Chapter 8 — The Day You Pulled Your Lover On Stage, I Recovered All My Investment

As soon as Lam Man opened her mouth, she stopped. Co Trach's face immediately darkened. I took the microphone.

“General Lam.”

“Aren't you a co-founder?”

“The first phase documents have also been reviewed.”

“So you must remember the name of the signer?”

The whole hall immediately became a little quieter. Lam Man looked at Co Trach. Co Trach snatched the microphone back.

“There is no need to debate those details.”

I laughed.

"Unnecessary."

“Or don't you dare?”

Co Trach's face completely turned cold.

“Khuong Le.”

"Last."

“Hand over the documents.”

At that moment, the door at the back of the hall was pushed open. Ms. Tuong brought with her more than ten people who had contributed capital since the first days of entering the company. No one wears designer clothes. In their hands, each person holds a copy of that year's contract. Co Trach's face immediately changed.

“Who let you in here?”

Chu Du stood up straight. All eyes in the hall turned to him. Chu Du opened the crumpled access card in his hand.

“I've been following you for five years.”

“Minh Chau's first office, I was also present.”

“Whether Ms. Khuong is harmful to the company or not, I don't know.”

“But I know that year the company didn't have enough money to pay salaries.”

“It was Ms. Khuong who brought a few thermos flasks.”

“Tell us to eat first.”

"She's talking about money, Mr. Co will definitely solve it."

Co Trach roared angrily: Chu Du looked straight at him.

“That night I sat crying in the stairwell.”

“Miss Khuong stood outside the door and listened until she left.”

“The money came the next day.”

The whole hall echoed with the sound of soft breathing. Co Trach rushed forward to grab the microphone. I spoke first.

“Doesn't everyone want to know where the documents are?”

Everyone looked at me. I took out the blue folder from my bag. Place it on the projector table.

“Tomorrow, six o'clock in the evening.”

“Minh Chau's large meeting room.”

“Co Trach.”

“In front of everyone, please clearly explain the source of this money.”

Co Trach's face turned completely pale. Lam Man grabbed the podium to speak. The bracelet was pulled off by her. Pearls rolled all over the floor. I bent down and picked up a seed. Place it back in her palm.

“Don't rush.”

“It's not yet time to lose face.”

Co Trach couldn't wait until the next night. That very night. He brought Trieu Tue Lan and Lam Man to block my front door. Residential security guards did not dare to let them up. The three of them immediately sat down in the hall. Trieu Tue Lan cried and cursed. The scolding echoed all the way to the elevator lobby. When I went downstairs, there were already a few residents standing and watching the excitement. Just saw me. Trieu Tue Lan immediately rushed forward.

“Khuong Le!”

“You unscrupulous thing!”

“A Trach, what is wrong with you?”

“You want to ruin it!”

“Do you want the Co family to be laughed at to death?”

I avoided her hand.

“She spoke a little quietly.”

“Upstairs there are old people resting.”

Trieu Tue Lan sat down on the ground. While beating my thighs and crying.

“Everyone look!”

“This woman married into the Co family for five years.”

“Not giving birth.”

“Not going to work.”

"Now that I'm divorced, I still want to harm my ex-husband's company."

“It wants to force people to death!”

Lam Man stood next to support Co Trach. His face was pale. Looks like someone I cornered. Co Trach said:

“Khuong Le.”

“Your mother is old.”

“Don't provoke her.”

I look at him.

“She sat on the ground cursing at me.”

“Did I provoke her?”

A resident next door recognized Co Trach. Small voice:

“Isn't that the late General of Minh Chau?”

Another aunt immediately continued:

“Is that the person on the news?”

“That female secretary thing?”

Trieu Tue Lan cried even louder.

“My son is just too honest.”

“Just got attached to this kind of woman.”

“Divorce has given him so many things but he still doesn't know enough.”

“Give me what?”

Trieu Tue Lan choked.

“Isn't the house money?”

“The house is common property after marriage.”

“Co Trach gave it to me because the agreement said so.”

“You stayed for five years.”

“Eating for five years.”

“Is there anything that wasn't earned by my son?”

I looked at Co Trach.

“Do you think so too?”

He avoided my eyes for half a second.

“Khuong Le.”

“Now is not the time to argue about that.”

I nodded.

“So what to fight for now?”

Lam Man finally spoke up.

“Miss Khuong.”

“General Co has not slept well these past few days.”

“The company still has a lot of people.”

“Can you raise it high and hit it softly?”

“If you want money, we can talk.”

“If you want a public apology, I can also coordinate.”

“Please don't force him anymore.”

I looked at her.

“What kind of coordination do you have?”

Lam Man bit her lip.

“I can post a statement.”

“Saying that the bell ringing ceremony that day was just a company arrangement.”

“Mr. Co and I don't have that kind of relationship.”

Co Trach immediately turned his head to look at her. Trieu Tue Lan was also stunned. I laughed.

“Can you really bear it?”

A trace of resentment flashed in her eyes. But it was quickly forced down.

“As long as I can help President Co.”

“I am willing to suffer.”

Co Trach's expression softened a bit.

“Man Man…”
