I Slept with My Boss and Ran Away

Mrs. Sterling’s arrival not only surprised Meredith but also left Bianca and Joy Chaucer completely bewildered.

The fact that Mrs. Sterling knew Meredith was even more shocking to both of them.

How did Mrs. Sterling know Meredith?

Bianca quickly got up and approached her. “Mrs. Sterling, what brings you here?”

Meredith was puzzled. Was Mrs. Sterling looking for Mrs. Chaucer?

Just who is Mrs. Sterling, and how does she know Mrs. Chaucer?

Mrs. Sterling kept holding Meredith’s hand and said, “You must be Bianca. I came to see Charlotte, your daughter. She’s so pretty, I like her. I wanted to ask when she’s marrying Terry. They’re not kids anymore.”

It was then that Meredith realized Mrs. Sterling was confused again.

Bianca also understood. Mrs. Sterling was suffering from Alzheimer’s. Charlotte was the name they had initially given their daughter, so she must be confused.

Bianca explained, “Mrs. Sterling, she’s not my daughter. She’s my employee. This is my daughter, Joy.”

Bianca motioned for Joy Chaucer to come over and greet Mrs. Sterling.

Joy Chaucer approached politely and addressed her as “Grandma Sterling.”

Mrs. Sterling’s gaze briefly met Joy Chaucer’s, but her aged hand continued to clutch onto Meredith’s, as she smiled and said, “Bianca, are you teasing me? Are you testing my familiarity with Charlotte? I am not confused. This is Charlotte. Just look at her. She looks so much like her grandfather, especially her nose and eyes.”

Upon hearing this, Bianca instinctively glanced at Meredith and surprisingly saw a resemblance to her deceased father.

Mrs. Sterling added, “And she looks like you too. How could I be mistaken?”

Meredith felt a bit embarrassed and chuckled, “Madam, you’ve mistaken me for someone else.”

Seeing Mrs. Sterling mistake Meredith for her, Joy Chaucer’s expression turned unfriendly.

Meredith felt unjustly accused. Mrs. Sterling had Alzheimer’s, so why was she being blamed?

This was the first time Bianca had heard someone say Meredith resembled her. She had been thinking the same thing before.

Bianca admired Meredith’s mannerisms and behavior, so there was a resemblance. However, she was certain Joy Chaucer was her daughter, and Mrs. Sterling was just confused.

Bianca smiled and explained, “Mrs. Sterling, you’ve made a mistake. This is Meredith, my employee. The other one is my daughter, Joy.”

Bianca reiterated her explanation.

Mrs. Sterling still insisted, “No, this is Charlotte. Bianca, how could you be more confused than me? You can’t even recognize your own daughter.”

Bianca felt embarrassed and didn’t want to argue with Mrs. Sterling. Joy Chaucer, however, was upset and told Meredith, “What are you waiting for? Leave now.”

Meredith withdrew her hand from Mrs. Sterling’s and said to Bianca, “Mrs. Chaucer, I’ll leave now.”This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Bianca nodded, and Meredith left.

Mrs. Sterling was reluctant to let her go and wanted to follow her, but Bianca stopped her, saying, “Mrs. Sterling, does Stella know about you being here? Running off like this will make them worry.”

“I snuck out. It’s all Terry’s fault for not bringing Charlotte back, so I came on my own,” Mrs. Sterling replied.

“Mrs. Sterling, you’re acting like a child. I’ll call them right now so they won’t worry,” Bianca smiled and asked Joy Chaucer to accompany Mrs. Sterling.

Joy Chaucer was not very willing and muttered, “Mom, Mrs. Sterling’s Alzheimer’s has gotten so bad, she can’t recognize anyone. How can she mistake Meredith for me? And as for Meredith, she’s not even worthy of…”

Bianca’s expression turned unhappy, “Joy, how can you say such things? She’s your Grandma Sterling, and you should show her respect. Besides, Meredith is an excellent worker. If you were half as good as her, I’d be happy.”
