Chapter 2 — New Year's Eve Turns the Table

Updated 10/08/2026 5 min read

I have withdrawn my resignation. Ms. Cam was so happy that she couldn't stand it. I was the person with the highest sales in the company. She couldn't bear to let me quit my job. She gave me advice about the harmful effects of being a full-time housewife. But at that time, I was overwhelmed by the happiness of the child in my belly. Plus Lam Sam's constant brainwashing. I even felt like I was the happiest woman in the world. "I'm hungry, go cook me a bowl of noodles!" He sat down at the dining table and opened the laptop. "Do you have no hands? Don't know how to cook for yourself?" Lam Sam was stunned and closed the computer: "Are you still making a fool of yourself over the New Year's Eve thing? Mien Mien wasn't even angry, you turned the table directly. Even now you still think you're right!" I thought you seriously reflected on yourself over the past week! Looks like I really overestimated you! Lam Sam said contemptuously: "It seems the punishment is not enough! This month I will stay in the school dormitory. When you realize your mistake, I will return!" "Co Duong, remember carefully. Now you have no job, you are still pregnant! You are no longer a pampered big lady!" Ms. Cam and I had almost finished discussing work. I put down the phone. I said: "Don't go!" Lam Sam curled his lips and smiled coldly: "It's too late to want to keep you here now!" "Idiot! Didn't you see the divorce agreement on the table? Sign quickly!" Lam Sam's body bending down to put on his shoes immediately stiffened. He bent over, raised his head, and looked at me almost in disbelief. "Idiot! I told you to sign a divorce agreement! Don't you understand human language?" Sometimes I'm a bit harsh, and I often swear, but mostly it's towards outsiders. This is the first time I've said that to Lam Sam. 5 The first time Lam Sam and I met started with the scene of me standing in the middle of the street cursing people like a sharp woman. At that time, Lam Sam was still in graduate school and was a naive and shy guy. He found a bag of money in the alley behind the school. It was truly a very large bag, with two hundred thousand yuan inside. He kept holding his bag of money and standing at the door waiting for someone to lose it. Then the person who lost money came. Unable to say a word of thanks, that person said there were three hundred thousand yuan inside, and asked Lam Sam to hand over the stolen money. Lam Sam was so angry that his face turned red. He said he had waited three hours and didn't even eat lunch, just because he was afraid that the person who lost the money wouldn't find him and would be impatient. He is just a bookworm from a small town who knows nothing other than studying. Encountering such a thing, he was so flustered that he was about to cry. At that time, I often passed by. After understanding the story, I directly snatched the money bag from the deceased's lap and put it back into Lam Sam's hand. The person who lost money immediately shouted loudly: "This girl, why are you still stealing my money?" "There are two hundred thousand yuan here. You said you lost three hundred thousand, right?" "Yes! I lost three hundred thousand! The remaining one hundred thousand was definitely taken by him!" Lam Sam blushed and shouted: "I didn't have it! I didn't take it!" The person who lost money also shouted: "You said you didn't take it, you didn't take it? Where's the evidence? Everyone saw there was no camera here, he proved it." How can I get it?" I said: "I just lost two hundred thousand yuan. It seems like this money is mine. You don't know where it is, you go find it." The person who lost the money rolled his eyes: "Fuck you, how can you lie like that?" "You idiot! How can you prove that what I said is a lie?

"You said you lost three hundred thousand, I said I lost two hundred thousand! There's just two hundred thousand in here. If it's not mine, then maybe it's yours?" "Is there a camera? No, what are you standing here barking at? Even when I go to the police station, I will say that this money is mine!" The person who lost money grabbed the bag of money, smiled and walked away, saying that he had to admit his bad luck. Lam Sam and I knew each other like that. We studied at the same university. I was in the fourth year, he was in the second year of graduate school. His first impression of me was that of a spoiled, spoiled shrewd girl who did anything without hesitation because she always seemed to have a family. From then on, he started pursuing me very intensely. He said he liked my personality, didn't care about my image, but resolutely protected his own interests. But on New Year's Eve, he said to Kieu Mien Mien: "Everyone in the neighborhood knows that Co Dang is a tough woman that is difficult to deal with."6 I said signing the divorce agreement. Lam Sam took a while to react, then laughed coldly: “In my belly, I still have your child. That's a child who worked hard to prepare for a year to get. Are you willing to let him be born without a father?”
