Chapter 19 — The Former General's Ex-Wife Was a Genius Advisor

Updated 10/08/2026 3 min read

First, if this money comes from Co Ngon Chu's personal account, then at most it is just him voluntarily spending money to support his mistress, not violating the law. But if it comes from the account of the Co family group... That is a crime of embezzlement of company assets. Shareholders can sue him. The board can depose him. Second, no matter where the money comes from, To Mien Nguyet's "self-made" label is considered completely bankrupt. She boasted in interviews that the studio relied on its strength to get investment capital. But in reality all that "investment" was from a hidden stakeholder. That's not called investing. That's called "money laundering". I picked up my phone and texted Tran Niem: [Third layer, did the money come from the company fund or his personal pocket?] Tran Niem replied very quickly: [The auditor said, based on the purchasing records of the material platform, a part came from the Group's general fund. Rough estimate, at least 8 million yuan (more than 28 billion VND) is the company's money.] 8 million yuan. Not too much, but of an extremely serious nature. If this is exposed... Co Ngon Chu's reputation, his position in the Group, and even Co's stock price will all be affected. I stared at the phone screen for a long time. Should it be made public or not? In theory, this has nothing to do with me anymore. We are divorced. His company, his money, his woman —— have nothing to do with me. But... If I don't expose this matter, To Mien Nguyet will continue to use this fake face to move around in the industry. She will continue to rely on the label of "self-made" to gather capital, resources, and sympathy from public opinion. And every voice that questions her, including mine, will be accused of "jealousy" and "revenge". I don't do this for Co Ngon Chu. I do it for my own professional reputation. The report I wrote was accurate, my speech at the forum was accurate. But To Mien Nguyet used public opinion and the media to mold me into an "ex-wife who oppresses her opponent because of her own hatred." I don't bear this unjust reputation. I turned off the phone, made a decision. Temporarily immobilized. Wait until all the evidence has been linked into a complete chain, then release it once. A fatal blow. * I did not tell anyone the audit results, including my father. Qi Vien Minh couldn't even say it - he was a professional manager, once he had this information, he had an obligation to report it to the Compliance department, at which point the incident would spread out of control. What I need is to choose the right time and use the right method to expose the incident. Not too early, not too late. But fate did not give me time to leisurely prepare. Exactly on the day marking 2 months since I joined the company, the general chat group of the news department. [Urgent notice: The brand "Mien Nguyet Design" belonging to the Co Group officially submitted an application for consulting to the stock exchange (IPO). We recommend everyone to monitor industry fluctuations.] The coffee cup in my hand almost spilled over. Go to the floor? To Mien Nguyet's studio is about to go public (IPO)? I quickly checked the notification. It's not the studio that goes public, it's Tap Co Thi Group merged To Mien Nguyet's design business into an independent brand "Mien Nguyet Design", injected it into another shell company, with Co Group as the largest shareholder, and then started the IPO tutoring process. To Mien Nguyet holds the position of Creative Director and Brand Founder. Co Ngon Chu personally sits as Chairman of the Board of Directors. This operation is too fast. It's too quick.
