Semua Bab I Became My Ex’s New Boss: Bab 1 - Bab 10

The private room went silent instantly.Cole Chapman, my ex-boyfriend, was stunned. A second later, he clutched his stomach and burst out laughing.“Luna, have you lost your mind from scrubbing dishes?”He pointed at me as tears of laughter rolled down his cheeks.“You? The daughter of a billionaire? Your dad bought out a multinational corporation?“If you were some billionaire’s daughter, why would you have worked for a few dollars an hour washing greasy plates in a restaurant?“If you were really that rich, why couldn’t you even afford a decent winter coat while saving up for my tuition?“Stop being ridiculous!”The surrounding classmates joined in the laughter.“Luna, that’s a bold lie. Careful. Don’t bite off more than you can chew.”“Exactly. Cole is a biotech expert now. He’s just been hired back to the country by the Genesis Group with a high salary.”“Do you even know how much Genesis Group is worth? You say your dad bought it. What’s next? Are you going to tell me

Cole frowned and instinctively pulled out his phone.“Who’s emailing at this hour?”He casually swiped open the screen.In the next second, panic flashed in his eyes.His previously smug expression instantly vanished.His jaw hung open, and he was speechless.Wanda also read the email sent to her.Her Hermes bag fell to the floor with a loud thud.“H-How is this possible?” she shrieked.The classmates around them had no idea what was happening and crowded in to look.There on Cole’s phone screen was a conspicuous company-wide announcement pinned in Microsoft Teams with a bold red banner.[Sender: Genesis Group Board of Directors.[Subject: Urgent: Notice of Equity Change and Personnel Restructuring.]First line of the body, in bold black font.[Effective immediately, Genesis Group has been fully acquired by Lynch Group.[Ms. Luna Lynch is hereby appointed as the new CEO of Genesis Group, with full authority over all company matters.]The room fell into dead silence.Ev

I pointed at Cole, then at Wanda.“These two have completely ruined my appetite. From now on, I don’t want to see them anywhere near any Lynch Group property.”Arthur immediately straightened his back and ordered the security guards, “Did you hear that? Throw these two out for me! Permanently blacklist them!”Although the security guards had not fully understood the situation yet, they did not dare to disobey Arthur’s order.The same group of security guards who were trying to kick me out was approaching Cole and Wanda. “Don’t touch me! I’m a director at Genesis Group!”Cole was still making his last desperate struggle.“I want to see the CEO of Genesis Group! There must be a misunderstanding!”Wanda was even more shrill with her screams.“Let go of me! My dad is Mr. William Quinn! How dare you lay a hand on me?!”I watched them coldly.“Cole, weren’t you the one who just said you’d have the security guards drag me out? Right back at you.”The security guards did not hold

“You’re planning to sell this junk to PrimeTech Enterprise? Fine. Go ahead and sell it. I should be thanking you for doing my dirty work against the competition.”Cole’s face turned pale.“No... that’s not possible… That’s the core database. I have clearance for it.”“Your clearance?” I mocked.“Sure, Mr. Quinn gave you high-level access on your first day. But the real core system has always been physically disconnected. What you got your hands on was just surface-level scraps. Did you actually think you were some irreplaceable genius? You’re just a joke to real tech experts.”He suddenly stood up and lunged at me.“Luna! You set me up! You had this planned all along, didn’t you?”My guards reacted quickly. They slammed him down onto the table.Cole continued to scream as his face pressed against the cold conference table.“Luna! You can’t do this to me! I came back to this country for you. I worked hard just to make you regret losing me! How can you be so heartless?!”I appr

Cole smiled smugly.“Don’t worry about that. All you need to know is that if this photo gets out, your dad’s reputation as the richest man in the city will be ruined.“Lynch Group’s stock will take a hit, too. When that happens, don’t expect to keep your seat as CEO.”He placed his phone on the table and lightly tapped the screen with his finger.“My demands are simple. Drop the charges against me, and give me fifty million dollars. Arrange for me to go abroad to a place where no one knows me too.”I listened quietly to his demands.“Fifty million? That’s pretty greedy of you.”“What’s that kind of money compared to Lynch Group’s reputation?”He thought he had me under his thumb.“Luna, I know you’re rich. Paying your way out of trouble is a pretty good deal for you.”I picked up my coffee and took a sip.“The woman in the photo is my aunt.”Cole’s smile froze on his face.“Wh-What?!”“I said, that’s my aunt.”I put down my coffee cup and looked at him.“Cole, before yo
