When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 946 A Friend Of Meredith

News reached Cecilia quite rapidly, leaving her somewhat distressed.

If she had the chance to meet with Aubree, she was certain she could persuade her to sign the contract. However, she couldn’t even secure a meeting now, no wonder Miranda had asked her to come.

The receptionist advised, “You should go back, our boss doesn’t meet with just any staff. You, being from Rainsworth Group, should know this. Why did they send you here?”

“Perhaps we thought she would make an exception,” Cecilia responded.

The receptionist, motivated by the money, informed Cecilia, Just so you know, it’s not that Ms. Hardy doesn’t value you. When Ms. Miranda from Rainsworth Group visited, even she struggled to get a moment with Ms. Hardy. The thing is, the few times Ms. Hardy did see her, that Miranda was thoroughly humiliated.”

Upon hearing these words, Cecilia couldn’t help but feel a hint of amusement. So it turned out that Miranda had also been humiliated.

“Thank you for sharing this with me.”

1 trust in your honesty, go home.”

“No way, if I go back now without signing the contract, I’m sure to get fired,” Cecilia said, putting on at pitiful face.

The receptionist was starting to feel sympathetic. “What should we do then? Do you know anyone in a higher position who could help?”

This statement served as a reminder to Cecilia.

After expressing her gratitude, Cecilia took a moment to look into Aubree’s connections. Once she did, a. very familiar name popped up.

Meredith!

She was Conrad’s stepmother from the kindergarten. This was because her husband had a child with someone else besides herself.

After Cecilia indirectly caused the mistress to leave Tudela, it eventually led to an unexpected friendship with Meredith. The two even became close enough to add each other on WhatsApp.

Having realized that Meredith might know Aubree, Cecilia immediately sent a text to Meredith: Meredith, do you know Ms. Hardy from Hardy Group

It wasn’t long before a response came through.

Meredith: Do we know each other? Yes, we are friends. Why?

Friend…

Cecilia hadn’t expected Meredith and Aubree to be friends, which would make things even easier to handle.

She roughly informed Meredith about her situation here.

Meredith: Take it easy. Ceci. Fll have Aubree come down to see you right away. That’s just the way she is.

Cecilia: Thank you.

Meredith: There’s no need for formalities between us. If theres anything I can help with, just let me know.

After Meredith finished typing, she immediately called Aubree.

Over there, Aubree had just wrapped up her conversation with a client. Upon seeing a call from Meredith, she immediately stepped outside to answer.

“Meredith, what’s up?”Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

“Downstairs, there’s a secretary from Rainsworth Group, who’s a friend and benefactor of mine, named Cecilia. She has been waiting for you, aren’t you going to meet her?” Meredith got straight to the point.

Upon hearing that Cecilia was a friend of Meredith, Aubree didn’t inquire further. “All right,” she said, “I’ll go right now.”

In less than a few minutes, the receptionist, who initially thought it would be impossible for Cecilia to preet her boss, saw Aubree personally come down.

“Cecilia?”

Upon seeing that Cecilia was alone downstairs, Aubree inquired.

“It’s me, Ms. Hardy, hello.” Cecilia responded with an easy confidence, not at all like a mere employee.

“Oh dear, I’m sorry, I wasn’t aware you’re a friend of Meredith. Come, let’s go upstairs, we can chat there.” Aubree’s face was filled with warmth, not at all resembling the fierce tigress the employees perceived her to be.

The receptionist was completely taken aback.

She felt a tinge of regret for treating Cecilia poorly and accepting her monetary gift just now.

She won’t report me to Ms. Hardy and get me fired, will she?
