Chapter 2 — Ten Slaps for One Million. But the Price You Have to Pay is a Lifetime of Regret.

Co Than always thought that my mother's family was just a small bankrupt family, and I was the one who climbed high to marry him. He had no idea. The To family is the largest controlling shareholder behind Co Thi Group. That year, it was my father who saw Co Than's ability. Also because I wanted to indulge my stupid infatuation. He personally promoted him to the position of general director. The only condition is that he must marry me. And you must treat me well. Because of his pitiful little self-esteem. Committed to coordinating the performance of that play for three years. Be willing to live with him in this small villa. Instead of returning to the To family's manor. Committed to being a normal employee in his company. Quietly watching him play emotional games with one woman after another. I used to think that. I just need to sacrifice enough. Be patient long enough. Then one day you will get some sincerity from him. But I was wrong. So wrong that there's nothing left to say. I still brought my swollen face to work as usual at the company. The eyes of my colleagues looking at me were filled with pity. But he didn't hide his mockery at all. Lieu Y Y is even more proud. She stepped on her high heels and walked to my desk. Then "accidentally" spilled a hot cup of coffee onto a stack of documents.

“Oh, sorry To Tham.”

“I accidentally lost it.”

Mouth says sorry. But there was not a single trace of guilt on her face. That's the report I stayed up several nights in a row to complete. I raised my head. Looked coldly at her. Lieu Y Y burst out laughing. She bent down. Lower your voice so that only the two of us can hear.

“What if it's true?”

“Now you are like a dog next to President Co.”

“I can trample however I want.”

“If you know what to do, get out of the company.”

“If not, there will be a lot of things for you to bear later.”

I wasn't as angry as she expected. I also don't feel sorry for myself. I just calmly looked at her.

“Liu Y Y.”

“Have you ever thought?”

“If one day Co Than is nothing anymore.”

“So what will you do?”

Lieu Y Y seemed to have just heard a joke.

“Have you been slapped stupid?”

"The late President is nothing anymore?"

“Are you daydreaming?”

“I advise you to take care of yourself first.”

She wriggled her waist. Delighted to leave. I looked at her back. Take out your phone. Send your brother a message.

“Help me investigate Lieu Y Y.”

“I want all her weaknesses.”

Not long after. My brother called back.

“Permeate.”

“What are you going to do?”

“Someone like her.”

“You only need one sentence to make her disappear from city A.”

“There's no need for you to do it yourself.”

I smiled softly.

“I want to return it myself.”

“Little by little.”

“The humiliations you have endured.”

“Also Lieu Y Y.”

“And also Co Than.”

I want him to know. All of which he was always proud of. In my eyes. It's just a bubble. Just gently snap your fingers. Will disappear cleanly. I will make him pay the ultimate price. For arrogance. And his stupidity. Afternoon. Co Than called me into the office. Lieu Y Y was also present. She is sitting on Co Than's desk. Intimately feed him each piece of fruit. Just saw me walk in. Co Than frowned.

“Why is your face still swollen?”

“Didn't I tell you to apply medicine?”

That tone. It's like scolding a subordinate who doesn't know how to listen. I didn't reply. Co Than became even more impatient.

“I called you here for business purposes.”

He threw a file in front of me.

“The land west of the city.”

“Our company has been pursuing it for a long time.”

“But now the opponent blocked it.”

“The general manager on their side.”

“A famous old goat.”

“You go to dinner with him.”

“You know what you have to do.”

My heart. Completely sank to the bottom. Want me to go receive guests. Using my own body. In exchange for his benefits. Lieu Y Y stood next to her, adding fuel to the fire.

“This is a rare opportunity.”

“To Tham is so beautiful.”

“Surely General Manager Ma will like it very much.”

“It's time for the project to succeed.”

"Ms. To Tham will be the company's greatest hero."

I looked at Co Than. Ask him word by word.

“What if I refuse?”

Co Than's face immediately darkened.

“Don't be an elephant asking for a fairy.”

“This is the responsibility of an employee.”

“If even this can't be done.”

“Then get out of the company!”

I clasped the documents in my hand. Knuckles turned white from exertion. This is the man I have loved for five years. He hit me. Humiliate me. He even wanted to push me into another man's bed. My heart hurts so much that I can barely breathe. Right at that moment. Co Than's phone rang. He picked up the phone. His face immediately changed. From reverence. Surprising. Then it turned into panic. After hanging up. His eyes looking at me became extremely complicated.

“Is it your dad calling me?”
