HE WAS FIRED AS “USELESS INTERN”… THEN HE BOUGHT THE COMPANY IN 24 HOURS
## CHAPTER 1: “YOU’RE FIRED, LOSER”

“Security. Get him out.”
The words hit me like a slap.
I stood in the glass boardroom, holding the project files I had finished at 3 a.m.
My boss, Richard Hale, didn’t even look at me.
Just leaned back.
Smirking.
“You really thought you mattered here?”
Laughter erupted around the table.
“Interns these days are hilarious.”
My face burned.
“I’m not an intern,” I said quietly.
Richard waved his hand.
“Same thing. Disposable.”
That word hit harder than anything else.
Disposable.
He tapped the table.
“You’re fired. Effective immediately.”
Someone laughed.
“Bro’s life just ended.”
I looked around.
No one cared.
Not a single person.
Then I asked one question.
“Do you know what I uploaded last night?”
Richard rolled his eyes.
“I don’t care.”
Big mistake.
Because I smiled.
May you like
And walked out.
