Chapter 7 — The Onyx Bracelet Shatters, The Husband's Secret Is Also Revealed
Every call that appeared was like a knife blade pressing closer to his neck little by little. Luong Man sat down on the chair. His eyes were completely empty. Only now did she understand. What I broke was not just a bracelet. It's the last chance to save Luong Khai Hang's company. I took my coat. Prepare to leave. Ha Nghien reached out and held my sleeve.
"Tram Duong, let's go home and talk."
I bowed my head and looked at his hand.
"That place is no longer home."
"From the moment I mortgaged it, it was no longer a house."
His hand slowly dropped. As soon as I walked to the door. The phone rang again with a new notification. This time it's not from Duyet Lan. It was a call from the trust fund manager appointed by my mother before she passed away. I received the phone. The voice on the other end was extremely serious.
"Miss Tham, the system has just issued a risk warning."
"According to the protection clause that her mother established, if her spouse or relatives attempt to dispose of assets in her name without authorization, the trust's protection mechanism will be automatically triggered."
I stopped. Behind me, everyone was looking at me. The other end of the line continued.
"In addition, all shared accounts between you and Mr. Ha will be temporarily frozen for review before twelve o'clock tonight."
The words just ended. Ha Nghien's phone vibrated. Right after that was Ton Phuong Anh's phone call. Ha Chinh Duc looked down at the screen, his face immediately became gloomy. Luong Man, who was sitting blankly on the chair, listened to the consecutive announcements and her face became even paler. I'm still standing at the door. Never turned back. The trust fund manager went on to say:
"Miss Tham, the protection mechanism has officially taken effect."
"All real estate, shares and beneficiary accounts from the trust fund in your name will be prohibited from any third party manipulation from tonight."
"All documents submitted by Mr. Ha or his relatives will be transferred to the legal department for review."
"If we detect acts of forged signatures, signatures or unauthorized guarantees, we will coordinate directly with the authorities."
"It's been hard for you."
The other end of the line was silent for a few seconds.
"Here's one more thing."
"The system has just detected a power of attorney to handle assets in your name uploaded three days ago."
Ha Nghien's breathing immediately became chaotic. Only then did I turn my head to look at him. His hand remained stiff in mid-air. His face was no longer calm.
"Which property?"
The trust fund manager replied:
"The apartment in Duyet Giang Phu where she and Mr. Ha are living."
"And part of the right to benefit at Duyet Lan Holdings."
Ton Phuong Anh immediately shouted.
"What is the right to benefit?"
No one answered her. She turned to Ha Nghien, her voice almost lost.
"What else are you hiding from your family?"
Ha Nghien stared at me. Lips moved slightly.
"Tram Duong, that document is not yet valid."
I smiled slightly.
"So that means you admit it exists."
Ha Nghien's face immediately became extremely ugly. Next to him, Luong Khai Hang was so impatient that sweat ran down his temples.
"Didn't you say there was only the last step missing?"
"Didn't you say as long as she doesn't join the system With the inspection system, will everything go smoothly?"
Just finished speaking. The air in the living room immediately froze. Luong Man rushed forward in panic. Use your strength to pull your brother's sleeve.
"Shut up!"
But everything was out of time. Lawyer Dieu stood next to him and slowly placed the tape recorder on the table. The red indicator light is still on. Seeing that red dot, Ha Nghien's face immediately turned white as if all the blood had been drained. I ended the call and returned to the dining table. The evidence bag containing the broken bracelet pieces still lies next to the cold dinner tray. Under the light, the red agate's cross-sections reflect cold light. Just now, everyone said it was just a bracelet. But now, it looks like an eye. Quietly witness all the greed and calculations in this house. Finally, Ha Chinh Duc spoke up.
"Tram Duong, turn off the recorder."
I looked at him. He tried to stay calm.
"Do not let outsiders know about family matters."
I calmly replied:
"But that wasn't caused by me."
The corner of Ha Chinh Duc's eye twitched.
"You're still young."
"Don't cut off your own escape route."
I ask again:
"It's my way out..."
"Or is it Ha Nghien's retreat?"
He immediately became speechless. At that moment, Ton Phuong Anh rushed in front of me. The woman who had just been arrogant and overbearing, now had red eyes.
"Duong Duong."
"I beg you, Mom."
"I'll tell the trust fund to stop first."
"If Ha Nghien is investigated, the Ha family will be finished."
I looked at her.
"What does the Ha family's fate have to do with you?"
Ton Phuong Anh couldn't believe it.
"I am the daughter-in-law of the Ha family."
I calmly replied:
"But very soon it won't be like that anymore."
She quickly grabbed my arm.
"I can't be that cruel."
"Which couple doesn't get angry sometimes?"
"Besides, Man Man already knows he's wrong."
Hearing her name called, Luong Man immediately raised her head. Tears were still on his face. The voice was hoarse.
"I really know it's wrong."
"I will pay you back."
"I will apologize."
"You can apologize however you want."
Having finished speaking, she actually knelt down in front of the evidence bag. But before his knees even touched the ground, Luong Khai Hang pulled him back.
"Are you crazy?"
"I kneel in front of her. Will I have the face to see anyone else in the future?"
Looking at the two cousins, I suddenly felt funny. Until now. What they care about most is still face. I said softly:
"It turns out your reputation is worth more than three hundred and fifty thousand yuan."
Luong Khai Hang gritted his teeth. His eyes looked at me full of resentment.
"Tram Duong."
"Don't think that having a little money can force others into a corner."
"The ones who use my money to fill your hole are you guys."
"Now that hole cannot be filled anymore."
"Are you turning around and saying I'm forcing you?"
Luong Khai Hang immediately rushed forward. Lawyer Dieu quickly stood in front of me.
