A story that happened at the Ho Chi Minh City court was like a tragicomedy when the defendant, a former beauty queen, told the court details about a "love contract" with the plaintiff, a "tycoon" worth more than ten billion, which changed all the details of the crime, forcing the court to re-investigate.

These two stories seem unrelated, but when you think about it, they are both because of the word “love”. When feelings are influenced by other factors, the emotional bond is no longer effective. Breaking up can be very humane and civilized, but it can also be like a serious crime.
In most European and American countries, for the marriage of people in general, and of famous couples in particular, there are contracts - like a powerful legal document with quite detailed terms, even down to the date and time of "private activities". Therefore, in European and American law, there are crimes of "female raping male", or "husband raping wife".
When love is still "sweet", even if there is a breach of contract, it is only because of "love" that cannot be restrained, even voluntarily "giving everything", "giving everything" without regret. But when "the rice is not good", even if it is just an unintentional breach as an unconscious habit, it can be considered a crime, and can be an aggravating circumstance when deciding that the "love contract" is no longer valid.
With the story of the Hollywood star couple, perhaps due to the pressure from many sides that made them endure beyond their limits, their beautiful love story had to sadly end. They ended it so as not to betray each other, to betray their love, so even though the validity of the "love contract" ended, they are still beautiful in the eyes of their fans.
But with the story that happened in the Ho Chi Minh City court, this belongs to the category of ethics. A "love contract" with the color of money, even if it can be "beautiful", is just a flashy outer shell. When love is valued in money through a contract like a business contract, that love is just lip service, it is difficult to come from the heart to maintain long-term effectiveness.
Love or money, once it expires, will have an unhappy ending. And it will be even more bitter if it ends in a situation where one person is despised by the world, the other is imprisoned and the beauty's life is ruined.
How to make love last forever is an eternal topic that never gets old and never has just one answer./.
