Chapter 12 — Unlock Message 8.72 Billion After Divorce
But at that time... The screenshot had spread all over the internet. That night. Co Thua Trach sent me a message. I watched the livestream.
"How do you feel?"
"Even the last sentence, 'Do you believe what he said?' very lethal."
"I just improvised."
"When will you give me a clear answer?"
I looked at the phone screen, my fingertips stopped for a long time on the keyboard. In the end, I just typed three words.
"Wait more."
Very quickly after that, he answered. The next week passed quite peacefully. All activities of To Thi Group are progressing steadily. The Tan Thanh project north of the river has officially entered the design phase, while the technology sector's smart building materials project has also begun the research and development process. In complete contrast to To Thi, Luc Thi Construction Materials Company was officially put into bankruptcy and asset liquidation process. The bank recovered all loans. Suppliers, in turn, receive their debt back through the court's enforcement decision. The compensation for breach of contract from the government project has also had a final judgment. All houses and vehicles in Luc Vien Chau's name were confiscated and put up for auction. The Porsche Cayenne he used to drive, after three days of appearing on the judicial auction floor, was finally sold for only 70% of the starting price. Even the jade bracelet Tien Tu Phuong always wore on her hand... The bracelet that I used my own money to buy for her in the past, worth 280,000 yuan... ...was also sold. For the past two years, she has bragged everywhere that it was a gift from her filial son. Now when sold, at most they can only get more than 100,000 yuan. When that news reached my ears one after another, there were no more ripples in my heart. Things that should end... Are over. But there are also things... It's just the beginning. Wednesday afternoon, I received an unexpected call.
"Hello, Miss To. I'm Lam Uyen Nhi."
I frowned slightly.
"You still dare to call me?"
"Miss To, I have something to show you. It's related to Trieu Duc Hai."
"Trieu Duc Hai has resigned."
"He resigned, but is still quietly doing something."
I was silent for a few seconds.
"He is associating with an outside investment group, preparing to conduct a hostile takeover of To Thi Group's shares."
"In his hand, he still has the voting authorization papers of a number of small shareholders."
I tightened my grip on the phone a bit.
"How do you know that?"
"Because he wanted my help with something."
"He told me to approach Gu Chengze."
"Repeat the exact method I used to approach Luc Vien Chau before."
My fingers suddenly tightened.
"Why are you saying these things to me?"
"At first, Trieu De Hai promised to pay me 20,000,000 yuan."
"But I know he would never give it."
"He just used me."
"If you use it, you'll kick me out."
"Exactly like Luc Vien Chau."
"So you want revenge on him?"
"I just want to find a way to live."
"Miss To, I know I'm not a good person."
"But Trieu Duc Hai is much scarier than me."
"The person he wants to deal with..."
"...it's not just you."
"...but also your grandfather."
I immediately changed my expression.
"What do you mean?"
"Him say..."
"...President To's health is no longer good."
"If he just falls down..."
"...To Thi Group will lose its head."
"At that time..."
"...is the most appropriate time for him to strike."
I squeezed the phone so tightly that my knuckles turned white.
"Do you have proof?"
"I have the recording."
"That day Trieu Duc Hai told me these things..."
"...I secretly recorded the whole thing."
"Send me the recording file."
"No way."
"I have to give it directly."
"Because in the recording..."
"...aside from Trieu Duc Hai's voice..."
"...there's someone else."
"One person..."
"...you absolutely wouldn't expect it."
"The person who is always by your grandfather's side."
My heart suddenly beat faster.
"Meet where?"
"Three o'clock tomorrow afternoon."
"Coffee shop in the lobby of Giang Thanh International Hotel."
"I only have one condition."
"After everything is over..."
"...give me 1,000,000 yuan."
"Let me leave Giang Thanh."
"Start life again."
"I agree."
As soon as I hung up the phone, I immediately called Co Thua Trach.
"It's possible that Trieu Duc Hai is planning to take over To Thi."
The other end of the line was silent for two seconds.
"Source?"
"Lin Uyen Nhi."
Another two seconds of silence.
"Do you trust her?"
"I trust the way she weighs benefits."
"She has no way out now."
"Betraying Trieu Duc Hai is the only card she still has."
"Are you going to meet alone?"
"No way."
"I'll go with you."
"Co Cheng Ze..."
"This is not up for negotiation."
After speaking, he hung up the phone. At exactly 2:50 p.m. the next afternoon, I was at Giang Thanh International Hotel. Co Thua Trach's car arrived about five minutes earlier than mine. He was already sitting in the lobby.
"I'll sit at the next table."
"Not exposed."
I nodded slightly. At exactly 3 o'clock, Lam Uyen Nhi appeared. We haven't seen her for just over a week... ...but she seems to have turned into a different person.
