Chapter 18 — Tell My Husband's Phone Number In LV, I End My Eight-Year Marriage

I know... From that moment... My life has officially turned a completely new page. That afternoon... Lam My Lan finally called my mother's phone. She is no longer the proud mother-in-law who always stands high and looks down. The voice on the phone was hoarse and heavy with fatigue.

“Bao Tham Nguyet answered the phone.”

My mother turned on the speakerphone. Coldly replied:

“If you have anything, just say it.”

The other end of the line was silent for a long time. A moment later... Lam My Lan's voice slowly rang out.

“Tham Nguyet…”

“Looks like you're good.”

“In the end, what do you want to withdraw the lawsuit…”

“And destroy all of that?”

I took the phone. Calmly replied:

“We'll meet in court.”

Having finished speaking... I immediately hung up. Destroy evidence? I want to see them with my own eyes... Step by step... Collapse right on stage... That I built with my own hands. Half a year later. I sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window in my new apartment, slowly sipping a cup of hand-brewed coffee. Outside is the early summer sunlight. But no longer harsh. The divorce case that shocked the whole city... Finally ended last month. There weren't any surprises. Faced with a series of irrefutable evidence... Chu Yen's team of lawyers has almost no ability to refute. Finally, the court declared... Two-thirds of the couple's common property belongs to me. At the same time... Chu Yen also had to compensate me a very large amount of money for mental damage. Lam My Lan's words that year...

"I will make you leave empty-handed."

Has become the biggest joke. I don't take the house. Also don't take the Chu family's car. I just take the money. The coins inherently belong to me. Robbed by him. I took it back myself. The day I received the court verdict... I met Chu Yen and Lam My Lan for the last time in front of the court gate. Chu Yen is skinny. The whole person was visibly emaciated. His eyes were gloomy and gray. There is no longer any arrogant demeanor from the past. He looked at me. Lips moved slightly. Maybe want to say something. But in the end... Still couldn't say a word. As for Lam My Lan... In just half a year, she felt like she had aged ten years. Half-white hair. His face was full of haggardness. With resentment that cannot be hidden. She stared at me. That look... As if wanting to destroy me little by little. I didn't pay any attention. Just calmly walked by. It's like passing by two strangers who are no longer related. Their outcome is what I heard from the press and friends. Chu Yen's company... Because it lost its reputation, it was completely oppressed by Vuong Thi Group... In the end, it could not stand. Officially declared bankruptcy. All assets in his name were used to repay the debt. After just one night... From the top, I fell straight to the bottom. As for those two women... Each of them revealed their true nature. Right after Chu Yen lost power... To Tinh immediately swept away everything she could take away and disappeared without a trace. I heard... Someone met her in another city. Wear cheap office clothes. Standing in an ordinary office building. Being scolded by superiors, I couldn't hold my head up. As for the woman who gave birth to Chu Yen's son... Then take the child and leave. Bring all the real estate that has been transferred in advance. Completely cut off all ties with him. She is very smart. Right from the start... What she needs has never been false love. It's a practical guarantee. In her eyes... Chu Yen is nothing more than a tool to provide blood and money. Now that tool has collapsed. Of course, she has no reason to look back. In the end... Chu Yen lost everything. No relatives left. No more friends. There's nothing left in hand. I used the money I was given... Bought a not big but cozy apartment right in the city center. The rest... I opened my own small studio. Do work you truly love. Life... A few days ago, while cleaning out my wardrobe... I accidentally saw the red dress from that year. The dress I used to wear as a battle outfit to enter the battle for revenge. I picked it up. Under the light... The red color is still as bright as blood. Then calmly fold back. Place in the donation box. Completed my mission. Don't need it anymore. The phone suddenly rang. It's a video call from a close friend.

“Nguyet Nguyet!”

“What are you doing?”

“Let's go out for a few drinks tonight!”

“I just met a super handsome fitness trainer.”

“Let me introduce you!”

Looking at her excited appearance on the screen... I burst out laughing.

"Okay."

I brought a cup of coffee. Step out onto the balcony. Warm sunlight gently covers you. In the flower garden below, climbing rose bushes are blooming brightly. I took a deep breath. In the air... Only the smell of grass and trees remains. And the smell of freedom. Everything in the past... It's all over. Who is Chu Yen? It seems... Even his face... I'm about to forget it. My future... Has nothing to do with him anymore. My life. It's only just begun.
