Chapter 10 — The Last Three Minutes of a Ten Year Marriage

“As the Co family, we are sorry for you.”

“But the company is innocent.”

“You cannot affect the stability of the company because of personal grudges.”

“The matter of dismissing the General Director stops here.”

"Our Co family will compensate you adequately for your assets."

He is playing on emotions. Also using the big picture to put pressure on me. Use the company's stability as a shield. Forcing me into a morally passive position. I am no longer the On Tinh of before. No longer someone who lets others manipulate at will.

“Chairman Co.”

“You said it wrong.”

I stood up. Calmly look straight into his eyes.

“What I did today…”

“It is for the future of the company.”

“A person who can't even manage his own family.”

“A leader with corrupt ethics.”

“Lies are common.”

“What makes you believe that he can lead the company further?”

“Today he could cheat on me for ten years because of one woman.”

“So tomorrow…”

“Would he sell out all the shareholders sitting here for the greater good?”

Every word I said. All are like sharp blades. Straight into the weakest point of everyone in the room. The faces of the shareholders gradually became heavy. The eyes looking towards Co Ngan also began to waver. Loyalty is the most important quality of a leader. A person can deceive the person who has their knee on their back for ten years. Then his promise... How much more is it worth? Right at that moment. The meeting room door was suddenly pushed open. Bach Nguyet wears a hospital gown. His face was pale. Panic rushed straight inside. Behind her were two nurses frantically chasing after her. She shouted. Then rushed to Co Ngan's side. Use your body to block in front of him. Like I was the one who wanted to harm him.

“Don't dismiss Mr. Ngan!”

“It's all my fault!”

“It has nothing to do with him!”

She turned towards me. Then kneel down directly.

“Miss Tinh!”

“I beg you!”

“Spare him!”

“The baby…”

“Our baby cannot be without a father!”

This tragic love story. Indeed, it was performed extremely realistically. Even some stubborn shareholders began to show signs of dissatisfaction. Chu Nha Lan became even more excited. She immediately ran to help Bach Nguyet. Crying and crying out:

“My grandson!”

I looked at the wild scene before my eyes. Then burst out laughing.

“Don't be in such a hurry to find a father for the baby in your belly.”

I pulled out a stack of documents from the file. Then throw it on the conference table.

“Or you should look at this report first.”

“And then explain it to your current 'boyfriend' as well.”

“The baby in your belly…”

“Whose child is it anyway?”

The white report pad lies quietly on the dark conference table. But this time. It was like a sentence sent from hell. All eyes simultaneously focused on that stack of documents. Bach Nguyet's crying suddenly stopped. Her whole body stiffened. Like a frozen statue. Co Ngan frowned. Raise your hand to pick up the report. But just glanced at it once. The pupils had contracted violently.

“What is this?”

His voice became hoarse. Full of disbelief.

“This is your most recent three-month pregnancy examination report Bach.”

I stopped for a beat. His eyes slowly glanced over Bach Nguyet's face, which had lost all color.

“It's her ex-boyfriend's file.”

“According to the report.”

“Miss Bach's current pregnancy is twelve weeks and four days.”

“Also according to immigration data and hotel accommodation information.”

“Three months ago.”

“General Manager Co is on business in Europe for half a month.”

I tilted my head slightly. The corners of his lips curled up into a faint smile.

“So the problem here is…”

I looked straight at Co Ngan. The smile on her lips was so pure that it looked like an angel. But the words spoken were as sharp as a knife.

“While I was on a business trip.”

"Who exactly made Ms. Bach pregnant with this 'head of the Co family'?"

“Is it her ex-boyfriend who studied Physical Education?”

“You just broke up less than half a year ago?”

“The person who stayed in the same hotel as her for three consecutive nights exactly three months ago?”

Those words just came out. It was like an atomic bomb exploded in the middle of a conference room. The amount of information is too large. So loud that everyone in the meeting room was shocked to death. Co Ngan's face continuously changed. From amazement. It's unbelievable. Then it turned into sky-high rage. In the end... Only ash remained. He suddenly turned his head. His eyes locked tightly on Bach Nguyet.
