Chapter 7 — Reclaim My Company

Comments run dizzyingly fast. Someone asked if she was the third person. Hua Man's eye sockets turned red again.

"When I registered my marriage with Hanh Chu, he said that the relationship between him and General Director Tham had ended a long time ago. General Director Tham has always used his career to tie him down. I am also a woman, I understand how painful it feels to be controlled by others."

I sit in the conference room. On the screen, a livestream is being broadcast. Outside counsel, the board secretary and the public relations person were all present. I asked the media manager:

"Are all screen recordings saved?"

"Saved."

Livestream continues. Hua Man took out a pregnancy check-up card.

"Recently my condition has been very bad. The doctor told me to rest and recuperate. But General Manager Tham's people are always following me, taking pictures of me, and threatening me. I honestly don't know how much longer I can hold out."

As soon as she said that, the comment section immediately exploded. Lam Dao was so angry that he blurted out and cursed:

"This morning it was clearly she who went to meet the media, but now she told our people to follow her!"

I picked up the glass of water and took a sip. The water had cooled a long time ago, lingering on the tip of the tongue, leaving a faint acrid taste. Trinh Nghien looked at me.

"It's time."

I nodded slightly. The person in charge of public relations immediately posted the first statement. Not a long article. There are only three parts of the document. The first part is the marriage registration information of Luc Hanh Chu and Hua Man, clearly stating the date. The second part is the invitation to the public engagement ceremony between me and Luc Hanh Chu, which took place after the day the two of them registered their marriage. The third part is the approval file in Hua Man's name applying for company dormitories, medical benefits and customer gift funds in the name of the General Director's Office. The caption has only one sentence. The company has officially launched an investigation into the suspected illegal use of company resources by related individuals. Five minutes later. The wind direction in the commentary area immediately reversed.

"You've registered your marriage but you're still engaged to General Manager Tham? Luc Hanh Chu is truly a fraud."

"Hua Man lives at the company's house, spends company money, and now she still has a pitiful fake livestream?"

"She said she didn't know General Manager Tham existed? On the engagement card, she was still a waitress."

Hua Man's livestream started jerking continuously. She stared at the phone screen. The expression on his face crumbled little by little. Someone keeps spamming asking:

"You attended General Manager Tham's engagement ceremony, right?"

She panicked.

"At that time I was just an employee. I really didn't know their relationship."

I turned to the public relations person.

"Post second statement."

The second statement was accompanied by a video. In the frame is the engagement ceremony. Hua Man wore a waiter's uniform, holding a tray and standing right in front of the door. When Luc Hanh Chu put the ring on me, she stood behind and applauded. The image is extremely clear. Hua Man's face is also clearly visible without missing a single detail. At that time, she had not yet had time to turn off the livestream. Seeing the video, her lips moved slightly. After a long time, I still couldn't say a word. The comment area immediately turned into a sign quote.

"Clapping enthusiastically."

"The child is innocent, but money is not innocent, nor are company resources innocent."

"Turning your fiancee into a control freak, do you still have any shame?"

Finally, Hua Man hastily turned off the livestream. In the meeting room, no one cheered. This is just the first shell. I looked at the screen, my fingertips lightly tapping on the table.

"How is Luc Hanh Chu's side?"

The board secretary replied:

"He has contacted several board members, but no one has expressed any reaction."

Trinh Nghien closed the file.

"He won't sit still and wait to die."

Just finished speaking. My phone rings. It's a strange number. I picked up the phone. On the other end of the phone, the shrill voice of Luc Hanh Chu's mother rang out.

"Tham A Hanh, you are truly a cruel woman! Man Man is carrying our Luc family's grandchild. If you force anything to happen to him, I will risk my life for you!"

I turned on the speakerphone. She continued to scold.

"If you're not blessed with children, don't be jealous of others who have children. Hanh Chu has been with you for so many years. Besides work, what else do you know how to do? Is there any man who can stand a woman like you?"

The expressions of everyone in the meeting room changed. My finger stopped. Some words sound stupid. But it can hit the oldest wounds. In the past, because I worked too intensely, my endocrine system was disturbed. The doctor advised me to rest for half a year.
