All Chapters of Showed My Boss by Starting My Company: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

My heart skipped a beat as I quickly returned the call. I thought there was an emergency. When my call got through, Eugene Larson's shrill voice exploded into my ear. "Andrew Sanders! What were you doing last night? Why didn't you pick up my call?! Were you doing something sneaky? Where did you sleep last night? Turn on your location. I'm checking where you are right now! I'm warning you. If I find out you tried to seduce Tina behind my back, I'll tear you apart!"It rendered me speechless to listen to his hysterical accusations. I was the general manager of the company, not his or Tina Kayden's personal secretary. I tried my best to hold in my temper as I replied coldly, "Mr. Larson, I'm not obligated to report my personal schedule and life to you. You can go to Miss Kayden for any inquiries you may have.”"Whatever I do after work is considered my personal time. It's my freedom to be where I want. You have no right to interfere."Eugene scoffed. He said threateningly, "You must

All Eugene did was scoff and reply indignantly, "Can you handle the consequences if I fought with Tina and it affected her work?"This reply rendered me speechless. I had no idea what he was thinking. The way his brain worked was a complete mystery to me. Before I could say another word, Eugene continued being pushy, "Turn on your camera right now! I want to see where you are and who is with you. Get a 360-degree angle of your surroundings clearly!"Frustration filled me to the brim. I clenched my phone and tried to be as patient as possible. "I'm in a meeting, Mr. Larson. Can you stop making a scene? Please contact Miss Kayden if you need anything. I'm just a manager, not a messenger between lovers.""Turn on your camera! Turn it on, and I'll believe you! Otherwise, whatever you tell me is a lie!"I had nothing to hide, so I turned on my camera and aimed it at the door of the meeting room I had just walked out of. "See that? I told you I was in a mee…""Aaaarggghhh! Andrew Sand

The afternoon sun was drooping toward the East when I exited Kent's company. I did not return to the office but headed home instead. It was time to prepare for my resignation. It was only when I entered my house that my tense body started to relax. I sat limply on the sofa and took out my phone to take care of any unread messages regarding work. The first few messages that popped up on my phone screen were from my buddy and colleague, Walter Shore.Walter: [Damn, are you the one that cuckoo boyfriend is talking about in his social media posts?]Walter: [Screenshot]Walter: [Oh my gosh, I have no idea what to say about that cuckoo couple. They keep creating drama. I have a bad feeling that the company will be over without you.]I clicked on the screenshot. It was a photo Eugene had posted on his social media. There were nine pictures in it that consisted of selfies of him and Tina. They were either holding hands or gesturing a heart sign with their hands. The middle picture was a

When news of this spread, everyone was stunned. Some were not happy with the decision but were not brave enough to voice their thoughts. Others just lost hope in the company and started updating their resumes.However, Tina did not care about any of these. All she did was focus on pampering Eugene. He contributed nothing while taking the office of general manager. He would sit limply in his leather chair every day at work to either play mobile games on his phone or watch videos on the computer. He would tend to turn up the volume without caring that his colleagues were still at work.When he was bored out of his mind, he would loiter around the office area to pick on small issues. He would find the intern's computer wallpaper too childish and forced the intern to change it to a wallpaper of pure color by claiming that it affected office morale. The next day, he would complain that the fern on the administrative personnel's table looked like it was dying, and he forced her to throw it

Tina watched as I turned my gaze away from her to continue chatting happily with Kent. The ease and confidence I showed was a side that Tina had never once seen before. That was when she realized that she had never once gotten to know me properly, nor did she understand what she had lost.A year later, Tina finally called me. When I took her call, I was seated behind the table that belonged to the CEO of Sanders Corporation. My fingers brushed against documents that waited for me to approve. I was not surprised to see her name on the phone's screen. Less than half a year after I left, I received news that her company had gone bankrupt. It was just a matter of time before that happened.The voice on the other end of the call sounded tired, as if every ounce of strength had been pulled out of her. "I lost my company, Andrew."My fingers paused in the middle of flipping through the papers. There was no emotion in my voice, "Okay. So, what about it?"There was silence on the other en
