Chapter 4 — When Lawyers Are Betrayed

I think of Ly Hue - my colleague. She is a senior partner in the office, specializing in marriage and family cases, with extensive experience and sharp tactics. Most importantly, you are a woman and will understand my mood right now. I sent a WeChat message: "Ms. Ly, can we meet to talk? I have something personal to ask for your advice." "Okay, when?" "Are you free tomorrow afternoon?" "No problem, see you at my office." "Yes, thank you." At that moment, my phone rang - Giang Hao called. "Wife, I just finished work, preparing to go home." – His voice sounded calm, not unusual at all. I looked at the clock – nine thirty at night. “Yes, I've eaten, I left a portion for you.” “Thank you wife, you're so kind.” You're so kind. The three words “you are so good” make me feel nauseous. “Be careful on the road.” – I finished speaking and immediately hung up. Almost at the same time, Old Vuong sent a new message: "They left the restaurant, now in the parking lot." Immediately followed by a few photos. In the photo, Giang Hao and Bach Nguyet hugged each other goodbye in the parking lot. Not a social hug, but a lover's hug. Bach Nguyet stood on tiptoe, Giang Hao bowed his head and kissed her forehead. In the last photo, Bach Nguyet got into a white Honda, Giang Hao stood and watched until the car left before returning to his car. I saved all the photos and transferred the payment to Old Vuong. "It's been hard work, let's continue tomorrow." "No problem, lawyer To." At ten fifteen, Giang Hao arrived home. As soon as he walked in, he said: "Wife, I'm home, I'm tired today." "It's been hard." – I stood up from the sofa – "Let me warm up some rice for you." "No need, I'm not very hungry. I'll go take a shower first." – Giang Hao said as he walked towards the bathroom. Not hungry. Of course not – just finished eating a full meal with my lover. I stood in the kitchen, pretending to be busy, but actually thinking about my next step. Now I have initial evidence that Jiang Hao is having an affair, but I still need more solid evidence. For example, hotel booking records, or even more intimate photos. Only when I have enough evidence can I take the initiative in the divorce case. And I want them to pay not only money, but also honor. Giang Hao thought he could hide it from me so he could secretly have an affair. He looks down on me too much. I'm To Can - one of the best lawyers in this city. I will let them understand what it costs to betray a lawyer. The next afternoon, I went to Ly Hue's office as scheduled. She is over forty years old, sharp, neat, and is our company's "trump card" in marriage cases. "To Can, looking at your face, you must be in trouble?" – Ly Hue poured me a cup of tea. “Yes, very troublesome.” – I got straight to the point – “Giang Hao had an affair.” Her face immediately turned serious. “Are you sure?” “Sure.” – I showed her the phone – "This is the evidence I collected." She looked carefully at each photo, occasionally nodding. "The evidence is quite complete." – she put down the phone – “How do you want to handle it?” “Divorce.” – I said firmly. "What about dividing assets?" "I want him to leave empty-handed." Ly Hue frowned slightly. "To Can, you must calm down. Even if there is evidence of adultery, it is still very difficult for him to leave empty-handed. The current law clearly stipulates asset division..." "I know the law." - I interrupted - "But Ms. Ly, I need you to help me find all the legal ways to make him pay the heaviest price." She pondered for a moment. "I understand your feelings, but must act within the framework of the law. Adultery does affect the division of assets, but to reach the point of being empty-handed, you need more evidence and strategies." "For example?" "For example, concealing common assets of husband and wife, intentionally dispersing assets, or committing the crime of bigamy. overlapping marriage) or living together as husband and wife

with others..." - Ly Hue listed - "I need to investigate whether Giang Hao has these behaviors." "I understand." – I nodded – “Then I will continue to collect evidence.” “There is one more point.” – Ly Hue reminded – “During the divorce lawsuit, you must protect your rights well. For example, controlling common assets, collecting his income documents..."
