Chapter 8
Chapter 8 — On the wedding night, my husband took his blind assistant to the wedding bed. I directly canceled the engagement
On Du immediately stood up.
“I'm going to destroy the Tham family!”
Khuong Hoa stuffed the dumpling into his mouth.
“Let's eat and then go.”
“Don't go to jail hungry.”
I took her phone. The illustration in the article is the scene of Lam Man in a wheelchair being pushed to the hospital by Tham Nghien. The title is written extremely cleverly:
"A life-saving benefactor is humiliated by a wealthy bride."
The comments section below almost exploded.
“The daughter of the Wen family is truly cruel.”
"Lam Man lost her eyes in order to save General Manager Tham, but she still refused to let go."
“It's best for women like that not to get married.”
Khuong Hoa looked at me worriedly.
“Duong Duong, let me find someone to delete the post.”
I shook my head.
"No need."
My father couldn't bear it.
“How can you not delete it?”
“How will I still be alive in the future?”
I turned to ask Khuong Hoa:
“What evidence did the Tham family uncover?”
“There are only Lam Man's medical records and a few photos of her kneeling under the stage.”
“They chose the shooting angle very cleverly.”
“Anyone looking at it would think you were standing on stage forcing her to kneel.”
I returned the phone to her.
“Just let things continue to ferment.”
On Du was bewildered.
“Are... are you stupid?”
“They are cursing you!”
I calmly replied:
“The more you curse…”
“When the truth comes out, they will be even more hurt.”
At that moment, the doorbell rang again. This time, the person who came was Tham Nghien's lawyer. He was wearing a neat suit. As soon as he walked in, he immediately placed a file on the tea table, not even bothering to change his slippers.
“General Manager Tham asked me to convey the message.”
“As long as you sign this statement, admit that what happened last night was just a misunderstanding, and publicly apologize to Ms. Lam…”
“The Tham family will continue to maintain orders for the Wen family's factory for three months.”
My father's face immediately turned white. Ong Du tried to rush forward and grab the documents, but I raised my hand to stop him. I looked at the lawyer.
“What if I don't sign?”
He pushed up his glasses.
“General Manager Tham said…”
“The Wen family's workshop won't last more than seven days.”
Khuong Hoa smiled coldly.
“Threatening others but also counting down the time.”
“There is indeed education.”
The lawyer completely ignored her.
“You should understand better than anyone.”
“In Giang Thanh, no one will confront the Tham family for you.”
“The only path you can choose now…”
“It ends everything with dignity.”
I opened the file. The first line clearly states: Out of unreasonable jealousy, I deliberately misunderstood Lam Man, seriously damaging the reputation of the Tham family and her. I pointed my finger at the four words "because of unreasonable jealousy", looking up at the lawyer.
“These four words…”
“Who wrote it?”
The lawyer calmly replied:
“It has been reviewed and confirmed by General Director Tham himself.”
I closed the file.
“Then go talk to Tham Nghien.”
“His writing is not bad either.”
“Even a will... I can probably write it myself.”
The lawyer's expression immediately changed.
“Miss On, please consider your words.”
I picked up the agreement. I tore it in half. The lawyer said coldly:
“Then you will regret it.”
At that moment, a calm voice rang out outside the door:
“Whether she regrets it or not... it's not your turn to decide yet.”
Uncle Tran stood at the door. Behind him were two people carrying several cardboard boxes. The lawyer frowned.
“You are Who?"
Uncle Tran took a business card and handed it over.
“I came to give Ms. On things.”
The lawyer just glanced at the business card. However, his face immediately changed. He quickly returned the business card, his tone was no longer as tough as before.
“Miss On, please excuse me.”
On Du was stunned.
“Why is he suddenly so afraid?”
Uncle Tran did not answer. He just signaled for the two to put down the boxes. I opened a box. Inside are a few old accounting books and a small jade button. Khuong Hoa came over curiously.
“What is this?”
I closed the lid of the box.
“A key.”
My father looked at the jade button and his face gradually changed.
“Duong Duong...”
“Isn't this your grandmother's thing?”
I nodded slightly. My father lowered his voice.
“But your grandmother… isn't it…”
“She's still alive.”
I calmly replied.
“It's just that there were some things that year... I never told dad.”
In the afternoon, the Tham family held a press conference. At first I didn't plan to come. But it was Tham Nghien who texted me. Not sorry. It's intimidation. He said... If I hadn't appeared, he would have publicly announced to the media that the Wen family was taking advantage of the marriage contract to usurp the Tham family's resources. At the same time, the entire debt situation of my father's factory was announced to all press agencies. I changed into a black dress. Come with Khuong Hoa. The press conference was held in the hall on the first floor of Tham Thi Group. Lam Man sits in a wheelchair. Both eyes were covered with gauze. His face was as white as a sheet of paper. Tham Nghien stood next to her. Looks like a loyal protector. Tham's mother sat in the front row. As soon as she saw me walk in, she smiled coldly.
“You still know.”
“It seems that we are not stupid enough to be hopeless.”
I don't bother to answer. Tham Nghien walked over and gave me a piece of paper.
“Read along with this content.”
"After reading it, I won't pursue anything else about last night."
I glanced over. The content is even more harsh than the explanation in the morning. Not just apologizing. I have to admit that I've been jealous of Lam Man for a long time. Before getting married, he used insulting words against her many times. Khuong Hoa was so angry that he tried to tear the paper to pieces. I raised my hand to stop him. Tham Nghien lowered his voice:
“Wen Tang.”
“This is my last chance.”
I looked at him.
“Are you that determined to protect her?”
Tham Nghien's eyes fell on Lam Man.
“Because of you, she lost her light.”
“I can't let her continue to be hurt by you.”
I nodded slightly. Tham Nghien thought I agreed.
