Chapter 5 — When he returned, the house had been transferred to someone else's name

Updated 10/08/2026 4 min read

Just change to another number. I swiped the screen to receive a call but didn't speak. Immediately, a shrill female voice rang out. It's my ex-mother-in-law. As soon as she opened her mouth, she cursed loudly:

"To Tinh! That shameless vixen!"

“Give me my son back!”

"What karma did our Chu family create by marrying a comet like you?! Defrauding my son of his home and leaving him alone in the country! Has your conscience been spared by dogs?!"

I spoke coldly.

“For that house, Chu Minh did not spend a penny.”

“My parents paid for the deposit to buy a house.”

“I pay the monthly installments myself.”

“It has nothing to do with your son, and it has nothing to do with you.”

“You lie!”

She immediately started making a fuss.

“If my son's name is on the papers, that house is his!”

"You are a thief! You are a robber!"

“So whose name is on the certificate of ownership now?”

I asked back. She choked.

"Notarized gift documents have legal effect. If you don't understand, you can ask a lawyer."

“I don't care about any paperwork!”

“I just know now my son has lost his home!”

“It's all your fault!”

"You vile-hearted woman! You will not die properly!"

Her curses were like dirty fireworks continuously exploding in her ears. I put the phone away a bit. I waited until she was tired of scolding, leaving only the sound of panting, then I put the phone back to my ear.

"I have carefully wrapped your purple tea set and placed it in the closet in the spare bedroom."

“I told Chu Minh to come back and get it.”

"If he's too lazy to take it, let the new homeowner throw it away for you."

After speaking, I didn't give her a chance to react and directly hung up. Then drag that phone number to the blacklist. I leaned my back against the wall. Slowly sit down on the floor. Heart beats very fast. Not out of fear. It's because of anger. A disgusting feeling like having mud splashed all over my body. I hugged my knees and buried my face. Leaving that man is just the first step. If I want to be truly free, I must personally cut off all the rotten roots related to him. Chu Minh and his mother's attacks were like two stones thrown into a lake. Even if it creates ripples. But the lake surface will eventually return to calm. I don't continue to pay attention to the noise in the country anymore. Just focus on living your own life. A few days later. My best friend from college sent me some screenshots.

“Tinh Tinh, look, that scumbag has started acting.”

I opened the photo. It's a post on Chu Minh's friend circle. He posted a very long post. The attached photo is his lonely back in an empty room. The general idea of the content is: How much he loves his family. How hard you work. But in the end, he received unintentional betrayal from his wife. That wife wiped out the house that the two of them "worked so hard to get" and all their savings, then ran away with a rich old man with whom she had been dating for a long time. Leaving him alone to face an empty house and huge debt. He built his image as a man in love. Exhausted of all value and then cruelly thrown away. The article was so touching that it was gut-wrenching liver. I almost believed it myself. Below the comments section. Many of our mutual friends are comforting him.

“Come on guys!”

"I didn't expect To Tinh to be that kind of person. I was wrong."

“Because that type of woman is not worth it.”

Bach Vy's comment is in the most prominent position:

"Don't be sad anymore. Everything will be okay. You still have us."

The back also includes an hugging symbol. It's so fake it's disgusting. My friend was so angry that he gritted his teeth:

"Oh my god! How can he change white to black to this extent? I have to comment and scold him to death!"

I replied.

“Just let him defame you like that?”

“If you come in and scold me now, others will only think that you are my friend and are defending me.”

“It doesn't make any sense.”
