The CTO replaced me with his favorite coder, so I let the system prove my worth. – Revenge Story

Elena Goodson built Meridian from the ground up at Saturn Technologies—six months of her life, countless late nights, and meticulous architecture decisions. Then her CTO pulled her off the project 48 hours before launch, replacing her with a younger engineer. What happens next is a masterclass in quiet revenge, strategic thinking, and true vindication.
This is a story about:
✓ Professional betrayal and dismissal
