Chapter 21 — The Onyx Bracelet Shatters, The Husband's Secret Is Also Revealed

Updated 10/08/2026 5 min read

"Luong Man just posted another post."

"Dig your own hole."

I looked down at the screen. Still the photo in the hospital. But this time. Luong Man posted another photo angle. The photo was taken sideways. In the photo is my mother. There is Ha Chinh Duc. And there's also an open file on the table. Perhaps Luong Man thought no one would pay attention. But the photo is very high resolution. Zoom in. Some lines of writing can still be clearly seen. I stopped. Lawyer Dieu also saw it. She immediately zoomed in further. On the left corner of the file. Clearly display a subject line.

"Application to change trust beneficiary."

There are also dates below. It was right before my mother passed away. The atmosphere in the hall immediately became strange. I slowly raised my head. Look at Ha Chinh Duc. First time. Always trying to maintain that solemn look on his face. There was real panic. Because this time. It's not me who said it. Not what the lawyer said. It's their own people. Present the evidence yourself in front of everyone. Ton Phuong Anh's voice trembled.

"Old Ha..."

"What is that?"

Ha Chinh Duc did not answer. He just stared at my phone screen. As if wanting to go through the screen to delete that photo. But it was too late. Outside the hotel. More and more people are raising their phones to spin. More and more lenses were pointed at him. And for the first time since it all started. The person was cornered. It's not me anymore. Ton Phuong Anh panicked and pushed the wheelchair. Apparently she noticed. Things are completely different today. It's no longer just a few sentences of family morality. A few tears. Or a few words of reproach can force me to back down. But Ha Chinh Duc still did not move. He sits in a wheelchair. Dark eyes looked at me through the glass door. It's like really realizing it for the first time. The daughter-in-law they once considered easy to bully. Completely freed from their control. I looked at him. Calmly said:

"You just told me to save my reputation."

"Then I'll ask you a question too."

"If the application to change the beneficiary that year is approved."

"What are you going to tell my mother?"

"Am I family?"

"Or is her property also the property of the Ha family?"

Ha Chinh Duc's face twitched slightly. A nearby onlooker couldn't help but ask:

"Is there really such a thing?"

Another person immediately chimed in:

"Didn't she show you the file just now?"

"I still come back all the way."

The crowd started talking. The whispering grew louder and louder. The Ha family's relatives were still aggressively questioning me. Now they all bowed their heads to avoid other people's eyes. No one dares to open their mouth to scold me anymore. Because they themselves begin to understand. If what I say is true. So the person who is wrong may not be me. Ha Chinh Duc suddenly spoke up. The voice is very hoarse.

"Tram Duong."

"Do you have to do it to this extent?"

I laughed.

"If today the person whose seal is taken is you."

"The person whose signature was forged is you."

"The person who was framed for the debt of one thousand six hundred thousand was you."

"How far will you go?"

He choked. Unable to answer. Because everyone knows the answer. Right at that moment. Lawyer Dieu's phone vibrated again. She looked at the screen. Then immediately raised his head.

"The audit team just sent a notice."

I took the phone. On the screen The picture is the latest email. The title is only one line.

"Detecting transactions related to trust assets before the death of the trust creator."

I read on. His eyes became colder. Lawyer Dieu looked at my expression.

"What is up?"

I slowly raised my head. His eyes stopped on Ha Chinh Duc.

"The audit team just found out."

"A week before my mother passed away."

"Someone tried to use her medical records to apply for temporary representation."

The entire hall suddenly fell silent. Even Ton Phuong Anh was dumbfounded. I looked straight at Ha Chinh Duc. Each word rang out clearly:

"The signer authenticates that record."

"It's still you."

Ha Chinh Duc's face instantly turned pale. No one thinks he's acting anymore. Because of the fear on that face. Cannot be faked. He looked at me. Those eyes were no longer pleading. No more dissatisfaction. There is only a kind of emptiness left like someone who has just been sentenced. I didn't ask who was calling. But the look on his face gave me the answer. It's bad news. Very bad news. The crowd outside was still buzzing. The full video went viral at breakneck speed. The people just now were pointing at me. Now I started to turn to look at the Ha family again. Look at Ha Chinh Duc. Look at Ton Phuong Anh. Look at Ha Nghien. The phone in his hand had not yet been put down. A while later. He just spoke. Hoarse voice.

"Prosecution has been initiated."

It made Ha Chinh Duc's face change completely.

"Prosecute what?"

He almost jumped up from the wheelchair. Ha Nghien did not answer immediately. He looked at me. As if knowing that from this moment on. Nothing can be hidden anymore.

"The complaint concerns signature forgery."

"Illegal possession of the seal."

"Fake guarantee documents."

He stopped. Throat movements are difficult.

"Previous trust records."

The atmosphere around the hotel suddenly fell silent. Ton Phuong Anh trembled.

"No way..."

"Aren't we just investigating?"

Ha Nghien closed his eyes.

"Just now the investigation team officially received it."

The phone in Ton Phuong Anh's hand fell to the ground. Makes a crisp impact sound. Ha Chinh Duc stared at his son. For the first time, true panic appeared in his eyes. He understands. The scariest thing has never been public opinion. Nor is it a divorce. That's when things start going into the legal process.
