I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Bianca Chaucer’s intentions were clear, she was testing Terrence Sterling’s feelings.

She wanted to arrange a marriage between the two families.

In order to find a suitor for her daughter, Bianca Chaucer had been observing, and only Terrence Sterling seemed suitable, and completely worthy of her daughter.

Terrence Sterling had very few scandals, anyone who wanted to climb into Terrence Sterling’s bed was dealt with by him.

This was what pleased Bianca Chaucer the most, he was virtuous and loyal, she could entrust her daughter to him with peace of mind.

What’s more, Bianca Chaucer’s daughter was also very satisfied with Terrence Sterling.

Terrence Sterling’s face showed no expression, his voice deep and melodic: “I haven’t considered it at the moment.”

A blunt refusal.

Bianca Chaucer didn’t push for a match between her daughter and Terrence Sterling, she had chosen him as a son-in-law, but she also hoped that the two young people would have mutual feelings for each other.

If there were no mutual feelings, marriage would be difficult to sustain.

“Thank you for your concern, my grandmother is doing well,” Terrence Sterling replied politely, changing the subject, “Bianca, how do you feel about the new energy project?”

“This is a trend, with great prospects. Let’s talk about it in the office…”

The elevator opened, Bianca Chaucer led Terrence Sterling into the office.

Meanwhile, downstairs in the interview area, Meredith had been waiting in line for a long time before it was finally her turn.

The interviews in this round were very quick, some people came out after just a few minutes.

Meredith, with experience in the workplace, felt a bit nervous seeing previous candidates coming out so quickly.

When it was Meredith’s turn, she entered and handed her resume to the interviewer, saying calmly, “Hello, I am Meredith Florrick…”

The interviewers were all busy screening through resumes, not even looking at Meredith.

One of the interviewers interrupted Meredith, “What was your previous job? Why are there gaps in your resume? Explain briefly.”

Meredith didn’t include her work experience at Sterling Corporation in her resume, the time there was too short, and she couldn’t write that she left due to conflicts with her boss, so she omitted that part.

Information travels fast in the human resources department now, Meredith was worried about being found out to have worked at Sterling Corporation, so she honestly said, “My previous job was at Sterling Corporation, I worked in the Secretary’s Office.”NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

When the interviewers heard the words Sterling Corporation, they exchanged looks and became interested.

They asked, “A big company like Sterling Corporation, many people would do anything to get in, why did you leave? What was the reason for leaving?”

In the workplace, telling the truth meant going home empty-handed.

Meredith made up a serious face, “Because… of family reasons, my parents fell ill and no one was available to take care of them. I had to resign to take care of them, but now my parents are fine, Falconer Holdings is the company I have always dreamed of, I admire Mrs. Chaucer…”

First, she played the sympathy card, then she flattered, Meredith told a lie with a straight face. She didn’t even know who her biological parents were, so she silently apologized in her heart.

With so many job seekers, the interviewers wouldn’t spend too much time on Meredith. After a brief interview, they said, “Wait for our response.”

Translation: The implication of “waiting for our response” was that she had been eliminated.

Disheartened, Meredith left the interview room and saw Rick waving to her from the other end of the hallway.

Meredith walked over, surprised, “Mr. Shepard, what are you doing here?”

Rick was here, does that mean Terrence Sterling… he’s here too?

As expected, Rick said, “I followed Mr. Sterling over here for business. Miss Florrick, are you not planning to return to Sterling Corporation?”

Meredith felt a bit awkward. She had just left Sterling Corporation and now she was interviewing at Falconer Holdings, and she was seen by her former boss’s secretary. Could it get any more awkward than this?

“Mr. Shepard, what is said cannot be unsaid,” Meredith said, “I really appreciate your concern.”

Rick smiled, “I didn’t do much, you were the first one to stand up to Mr. Sterling, and he called to ask you to come back. It shows that you are important to Mr. Sterling. Miss Florrick, won’t you reconsider?”

Meredith shook her head, “No, thank you for your kindness.”

With Fiona and Terrence Sterling’s relationship involved, she had promised not to have any more dealings with Terrence Sterling, so she wouldn’t go back.
