Chapter 2 — When Lawyers Are Betrayed

“Is this Miss Bach Nguyet very good?” – I pretended to ask casually. "Yes, she is not only very professional but also very gentle. Many students plan to study with her. Furthermore, she also has many male students, which is quite rare in a yoga studio." – the receptionist laughed. Male student. My heart trembled slightly. "Oh? A lot?" "Not too many, but there are indeed a few people. There is a guy named Giang, who just bought an annual card last month, and takes private classes with Ms. Bach Nguyet every week." His last name is Giang. I took a deep breath, trying to keep a calm expression. "So is he making progress in his studies?" "Very progress. Ms. Bach Nguyet said he is talented and progressing quickly. They often exchange yoga experiences and have a very good relationship." – the receptionist said with a smile. The relationship is very good. I asked a few more questions, grasped Bach Nguyet's teaching schedule and basic information. She is 26 years old, unmarried, and has been a yoga instructor for three years. People like his name - white skin, gentle personality. Completely opposite of me - a 32 year old female lawyer. I took a trial class schedule and signed up for a class the following Monday. "Let me help you book Ms. Bach Nguyet's class, she's really good." "No need." – I shook my head, "I want to check out other trainers first." Leaving the yoga room, I sat at a nearby cafe, sorting through all the information I gathered today. There is a high possibility that the person Giang Hao had an affair with is Bach Nguyet. Young, beautiful, gentle – a completely different type from me. I took my phone and sent a WeChat to assistant Tieu Lam: "Help me investigate someone - Bach Nguyet, 26 years old, yoga instructor. Need detailed background information." "Yes, lawyer To. When do you need it?" The sooner the better. "Understood." I leaned back in my chair, looking out at the crowded street outside the glass window. As a lawyer, I have handled countless divorce cases and have seen too many marriages break up because of infidelity. I never thought that one day that would happen to me. But it has happened, I will use all my professional skills to make him pay dearly. Giang Hao, do you think you're playing a joke with an ordinary housewife? You are wrong. The man you're facing is one of the best lawyers in this city. Monday morning, I went to the yoga room as scheduled. This time, I did not book Bach Nguyet's class but chose another coach. The purpose is simple – observe the interaction between Bach Nguyet and Giang Hao. According to information from the receptionist, Giang Hao's private class is scheduled every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 2 pm. It was only 10 a.m., so I took advantage of the trial class to familiarize myself with the environment, then looked for an opportunity to observe in the afternoon. The instructor of the trial class is a girl named Tieu Vu, very young, with standard movements and clear explanations. But I don't focus on yoga at all. I observed the layout of the entire gym, considering the best viewing position. The yoga room has three classrooms: one large room for group classes, the other two are private rooms. The private room has a glass wall but the decal is blurred, so from the outside you can't see the inside clearly. However, from the side door you can see part of it. At the end of the class, I deliberately stayed to chat with Tieu Vu - actually waiting for Giang Hao to appear. "How is Miss Bach Nguyet?" – I pretended to ask aimlessly. “She is very nice, especially interested in new coaches like us.” – Tieu Vu said, "Her expertise is also very high, many members appoint her to teach." "I see that she seems to have a lot of male students?" "Yes, she is friendly, both men and women like her. But..." - Tieu Vu hesitated a bit - "Recently it seems like she has a boyfriend." My heart beat a little. "Boyfriend?" "I'm just guessing." – Tieu Vu lowered her voice – “She often answers the phone these days

phone and laugh very happily. There is often a man who comes to pick me up or take me to work. Looks quite mature, neatly dressed, probably an office worker." Mature, office worker. Giang Hao is 35 years old, works in an investment company - this description fits perfectly. "Have you ever met him?" "Met him a few times, but didn't pay close attention. He seems to be quite handsome, driving a black Audi." Black Audi. Giang Hao drives a black Audi A6. I took a deep breath, trying to stay calm. "Does Miss Bach Nguyet have class this afternoon? I want to book a private class.” “There is one at 2 p.m., but it's full.” – Tieu Vu looked at the calendar, "Can you book it for tomorrow?" "No problem, let me see another time."
