Chapter 20 — Reclaiming the Future

“The school will not handle students based on one-sided rumors.” "Nam Chi, rest assured and prepare your wish." I feel a little more stable inside. But it doesn't stop there. At noon, we went to the wedding house to collect the house. Management was waiting downstairs. My brother also came. He stayed up all night, his beard was thin, and his whole body seemed to have aged several years. Seeing me, he spoke in a low voice. “Sister, I'm sorry.” I didn't reply. An apology is too light. So light that it couldn't weigh the two years he tried to push on me. The elevator door opened, and in front of the wedding house was a large red piece of paper. Above were some crooked letters written above. "If a woman is living there, anyone who touches it is an immoral person." Next to it there is also a phone holder. Ha Man stood in the door, her face pale but she turned on the live broadcast. As soon as she saw us, she immediately cried. “Everyone look.” "I was pregnant for six months, and my husband's family kicked me out of the house because they wanted my brother-in-law to go to college." “They have money to send their daughter to college but refuse to give me and the child a way to live.” On-screen comments run extremely fast. Mother stood outside the door, her expression calm. She did not rush in. She just held up a piece of paper in front of the camera. “This is a certificate of home ownership.” “The landlord is me.” She held up the second sheet again. “This is a house loan agreement.” “She was not evicted from her home, but the rental period ended and she violated the agreement.” Ha Man's face changed. She was about to turn off the live stream, but someone started asking questions. Mom looked at the camera and said every word. “In addition, last night she used the story of breaking the law to intimidate my daughter into leaving school.” “The record of forging my daughter's signature has been kept.” “She herself still has a loan of sixteen thousand unpaid.” “If necessary, I can continue to make it public.” Ha Man screamed and rushed forward to snatch the phone. During the chaos, her bag fell to the ground. A stack of papers flew out. The top sheet is the transfer history between her and Mr. Tran. The brother bent down and picked it up. With just one look, his face was completely pale. 21 The livestream was opened by Ha Man himself. But the first person to collapse was also herself. She cried and tried to turn off the phone, frantically pressing the buttons, but instead pointed the lens at the transfer history on the ground. The comments that were scolding us on the screen started changing line by line. Someone asked if the house belonged to her. Someone asked what the 160,000 loan was. Someone asked why my husband's sister-in-law ranked third in the province and still had to go to a factory. Ha Man looked at the comments, her face slowly turning gray. Her mother rushed forward to block the lens, still screaming. “Don't turn anymore.” “Don't watch anymore.” But it's late. They wanted to use public opinion to pressure me, and in the end they presented themselves on the table. Mom told the management staff to take pictures and make a record. Every room, every piece of furniture, every damaged area is recorded. Ha Man sat on the sofa, crying until her voice was hoarse. But this time no one continued to revolve around her. His brother stood at the door, holding the transfer history in his hand, as if he had finally woken up from a dream overnight. He told his mother. “Mom, I'm moving out of the house.” “I will pack my things.” “What you owe mom, you will slowly pay back later.” Mom looked at him for a long time. “First learn to stand up for yourself.” “Don't keep thinking about borrowing other people's bones to support yourself.” The brother bowed his head. “I know.” Hearing that, Ha Man suddenly screamed at him. “Ly Khai, do you treat me like that?” “Have you forgotten how you begged me to stay before?” The brother closed his eyes. “I didn't forget.” “That's why you're so confused over and over again.” “But this time, I don't want to continue pushing my sister into the hole.” Ha Man was stunned. Perhaps she didn't expect that the person who was always easily influenced by her would one day say no. That afternoon, Ha Man was picked up by her parents. Before leaving, she still scolded us cold-bloodedly, scolded my mother for being cruel, saying I destroyed her marriage. I did not respond. Because I know what really destroyed her was never me. It's her own greed and lies. Phew

Mr. Van received an agreement to repay the debt. Lawyer La archives all documents. Mom took back the house key and immediately contacted a locksmith to change the lock. The moment the door closed, the red letters of joy were still stuck on the wall. But I just felt sarcastic. A marriage almost swallowed my future. Luckily my mother pulled me out of that net. Dad moved out on Tuesday. When leaving, he carried two old luggage bags and stood at the door looking at me for a long time. “Nam Chi.” “Dad was so nervous that day that he was confused.” I looked at him. "Dad, don't be so confused." “I just thought you would give in.” His face immediately turned white. I don't say anything more. There are fathers who can't just apologize once and become high mountains again. He once personally pushed me to the cliff. I don't need to stand still and wait for him to regret it. After that, her mother officially broke up with him and redistributed her assets. Whoever belongs to everything is clearly written in each item. At first he made a fuss.
