Vivaldi and a Boy, by Paritosh Chandra Dugar

Vivaldi, a well known philanthropist and business magnate, funded the poor boy’s education. The boy’s brilliance attracted many companies and businessmen with offers of lucrative jobs. The boy accepted one. His initial emoluments were likely to be more than a million pounds a year. His employer asked him to sign a deal which required him to steal some secret information related to his benefactor’s business. The boy agreed. Someone leaked the deal. Stung by the deception, Vivaldi withdrew his support to the boy. Perhaps, a proverb could have saved the boy!
