In my heart, I laughed coldly. My brother took action faster than I thought. I deliberately looked surprised at him.

“What did he call you for?”

Co Than stared at me. As if trying to find something on my face.

“He said.”

“He is the largest shareholder of Co Thi Group.”

“He also said he would withdraw all investment capital.”

The surprise on my face became even clearer.

“No way.”

“Are you mistaken?”

“My family went bankrupt a long time ago.”

"Where did my father get the money to invest in Co Thi Group?"

My innocent yet surprised appearance. Obviously it made Co Than waver. Daughter of a bankrupt family. How can he be the richest shareholder of a corporation? He would rather believe this was a hoax call. Also don't want to believe that. The wife is always looked down upon by me. It is he who is in control of his destiny. Lieu Y Y also smiled and spoke up.

“It's definitely a scam.”

“What is To Tham's family situation like?”

“No one in the company knows.”

“Don't let these little tricks fool you.”

Co Than's expression softened a bit. He waved his hand angrily.

"Alright."

“You go out first.”

“Don't forget the party.”

I held the documents. Turn around and leave the office. In Co Than's heart. There was a seed called doubt that was sown. Now he still doesn't believe it. Because once you believe it. Which means he has to admit it. I was the one who was stupid from beginning to end. A man relied on his wife's family to climb to his current position. But turn back. Humiliating the benefactor's own daughter. An ungrateful person. His self-esteem. Don't let him admit it. He needed a bigger shock. A shock enough to destroy all arrogance. Same with his pride. And that shock. Soon. I will give it to him myself. I didn't go to that social party. I returned to the villa. Start packing your things. There's nothing worth cleaning up either. The past three years. I live in this house like a live-in maid. Co Than has never bought me even one decent gift. Everything I have. It's all because I used my small salary to buy it. I gathered everything that belonged to me. Just enough to fit into a small suitcase. I looked around the house. Where in the past. I used to bring so many expectations to enter. On the living room wall. Still hanging the large wedding photo of the two of us. I smiled brightly. Face full of happiness. And Co Than. Even though he's smiling. But in the depths of his eyes there was only cold distance. I'm blinded by love. To the point that even that is not visible. Now look back. It's ridiculous. I stepped onto the chair. Take down that offensive wedding photo. I used all my strength. Hit it hard on the floor. The sound of broken glass was deafening. Glass pieces flew everywhere. Just like my broken heart. Done it all. I pulled the suitcase. Without any hesitation left that place. The next day. Office of the General Director of Co Thi Group. Co Than sat behind the desk. The face is gloomy and scary. Not only do I not go to social parties. Even the phone is turned off. The general director's family name is Ma. Waited for me all night at the hotel. He was so angry. Immediately terminate all cooperation with Xi Co Thi group. That made Co Than. Losing face in front of the company's leadership.

“Where is To Tham?”

He got angry with his new secretary.

“Where is she?”

“Still not at the company yet?”

The new secretary replied tremblingly.

“Co… General Co.”

“To Tham did not come to the company today.”

Co Than was so angry that he threw the documents in his hand to the ground.

“She betrayed!”

“Connect the phone to the human resources department.”

“Tell them to immediately fire To Tham!”

"Right now!"

He said. I'm using this method to get angry. To attract his attention. He said. Just need a job. It's enough to control me. But just a few minutes later. The director of the human resources department personally knocked on the office door. His expression was even more unsightly than crying. He stood in front of Co Than. Trembling to the point of not being able to speak.

“Co… General Co…”
