Chapter 3 — The Day I Overthrew My Husband's Family

Updated 10/08/2026 7 min read

Ly Thien Thien's father smiled coldly. He hasn't said anything since the beginning, but his eyes are now cold and scary.

“Looking at my whole family like idiots, you call it a misunderstanding?”

“My daughter's reputation has been ruined by the two of you!”

He held up the belt in his hand. This time, the target is no longer Ly Thien Thien... but Chu Van Ban. Chu Van Ban panicked and backed away, hiding behind Luu Ngoc Mai.

“Don't… don't fight!”

Luu Ngoc Mai spread her arms in front of her son, like a mother hen risking her life to protect her child.

"What are you guys going to do! Do you want to hit someone?"

The living room immediately turned into chaos. Cursing, crying, screaming overlapped each other. I picked up the glass of water on the table, gently blew on it, then slowly took a sip. As if all the commotion before me… had nothing to do with me. My calmness was a complete contrast to their madness. Everyone instinctively fell silent for a moment, simultaneously looking at me. I put the glass down, making a slight "click" sound.

“Are you done arguing yet?”

“If that's done… then it's my turn to say a few words.”

My eyes glanced over each person. Luu Ngoc Mai, Chu Van Ban, Ly Thien Thien and her parents.

“Do you think… this is just a simple matter of borrowing a breed to have a child?”

My words made everyone freeze.

“Isn't that so?” Ly Thien Thien's mother asked.

I smiled, a cold smile.

“Of course not.”

“From beginning to end… this was a trap aimed at me.”

“A plot to make me leave empty-handed, even ruined.”

I looked straight at Chu Van Ban.

“Chu Van Ban, say it yourself.”

“If at that time I discovered that you were having an affair and were determined to divorce... what would you do?”

Chu Van Ban's lips trembled, unable to say a word.

“You don't say it, so I'll say it instead.”

I stood up and walked out into the middle of the living room.

“You and your 'good' mother will together blame me for 'not being able to have children'.”

"You will manipulate public opinion, drag relatives and friends to testify, saying that I live a carefree life that is why I am infertile."

"You will falsify evidence, accuse me of adultery in marriage, and turn me into a target for everyone to criticize."

“Finally, in the divorce, you will make me not get a single penny.”

“What I said… is it true?”

Chu Van Ban's face was no longer pale, but ashen ashen like a dead person. Luu Ngoc Mai also looked at me with horror. She didn't expect what they whispered in the bedroom... I knew every detail.

“You…how could you know!”

“Of course I know.”

I took out a small tape recorder from my pocket. Before everyone's frightened eyes, I pressed the play button. The voices of Luu Ngoc Mai and Chu Van Ban were clearly heard on the machine.

“Mom, what if Tham Nguyet finds out about what happened with Ly Thien Thien and asks for a divorce?”

"What are you afraid of? We just say he can't have children and that's it! I'll find some friends to spread the word, saying he has problems both physically and morally!"

“What about assets…”

"Don't even think about it for a penny! Get rid of it! Why would the Chu family give money to outsiders?"

Each sentence and each word was like a knife stabbing straight into the heart. Ly Thien Thien's entire family was dumbfounded after hearing this. Only now did they understand how much they were caught in a dirty mud puddle. Not just a tool... but also a chess piece that can be thrown away at any time. If I don't discover the truth soon, Ly Thien Thien's ending could only be "a seducer of married men". Being kicked out by the Chu family, he also had to carry a bad reputation for the rest of his life. Thinking of that, Ly Thien Thien screamed in despair. She rushed like crazy towards Chu Van Ban and Luu Ngoc Mai.

"You guys are fooling me! You're all fooling me!"

The scene was once again out of control. And I... just looked coldly. I turned off the recorder and added one last sentence.

“Ah yes.”

“The remaining character in the agreement, Chu Van Hao…”

“I think… it's almost here.”

As soon as the words ended, the doorbell rang just in time. The doorbell rang like a magic talisman. The faces of Chu Van Ban and Luu Ngoc Mai were immediately more unsightly than dead people.

“No… don't open the door!” Luu Ngoc Mai shouted at me.

As if I didn't hear it, I walked straight over and pulled the door open. Outside the door stood two people. One male, one female. The man was tall and thin, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, his face full of sophistication. He is Chu Van Ban's cousin, Chu Van Hao. The woman standing next to him is his wife, Vuong Linh, looking somewhat timid and withdrawn.

“Sister-in-law.” As soon as Chu Van Hao saw me, he immediately forced a fake smile.

“What's the matter with you calling us here so urgently?”

His eyes swept into the living room, the smile on his face immediately stiffened. The tense atmosphere in the room made him immediately realize something was wrong.

“What… what is this?”

I leaned to the side.

“Haven't you always wanted to meet your 'cooperation partner'?”

“There are enough people today, everyone sit down and talk directly.”

Chu Van Hao and Vuong Linh looked at each other, then reluctantly walked in. When they saw the agreement spread on the sofa, both of their faces changed.

"Sister-in-law, you're like this..." Chu Van Hao even tried to pretend to be stupid.

But I didn't give him a chance.

“Stop acting.”

“Chu Van Hao, what you and your husband are planning, I know better than anyone.”

I pointed towards Ly Thien Thien.

“Your big plan is to use her to force me to divorce.”

Then I pointed to the agreement on the table again.

“Then use this paper to officially make you the child's 'biological father'.”

“In the end, you get the house, you get the shares.”

“And I left empty-handed, ruined and ruined.”

“Chu Van Hao, is this script good?”

Chu Van Hao's face was sometimes red, sometimes white. He didn't expect me to tear everything apart and expose everything to the light. Vuong Linh was even more tense, his hands tightened on his shirt, not even daring to raise his head. When Luu Ngoc Mai saw reinforcements arriving, he immediately felt like he was clinging to a straw to save his life. She rushed in front of Chu Van Hao.

"Van Hao! Hurry and help me!"

"It's all this woman who talks nonsense! She wants to destroy our Chu family!"

Chu Van Hao frowned. He glanced at Chu Van Ban who was as soft as mud, then looked at Ly Thien Thien's family who were so aggressive as if they wanted to devour others. He immediately made a judgment in his heart. The story has been revealed. But it was also exposed to the point of being irreparably broken. But he's a smart guy. Or rather, the type of person who is extremely selfish and greedy. His eyes turned around, immediately thinking of a way to escape. He pushed Luu Ngoc Mai away, then looked at Chu Van Ban with a truly heartbroken expression.

"You! How could you do something like this!"

"What advice did you give me before? You said my sister-in-law is so good, I can't fault her!"

"But you definitely won't listen! You even use her to force me!"

As soon as he said these words, he cleaned himself up, as if he was a good person who was forced to do so. Chu Van Ban rolled his eyes at him. Luu Ngoc Mai also froze.

“Van Hao, you…”

Chu Van Hao didn't pay attention to them, just turned to me, his expression so sincere that it was nauseating.

“Sister-in-law, I'm sorry.”

"We were suddenly influenced by ghosts and ghosts, and even instigated by them."

"Don't worry, we won't accept that agreement! We don't need anything!"

“As long as you forgive me, let the two of you live well together.”

He acted to the point of overflowing emotions, as if he was truly sincere. If I hadn't seen through his true nature early on, I might have been fooled by that show. Ly Thien Thien's parents stood next to her, listening with her mind spinning like a pinwheel. Suddenly, another couple appeared, and the relationship became more and more complicated. I looked at Chu Van Hao's performance and just laughed coldly.
