Chapter 21 — The Bride Strikes Back: Exposing the Liar

I looked at the relatives in front of me, and an unprecedented strength arose in my heart. I am no longer fighting alone, behind me are the people who love me the most. The next day, I called a family meeting right in my living room. The eldest uncle, auntie and To Thanh all came, not one person was missing. To Thanh still maintained his familiar arrogant appearance, his eyes full of contempt. Perhaps she thought that when I returned from Tibet, I bowed my head and admitted defeat.

“Du Du, have you figured it out?”

She sat cross-legged on the sofa, her tone was high and condescending.

"After thinking it through, be a little obedient and transfer the house in your name to me."

“Let's pretend this never happened.”

She still dared to open her mouth and say such shameless words. The eldest uncle and aunt looked awkward, their faces slightly slackening.

"Tieu Thanh! Don't talk nonsense!"

I didn't bother to respond, just put the file bag I brought on the tea table.

“Eldest uncle, auntie, this is the gift I prepared for you two.”

I pushed the file bag towards them, my voice cold and calm. The eldest uncle opened it and pulled out the documents inside. His eyes immediately froze. His face turned white in an instant, as if blood had been drained from him. Inside was the testimony of the loan shark gang, along with To Thanh's transfer statement of fifty thousand. There is also a transcript of testimony confirming that To Thanh is one of the masterminds behind the fraud.

“This… what is this?”

Her voice trembled, almost broken. To Thanh also glanced over, his face immediately turned pale.

“This is slander!”

She screamed shrilly, as if her tail had been stepped on.

“I told you, it's a normal transaction, it's a referral fee!”

"I'm not familiar with the so-called Trieu family at all! This has nothing to do with me!"

She still tried to deny it, like someone dying in despair. I looked at her, my eyes cold to the bone.

“Not related?”

“So how do we explain this?”

I pressed the play button on my phone. Trat Tay's low voice rang out clearly in the living room space.

“…I saw with my own eyes To Thanh put drugs in To Du Du's glass of wine…”

“…She gave me money, forced me to take Du Du away, and even took pictures to threaten…”

“…She wants to destroy To Du Du…”

The recording was not long, but each word was like a sledgehammer, hitting straight into everyone's heart. The eldest uncle trembled as he held the documents, his hands constantly shaking violently. The aunt staggered and almost fainted on the spot. As for To Thanh, he lost all color and his lips trembled without making a sound. She looked at me, her eyes panicked.

“You… you found him?”

“No way… no way…”

“I clearly told him to disappear forever!”

She revealed it all herself. I don't need to say another word. I stood up, walked in front of her, looking down from above.

“Do you think everything you do is flawless?”

“Do you think you can control everyone's destiny?”

“Just because you hate me and resent me, you want to destroy me?”

“Colluding with the Trieu family, setting up a marriage trap.”

“Joining with loan sharks, falsifying guarantee documents.”

“Three years ago, you personally drugged me and took pictures as your trump card.”

“Your heart… what is it made of?”

“How can it be so cruel!”

Every word I said was like a knife sticking straight into her ta. The false mask is torn off, revealing the rotten soul underneath. Something so ugly it makes people nauseous.

"Yes! I did it!"

To Thanh jumped up like crazy, his face distorted with jealousy.

"Why! Why do you have everything!"

“Why do you get what I want so easily!”

“I just can't stand the fact that you live better than me!”

“I just want to destroy you!”

"What I can't have, you can't keep!"

She screamed madly, tearing the whole room apart. The eldest uncle trembled with anger, raised his hand and slapped her hard in the face.

“Animals!”

He had red eyes and pointed at her without being able to speak. At that moment, there was a loud knock on my door. I walked over and opened the door. Outside were several police officers wearing uniforms with stern eyes. The leading police officer nodded slightly at me, then walked straight into the living room. He took out a pair of cold handcuffs, the metal reflecting the light.

“To Thanh.”

His voice was deep and full of majesty.
