Chapter 4
Chapter 4 — The Day You Sent Me To Jail
At 9:30 p.m., I sat in the airport's business lounge. There's still an hour and a half left before boarding the plane. I drank a glass of hot milk and scrolled through my phone. On hot search there is no movement. Tham Yen Bach's wedding is tomorrow, today there are only a few top entertainment rumors. I scrolled two more times and suddenly saw a push notification. It's a post from a local life news account. Title: 【HOT! Revealing the wedding scene of the century: General Director Tham Yen Bach of Tham Thi will have a grand wedding tomorrow, bringing her childhood friend Hua Nhuoc Tinh back to the palace】 The attached photo is the layout of the wedding scene. White rose arch, crystal chandelier, silver tablecloth. Very lavish. Very majestic. My thumb stopped on the screen for 2 seconds. Then scroll through.
“Miss.” Lawyer Lieu sat down next to me, lowered his voice and whispered, "Boss Tien just called."
“Say it.”
"Boss Tien said... Boss Tham's side has just sent someone to the detention center."
I turned to look at her.
“When?”
"Just finished. About half an hour ago. Boss Tham's assistant brought someone there and said he was there to 'comfort' you. As a result, the warden reported that you had left since 2pm."
The corner of my mouth twitched. One day before the wedding, you finally remembered me? That's not right... it's not like he remembered me. He just wanted to confirm whether I was still locked in there or not. Confirm whether I will suddenly appear at the wedding tomorrow or not.
“And then what?”
"Then that assistant called to report to Boss Tham. Boss Tien said, Boss Tham seemed to have asked a question 'Where did she go'."
“Just one sentence?”
“Exactly one sentence. Then hung up.”
I bowed my head and smiled faintly. Just one sentence. After 4 years, I could only change one sentence.
“Ignore him.”
I put down the phone, closed my eyes and leaned back on the sofa.
“Call me when you get on the plane.”
11 o'clock. The plane took off on time. When the lights in the passenger compartment dimmed, I looked out the window, watching the city lights gradually recede. Those lights, getting smaller and smaller, turned into broken spots like stars, then disappeared under the clouds. Goodbye. Tham Yen Bach. Your wedding, your white moonlight, your Tham Thi group. It has nothing to do with me anymore. Oh no... Tham Thi Group is about to no longer have anything to do with you. I pulled down the window shade and wrapped the blanket tightly. At 30,000 feet, I had the best, most restful sleep I've had in four years. 【Chapter 4】 The next day. Tham Yen Bach's wedding. The weather that day was very nice. The sky is clear, 26 degrees, light wind. It is said that Hua Nhuoc Tinh chose a handmade wedding dress made from France, with a 3-meter long skirt and 800 Swarovski crystals. It is said that the guests present exceeded 600 people, including half of the prominent figures in the business world. It is said that that day Tham Yen Bach wore a dark blue suit, her hairstyle was smoother than usual, and the corner of her mouth always smiled. All of this, Uncle Tien later told me. At that time, I was staying in a hotel in Zurich, trying to adjust to the time zone, while eating breakfast and calling it up to my room. Croissants, smoked salmon, a cup of black coffee. Outside the window is Lake Zurich. The lake surface is very quiet, swans glide across, creating rolling ripples prolonged stretch. I chewed bread and read the message Uncle Tien sent. 【Uncle Tien: The lawyer's letter has been signed and received. Tham Thi's legal department is in chaos.】 【Uncle Tien: The wedding is taking place. It seems like Tham Yen Bach still doesn't know anything.】 【Uncle Tien: His secretary called me 7 times, but I didn't answer.】 I placed the phone face down on the table, took a sip of coffee. No rush. Just let him get married first.
