My Free Puppet Betrayed Me

Eight figures!

Thanks to my dad’s VC fund,

that's what my startup, Aetheria, was worth after I graduated.

I’m a total tech geek,

always hated networking and public speaking.

So I pushed my boyfriend, Leo, to be the face of the company.

Big mistake.

The charismatic CEO.

He has been playing that part to the outside world ever since.

Over time, his ego spiraled out of control.

He actually believes this company can't function without him.

All of a sudden, he calls an emergency board meeting.

Saying it’s for "Corporate restructuring."
