Stopped Saving My Backstabbing Intern

Chapter 1

The client came all the way from Germany to negotiate a major partnership, but my junior assistant, Chloe, proposed changing the dinner venue from a five-star hotel to a sketchy roadside food stall.

I tried to stop her, but when my warnings were ignored, I quietly went behind her back to swap the exotic, sketchy organ dishes on her menu for local comfort foods that would actually suit German tastes.

The deal went through smoothly, but Chloe ended up crying to the board, accusing me of playing dirty and intentionally trying to humiliate her.

My fiancé blamed me for bullying the "helpless intern," the board accused me of being arrogant, and the entire staff turned on me like a pack of wolves.

I was forced out of the company I built, lost everything overnight, and became a public enemy on social media.

After throwing myself off the roof of our headquarters, I woke up. I had traveled back in time.

Looking at the intern who was currently pitching her "brilliant" idea in front of me, I smiled and nodded.

"Whatever you say, Chloe. We’ll do it your way."
