Chapter 18 — Not married yet, asked me to have children, I turned around and married the CEO

Updated 10/08/2026 4 min read

This feeling of being "robbed"... was enough to make her choke until she couldn't breathe. Before getting in the car, she finally couldn't hold it in anymore. She walked closer to me, lowering her voice so only the two of us could hear.

“Hua Niem, don't get complacent too early.”

“A bracelet… doesn't say anything.”

“The Luc family is not a place where you just need to know how to play a few songs to be able to stand.”

"There is no fundamental love between you and Canh Tham, this marriage... will end sooner or later."

“I will wait for the day you are kicked out of the Luc family.”

I looked at her face that had become distorted due to jealousy, but inside I felt strangely calm. I smiled slightly, my tone gentle but firm.

“Lady Luc, thank you for your reminder.”

"But whether or not Canh Tham and I have feelings, how long can we go... I'm afraid you don't need to worry."

“If you have such free time, you should take care of yourself a little more.”

“At this age and still angry all the time... it's easy to get old quickly.”

Having finished speaking, I didn't bother to look at her face that was trembling with anger anymore. Just gently turn around, walk, move slowly and leisurely, then sit in the car as if you just finished a conversation not worth remembering. Through the rearview mirror, I saw Luc Canh Tham walking next to Tan Uyen Nhu. He bent down and said something very softly. Just one sentence. Her face immediately turned white, as if someone had drained her blood. The car quietly left the Luc family's old house. The space in the car is so quiet that you can clearly hear the gentle sound of the engine. Luc Canh Tham and I both said nothing. But amidst that silence... something is silently changing. A very vague feeling. It's very difficult to name. I tilted my head slightly, secretly looking at him. He was concentrating on driving, the angle of his face was as sharp and perfect as if it had been sculpted. Sunlight passes through the glass door, falling on long eyelashes, creating a light layer of shadow. I suddenly felt curious. After all… what did you say to your mother just now? A woman who is always strong and arrogant like Tan Uyen Nhu... can suddenly change her appearance like that. It seemed like he could feel my gaze. He suddenly turned his head and glanced at me. I was startled, immediately turned away, pretending to look intently out the window.

“No…nothing.”

“It's just that... the scenery today is so beautiful.”

He smiled softly. The laughter was low and magnetic, like a feather gently sweeping across my heart, making me numb to the tips of my fingers. Both itchy... and soft. Return to Van Dinh Cong Quan. Life seems to be returning to its usual peaceful trajectory. But I know very well... there are things that have quietly changed. The time he comes home is getting earlier and earlier. He no longer locks himself in his study room all day. Occasionally, he will sit in the living room watching financial news. As for me, when I'm learning etiquette or flower arranging... His eyes will accidentally stop on me. Even if only for a few very short seconds. But I still feel it. That feeling was like... Being quietly observed by a sleeping predator. Makes me both stressed... and a little happy at the same time, it's hard to put into words. The number of times we talk also increases. Although most of them are just very ordinary stories. But for me… It's been a huge step forward. I even started to hope waiting... for the moment every night when he returns. But that peace... didn't last long. That afternoon, I was studying French. The phone suddenly vibrated violently. It's To Tinh - my best friend. Her voice was urgent to the point of almost panicking.

"Niem Niem! Quickly go to Weibo to see hot search!"

“Something big happened!”

My heart sank. An extremely bad premonition arose. I turned off the phone and immediately opened Weibo. As soon as I saw the headline that topped the hot search chart... My head exploded.

“Proud bride Hua Niem forced her ex-boyfriend to death so she could marry into a rich family.”

I clicked. A long article appeared before my eyes. In it, I was portrayed as a scheming woman, greedy for money, wanting to enter the wealthy family without stopping at all tricks. Say that Chu Hao and I love each other deeply and are about to get married. But because I was clinging to an "old man with a lot of money" I immediately threw him away. Even relying on the power of the "golden master", destroying Chu Hao's work, causing him to fall into a dead end. The article is written extremely skillfully. Every detail is real. Attached are secretly taken photos. One photo is me swiping a black card to buy things in a shopping mall. One photo of me getting out of the luxury car. One photo shows Lam Phi Phi falling down and me turning away to leave. Images are cropped and distorted. Combined with malicious words. In just a short time... Has blown up the entire social network. The comments section almost turned into a dump.
