All Chapters of They Stole My Seat, So I Took Everything: Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

By the time I returned to my office to pack my things, the elders were already waiting for me at the door.Jack tossed a tablet onto my desk."Give me all the files for the North Sea route, especially the customs contacts and the steps for getting inspections waived."James spoke up next. "The Swiss bank credit lines have to be handed over as well. I want every manager's private number, every renewal date, and all the guarantee documents. Don't leave anything out."Bruno acted as if his demand was completely reasonable."Those union people only take your calls. Write down what they really want and anything we can use against them. You can't just leave and dump this mess on us, right?"I looked up at them."Didn't you say you were the ones doing all the work and that I was just taking the credit?"Jack's face stiffened for a moment, but he quickly became defensive again."Work is work. You handled these things for seven years. Of course you need to hand everything over properly."I open

The next morning, I was in a project meeting when calls from the Cavinas started coming in one after another.The first problem was the customs declaration.Jack had reused last year's codes and declared the controlled materials as normal industrial solvents. As soon as the declaration was submitted, customs flagged it and moved the entire shipment to Inspection Warehouse Three.He immediately blamed the subordinate who had filed the declaration.The man pulled out a confirmation slip with Jack's signature on it."The risk page warned us that the codes had changed. You told me to ignore it."Jack tore the slip to pieces right there."Emily must have put the wrong codes in the files on purpose!"The second problem was the union.The workers Bruno found at the last minute weren't certified to handle dangerous materials. During loading, one of them knocked over a crate. The port union immediately ordered everyone to stop working because Cavina had broken its safety agreement.Bruno went t

On the day of the hearing, almost everyone in the Cavinas was there.The port authority had called the emergency hearing. Representatives from the bank, the union, and the Five Families were also there to decide who was responsible and whether the Cavinas would be allowed to keep operating at the port.Enzo sat at the head of the table, while Vivian stood behind him as the new council secretary.Luca accused me in front of everyone of leaking the shipping route and putting false declaration codes in the handover files on purpose.Jack, James, and Bruno spoke against me one after another."Emily always kept the important work to herself. We had no way of knowing what she had secretly changed.""She used the Medici name to make the bank and the union do what she wanted. Then she deliberately took away her connections to get revenge on the Cavinas.""Those deals always belonged to the family. She just took credit for everyone else's work."Vivian even gave the same story to the media.Wit

After the Cavinas lost their right to operate at the port, the family's money dried up within a month.Three months later, the court officially ended my marriage to Enzo. The evidence of his affair, his plan to remove me, and the fake evidence he had created were more than enough.But this time, I had nothing to do with what happened to any of them.They all paid for their own choices.Jack lost his position in the Five Families because of the false declarations, fake cargo documents, and port money he had secretly taken over the years. All the enemies he had made quickly came after him, and this time, no one stayed up all night trying to save him.James had hidden risks from the bank and taken money that wasn't his. Everything he owned was seized. He used to think refinancing only took a phone call. In the end, one contract clause he had never bothered to read cost him everything.Bruno was banned from the union for life. Without workers, a dock, or the Cavina Family behind him, even
