裏切り

38歳の真面目な日本人女性、遥は、小さなIT企業に転職を決めた。かつての上司に誘われ、給与アップ、リモートワーク可能、そして新たなチャレンジとしてプリセールスの職種を経験できるという条件が魅力だった。

　入社してすぐに、彼女は一人の美しい中国人女性、麗華と出会う。麗華は32歳で総務を担当していたが、その風貌は一般的なOLとはかけ離れていた。スレンダーな体型に派手な化粧、ブランド物の服を身に纏い、どこかホステスのような雰囲気を漂わせていた。人懐っこく接するが、その笑顔の裏に何か隠されているような気配があった。

　しかし、遥にとって衝撃だったのは入社直後の出来事だった。本来プリセールスを担当するはずだったが、急遽PM業務を任されることに。しかも、それが1年間続いた。やっと本来の業務に戻れるかと思った矢先、信じられないことが起きた。

　麗華がプリセールスに就任したのだ。

　彼女は今までずっと総務の仕事しかしていない。それなのに、なぜ急にプリセールスを任されたのか。答えは明白だった。

　麗華は社長と特別な関係を築いていた。個別に食事へ行き、ゴルフのレッスン代を出してもらい、特別待遇を受けていた。遥の目には、それがあからさまな贔屓にしか見えなかった。そして、麗華は遥のポジションを奪うために、社長に彼女の悪口を吹き込んでいたのだ。

　「遥さんって、マネージャーに向いていないと思いますよ。」

　そう告げ口し、社長の耳に入れることで自分の立場を確保した。そして、その結果がこの配置転換だった。

　麗華はプリセールスの仕事が全くできなかった。当然のことだ。提案書の作成やクライアント対応など、遥がこれまで培ってきた経験とは無縁の存在だった。結果的に、彼女が任された業務のほとんどを、遥がゴーストライターとして代わりにこなすことになった。

　それなのに、新体制が発表されると、麗華は態度を豹変させた。

　今までフレンドリーに話しかけていたのに、突然遥を避けるようになり、まるで自分が上の立場になったとでも思っているかのようだった。そして、遥は夜22時まで働き、3ヶ月間、子供と平日にまともに食事をとることすらできなくなった。それほどまでに会社に尽くしていたのに、この仕打ち。

　遥はかつての上司に訴えたが、彼も社長には逆らえず、「折を見て考える」と言ったきり何の対応もしなかった。

　この会社に未来はない。

　遥は決意した。

　この会社を辞め、新たな環境で成功を掴むのだ。そして、自分の努力を踏みにじるような人間たちを見返してやると、固く誓った。

Betrayal in Our Business Promise

A diligent 38-year-old Japanese woman was invited by her former boss to join a small IT company.

She had previously worked at major Japanese corporations, global enterprises, Japanese startups, and mid-sized publicly listed companies. She wanted this to be her final career move. After all, she had a young child and needed a stable lifestyle.

The offer seemed attractive:

• Several former colleagues had already joined the company, providing familiar faces.

• A salary increase.

• Remote work was allowed.

• A chance to transition into pre-sales, a role she had always wanted to try. (Although she had been an engineer, she had written proposals before, and her positive mindset was deemed suitable for sales.)

• She would be a one-person department, effectively acting as a manager.

The salary increase was tempting, but work-life balance was her priority. Raising a two-year-old while working meant that remote work was the most critical condition for her.

"The working hours are long, but oh well."

With that lighthearted thought, she accepted the offer.

Upon joining, she met a stunningly beautiful and friendly Chinese woman from the administration department. She was 32, single, and dating a Japanese man who was currently stationed overseas.

Her aura wasn’t that of an ordinary office worker. She exuded an air of wealth, resembling a high-class hostess. She had a slender figure, wore heavy makeup, and always dressed stylishly. Her wardrobe seemed endless.

Shortly after joining, the project manager she was supposed to work with resigned, and she was forced to take over as PM.

"Wait, wasn’t I supposed to do pre-sales?"

But she tolerated it, thinking it was only for a few months.

Then, she was assigned to another project. One year passed, and she never got the chance to do pre-sales as initially promised.

And then, the Chinese woman from administration was suddenly appointed as the pre-sales representative.

How? She had only ever worked in administration.

She, on the other hand, had 12 years of experience as an engineer and had been actively involved in proposal drafting. Yet, an inexperienced beauty was given the role instead.

The company’s CEO was also Chinese.

Rumors swirled that the Chinese woman had private meetings with the CEO, dined with him, and even had her golf lessons paid for by him.

It was clear—she had taken my role.

And yet, because she lacked the necessary skills, I was the one secretly writing the proposals.

This woman was calculating, manipulative, and ruthless.

Before the new structure was announced, she had been overly friendly, always chatting with her. But the moment she got the role, she stopped speaking to her altogether.

Later, she discovered that the Chinese woman had been badmouthing her to the CEO, complaining about her grievances toward the company. She even argued that she was more suitable for the pre-sales role than her.

She worked until 10 PM every night.

For three months, she couldn’t have dinner with her child on weekdays.

She even worked on weekends.

And yet, this was the reward she received?

She appealed to the boss who had recruited her, but he was powerless against the CEO.

"I’ll think about it at the right time," he said, but nothing happened.

She made up her mind to leave.

And this time, she vowed to build her own success—on her own terms.
