Chapter 16 — My mother-in-law made a will to steal my property, leaving the whole family empty-handed

He will be monitored, suspected, excluded from all opportunities for advancement. Isolated, alienated, pulled into a spiral of doubt and pressure. His life... will be a hundred times more difficult than it is now. And most importantly... He will no longer have any strength to interfere with my life anymore. Chu Cam wanted to extort money from me to fill the gambling hole. I will make her... pull down her last support with her own hands. That's called... pulling firewood from the bottom of the pot. My anonymous letter… was like a guided bomb. Exploded right in Ly Hao's world when he was unaware. Things spread faster than I expected. The very next day, he was called up to "talk". Heads of the department and internal inspection department appeared together. I couldn't hear that conversation. But I know… it was definitely a party full of doubt and pressure. They won't fire him right away. Because there is no specific evidence. But as I calculated... The seed of "risk" was planted deep in their heads. An employee was asked for debt to the point of being sprayed with paint. A person can at any time... take risks for money. No company dares to assign important work to that type of person. In just one week, the transfer decision was issued. Ly Hao was transferred from his professional position to the logistics department. The only work left is to distribute documents and manage warehouses. Salaries did not decrease... but all bonuses and advancement opportunities were cut off. He was pushed to the edge. The way his colleagues looked at him... also changed. From being respected "Mr. Hao" to being someone that everyone avoids. No one to eat with, no one to talk to. Everyone kept their distance. He becomes an isolated island in the middle of the company. The collapse at work… is just the beginning. Next... is the total collapse of life. The debt collection phone calls became more and more frequent, their tone changed from threatening to aggressive, even hinting that the next time what was thrown at the door would no longer be paint. Chu Cam was so scared that he couldn't eat or sleep. He hid in the cramped rented room all day, not daring to step outside. Her only hope... was only Ly Hao left. Every day she forced him to think of ways to make money, screaming and crying, as if everything was his fault.

“Aren't you working? Where's your salary?”

“Go borrow from your friends, didn't you say before that our relationship was very good?”

“Do you really want to see me being dealt with? I'm your real mother!”

She pushed all responsibility onto him, as if the person gambling, borrowing money... was never her. During the day, Ly Hao was looked down upon at the company, but at night, he was constantly pressured by his mother. The rope was stretched to its limit... and finally broke. On a heavy rainy night, when Chu Cam had a seizure again because of a debt collection call... Ly Hao exploded. Eyes red like a cornered animal, he roared.

"That's enough! Shut your mouth for me!"

The first time… he spoke to his mother in that voice. Chu Cam was stunned.

“You… you dare to yell at me?”

“What if I yell!”

His voice rang out louder than the thunder outside.

“This house… was destroyed by you!”

“If it weren't for that damn will, would Hua Tinh divorce me?”

“If it weren't for you causing trouble all the time, would we be in this situation?”

“Now you still have to borrow money at high interest rates… do you want to force the whole family to die to be satisfied?”

All resentment and anger Anger and helplessness for many years... poured out at once. Chu Cam was shouted at until he turned white and his lips trembled.

"I... didn't I do that for my child, for Ly Vy?"

Ly Hao laughed like crazy.

“Because of me, you gave my wife's garage to your daughter?”

“Because of me, you forced my wife to leave, leaving me with a ton of debt?”

“Because of me, you went gambling, and now we're about to have no place to live?”

“You destroyed my marriage, destroyed my career, destroyed my whole life!”

“You are just a selfish, greedy and crazy person!”
