Corporate Math: Negative Commission

Corporate Math: Negative Commission

After half a month of nonstop overtime, I secured a contract worth over ten million, pulling the company back from the brink of collapse. My boss, Richard Gray, was overjoyed. At the celebration party, he called me the pillar of the company and announced that he would reward me with a bonus. However, when the end of the month came, and I opened my payslip, I froze. Negative 250 dollars. A negative commission? I actually owed the company 250 dollars? I immediately called the finance department, asking if there was a mistake on my payslip. They replied, "No mistake. This is the cost calculation formula that Mr. Gray personally instructed us to use. He said you'd understand once you saw it." I went straight to Richard for an explanation. He laughed. "The contract that you signed, after factoring in the concessions, upfront resources, and hidden expenses, left the company with a net loss of 150 thousand. Since the loss was due to your personal decisions, you're responsible for five percent. That totals to 7500. "Considering how hard you worked, we deducted it from your base salary first. But your salary wasn't enough, so you still owe the company 250. Don't worry. The company treats its employees well. We'll write that off." Soon after, he awarded 100 thousand dollars to the newly arrived intern. I watched the newcomer, probably connected to Richard, cheerfully treat the entire company to dinner with her bonus, and something inside me just snapped. From that day onward, I did the bare minimum. I clocked in. I clocked out. Nothing more. Later, when a critical project went catastrophically wrong and the company faced a colossal compensation demand, Richard came begging me to fix it. I just smiled and said, "Sorry, Mr. Gray. I've already resigned. If there are any problems, you can ask the intern who got the 100 thousand dollar bonus to handle it."

 After Rebirth, Our Love Ends Here

After Rebirth, Our Love Ends Here

On the way home for the holidays, my wife, Sophie Hartman, and I were caught in a terrible accident. When I opened my eyes again, we had both gone back in time to before we ever fell in love. In our previous life, we'd been married for seven years. We were polite, respectful, and distant, almost like guests sharing the same house. And all those years, she never once agreed to have a child with me. It wasn't until later that I learned the truth. Sophie had never let go of the man she once loved. This time, I chose to set her free. We quietly deleted each other's contacts, kept our distance, and walked separate paths in life. … Seven years later, she became one of the most successful traders. At a class reunion, she announced her relationship with Vincent Parker, the man she had never forgotten. When she saw that I was still single, she couldn't resist teasing me. "Lucas, I know I've always been the one you love most, the one you're proudest of, but you don't have to spend your life waiting for me." I didn't respond. I simply took my son's hand. Sophie's face went pale. Her eyes reddened as she demanded, "You said you'd love me for life, that you'd only ever have children with me!"

L'amour, Pluie de Pétales

« Madame Dubois, êtes-vous sûre de vouloir changer votre nom ? Après le changement, tous vos diplômes, documents et passeport devront être mis à jour. » Sophie a hoché la tête : « Oui, j'en suis sûre. » L'employée essayait encore de la convaincre : « C'est assez compliqué de changer de nom à l'âge adulte, et puis votre nom actuel est si joli. Vous ne voulez pas y réfléchir encore un peu ? » « Ce n'est pas nécessaire. » Sophie a signé le formulaire de consentement : « Merci. » « Très bien, donc le nouveau nom que vous avez choisi est... Céleste, c'est bien ça ? » « Oui, c'est ça. » Céleste, comme s'envoler vers le ciel.

Switched at Birth

Switched at Birth

My best friend Sophie and I went into labor the very same night. I watched her switch out the two infants with my own eyes, but I did not tell a single soul. For the next decade, I fed, clothed, and raised a daughter that was not mine. On the day the two girls turned eighteen, they received their college offer letters at the same time. One got into an ivy league school, and the other, a community college whose name I had not even heard of. I had never seen Sophie so happy in my entire life. Grinning from ear to ear, she whipped out the DNA report she had been saving for this very moment. "Thank you for raising my daughter to be the valedictorian that she is today. It's time she returns to her mama. As for this good-for-nothing scum… You can take her back!" I sneered. "Very well then." She had no idea what was coming.

My Sister’s Instagram

My Sister’s Instagram

While negotiating the terms of a project, a client pressured me into downing a large glass of liquor. While I was washing my face in the restroom, I saw my younger sister’s latest Instagram post. [Low salary? What of it? My parents will always support me!] Above the caption was a photo of a property deed with her name on it, along with a message from our parents. [Mom and Dad will always be your safety net!] It was in a newly developed residential complex. It was also the very neighborhood I had been desperately saving up for a downpayment to buy a home in. At that moment, a torrent of complex emotions washed over me. I splashed my face with water. After clearing my head, I sent a message to my manager, Mr. Jenkins. [I’m willing to take on that overseas project you mentioned.]

Der Verrat des Geliebten

Der Verrat des Geliebten

Mein Ehemann Tobias Schmidt liebte mich abgöttisch. Alle sagten, er sei der perfekte Ehemann. Doch er hatte mich dreimal verraten. Das erste Mal war vor drei Jahren. Sein bester Freund Lukas Klein starb, um ihn zu retten. Ohne mein Wissen heiratete Tobias Lukas’ Freundin Sophie Lange. Völlig gebrochen wollte ich gehen. Noch in derselben Nacht brachte er Sophie außer Landes, kniete dann vor mir nieder und flehte verzweifelt: „Mia, Lukas ist meinetwegen gestorben. Ich muss mich um seine Witwe kümmern. Diese Heiratsurkunde ist nur eine Absicherung für Sophie. Sobald ich Lukas’ Tod gerächt habe, werde ich mich von ihr scheiden lassen! Die Einzige, die ich liebe, bist du!“ Diesmal verzieh ich ihm. Ein Jahr später verkündete Tobias auf einer Pressekonferenz öffentlich, dass Sophie die Ehefrau des Familienoberhaupts sei. Er erklärte mir: „Sophie ist die einzige Tochter der Mafiafamilie Lange. Durch unsere Allianz wollen wir Lukas’ Tod rächen! Ich habe mit ihr vereinbart, dass wir uns scheiden lassen, sobald wir die Mörder zur Strecke gebracht haben – dann heirate ich dich sofort!“ Und ich glaubte ihm wieder. Vor einem Jahr wurde er auf einem Empfang unter Drogen gesetzt und verbrachte eine Nacht mit Sophie. Er verschwieg mir die Wahrheit, bis ich ihn vor zwei Wochen zufällig im Krankenhaus sah, wie er sie bei einer Schwangerschaftsuntersuchung begleitete. Er senkte den Kopf, wagte nicht, mich anzusehen, und sagte leise: „Mia, das war ein unglücklicher Zufall. Sobald das Kind da ist, schicke ich sie weg. Meine Eltern werden sich um das Baby kümmern. Sie werden dir niemals begegnen!“ Unter dem Vorwand der Liebe brachte Tobias mich dazu, immer wieder nachzugeben. Doch nun wusste ich, dass es keine Zukunft mehr für uns gab. Es war an der Zeit zu gehen.
