I Was Replaced

Summary

I stumbled out of the Finance office, my head spinning, my face as white as a sheet.

The woman in Finance said the year-end bonus for "Ava Ross" had already been claimed. The paperwork was signed half an hour ago.

I tried to tell her that I was Ava Ross, but the look she gave me made it clear she thought I was a liar.

I burst out of the office in a daze and ran straight into Mr. Henderson, the head of HR.

He asked me what team I was on, then flatly stated that it was impossible for the company to have two employees named Ava Ross.
