My Bonus Became a Cash Grab,So I Sent One Transfer and Took Her CompanyChapter 1

I worked myself to the bone for an entire year—nights, weekends, holidays—all for the hundred-thousand-dollar bonus my boss had promised me.

But when bonus day finally arrived, Blair White posted a group collection request in the company chat.

Everyone had to pay a different amount. My share was the highest: a hundred thousand dollars. The exact sum I was supposed to receive.

I messaged Blair privately, asking if there'd been some mistake. Shouldn't the company be paying me, not the other way around?

Her reply came instantly: "The company's hit a rough patch, Bella Lambert. You're one of our founding pillars—you should be setting an example. Even if it means draining your savings, you need to help us weather this storm!"

I laughed. A cold, hollow sound.

Fine. So that's how you want to play it.

That very night, I transferred a hundred thousand dollars to the company operating account, publicly declaring my commitment to stand with the company through thick and thin.

Everyone thought I'd lost my mind. Blair practically choked laughing.

What they didn't understand? The company was about to be mine.
