Chapter 4 — There Is Light At The End Of The Road

Updated 10/08/2026 4 min read

As soon as my words fell, it was like a bucket of cold water poured straight into a pan of boiling oil. Luc Triet's face immediately turned from fierce and distorted to ashen ash. He looked at me, his lips trembling, but he couldn't say a word. To Van stood outside the door, tears still streaming down her face, her expression stiff. In the darkness behind her, Luc Triet's mother, Vuong Cam, finally stepped out. She heavily placed the thermos in her hand on the ground. The sound of collision was deafening. She pointed straight at my face, her high-pitched voice seemed to rip through the air.

"You are truly an unscrupulous person! Where has our Luc family mistreated you?"

"Buying bags for you, buying clothes for you, treating you like your own daughter and loving you! Yet you repay us like that?"

"Ah Triet was just temporarily confused, making a mistake that any man can make! Do you have to go to this extent and force him into a dead end before he can accept it?"

I looked at her, almost burst out laughing. Money to buy bags, money to buy clothes... Is there any money that doesn't come from me? When Luc Triet first graduated, he couldn't even pay the rent. I was the one who told him to move into my apartment. When his job search was not going well, I asked my father to pave the way and arrange for him to join his current company. Later, he wanted to start a business, three million yuan of initial capital... I did not hesitate and transferred it directly from my account to him. But now... She still has the face to stand here and say the words "repay" to me.

"Miss Wang."

I spoke coldly.

"First, this house is mine. Please everyone get out immediately."

"Second, your son is not at fault."

"Which is illegal."

"He committed the crime of illegal marriage."

"Third, it's not like I forced him."

"It was he who chose this path himself."

"Now..."

"He has to pay for that choice himself."

Vuong Cam was so angry that his whole body trembled.

"...You cruel woman! Our A Triet family is truly blind to see someone like you!"

While scolding, she hugged her chest and breathed heavily.

"Oh... my heart..."

"I can't stand it anymore..."

"I'm about to be angered to death by a vixen like you..."

While screaming, she repeatedly winked at Luc Triet. Luc Triet immediately understood and quickly ran to help her.

"Mom! Mom! What's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"

To Van also hurriedly rushed forward, crying so much that the pear flowers were drenched in rain.

"Auntie! You have to try harder!"

"It's all my fault... I hurt Triet... I blame Tham Du..."

On the surface, he was crying bitterly. But the corner of her eye secretly glanced at me. Those eyes were filled with provocation and satisfaction. What a touching drama. Mother-in-law loves her child. The little boy is innocent. Of course he's evil. I crossed my arms and stood there, calmly watching the three of them act as if I were watching a play.

"Do you need me to call an ambulance for help?"

I asked calmly.

"But I'll remind you first."

"Ambulance costs are not cheap."

"Besides, if the doctor checks out it's fake illness..."

"It will also be recorded in the record."

Vuong Cam's screams immediately choked mid-sentence. Luc Triet raised his head and looked at me with eyes full of resentment.

"Tham Du..."

"Do I have to be so cruel?"

"I wasn't like that before like that."

"Before, I was very honest."

I laughed.

"My kindness..."

"Only for the worthy."

"Obviously..."

"You guys don't deserve it."

I picked up the phone and directly called the apartment complex's security department.

"Hello, security department?"

"My house is in building A, apartment 1601."

"Currently, three unrelated people broke into my house, deliberately stayed and refused to leave, and continuously insulted and attacked me."

"Please send two people to help handle it."

I turned on the speakerphone. Every word I said was clearly transmitted to all three people's ears. Luc Triet's face was sometimes blue, sometimes white. Even Vuong Cam forgot about pretending to be sick. She jumped up immediately.

"You dare! Tham Du, you dare call someone over!"

"I didn't call the police." I put down the phone and calmly replied. "I'm just getting the trash out of my house."

"Get out."

My voice is not loud. But he brought orders that did not allow anyone to argue back.
