When you meet that kind of person, you have to do it to the fullest like me!”
In just one day, I became a "celebrity" of the whole company, not as a pitiful rebel, but as a woman who calmly fought back, tearing apart the so-called fake family with her own hands. I didn't feel embarrassed at all, on the contrary, I felt relieved to a degree I've never felt before. The sunlight filtered through the large glass door in the lobby, covering my body with a warm golden layer, like a prophecy. My future... will be just as bright. The video of Chu Cam and Ly Hao causing a ruckus at the company was pulled out by security in a disheveled appearance. It's unknown who filmed it and posted it on the internal forum. In just one day... spread throughout the company. Their family has completely become a laughing stock. Ly Hao has since disappeared from my life. No more harassing messages, no more annoying calls. I know… he's scared. Don't be afraid of me. It's about being afraid of the feeling of being stripped bare in the light, all the dirty things have no place to hide. As for me... I have absolutely no time to care about their feelings. My lawyer, lawyer Truong, worked extremely decisively. The next day when Chu Cam came to the company to cause trouble, a complete set of documents including a lawyer's letter and a divorce agreement were sent directly to Ly Hao. I didn't see their expressions when they received it, but I can imagine it. Definitely... very unique. Lawyer Truong called me and explained each term clearly. First, unconditional divorce. Second, the pre-marital assets, the house and the car in my name, are completely unrelated to Ly Hao. Third, pay for common property after marriage. This is the most important part.
