"What he did was an illegal transfer of marital assets.

"If you file for divorce, not only will he have to leave with nothing, but the third party, Rosalie, also has to return everything in full," Quinn explained.

I stared at the glaring red circles calmly. "What about my apartment?"

"The subsidized apartment is an employee-exclusive benefit for you. He's violated the company's policy by forging your signature."

Quinn clasped her hands. Her gaze was piercing. "If you allow me to, I can issue a legal notice to his workplace.

"At the same time, you have to submit a formal declaration to your company's logistics and security departments and make them kick out irrelevant personnel."

I nodded and signed my name on the authorization letter without hesitation.

"Quinn, there's one more thing." I raised my head, my gaze cold.

"They were talking like a married couple in the recording. It's too strange. Please hire a private investigator and find out who Zachary's biological father is.

"I suspect that the late Charles is just someone they made up to con me out of my money."

Quinn shot me a meaningful look and agreed to my request solemnly.

After leaving the law firm, I went to a bank nearby right away.

I froze and transferred all the savings under my name.

Not only was I determined to win this battle, but I would make sure they paid a heavy price for what they had done.

…

My acting was flawless over the past three days.

I went to work like usual and ate the food Matthew prepared for me.

Even when Rosalie came to my house with Zachary, I happily gave him some candy.

Matthew thought I had accepted the fact that he had given the subsidized apartment to Rosalie, so he started pushing my limits.

"Lyn, Rosalie said there isn't a decent kitchen hood in the apartment. Can you ask your company's logistics department to install a new one?"

I watched how entitled he was acting. Then, I swallowed the food. "The application is going to take forever. I'll pay and hire someone to install one tomorrow."

Matthew's eyes lit up instantly. "Dear, I know you've always been considerate."

He walked up to me and wanted to hug me, but I dodged him while tidying up the table.

…

The next afternoon, Quinn called me and revealed, "I've sent the legal notice to Matthew's department."

Quinn spoke in a fast and steady manner. "I sent it directly to the superior of his department and disciplinary unit.

"I've requested him to stop occupying the subsidized house and return the 380 thousand dollars he had obtained illegally."

I stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the office. "Alright."

In less than an hour, my phone blew up with calls from Matthew.

I muted my phone and flipped it over on the desk.

After work, I deliberately stayed in the office for another half an hour.

When I opened the door to my house, I was greeted with a mess in the living room.

Matthew kept pacing around the living room like a raging lion.

As soon as he saw me, he dashed toward me. "Lynette, are you out of your mind?"

He was holding the crinkled legal notice. "Did you send this to my department? My superior was looking at me as if I were a thief today! Do you know that?"

I changed into my slippers and hung my bag on the rack. "You forged my signature, took away my apartment, and stole my savings. Isn't that what a thief would do?"

"I only want to repay Charles so that he can rest in peace!" he bellowed frantically, almost spitting his saliva all over my face.

"Not only are you making things hard for Rosalie and her son, but you're also ruining my future! Lynette, are you heartless?"

As I watched him act self-righteous, I walked toward the coffee table and took out my phone. Then, I connected it to the speakers through Bluetooth.

Then, I pressed the play button.

Rosalie's soft yet scheming voice instantly echoed through the living room. "Lyn is making a lot of money. This means nothing to her. Now that we have the rent of the shop, I can ease your burden a little."

Matthew's voice rang out after that. "She's such a prideful person. As long as I bring up Charles…

"Her money is also mine. Don't worry and just keep the money."
