Chapter 3 — Three Years of Patience, in exchange for the entire Co Thi Group

Tuong Dung still didn't know what life or death was, and continued to scream like crazy.

"It's a betrayal! It's a betrayal!"

“Tham Niem, you slut, quickly take your bastard child and get out of here!”

“This is the Co family's house, not a place for you to show off your power!”

Tham Quyet didn't even bother to look at her once. He just gently gestured. The two bodyguards behind him immediately stepped up. One person holds one side. Easily controlling Tuong Dung like carrying a small chicken. She struggled wildly. But other than the inarticulate gurgles, there was nothing else that could be done. The entire hall was eerily quiet. So quiet that you can clearly hear each person breathing. I hugged An An. Step by step, he approached Co Hoai. The surprise in his eyes had not yet disappeared. The look towards me at this moment was full of strangeness and scrutiny. It was like this was the first time he really got to know me. I looked straight into his eyes. The voice is very light. But every word is extremely clear.

“Three years ago, when I married you, the Co family's grandfather had an agreement with me.”

“Now... the one who violated the previous agreement is you.”

The moment I heard the four words "Grandfather of the Co family". Co Hoai's pupils suddenly contracted. The events that happened before the old man's death were always a thorn in his heart. It's the secret he tries the most to forget. But I didn't give him any chance to react. I hugged An An. Turn around and leave. Never looked back. The bodyguards standing at the door automatically separated to the sides. Give way to a wide path. When walking to the door. I stopped. Tilt your head and look at him one last time. Just leaving him with an extreme cold side profile.

“From tomorrow onwards.”

“Prepare to receive greetings from the Tham family.”

Behind me. The Co family's relatives began to talk loudly.

“What exactly is the origin of the Tham family?”

“This scene is even more melodramatic than a TV show.”

“This time, Co Hoai really kicked the steel plate.”

“It looks like the Co family is about to encounter big trouble.”

Co Hoai still stood in place. Immobility. His eyes looked at the long fleet of luxury cars with no end in sight outside the villa. First time in my life. He feels things are completely out of control. An unprecedented insecurity slowly crept up in my heart. Wrapped tightly around his heart like a poisonous vine. I carried An An and walked into Tham Quyet's Rolls-Royce. The moment the car door closes. All the noise and chaos behind were immediately completely blocked out. Weakness. Heartbreak. Anger. It all disappeared. Instead, there is the coldness and decisiveness that belongs to someone standing at the pinnacle of power. I raised my head. Calmly spoke up.

“The Judge.”

Tham Quyet sitting in the passenger seat immediately turned around. Absolutely respectful attitude.

“Initiate the Purge Plan.”

“The first step.”

“A collection of all raw material suppliers in which we hold a controlling stake.”

“From this moment on.”

“Cut off all supply to Co Thi Group.”

Tham Quyet immediately opened the tablet. Fingers operate extremely quickly on the screen. No hesitation.

“Yes, Mr. Tham.”

The two words "General Examiner". Officially announced the return of his true identity. I am no longer Tham Niem - the oppressed daughter-in-law in the Co family. I'm the one holding it The real authority of Tham Thi Group. The person standing at the top of the pyramid of tycoons. In my heart. An An also seemed to feel the change in the atmosphere. She gently grabbed the hem of my shirt. Ask in a low voice:

“Shouldn't we go back to that house again?”

I bowed my head. Gently kiss your child's forehead. Carefully wiped away the remaining tear stains on that small face. The voice was so gentle that I had never heard it myself.

“Not coming back anymore.”

“I will take you to our home.”

An An blinked. Seems to understand. Seems like you don't understand. But in the end, he still obediently nodded. The baby snuggled deep into my arms. Close your eyes peacefully. The Rolls-Royce slowly left the Co family's villa. Through the rearview mirror. The luxurious mansion bathed in light gradually became smaller. In the end, there was only a faint speck of light in the middle of the night. I looked at the scenery outside the window moving quickly backwards. There is no longer any attachment in my heart. Tuong Dung. This is just the beginning. Debt for the past three years. I will refund every single amount. Both capital and interest. Not a penny missing. Monday morning. Financial markets officially open for trading. Co Thi Group's shares just opened the session and plummeted to the floor without any warning signs. Just for a short time. The entire business community in Giang Thanh was shocked. In the general manager's office. Co Hoai is being overwhelmed by a series of calls. The phone on the table rings almost non-stop.

"Mr. Gu! Our largest raw material supplier, Hoanh Phat, has just unilaterally canceled the contract!"

"Mr. Co! Thinh Nguyen has also cut off the supply! They said they would rather pay three times the amount for breach of contract than continue to cooperate with us!"

"Mr. Gu! All downstream partners have received news that our production line is about to stop working! Now everyone is demanding to end cooperation!"

Bad news follows bad news. Continuously coming. Co Thi's most important core projects. After just one night. They all fell into a state of complete paralysis because the source of raw materials was cut off. Stock prices plummeted like a waterfall. There's no sign of stopping.

“Shut up for me!”

Co Hoai was angry. He swept all the documents on the table to the ground. Both eyes are bloodshot. Blue veins appear on the forehead.

“Go investigate now!”

“By all means, find out for me!”

“In the end, which company is behind it!”

Doesn't take too much time. Results are sent quickly. All suppliers. No exception. They have all moved to cooperate with a business called... Tham Thi Group. It's a company that seemingly emerged from underground overnight. Mysterious background. But the strength is so strong that it's scary. They use prices much higher than the market. Exclusively purchasing all related raw materials in the East China region for the next year. Tham Thi... Tham Niem... Co Hoai is not a fool. Almost immediately. He related the two names together. He picked up the phone. Call me crazy. Time after time. But he only responded with a cold, mechanical voice.
