I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Meredith quickly explained, “It wasn’t me. I just brought your mom to the hospital. I have a video to prove it.”

With that, Meredith took out her phone, opened the video, and showed it to Julian Sterling, explaining the situation.

Understanding the whole story, Julian Sterling apologized, “I’m really sorry, young lady, I misunderstood you. Thank you for bringing my mom to the hospital. She’s… having some issues.”

Julian Sterling gestured towards her head.

Seeing Julian Sterling being understanding, Meredith said, “It’s alright. Here are the CT scan results. Your mom doesn’t have any major issues, just a sprained leg.”

“Thank you, thank you.” Julian Sterling expressed his thanks again and pulled out his phone, “Miss, could you tell me your bank account number so I can repay you?”

Meredith had paid for the medical and examination fees. She definitely wanted to recoup her expenses of over two thousand dollars. She couldn’t just let it go.

“Sure, you can transfer it to my phone number. It’s a total of two thousand dollars, and here is the receipt for you to check.”

Julian Sterling didn’t check but thought Meredith was honest and quite likeable. He directly transferred three thousand dollars to her.

Meredith said, “This is too much.”

“You were working, right? You brought my mom to the hospital, which must have delayed your work. The extra money can be considered compensation for loss of work and transportation.” Julian Sterling supported Mrs. Sterling and said to Meredith, “I’ll leave now, young lady. Thank you.”

The explanation made sense, so Meredith did not return the excess amount and accepted it with a clear conscience.

Mrs. Sterling didn’t want to part with Meredith and beckoned to her, “Charlotte, remember to visit me often. If Terry upsets you, remember to find grandma…”

“Mom, who is Charlotte? Your grandson doesn’t even have a girlfriend yet.” Julian Sterling supported Mrs. Sterling and walked outside, “You want him to have a girlfriend. You have to remind him.”

“That’s Charlotte; I won’t be mistaken.” Mrs. Sterling insisted, “I remember we had an engagement with the Chaucer family. Isn’t she their daughter? Charlotte Chaucer.”

Julian Sterling chuckled, “Mom, that’s not Miss Chaucer. How did you manage to sneak out alone? It’s dangerous…”

Mrs. Sterling persisted, “She is their daughter. She looks like her grandfather. I won’t be mistaken.”

Julian Sterling thought Mrs. Sterling was having some kind of episode again and didn’t argue further. He casually followed her words, “Yes, she is the daughter of the Chaucer family.”

Mrs. Sterling immediately became happy, showing off, “I told you, you can’t fool me. You think I’m losing my mind, the daughter of the Chaucer family is so beautiful. Tell Terry to catch up, or he’ll lose her.”

“Alright, alright.” Julian Sterling went along with Mrs. Sterling, “I’ll make sure Terry treats her well and brings her home soon.”

Seeing Mrs. Sterling happy and talking about the daughter of the Chaucer family every day, Julian Sterling remembered the words of his wife, Stella, from the previous night.

Perhaps he could do something.

Julian Sterling took the old lady back to Ravenwood Hall and called his son, “Son, I just brought your grandmother back from the hospital. She went to the city center alone today. Thank goodness a young lady took her to the hospital…”

Terrence Sterling, who had just finished a meeting and returned to the office, tensed up upon hearing the news, “How’s grandmother? What was the maid doing? How could she let grandma go out alone?”

“Your grandmother is fine. She went out to look for Miss Chaucer. She kept mentioning it, asking you to bring Miss Chaucer home.” Julian Sterling explained, “Son, ever since Mr. Chaucer passed away, your grandmother’s mind has been clouded. This is the only thing she regrets. Don’t let her regret it for the rest of her life.”

Terrence Sterling immediately understood Julian Sterling’s implication and his expression turned serious, “Grandma just wants me to have a wife. I’ll bring one for her.”

No matter what this phrase meant to Julian Sterling, it implied something different.

Julian Sterling thought Terrence Sterling had finally come to terms and was willing to marry Miss Chaucer. He was delighted, “That’s good. I won’t disturb your work now. I’ll wait for good news from you.”

After hanging up the phone, Julian Sterling immediately called his wife, Stella, “I just called our son. It seems he also has an interest in the daughter of the Chaucer family. He doesn’t seem opposed to the idea of marriage. He even mentioned bringing that girl home.”
