Chapter 5 — Only 8 Currency left in Card

After I finished speaking, I hung up. The sky outside the window was a blinding blue. Chu Thoi Uyen… How are you feeling now? Being deceived by the mother she trusted the most. Stabbed in the back by his most beloved younger brother. The feeling of being betrayed by everyone... Is it pleasant? But this is just the beginning. I sent the lawyer a text message.

“The second step can now begin.”

The lawyer replied almost immediately: The so-called second step… It's actually very simple. File a petition with the court to request property preservation before litigation. Freeze all assets in Chu Thoi Uyen's name. Of course... Now there's almost no money left under his name. But that petition… More like a public statement. Claiming that Chu Thoi Uyen... Due to financial debt problems... Was taken to court by his own wife. I want everyone to see. Chu Thoi Uyen — How flashy the outside is... How rotten is the inside. The drama between Chu Thoi Uyen and his younger brother quickly ended. The police are here. The person who called the police was that "good sister-in-law". Maybe she was really scared. Chu Thoi Uyen was taken to the station. With the crime of intentionally causing injury and destroying property. From the message the lawyer sent, I saw a photo of his pathetic appearance. White shirt covered in blood. Hair is messy. His eyes completely lost their spirit. Just like a stray dog whose spine was broken. He must compensate Zhou Shiming 50,000 yuan. In addition, he was placed in administrative detention for fifteen days. Before, to him, it was just a number. And now... It's another mountain that I can't overcome in my entire life. Because he doesn't have money. His younger brother doesn't even have one. The other 1,800,000 yuan had long been spent by Chu Thoi Minh. Buy a watch. Donate for female streamers. My mother-in-law… The woman who always called herself a “veteran accountant”… Personally pushed her eldest son into a fire pit. In the detention camp, who else can Chu Thoi Uyen ask for help? Still in the intensive care unit. It is said that after learning that the two boys fought to the point of bleeding from the head, the condition became even worse. Surgery fee from 300,000 yuan... Increased to 500,000 yuan. And his younger brother? I was also deeply in debt and had long gone into hiding. How many of his “good brother” friends? When the tree falls, the monkey melts. In the end… The only person he thought of was still me. I guess, during those fifteen days he must have thought of all kinds of ways to contact me. But he can't. My phone number blocked him. WeChat was also wiped clean. Maybe he once called my company. But I told my assistant in advance. All strange calls from within the country... No need to answer the phone. Fifteen days. For someone who is cornered... Every second that passes is torture. I don't know how he survived all that time. I just know… Day sixteen. I received an unexpected call. It was my mother calling.

“Tem Tham… did you and Thoi Uyen quarrel?”

Mom's voice was very careful.

"Do not have."

“So why did it come to my house?”

My heart sank slightly.

“It's kneeling downstairs now!”

“Dressed in wrinkled clothes, with stubble and beard, he looked like a beggar.”

"He said he had something urgent to do and wanted to find his child, but he couldn't contact him. He was so impatient that he was about to cry."

“He also said his mother was seriously ill, I'm about to die, please save her."

“Tem Tham… what exactly happened?”

I was silent. Back and forth... I still didn't expect him to come to my parents. He knows very well. That's my only weakness.

“Mom, don't trust him.”

I took a deep breath.

“Mom told him to go away. I no longer have any relationship with him."

“But… but he's really kneeling downstairs!”

Mother's voice began to choke.

“All the neighbors around are watching!”

“Your father is so angry that his blood pressure is about to increase!”

“Them Tham, quickly think of a way to go! What is this!”

I tightened my grip on the phone.
