After a contract negotiation fell apart and I was saddled with the blame, I volunteered to be sent to Africa for some “reflection.”
When my CEO wife found out, she flew into a rage. “Why are you, an intern, trying to play the hero?”
In my previous life, thanks to her looking out for me, I not only escaped punishment,
but also got my wish and replaced her childhood sweetheart as the company's CFO.
Then that very afternoon, I was hauled into a police car.
I was accused of embezzling 300 million yuan in compensation meant for laid-off workers,
because my own signature was on the approval line for the payment.
But it should have been on the appointment letter my CEO wife had given me.
I proved my innocence in court,
but the furious family members of the workers stabbed me to death on the spot.
Reborn into a new life, I held on tight to the blame they pinned on me and refused to let go.
They can forget about making me their scapegoat again!
