He Exposed Me for Laughs, I Cut Funding의 모든 챕터: 챕터 1 - 챕터 10

I followed Alexis Timmer's finger to see that she was pointing at the trash can. Tossed carelessly into it were the handmade pastries I had brought over last time. Grandma had woken up early in the morning and painstakingly shelled walnuts for hours for me to bake with back then.Now, however, I could see that someone had even spat on them.My mind went blank at the sight.Anthony Scoll walked over and began pushing at my shoulders impatiently to herd me out of his office."Do you have any sense at all? Can't you see that we're in the middle of working on the critical code? And what are you wearing? What if the investor sees you? What would they think then? Hurry up and go home. You'll just humiliate us both if you stay here."I looked Anthony straight in the eyes and said, "Anthony, today's our third wedding anniversary."He paused momentarily before scoffing. "Wedding anniversary? Only people with too much time on their hands like you celebrate those occasions. We're here try

At exactly eleven the next morning, a representative for the investor arrived.Anthony and Alexis eagerly welcomed him outside with sycophantic expressions. As the group headed for the company entrance, Alexis, in her bid to show she was the one in charge, overtook everyone else and rushed to open the door.Plastering a fake professional smile on her face, she gazed right into the facial recognition camera."Beep! Identity confirmed."The next second, the shrill squealing of a pig blared through the door security system. Following that, a female voice, tweaked by a voice changer, spoke in an exaggerated manner. "I'm a pick-me girl! I'm a pick-me girl! All my bros are my groom candidates! I'm the most shameless pick-me in the entire company!"With the volume turned up to the max, the words echoed down the empty corridors deafeningly.The smile on Alexis' face stiffened as she froze on the spot.The representative was stunned.Although Anthony was shocked, he quickly recovered

Instead of signing the divorce agreement, Anthony ripped it to pieces."You want a divorce, huh? Well, you can forget about it!" he shouted. "You think you can kick me out of this marriage with nothing to my name? In your dreams! "For the past three years, I've supported you, paid for your food and living expenses. Now, you're trying to run at the slightest hint of trouble in the company? No way I'm letting you have your way!"His shameless behavior didn't surprise me. I hadn't expected him to sign the divorce papers so easily anyway.Since he had torn up the agreement, I turned and went back to my bedroom, locking it from the inside.The next day, I headed straight to the courthouse to file for divorce.Part of Anthony's startup capital had indeed come from his savings, but most of the cash flow actually came from me secretly investing in his company through various channels.I used an offshore trust fund my mother left for me, routed the money through several shell companies,

Faced with the choice of going to prison or losing his company, Anthony chose the latter and signed the papers.Nonetheless, this didn't mean that he had completely given up. He thought that as long as he remained free and still had the technology, he could always make a comeback. Anything was still possible as long as he wasn't in prison.So he shoved all the blame onto Alexis. He told the police that it was her who instructed him to embezzle the funds, that he had simply been manipulated.Alexis was no pushover either. She provided the police with the chat history and voice recordings between her and Anthony, proving that he was the mastermind.The two wasted no time turning on each other in the police station, thoroughly revealing every little thing the other person had done.In the end, both of them were placed under investigation due to all the evidence they themselves provided on each other.To my surprise, while out on bail pending trial, Anthony actually had the audacity

Three years later, I started up a new tech company. Backed by solid technical expertise and ample funding, it quickly became a unicorn in the industry.I was no longer the housewife who hid behind the scenes, but the CEO of my own company, which was the new rising star in the technological circle. I was also the idol of countless young women.One day, as my company was interviewing applicants for new hires, I happened to be walking by the interview room when a commotion broke out inside."Please, I'm begging you. Just give me a chance! I might have a criminal record, but I really am very capable! I'm one of the original developers for the "PeaceMind" intelligent algorithm!"The voice sounded rather familiar, so I opened the door and entered.What greeted me was the sight of a haggard-looking man in a cheap suit down on his knees as he clung to the interviewer's leg.It was Anthony, who had been released from prison early. Due to good behavior, his sentence had been reduced by a y
