I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Pregnant with a baby, in the early stages of pregnancy…

These few words stood out conspicuously, and the conference room fell silent as everyone looked at Meredith with curious, judgmental, and disdainful eyes.

Meredith was not married, yet she was pregnant, naturally sparking curiosity about the father of the baby.

Terrence Sterling on the stage looked frighteningly cold, and Meredith dared not even lift her head, quietly shutting off the screen due to nervousness and blushing.

“Meeting adjourned.”

Terrence Sterling’s cold voice echoed through the entire conference room via the microphone: “Miss Florrick, come to my office.”

Leaving these words behind, Terrence Sterling walked past Meredith with his tall figure exuding an irresistible chill.

In that moment of passing by, Meredith instinctively stiffened, her heart racing, and she took a step back to the side.

Once Terrence Sterling walked away, Sasha on the side asked, “Meredith, are you really pregnant?”

Meredith couldn’t possibly answer at that moment with dozens of eyes staring at her.

Feeling embarrassed, Meredith walked out of the conference room and headed to Terrence Sterling’s office.

As she reached the office door, Meredith saw Terrence Sterling slam the files in his hand on the table, making a loud noise.

Meredith’s heart leaped in response, and she bravely walked in, closing the door and curtains. This way, even if Terrence Sterling were to become furious, no one would see her embarrassment.

“Mr. Sterling.”

Approaching Terrence Sterling, Meredith watched as he stood with his back facing her at the French window. As she spoke, he turned around, staring at her sharply, tapping the table with his hand and speaking with anger, “Miss Florrick, what are you doing all day? This is work time, not a place for your romantic fantasies.”

Filled with anger, he knew well that his frustration was not about Meredith’s work mistakes, but about her pregnancy.

This woman, she was pregnant.

A few days ago, Meredith had told him herself that she was single.

“Mr. Sterling, I’m truly sorry.” Knowing her fault, Meredith had an extremely good attitude, listening attentively with her head slightly lowered.

Seeing her submissive demeanor once again, Terrence Sterling became even more frustrated, speaking with a colder tone, “Miss Florrick, I think it’s necessary to seriously consider now whether we can continue to employ you, a person full of lies and no truth, whether you are still suitable to stay here.”

Every word from Terrence Sterling was heavy, and even the employees outside the office could hear his voice.

Many staff members pricked up their ears to hear what was happening inside.

At this, Meredith suddenly raised her head, “Mr. Sterling, let me explain…”

“Is it an explanation from you, or justifying yourself?” Terrence Sterling’s hands rested on the table, a slight sneer on his thin lips, his gaze coldly fixed on her belly, “Single? Then how did the child in your belly come about? Miss Florrick, you’ve only been confirmed for a little over a month, I have reason to suspect that you are deceiving the company, and your employment contract could be voided.”

Terrence Sterling was very angry, being played around by a woman for the first time, seducing him on one hand, and then getting pregnant, it was blatant deception.

Meredith met Terrence Sterling’s cold gaze head-on. Faced with his rage, she became calmer. She wanted to tell him if he knew that the baby in her belly was his.

But she didn’t know how to bring it up.

In Terrence Sterling’s eyes, she had become a woman full of lies.

Bowing deeply to Terrence Sterling, Meredith sincerely apologized, “Mr. Sterling, I’m deeply sorry for disappointing you, I am willing to accept any punishment from the company.”

Originally wanting to explain, Meredith now felt it unnecessary. Whatever she said now, he wouldn’t believe it anymore.

Seeing her unwillingness to explain, a nameless rage surged within Terrence Sterling.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“What? Cat got your tongue?” Terrence Sterling coldly smiled, “Who is the father of the child in your belly? Is it that Justin?”

The thought of Meredith carrying another man’s child in her belly made Terrence Sterling even more restless, even a hint of jealousy crept in, jealous of the man who could allow Meredith to bear a new life.

Meredith shook her head, “No.”
